I think Lindsay could be in when we need a big play. Gordon can be in just to drive down the field and pick up like five yards a pickup. And freeman could be that power back who comes in the goal line and pounds it in.
I have very mixed feelings about having 2 #1 running backs. However, this will definitely open up things for the wide recievers. I just really think its going to hurt Phillip lyndeys opportunities.
I would love to see see Lindsay & Gordon on the field at the same time but realistically I doubt you will see them together more than 10 times this season.
