Default RB by Committee

Interesting stat that the Indystar pulled on on Robert Turbin:
Quote:
He has a touchdown or first down on all 28 of his carries with 3 yards to go or less over the last two seasons.
With the O-Line that we trotted out over the past 2 seasons, that is a pretty amazing stat.

However, I also keep hearing about the ability to move guys like Mack, Hines and Ferguson all over the field to get some "sizzle" out of them. That also is pretty exciting.

So, it appears to me that we have 2 different types of RBs on the roster.

Mack, Hines, Ferguson = "Get into Space and Sizzle" RBs

Turbin, Wilkins, Michael = "Run between the Tackle" RBs

If the O-Line is as improved as I think it could be, that is not a bad lineup to give Andrew weapons. There is a lot of talent there to work with (minus Turduson whom I just don't like).

Walk Worthy,
