I felt like they were trying to showcase Robinson and Thompson against the Cardinals, which made me believe that they were both being propped up for a trade, or their release so they would have a better chance to catch on with another team.
Thompson got a lot of carries, and Robinson got a lot of targets, plus Robinson returned punts too, which I think most agree is just a bad idea. It was odd to see individual role players being the apparent focus of the offense, even in a preseason game.
I personally can't stand Darwin Thompson, and while I am not a Robinson fan, he does know the offensive system. It would not hurt my feelings if both of these players were sent packing, but I would hope that a back-up fumbler/hurdler would be shipped off before a player who contributed to the offense on a regular basis.
