    I was telling someone the other day that I think it would be awesome to have them both on the field at the same time. That's a total "pick your poison" scenario. I'm sure Haley will think of something. Bell is definitely better though. I mean he can even run routes and catch like a maniac too. He's just an all around great football player.

    That is what I am mainly preaching. Not once did they run it last year.

    You were calling for equal carries last year?

    I won't deny that. I also mentioned having them both on the field at the same time for a few plays a game which would make defenses go stir crazy.

    The approach that they took though I truly hated which was play Bell only and let D Will ride the pine.

    I'll back off giving them equal carries but to waste the talent of one of the two great backs we have by sitting him is ludicrous. D Will should see no less than 8 offensive plays a game once Bell come back. Be it with both of them on the field or solo.

    I can agree with that.
    No way you sit DWill.
    Tomlin will more than likely run Bell till he breaks him.
