Coach Mike Smith confirmed he now likes using his running backs in a committee. At this point, we can expect the snap count between Michael Turner and Jacquizz Rodgers to be close to even on a weekly basis. Turner's sluggish running is holding the Falcons' up-tempo scheme hostage. At this point, his only value to fantasy owners is as a goal-line back. "We feel like Jacquizz is a very viable option to carry the football and has done a nice job for us," Smith said. "It has become more of the vogue thing to do, to have a running back by committee."
