Re: Who has the better running duo in NFC east?
I'm more impressed with the Dallas line than it's backs. Barber gets a lot of hype but the last time we played them he got 1 yard. Jones is a rookie, who knows for sure? How much is the line and how much is the back? Jacobs is more of a "Barbarian" than Barber. Hard as hell to bring down. Westbrook is a very elusive back who always gives us problems. I like the 1-2 punch we have with Portis and Betts. It does'nt hurt to have the "Beast", Mike Sellers back there either. Portis can break one at any time and is the best blocking back in the league. Betts would be starting on a lot of other teams and is very under-rated. On top of that you've got Sellers back there mowing down people and occasionally catching passes. Nobody wants to hit or be hit by Sellers. Might sound like a homer but I like our guys. As our new offense settles in I think it will showcase our backs talents even more.
