Default bad fuel pump?

I got in my truck to go to work the other morning and the truck seemed to have a little trouble idling. Then when I got on the gas it had some hesitation. It ended up making it to and from work but I noticed anytime I was barely on the gas so the RPMs were still low it would sputter like it wanted to stall out. This past weekend I changed the fuel filter thinking maybe I got some bad gas and it is still doing it. I think it is sputtering even worse now.

My truck has only sputtered occasionally when I was coming to a stopped the RPMs would dip low some, I started doing to routine maintenace and it went away. Now this is happening and Im not sure what it is. Do I have a bad fuel pump? I read somewhere that when fuel pumps go, they go. Well my truck is still starting and running.
