The combined talents of DeMarco Murray and Ryan Mathews have the potential to make the Philadelphia Eagles backfield truly special. And it will take both for the organization to take the next step in the NFC East and as a playoff contender.
All of talk of head coach Chip Kelly being a "racist" aside, the combination of Murray and Mathews has the chance to be a special duo capable of running roughshod over the rest of the NFL.
It's not an either-or situation where one back absolutely needs to become a workhorse in order for the team to be successful.
