By BobIt was announced today from Dolphins head coach that come Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Arian Foster will be running with the starters. It was a close battle between him and second year pro Jay Ajayi all preseason but the vet Foster was able to edge him out with his knowledge of the offense and his experience in the league. Not to mention Ajayi fumbled the ball on his first carry of his last preseason game, so if I was the coach I am definitely choosing the guy who had lead the league in rushing multiple times. This could be one of the best one-two running back combos in the league to be honest. Even though Arian battled injuries during his time in Houston, he now has another back actually worthy of touching the ball. Ajayi played well last year behind a breakout Lamar Miller, so now with an older guy coming in hell easily get more carries as the season progresses. I would not even be surprised if Ajayi wins out the starting spot by seasons end. I don't think the Dolphins are getting as much attention as they should. I know last year was a bust for Tannehill, but with a more experienced roster and a defense led by Ndammong Suh the Fins are right in the race in the competitive AFC East.
