Should Moreno start? Or keep him as a closer?

Between Miller and Moreno, does it even matter who starts? It seems it could be effective starting with Miller's speed in trying to gas the opposing dline (especially big NTs), then bring in Moreno to pound 'em down in the later of halves.

Your thoughts?
 
It doesn't matter. They'll both contribute heavily. Lazor said in his post game press conference that it will depend on scheme, adjustments, playcall, who needs a breather, luck of the draw, flow of the game, and maybe even who earns it as the game carries on. Miller and Moreno will both see valuable playing time. Instead of thinking of them as individuals in the run or pass game, I would consider them more as dual complimentary threats.

M&M.
 
Moreno is the big bull DT was supposedly gonna be. And Miller is that fast strike speed runner.
They will get time and feed off each other. Punch em then slash em. Or slash em then punch em. I like we have the hard runner and then the guy to torch.
 
They will both get decent amount of playing time. But you play your best players.
 
I want the guy who has the most yards after first contact. That'll be Moreno
He's a banger.
 
when Moreno isn't always running for 100 yards, lets remember his overall value(consistent, durable, holds the rock, great pass protector, good receiver)
 
It doesnt matter to me, but if the guy is getting 5yds plus a pop you dont stop doing it. Why the F we were passing was beyond me (first half)
 
Man, I am not sure. I loved what he did week 1, my one concern is if he can continue to take that type of pounding game in and game out. He had a good amount of carries even though he did not start; I wish we had another back like him so that we can keep it going because Miller is starting to be a mistake waiting to happen. Every time he gets the ball I am just see him messing up some how. I have seen Miller breakout a run and fumble once too many times. I have never seen a running back do that before, you breakout then fumble.
 
don't really care who is on the field on the first snap. hell, put them both on the field for the first snap. Just win.
 
Honestly it doesnt matter... just please for the sake of you know what... do not take Moreno out of the lineup inside the 20..
 
You want the reps split about 2 to 1 like they were. You want to establish Moreno early, because he brings an energy and physicality to the game. Once Moreno loosens up the D, that's when Miller will look his best - and maybe get to use his long speed.
 
As other have said (and I'm sure the RB's know this as well) it doesn't matter who is the field for play 1...As long as the split between pass and rush is about even and they are picking up positive yards....all will be good.
