Its time to move on. Why some of you are unable to do so - well, I guess I'll chalk it up to sentiment - but you don't win in the NFL by starting your second best player at any position.
In all honesty Av, last year you flip-flopped more than a few times on Faulk's ability, but now it looks like you're sure. I'm not. Mok put it in perspective, when Faulk was given the chance, he produced, bottom line. Jackson's durability, or lack there of concerns me. It's hard to be a feature back if you're standing on the sideline in street clothes.

I'm not dismissing Jackson as the feature back, I just would like to know with a little more certainty whether or not Faulk can be the guy.

Unfortunately, barring the unforeseen, we'll never know.
