Bradshaw's VS Jacobs' stats:
Game 1: 12/60 yds (5 ypc), 3 rec/11 yds VS 16/46 yds (2.9 ypc), 2 rec/17 yds
Game 2: 9/37 yds (4.1 ypc), 2 rec/8 yds VS 16/58 yds (3.6 ypc), 0 rec
Game 3: 14/104 yds (7.4 ypc), 0 rec VS 26/92 yds (3.5 ypc), 0 rec TD:R6
Game 4: 12/64 yds (5.3 ypc) , 0 rec VS 21/92 yds (4.4 ypc), 1 rec/-4 yds
Game 5: 11/110 yds (10 ypc), 1 rec/55 yards TD:R19, R1 VS 21/67 yds (3.2 ypc), 1 rec/8yds
Bradshaw clearly has significantly better stats. Jacobs is a beast but the way each of them are playing I would think that Bradshaw would get 2/3 the total carries with Jacobs getting 1/3 (short yardage). Bradshaw has the big playmaking ability...am I the only one seeing a great RB being held back on his potential because of his playing time? Does anyone agree and see a change of workload any time?

As Siragusa said two weeks ago, Jacobs is running light. He's been running tentatively and looks indecisive when he does head upfield. He almost looks like he's playing not to get hurt instead of running to punish people, like he has the past 2 years. He looks slow and sluggish compared to Bradshaw and is going down way too easily when he gets hit. Every once and a while he shows a flash of last year but he hasn't been able to sustain the intensity for more than a few plays at a time.
