In this week's game pitting the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Denver Broncos, both teams will likely have changes to their running back systems.

The Broncos will probably have Mike Bell carry most of the load while starter Tatum Bell is sidelined with a turf toe. Mike Bell came in relief for the struggling Tatum Bell against the Colts last week and was able to provide a major spark. There's still a chance that Tatum Bell could see some action, but if he does, he will be limited.

The Steelers will have a new third-down running back in Najeh Davenport. Davenport has been utilized sparingly the past few weeks, but his role will increase after the team placed Verron Haynes on the injured reserve. For some reason, the Steelers still do not want to give Duce Staley a chance at playing though, as there has been no mention of him being activated for a game anytime soon.
