The past 2 weeks they've essentially split time in the backfield. That wasn't the case earlier in the season. This tells me they're moving towards featuring Herbert. I want them to accelerate that process.
snap % last two weeks
Herbert
41%
28%
Monty
56%
70%
at the same time, their rushing attempts are nearly equal at 28 to 30.
I think they just understand that Montgomery is a complete back while Herbert is a good runner. The snaps against Dallas are really telling because Herbert was running so well. Also, Monty has more than double Herbert's receptions on the year.
You treat it like I'm assaaulting Herbert. He's a player who is nicely developing but had flaws coming out of college that haven't been overcome. Maybe they will. I think he could be a good receiver. I don't think he is going to be a blocker.
I like the combination and I'd love to let it continue for another 2+ years.
