Who's gonna be our RB1? (alien.top)

As the title asks, with Johnson coming out of protocol and expected to play and with the way Foreman played last week, who do we think is coming out on top? Or are we expecting a pretty even split between the 2?

Personally I hope Foreman continues to control the backfield, and with his performance last week, why not roll with him. But this is also a good chance to get the talented rookie some experience. It also seems like all the reports about him coming out of concussion protocol are hyping him up to take over this week.

Foreman’s a great runner but his pass blocking (or rather lack thereof) is a fatal flaw. Makes him almost unplayable as a #1 RB. That said, with Bagent in I think we’ll see a run-heavy / quick release game plan again so I can see him getting a majority of the snaps since we may not need pass pro support from the RB as much

It’s D’ontae Foreman’s job moving forward. Roschon will be a nice complimentary back and play a lot of special teams.

So foreman was a scratch when Khalil and roschon we're healthy, and you suspect they have lost their respective spots on the depth chart? Khalil is at the bottom of the depth chart because he got injured? Even with better production than foreman both career and this season?

Don't understand why the bears would do that.
