Adrian Peterson is only the backup because he's a rookie, and there's no way Jones-Drew is as good all around as Betts.

You're wrong. I've seen every Boys game this year and they split carries about the same way that the Skins do. Generally one of them takes a series. Barber is a better back and he gets in the end zone much better than Ladell Betts. Also, Jones-Drew is a better runner, maybe not the best pass catcher, but he is a better blocker. And regardless of whether he's a rookie or not, he's not the starter, so if I remember correctly, that makes Peterson a
backup.
Also, as of right now, Ladell Betts is the 87th best back in the league as far as YPC
