Both teams have two capable backs, but comparing them isn't easy. None of the 4 really match up in terms of what they do best. Deuce is mostly a straight ahead runner, but will make the quick break once outside the tackles. Reggie, well you just don't know what he is going to do. TJ would be considered our 'lightning' portion but he does not have exceptional speed and tends to dance around in the backfield too much looking for lanes. Benson is a straight ahead runner. He can make moves but doesn't make too many. He is a bear to bring down and it will take more than one. Chicago is one of the few teams that has the speed in their linebackers that can give Bush a hard time. As for Deuce it just comes down wrapping him up and not letting him get into the secondary because he can be a load for cornerbacks.
