Evan Silva suggests that the Lions should lean more into Jahmyr Gibbs over David Montgomery in the upcoming game against the Commanders. Silva notes that Gibbs has been electrifying and has improved significantly in pass protection, earning the team's trust. With uncertainties around Montgomery's health returning from injury, Silva believes Gibbs should have a more prominent role.

Adam Levitan predicts that in the upcoming game against the Commanders, Jahmyr Gibbs will receive around 65% of the backfield workload compared to David Montgomery's 35%, especially since Montgomery is returning from an MCL injury. Levitan believes Gibbs will have a significant role due to his performance and that if he were coaching, he would allocate even more touches to Gibbs (70-30 split).
