It’s not a new trend, but a continuing one, that NFL teams are relying less on the concept of a featured running back, many opting for specialization and backfields-by-committee in today’s NFL. The trend is also showing up among Super Bowl winners.

The Steelers have the most Super Bowl championships of any franchise and, not surprisingly, some of the most iconic moments in the history of the game.

One of the preseason rumors surrounding the Redskins’ backfield competition is that RB Willie Parker could be in danger of not making the final roster. The latest is that fellow veteran Larry Johnson might be in the same position.

Redskins RB Clinton Portis might just have some fantasy life left in him yet.

Forgive an overstatement of the obvious, but training camp is not fun for players or fantasy football enthusiasts. And you just have to look at the recent injury news to see why.

Reports have been positive on Clinton Portis, but I’m still not buying into him having a comeback season.

Redskins offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan says Clinton Portis will be the starting running back when training camp opens.

I’m avoiding the Redskins backfield on fantasy draft day. Even Clinton Portis.

Brian Westbrook is expected to visit the Redskins, which could provide yet another source of motivation for an already committed Clinton Portis.

Kevin Mawae’s playing days might not be over in Tennessee, the Redskins have an open competition at running back and Super Bowl MVP Drew Brees has been spending time with American troops overseas. To find out more, go Around the Web…

The NFL in April has more bluffing than the main event table in the World Series of Poker. Teams generally don’t want to tip their hand too early. So in the wake of reports that St. Louis was interested in Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford, GM Billy Devany went into Phil Hellmuth mode.
