Keeping Montgomery and/or Cobb in the backfield (I seem to remember one snap where they both were there) is cute, but someone please refresh my memory...has anything good ever happened from that set? IMO Montgomery looks out of his element back there and Cobb doesn't have the acceleration he used to have. Neither one of them looks much like Darren Sproles.
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Last year it was a new wrinkle that looked like it had potential. Not so much this year.Originally Posted by Maxie the Taxi
Some pre-draft summaries pegged Montgomery as having more potential as a running back than as a WR, but I agree he looks uncomfortable there this year so far.
Yeah, maxie, might be good to see Montgomery at rb. We have a lot of WRs. Let's give it a try.

I've been asking for a scat back for years; we don't value them.
We had CJ Spiller in for workout after he was cut.
He left GB, went to Seattle, and they closed the deal and signed him
We just have never been deep there.
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
We have one this year, Starks.

Can you say "scatological"?

Life's not fair.
I have a friend who went to work in a factory straight outta high school. "Nothin' wrong with that," said I. "A working class hero...(see Kap thread in FYI)
I'm not going to stop the wheel. I'm going to break the wheel.
So Lacy is 50/50 at best to play and can't play that much anyways, Starks is out indefinitely, so who the fuck is going to be the main RB Sunday?
All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!
Monty.

Finally, we'll be seeing the full Monty.
HOFer
Cobb or Monty will be the main back, which is pathetic
M3 just doesn't like rbs, they take away from the deep passing game
As a 3rd down back or for screens/swing passes I could see them going with Montgomery. I think Cobb neck injury precludes him from playing RB.
I also think playing them as a RB with runs straight up behind Lang are stupid. They'd need to open up a huge hole in the defense's front for that to make sense, otherwise you're just beating up your WR's.
Hey, maybe they can use Janis as a RB.
The ONLY bonus of using Cobb/Monte in the backfield is when they get hurt, and they will. Stubby will finally have to play Janis and Abbrederis.
Plus, we've got the Ripper. That guy fucks.
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro ~Hunter S.
lol

Lacy will play. He played most of his first 2 years with an ankle injury and did well.

Stick with the meds.
Rip at RB would be pathetic. Having to play a little slot receiver at RB would be even more dubious - they aren't built to take that punishment.
One advantage of a third down back is they can credibly fill-in as a featured back in a pinch.
Starks ruled out for Cowboys game.
HOFer
if eddy is also out or limited, we're done
i know m3 thinks you can win being one dimensional, but if we have/show no running game, the cowboys are gonna pin back their ears and make anton even more jumpy in the pocket then he usually is
and rip or the 2 wr's at rb is not showing a legit second dimension
