I would bet my mortgage the backup RB is decided on by the coaching staff.

at the risk of derailing the thread - I must admit I'm a bit mystified by the attitudes towards dwyer. maybe someone can crunch stats better than me, but it seems to me that whenever he touches the ball - it results in positive yards. He runs hard, is often stoked when he gets the first down. He doesn't get many touches - but my impression is when he does, he makes plays.
maybe he's the opposite of the 'practice guy'. you know, the one that looks great on the south side/latrobe and has the coaches ooohing and ahhhing - but then shows nothing on sunday. Maybe dwyer is the crappy practice guy that has the coaching staff pulling their hair out and only using him as a last resort - only to find that on sunday, he finally shows up?

Dwyer is a significantly better back than Redman, but this is not saying much. Did anyone except the coaches/FO think Redman was the best starting back we could get? He must be the worst back in NFL history, and that was pretty much always apparent.
