Holyfield is still a Panther, as far as I know. He was impressive week one. Scarlett was impressive week two. Big game for both backs Thursday.

They both seemed to have the third area of RB which is sadly under commented, block/blitz pickup skills. Something we haven’t seen here in a while. I’d personally love to see a breakdown of that in the future. But you do you! You’ve been killing it so far.

Thank you. That’s something worth looking into.

At this point, I'd like to keep Scarlett.  Part w/ all the RBs and sign a vet when cuts come around. 

CAP IMO isn't good enough and he is much better than the rest.

I believe if we really try we can talk this former great out of retirement to be Cmc’s backup. He only played for the money, so it shouldn’t be an issue.

Scarlett has been impressive throughout camp when healthy and had a good showing against Buffalo (arguably our best player in that entire game). I think he’ll hold off Holyfield but it should be a good battle. I’ll be watching it closely tomorrow against the Pats.

CMC, Scarlett, CAP, Armah on the swing. Seems about perfect to me.

this will be CAP's 5th season here.  

I just don't see the point in keeping him anymore.  Teams too easily find decent runners today.  RBs should have upside to be something hopefully special.   We know what CAP is and isn't.    I'd just rather have a reliable vet that has proven he can play on Sunday to pair w/ CMC and Scarlett. 

We should of used Anderson.  We should of then kept him.  We let him leave and basically said what we need is exactly what we had. 

[top dawg]

Scarlett! Easily.

All three running backs performed well against the Bills, albeit in limited opportunities.  At this point, it looks to be CAP and one of the others.  Holyfield may have a slight edge on Scarlette, but very slight.

I think it's honestly Scarlett job to lose at 2

Third spot is a battle between CAP and Bonnafon. Bonnafon might have the edge as a Fozzy type player.

[Black&BlueBubba]

Not to piss anyone off but there is no way Holyfield is gonna be the #2.  I’m not sure he is gonna make the PS if Bonnafon has to go back to PS.  

This should not even be a debate.

Why?  Certainly didn't see anything against the Bills to indicate that he is ahead of CAP or Holyfield at this point.  He played well, but so did the other two.  That could change in the next two weeks of course.

We must have watched 2 different games.

It will be CAP and you all know it. Don't kid yourselves
