Betts or the Rock

Uhhh...Ladell Betts...

I Honestly thought we should have let Rock go and moved Nemo or White into the #3 spot. The only good thing i have seen from Cartwright is that day in St. Lois where anyone cold ahve rushed for 100 yards. Ladell has always been able to come into teh game when CP was out and gain us some positive yards. I would take Ladell over rock any day.

No competition, Ladell Betts. I like how Betts style complements Portis because he is a different style of runner. I think that Rock is competing with Nemo for the #3 spot. Rock got so little playing time last season I'm starting to have a hard time remembering what his running style is like.

Betts is better, but not good enough to be a #1 back. Both are solid backups, and can be good in certain situations. Both are valuable on special teams, I'd say Betts is more valuable just because he plays a primary role.

I will agree with the majority of people here that Betts is the better back mainly because of increased playing time over Rock. However, I am not confident that neither can carry the rock 25-30 times a game and hit holes or even find holes consistently. Also, Betts had three fumbles last year and if I remember correctly he did not have that much playing time because of injury to even out his fumble average. In other words he did not get enough burn to warrant three fumbles.

Now Rock, to me has more power then both CP and Betts but he doesn't run with enough authority. He needs to be a bit more aggressive in my opinion.

I definitely think we need to start thinking about upgrading the back up running back position if this season one of them doesn't step up. :2cents:
