Three Headed RB

[Philosophers]

I must say I liked a 3 RB committee with each offering something different.  Then if one goes down to injury, still have 2 in rotation.

Would we go back to that under Dabs?

What RB type is Eric Gray?

Corbin, Singletary, and Gray are all 1 cut backs.

Corbin, Singletary, and Gray are all 1 cut backs.

J: This is not necessarily a bad thing. 

I never completely agreed with the idea Jim Fassel had that two different types of RB's were absolutely necessary (the Giants passed on someone they should have drafted back then because the guy in question was the same type of RB they already had.

The advantage of not having a variety is that the OL can block all running plays the same (and lord knows the Giants' OL, which can't do anything right, needs the maximum amount of reps on just one type of blocking, IMO. My fall-back example is the Vince Lombardi offense, which ran only a small handful of running plays, and practiced them over and over and over, until the OL got so good at running them that the opponent couldn't stop them even if when they knew which play was being run.
