This is more of a situational thing. The fatigue seems to work this year so that will be one reason. However, as a Giants fan, the Giants will use Jacobs and (as of now) Bradshaw in different situations. Jacobs is a between the tackles runner and is not as effective when trying to run outside. You wouldn't call many sweeps with Jacobs. Bradshaw is much more of a slash back with great agility and quickness. He would be better suited for things like screens, stretch plays and sweeps. I do it by substituting them in on the fly. Does Madden allow you to set your substitutions for your formations ahead of time and save them like APF does?
