For me for the panthers is Dwill and goodson. I traded Stewart for nicks WR from the giants. I love nicks. I am a tar heel fan. Nicks is a panther now in my franchise. Yeppie!!!!

Re: Your Runningback Tandem

The only bad thing about AP is a fumbler this year. Plus AP needs to a better job of waiting until the holes open for him before he trys to run through the linemen. Thoses are AP worse problem right now. He is a great RB in the making. But he needs to learn to hang onto the ball better and wait for the holes to open more before running into the pail of Dlinemen. BTW bro where is your second guy to backup AP

AP backs himself up.

Toby Gerhart and Felix Jones. I play as the Cowboys mainly and Barber is good, but I love me some Gerhart. I've drafted him in almost all of my franchises. He can fill the Power back spot that Barber is supposed to take, but he can also be a feature back, easing the load that Jones has to carry and letting me put Felix back on KR/PR without having to worry about wearing him out.

This in my Ravens franchise.

In my Fantasy Raiders franchise - AP and Beanie Wells (needless to say...I fear the fumble with these two...), with Makino on 3rd down.

In my Fantasy Bucs franchise - McCoy and Jamaal Charles.

In my old Fantasy Bucs franchise, it was Beanie Wells and Shonn Greene.

Re: Your Runningback Tandem

I use Pershing Williams (91spd) and Oscar Singletary (95spd), both from the Kaven Duncan draft class.

Gotta love those rookies. Excellent tandem backs until Williams goes down in week 10 with a broken collarbone, and Singletary goes down in the Divisional playoff round with broken ribs.

Re: Your Runningback Tandem

4th year of my Texans franchise and I'm using Slaton and Arian Foster. By no means a deadly tandem but a very effective one that compliments one another. I'm all ears if anyone has a powerback to replace Foster

Me too in my Ravens franchise but I don't split the carries that evenly.. Rice has prbly 70% of the carries and I only use McClain sparingly as a rusher, but McGahee has most of the goal line carries and the most TDs.

Re: Your Runningback Tandem

RBs:
Brandon Jacobs
Ahmad Bradshaw
Gartrell Johnson
D.J. Ware
Andre Brown

FBs:
Madison Hedgecock
Bear Pascoe

I run a smashmouth offense with my G-Men(65%run, 35%pass). Jacobs, Bradshaw and Hedgecock get the bulk of the carries, but I have special packages to get everyone involved, even fullbacks. Their blocking and short-yardage ability is crucial in my offense.

Re: Your Runningback Tandem

I rock my boys...I havent changed much from the original lineup at the start of the year. Cadillac and Ward...Probably about a 70/25 split. The remaining 5 go to Chris Pressley. (Former Badger, my home team...only home team I rep...still a distant 2nd to my Gators)

Re: Your Runningback Tandem

in my online fantasy franchise, i originally had knowshon moreno and jamaal charles...but i traded moreno to get steve slaton cuz slaton is so awesome! So yea, its pretty cool having two backs with their speed and playmaking ability out of the backfield when im in trouble

Re: Your Runningback Tandem

In my Jets franchise (no fantasy draft) my tandem is Ray Rice and Jonathan Stewart.
