Christine Michael (1 Viewer)

[Uncle Leo]

We did it.

Lol

 

[Smack Tripper]

Earl Campbell in his prime may have got back to the line of scrimmage

Earl Campbell today would start on this team

 

[Interseptopus]

CM apologists: "well the Dallas line just isn't blocking like they did last year"

 

[gatorbait]

I've had the dude since entering the league but you have to laugh how his first carry went knowing the thread is about to light up.

 

[mbuehner]

Gets a carry, misses the hole and runs into the back of a defender resulting in 2 yd loss.

Fun way to describe getting met 2 yards deep in the backfield.

 

[fantasycurse42]

Does every FBG member own Christine Michael?

Is he the universal lotto ticket?

He is, who he is.

 

[The General]

Rest him for next week.

Lmao what hole

 

[stbugs]

Nice run. Garrett is so over his head as a coach, trying to get cute. Let's throw him out there on a play where you need a first drive to potentially win the game and bam, you just lost the game. Again, the OL is really, really bad this year. Last year they blew the doors off of a DL like this and this year the DL is tearing them up outside of 4-5 run plays.

BTW, WTF is McFadden out there to start the drive for instead of Randle? Randle gets a TD and I am still going to lose by 1.3 points?

 

[mbrasi]

Nice ypc

He needs about 4 more yards per carry to get to Trich status

 

[McGarnicle]

Cowboys have released running back Christine Michael.

 

[The Dude]

Opportunity is there - 21 for 57 between Randle and DM - and they each had a 14 yard run.

Think you were too spoiled with last years line. They are still a well above average line.

 

[Smack Tripper]

On pace for:

4 carries

-8 yards

 

[rickyg]

Actually this thread is 100 times more enjoyable tonight than at any time ever. I wish michael was more involved but I'm enjoying this

 

[Interseptopus]

Now guys, fbgs will be tweeting, if you take away CMs outlier running plays, he will be at 0.0 ypc which is nothing to sneeze at

 

[SameSongNDance]

I'll have a video breakdown of the carry up shortly.

 

[smcindoe]

He's fumbled on 0% of his carries so far. Ball protection is crucial.

No, it's a fun way to describe a cut back that was not nessecary and ran him into a blocked defender who had his back turned.

 

[Loipz]

I need to see this run again.

Even if he stayed left, result would've been similar... Line was blown back 3 yards off the ball.

 

[bulger2holt]

I need to see this run again.

Watch ESPN later

 

[Deamon]

To be fair, that was brutal of them to throw him in cold like that.

 

[Smack Tripper]

25-50% of your FAAB dollars!!!!!

Huh. Turn on the New Orleans Saints - Dallas Cowboys game, youre missing a gem.

You are a glass half full guy. Love it.

 

[Interseptopus]

I fully expect CM to be on the weekly Upgrade list from FBG

If he stayed left and pressed the correct hole it was probably no gain, maybe a yard. Still not a first.

Jason garrett is philbin in a Ronald McDonald wig

 

[stbugs]

Hey, now some hope. Good stop. Please, please put Randle back in and throw one pass to him, that is all I ask.

 

[SengerCJ]

Here we go. I foresee CMike in the wildcat formation this drive.

 

[The General]

He can get 90 yards on this drive. Nice.

 

[EBF]

One more drive, fellas.

What a time to be alive.

 

[rickyg]

Btw where is randle? Haven't seen him in like a full quarter.

 

[McGarnicle]

Whew. Now I can get him back for $1.

 

[EastonBlues22]

I'm beginning to wonder why they even activated him if this was their "plan" for him.

Maybe he has an aura like the character in a moba computer game. C-Mike's presence on the battlefield causes +15 strength, +15 speed, and +15 agility to all allied warriors within a 100 yard radius.

They activated him for depth. The notion that he was going to get 5-20 touches was completely absurd.It's amazing how blind people can become to "their" players.

Are you suggesting that it's normal for teams to dress a 4th RB for "depth" when said RB doesn't play special teams?It was pretty reasonable to assume that they activated him to actually use him in some capacity.

You can reason your way into anything. The fact is they haven't put him on the field, at all, yet.

Dressing a 4th RB who doesn't play special teams for "depth" is far from normal practice. It was perfectly reasonable to assume that the Cowboys would use Michael in some capacity if they activated, and the inherent logic of that was evidenced by the overwhelming number of outside observers (fans, writers, analysts, etc.) who came to that very conclusion. Claiming that such a belief is the product of bias simply doesn't pass the smell test.

 

[jurb26]

Btw where is randle? Haven't seen him in like a full quarter.

Good question. Where has he been?

 

[coolnerd]

Back to inactive next week?

You missed the part where dunbar injured his knee?

 

[gatorbait]

Btw where is randle? Haven't seen him in like a full quarter.

Maybe he's the new 3rd down back?

The bias was the 5-20 touches.

 

[Ketamine Dreams]

Saving him for the next crucial down.

 

[Loipz]

Bump McFadden

 

[stbugs]

Jason garrett is philbin in a Ronald McDonald wig

He is, that team is loaded with talent.

Of course, McFadden is back in, who we know can't break a play to help win the game. At least Randle showed he has that ability, but I guess he is done. I hate this mess and FF this year.

 

[SengerCJ]

Cowboys are under the impression he is the one that injured his knee and was carted off. Bumped Run DMC to RB1.

 

[Wadsworth]

Here it comes...

He was brought to get some looks in closing duty if it happened. Working into a RBBC was far fetched for this week.

 

[jurb26]

Yeah, he's not going to be inactive u less they for some bizarre reason sign another RB.

 

[bulger2holt]

There's more action in here than the Saints / Cowboys GDT
