The Titans rank 16th in the NFL with 107.6 rushing yards a game. That’s up from 90.4 in 2014.

That’s a nice improvement, but it doesn’t warrant the continued support of the running back committee from Ken Whisenhunt.

Let’s face it, the Titans are using a committee, not because they they want to but because they have to. Few backs are absolute bell-cows anymore.

But certainly a foundational back demands more than 29 percent, which is the share of the load Titans leading rusher Bishop Sankey has gotten.

Perhaps game to game the Titans can put a different back at the head of the line. Perhaps once David Cobb returns from IR/designated to return in a few weeks they will be adding a better option.

It’s time to give the top back on a given Sunday closer to 20 carries than 10.

Fantasy Impact: 

Terrance West had 13 carries back in Week 1 and that was the most any back has got in a game this year the story said.

Titans will continue to take 'week to week' approach with RBBC

Titans HC Ken Whisenhunt doesn’t sound like a coach who is in a rush to identify his leading rusher.

“What’s wrong with what we’ve been doing in the first three weeks running the football?” he said.

Whisenhunt’s approach is to install different offensive packages that are suited to each back’s skill-set. Then the Titans go with whatever is working in a given game.

That helps explain why a different player has been the leading rusher in each of the Titans’ three games — Sankey against Tampa Bay, McCluster against Cleveland and Andrews against Indianapolis.

“I don’t know what it’s going to be next week or the next week that we play,” Whisenhunt said. “That’s going to go from week to week.”

Related Players: Antonio Andrews, Bishop Sankey, Dexter McCluster and Terrance West

Fantasy Impact: 

Antonio Andrews was the lead back in Week 3, while Terrance West was a healthy scratch, so it appears that Andrews has passed West on the depth chart, at the very least. Owners won't be able to start Andrews with confidence in Week 5, but if he continues to produce, he should work his way into the flex conversation fairly quickly. Bishop Sankey and Dexter McCluster will continue to get opportunities as well.

In a Week 1 win at Tampa Bay, running back Bishop Sankey led the way in the running game.

In Week 2, a lot of the pre-game buzz centered on running back Terrance West, who was traded from the Browns to the Titans just a few weeks ago.

But it was Dexter McCluster who busted onto the scene in Sunday’s 28-14 loss to the Browns.

McCluster had a team-high 98 yards on 10 carries against the Browns, nearly getting his rushing total from a year ago (131 yards) in one game. Sankey (12-42) and West (3-10), meanwhile, had relatively quiet days.

Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt offered praise for McCluster on Monday. McCluster said the plan going in was to get him some touches.

Fantasy Impact: 

The Titans are getting production from their running backs but this looks like an unpredictable committee approach. McCluster has never really carried the load as an RB. Sankey led the team in carries but only turned 12 rushes into 42 yards.

Whiz: 'Distribution of carries will depend' on the game plan 'that week'

Titans HC Ken Whisenhunt said that the RB distribution of carries will depend on the plan for that game and that week.

Related Players: Bishop Sankey, David Cobb

Fantasy Impact: 

If there was any doubt that this was going to be a committee, this statement should clear that up. We're recommending that fantasy owners avoid this situation if at all possible.
