    The real question now then is,

    Can Whiz effectively run this RB committee? Last year his decision making on who to put in during which situations were wrong on so many levels. He can't do that this year.

    Leon Washington should not have made 2014 roster.

    His only contribution was he made keeping Renard impossible

    No spot at all for Washington.

    We have a few returners, Jones, McBride, and McCluster. Then we have actual runningbacks. Greene, Sankey, Cobb, Fowler, and potentially Andrews. Washington is the odd man out barring some craziness.

    They took RB's this year for a reason....Cobb and Fowler will win out with ease. I'll be honest, DMC, Greene, and Washington ALL need to be gone. DMC was a joke.

    Wizenhunt having either McCluster or Washington on the field on third downs was coaching malfeasance.

    For the first time in a while I felt like we had a clear direction this off season, oddly enough it was when we collectively hated our GM and HC the most. In free agency we addressed the defense, with upgrades at 3 starting spots. Then the draft rolls around and turns out we've already been changing up our offense for 3 weeks now for Mariota, we give him immediate help on offense with DGB (red zone) and a power run game (3rd downs), a couple defensive guys to develop, and a 7th round pick that actually everyone loved. We're building around Mariota, giving him plenty of weapons and suiting up of the offense to suit his strengths and minimize his weaknesses.

    This has been all good on paper and in theory but now I'm just ready to see it in action.

    As someone said above (I think), you don't make designed QB running plays a foundation of your offense, ala the Skins and RG3 or Broncos and Tebow, but you have it as a piece of your offense to keep teams more honest in the run game, ala the Seahawks and Russell Wilson. The Seahawks don't run zone read plays with Russell all that often, but they do occasionally. And the threat of those plays makes their running game more affective. I would follow this strategy if I were the Titans.
