Read-Option: Experience or Rest?

You guys already know my stance on Ronald Jones. I think he just need more experience. In fact, in this week’s episode of the Pewter Nation Podcast, I said Jones should get every single carry (most of them) in the last two preseason games.

My reasoning for that is because if you don’t play Jones to avoid injury, you’re bringing in a back who would be as effective as a guy who wasn’t available. Jones needs touches, in my opinion. He needs experience. He needs to learn how to produce.

But what do you think? Is it time for an increase in carries for Jones, or are a few splash plays and then some rest for the regular season what you think will be best in the long run?

Are you worried about RoJo?
