Thread: Race will be fierce among the Denver Broncos' running backs for top spot

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- At a time when the Denver Broncos have promised to run the ball more -- and even better than they did last season -- the competition for those carries will likely be the fiercest battle for playing time on the roster.

While some uncertainty arrives with any new coaching staff, the offense that coach Gary Kubiak runs has consistently churned out 1,000-yard rushers.

"Who is going to be the bell cow?" Kubiak asked earlier this week at the NFL's annual owners meeting in Phoenix. "Who is going to be a three-down player? They have to sort that out."

CJ Anderson. Final answer.

I suppose the battle for reps will be tough, but CJ is obviously the starter. Behind him both Bell and Thompson are good backs, but CJ was one of the best backs in the league in the last half of 14'.
