Is the "Cerberus" really a good thing for the Cowboys?



I know this should be a "fanshot" instead of a fanpost but really, as many times as "thebigham" has told us how to make a fanshot, I still could not successfully shoot it. I did try, and that was a joke, too. But let's talk Greek mythology.

Disclaimer: I am not going to say "we", "our", "my" or any other term that implies that I am on the Cowboys. When I say "we", I am referring to myself and my friends.

Am I the only one who thinks the three-headed monster the Cowboys have at running back is a bad thing?

As I watched the first two games it was too easy for my friends and I to know when the Cowboys were going to "run it up the gut". We even started a drinking game about it. "If the Cowboys run it up the middle on this play, you have to drink." The only time we got fooled was the Gronkowski TD.

Every other time Felix came in off the bench, or it was short yardage, we knew it was going to be a run or a screen. So I ask you: Is this really a good thing? If I can call our plays, don't you think even the worst defensive coordinator in the NFL can figure that out too?

Wouldn't it be better to trade one of our "three-headed" monsters? I am not going to argue which one, but I am going to say that one of them should go. Besides not giving each of them enough carries to get in the game (less than 10 carries each, really?) I actually think that the Cowboys are tipping their plays to the other team with the substitution packages.

I am frustrated and upset right now and have not re-watched the Bears game yet but I can not be the only one who saw this or thinks this way.
