Those two look good because they're change of pace backs. Did we want to replace Stephen Davis with Ki Jana Carter? No. You need guys like them to come in and change the pace. They're not much different from Tatum Bell or Ron Dayne, but Denver still starts Mike Anderson. Just like when Trung was in St. Louis, he would break some big ones, but the better back started the game.

The better back starts the game in this offense. What Joe Gibbs needs to do is come up with effective ways to use all of them while still featuring Portis.

I agree 100%. Rock is a very good change-up back, but he's not a starter.
