I’ve thought it for awhile now, but others finally seem to be coming along: It’s time for a change up at Washington’s starting running back position. Chris Rodriguez is a better fit for Kliff Kingsbury’s running scheme and is an upgrade over Brian Robinson when he comes in the game. He should be garnering the lion’s share of the carries at this point.
Last week, against the Eagles, Robinson had arguably the worst game of his career, with two fumbles and only 24 yards on the ground. He had a bit more success against the Falcons, but was fairly ineffective for most of the game, including on several short yardage plays.
