You must be kidding me if you don't think there is a difference between their blocking abilities.
I don't think anybody expects their RB to block like a lineman...but the purpose of them staying in the backfield on the pass is solely to pick up the blitz. Barber is known for ability to pick up a blitzing LB...as well as make them pay for coming into the pocket at all. Just ask John Madden. Tashard is a great runner, but his rookie label is most apparent when it comes to blocking. Before he received any playing time, this was a primary concern. He definitely hasn't shown any great blocking ability thus far.
