Good A-backs probably won't have a future in the NFL. Good B-backs will have a better shot.

They could get ridiculous yards in this offense.
If they got the ball enough.
I think the biggest issue is that it's not clear how it translates to the nfl. The nfl seems to prefer specialty guys over hybrids, but I suppose that could change.
We need orwin and godhigh to really make a name for themselves.
Exactly! CPJ spreads the ball around so much that no one player typically dominates every game. The top notch RBs and WRs want the ball a lot.

I honestly wonder if just doing something as little as changing position names from B-back/A-back to tail back/slot back would help perception. It seems silly, but I don't think it would hurt.
It's not the plays we run. A lot of it is the manner in which we run them.
Our A-backs get more of yard running back and forth relaying plays. Why we don't run a faster tempo, I will never know.

I think CPJ prefers to slow the game down to keep the opposing offense off the field. That helps the D a lot.

If we had a Gio Bernard or CJ Spiller at AB, I think they'd get a lot of carries and go on to success in the NFL. CPJ's offense is designed to succeed without having those kinds of players available, but I think they would do just as well as they do in an NFL-style offense.
I've been wondering about this as well. A guy like CJ Spiller would be a tremendous threat both in the running and passing game. We haven't had anybody remotely close to that type of player yet.
