I am sorry FWP

I like FWP, but I have also been hard on him over the years. I like a power running game, and watching him run for no yards or a 2 yard gain pains me. I know I may be slow for change, but I never really saw progress that made me see change was working. Until today watching how we used Moore, I was drooling. Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled how Moore has played, but think how those plays could have been with FWP. I now blame Arians and the Wiz. They could of used FWP so much better.

Ok, great win!

I know what you mean

I like FWP as much as the next homer (his jersey is the only one i own) but I am curious if we would be better off using Moore instead.
Moore seems to have better vision than Parker and way better balance.
I;m not saying start Moore over Parker but I wonder if we would be more consistent in the running game if we did………………..hmmmm.

hmm

I LOVE MM. Have since Day 1.

BUT, let’s not forget that Parker’s near the top of the league leaders in rushing yards in the past three years. I think we just need to use both, and perhaps Parker will really benefit from having a running mate back there.

Exactlly

We’ve needed to have different styles of runners in there. FWP is great, but is not going to punish defenders and wear them down…unless they get tired from chasing him ;) – MM seems to be more of that syle of power runner.
