Montee hits the hole so much faster than Knowshon, I like his running style much better. Knowshon is good at everything though and has earned his spot as the starter for the rest of the year.
I feel better about next year if we can't re-sign Knowshon though. Montee looks like he'll be a quality RB.
For now though you leave things as they are.

Is it time for Ball to start?

Like everyone, I thought Ball looked fantastic. Knowshon starts, but I'd like to see Ball get about 5 more carries a game.

Dance with the one you brought. Ball will have his time, KM straight up earned this.

Wait, you want Ball to start instead of...Knowshon? After the year he's had?
Please, don't tell Knowsh....crap. Now you've done it.

I like what I am seeing from Ball but Moreno is still my starter.. I ain't messing with the order of things.

at some of you in here talking about how good/great our RB's are when after the first preseason game we were told by you that CJ was the only RB on the team that ran with balance, vision, and power....I guess you don't have TV's anymore.

There may be a time where Ball surpasses Moreno, but I would say that now is absolutely not the time.

I do love that both Moreno and Ball are just grinding out yards with ease. Ball had a play in the 2nd quarter I think, a stretch run to the right that the Chargers defended supremely well, but he made a very sharp cut to get under the contain and still picked up a solid 6 or so yards on a play he should have at best got nothing on. He has superb vision for a rookie and his patience with staying behind his blockers is something very few backs can match.

No to Ball starting, but yes to him getting more carries; but not at the expense of Moreno.
One of the underrated advantages Moreno gives the team is that with him in, the opposing defense doesn't necessarily know if it is run or pass, and they have to watch for the screen. When Ball is in, it isn't always a run, but the odds are more tilted towards a run.

KM should continue to start...but Ball needs MORE carries, as he is a bit better in the run game. It should be Ball for 40% of the series, KM for 60%. But why mess with anything. Both are running well, and they are also both blocking and receiving well. It is a good problem to have, knowing we have 2 good backs.

Tempting but Knowshon has been our MVPNMP (MVP not named Peyton). He earns tough yardage and his work softening the D is part of what makes Montee look good.
I would've like to see. Montee in the red zone before the Manning pick. He's the all time NCAA touchdown scorer for a reason.

I thought Ball was going to take one to the house. But I think this mix is working well. KM was carrying guys with him, and Ball hits the hole quick, and picks up big chunks at a time.
