I'm conflicted on which RB I like more. Jamaal Williams or Aaron Jones. What about you? Who do you like more?

Packers rookie Jamaal Williams had 135 total yards last week, the fourth best total for any running back in the league in Week 12.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Alvin Kamara, Joe Mixon and Le'Veon Bell. They were the only three NFL running backs who totaled more yards from scrimmage last week than Green Bay Packers rookie Jamaal Williams.

That's impressive company for the player who in short order has become the focal point of the Brett Hundley-led offense.

Williams' rushing performance -- 21 carries for 66 yards -- in Sunday's 31-28 loss at Pittsburgh was a grind. His longest run was a 12 yards -- his biggest gain of the season. But throw in four catches for 69 yards, including a 54-yard touchdown on a screen pass, and his 135 total yards from scrimmage was fourth-best among all backs in Week 12.

"Anytime we talk about the running back position we look at can they play all three downs?" Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. "And obviously being a good receiver is part of that."

I'm not sure either is that much better than the other. I think they both will be able to play all three downs so a rotation between them wouldn't be a tell as to whether we are in a run or pass situation. play them both and put Monty back to a slot receiver.

Aaron Jones, but they are a thunder and lightning duo.

Still think Williams is a pedestrian try hard guy.

Jones has sizzle and true game breaking ability, so for me it's not even close. He's back at practice so it'll be interesting to see what they do with the RB rotation if/when he returns.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

I sorta feel like his big play was more a mistake on the ILB than him making a great play.


But you have to give credit to Williams for his broke tackles.

I think it depends on how your blocking is going to be vs the defense... if you can make holes and gaps and push them back a bit, go with the lighting in Jones... but if they're pushing you back and making it extremely hard to get out of the backfield, then maybe Williams, as he seems to break a lot of tackles around the line... but less so once he gets further down the field.
