Wow, Arkansas can churn out running backs. Bodes well for Knile Davis in the future.

They also all 3 played at the same time and came out the same year.

If you list Ryan Torain, you should list Brandon Jackson for the Packers. If it's for the beginning of the season, this is all wrong. You should also list Stewart for the panthers, Hightower for the Cardinals, Brown for the Colts, and Ivory for the Saints.

And if we're being super critical, BenJarvus Green-Ellis did play for Indiana for 2 years before transferring.

How did I lose a point? Because I was right? I notice the colors have changed, just not the information. Great quiz idea, but its a 1/5 until it's correct.

Jamaal Charles is the Chiefs best running back, but he isn't the starter. Thomas Jones is Kansas City's starting running back.

Don't know why everyone is voting down BDR...he is 500% correct. Not that it effects the quiz which backs are used. However, the choice of back is not consistant.

there should probably be some specific determining factor for which backs are used, maybe starting day rbs or most starts during the year. bdr and akabuca are right, since some that started week 1 aren't here, but others are. gotta be consistent

@Alex951998, Its funny because both McFFaden and Jones played at the same time! McFfadden was the primary while Jones was more of a 3rd down back. Funny how they both got drafted.

Hmmm, why is that funny exactly? Ronnie Brown and Cadillac Williams were picked 2&5 in the same draft from the same school
