... what is wrong with the notion of the running back position in the NFL.

Over a year ago, I wrote an article where I compared every opening day starter in 2007 to their primary backup. After researching and analyzing the statistics, I found that 25 out of the 32 opening-day starting NFL running backs were replaceable with running backs on their own team.

I concluded that 11 backups outperformed their starters, with 14 performing as well as their starters.  Not surprisingly, 21 of the starters from 2007 have been replaced.

Cedric Benson was one of the starters replaceable then, and despite leading the league in rushing, he definitely still is now.
