I'd like the move to a 2 back system if Betts wasn't our second back. I just don't trust betts to hold onto the football. Yes this may help to save Portis for the end of the year, but what about the rest of the team. The old o-line isn't going to have a break and they could still be worn down by the end of the year. Where is their rest going to come from....Sorry to get off topic but I don't know how coming out and saying Betts is the third down back is really that helpful. Maybe in certain situations but as a whole I'm not a fan of this move for alot of the same reasons people here are already saying.
