I didn't come anywhere close to saying that. Just don't understand how coaches can leave their franchise QB's in a blowout and risk injury for no reason. Coughlin obviously isn't that concerned with long-term team preservation. It looks like Jennings took a pretty hard hit just before they pulled him so if anything there is an injury concern that forced him to leave the game and possibly changed their mind to rest him, nothing Coughlin did proactively to try and save him for rest of the season. Say! congrats on earning a bunch of dbag points though

Plus Cousins #### all over himself in the 3rd quarter and there was no reason to put him in with a big lead. If it was actually a game Jennings would have been in. Personally I blame Cousins.

I have LABORED through many games against guys like Peyton Manning and Drew Brees DEEP into the fourth quarter while their teams were comfortably ahead. Pulling out a quarterback in the third quarter is an unwritten sign of disrespect. They typically stay in until the mid fourth before being yanked. Replacing a running back who is only 3 days removed from 34 carries in a game that was clearly secured is far from out of the question. This a 16 game season and the Giants care very little about the fantasy ramifications. Anyone who is phishing for controversy will no doubt hook their lines to a boot, tire, or shopping cart. In other words, there is nothing of substance there.

Good to know there are some clowns out there down on him after last night. Makes sense to make a couple low ball offers in leagues I don't own him.

He had 34 carries in the last game and was playing in a short week. The team said they would work Williams in more this week to take some load off of Jennings after being overused last week.
It's far more likely for a RB to wear down or get injured than a QB - you are making this far more difficult than it is.

I should have just led with this, but this is what cvnpoka does. Last year after a Bengals game he was doing the same thing in the Dalton thread. He was calling for Dalton to be benched so the Bengals could sign Josh Freeman to come in and start, because he threw a better deep ball than Dalton.
Edit. I guess we should actually thank him. If it wasn't for people over reacting to one game, we wouldn't be able to buy low or sell high.

It was a perfect game for Williams to get some experience. The Giants had control of the game from the start, and there was no need to keep Jennings out there after he ran the ball 30+ times just a few days prior. Jennings also already seems to have a good grasp of the offense, but some of the others (including Eli) needed the reps to continue to gel in their new offensive scheme.

Actually you did. If you care to see it go back to the Andy Dalton can't throw a deep ball it is on the first page. You reference that Alex Smith is worse than Dalton, but Freeman should get a shot over Dalton. Keep over reacting, and good luck.
oh ya i just checked. the thread where you said that vincent jackson was as good as aj green. ya, fun times.
at least i quickly backed off on freeman when it was clear he had regressed immensely. you couldnt remotely defend the vjax vs green position but that didnt stop you from childishly dismissing anyone that disagreed.

Jennings 35 of first 52 snaps.
Williams 28 of final 29 snaps.
The Giants are down on Jennings, obv. Or they were winning big in their second game in five days and Jennings was near 50 combined touches. One of those.

Let's see:
1. Giants play Sunday and Jennings has 34 touches
2. Giants state Wednesday that they will limit Jennings touches in Thursday game 4 days later.
3. To make the decision even easier, Giants blow out Redskins by halftime.
3. Giants limit Jenning touches.
Shocking....shocking I say.

Actually I said he was a tier below him, and lots of people agreed with me and the stats backed it up. Anyways i am done with you and not clogging up this thread. Good luck

heres the thing, you could go back through every single posters history and find a place where they were very wrong. in this instance, i barely defended the dalton vs freeman thing. i made a long list of qbs i preferred to dalton and then mentioned freeman in another post. it was just a throwaway comment and i made a solid list he wasnt even on it. its not like i went on and on defending it and spouting off. not that it should really matter as ive staunchly defended a way worse position many other times. mebbe you should dig those up. i guess it really offended you and i apologize as it seemed an innocuous position but i guess not.
but you just cant let it go. its really really weird. youve seriously followed me around and mentioned it in every thread ive posted in for over a year. that is very disturbing behavior. given your weird obsession with making me look bad, i gotta think ive been pretty accurate as that is the only poor position (and it really wasnt even a big error) you have been able to repeat.
nope. these were your words.

oh wait, did you change your position later? kinda like i did on freeman when i said he was mentally shot and i would no longer take him?
nope, you made this snarky remark
http://forums.footballguys.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=695929&page=1#entry16099732These are just stats but they both are the best receivers on their teams.
AJ Green - 3026 yards 23 touchdowns since he came into the league.
V. Jax - 3034 yards 21 touchdown in the same time.
Weird
then when it finally became clear that everyone disagreed with you, you lied about the position you had held and did so in a demeaning manner while still maintaining they were similar in ability.

maybe you can finally put this silly vendetta of yours to rest.

Last night hurt as a Jennings owner, but as the Giants were pulling away and he was fresh off of almost 40 touches 4 days prior, I get it.
The only thing that really got me
was when he dropped an easy TD pass and when he wasn't in for the 1st and goal from 2 to start the 4th... I mean cmon, give him a chance to carry it in.
Jennings is obviously the lead dawg in that backfield, and if this game was closer, the split would've been a lot more lopsided.

How about both cvnpoka and msudaisy just shut up and piss in each others pool via PM?
heres the thing. i dont attack people. i dont insult people. i dont follow people from thread to thread and point out instances where they were wrong from years ago.
i state opinions about what is going on in football and fantasy football. i dont do so in a condescending manner despite being attacked by many people who take my comments out of context and blow them out of proportion.
you can look through my post history and you will find that i provide statistics and facts to support my positions and to dispute misguided posts. but, unlike many on here, when i take a contrary viewpoint i dont attack the other poster nor act snarky and demeaning. mebbe i should.

There was 6:39 left in the 3rd quarter when he dropped that pass. He was back in the game at 5:38 with a 7 yard gain on the Washington 35. The Giants scored on that drive and Jennings was done for the night. The Giants scored again at the end of the 3rd quarter, and the game was out of control by then. They would score one more time in the 4th quarter.

Thanks for this. I was just about to post that. Jennings is the best RB on this team at the moment by a good margin. The drop was bad, but you are under the assumption it is why he did not play much after it which is completely false.

That's not accurate.Insein said:
There were plenty of rumblings earlier this week about the Giants' plans to limit Jennings'. Jennings owners got dinged for the week, but shouldn't really be surprised.
I don't see this becoming a full blown RBBC, but I do think Williams earned more playing time and am concerned that he'll become the Giants' TD vulture.
Before last night, I barely considered handcuffing Jennings and Williams. Now, I think it's a no-brainer if you can still get him.

He couldn't get his hands up in time after pushing the Redskins defender down, cut him some slack.fantasycurse42 said:Last night hurt as a Jennings owner, but as the Giants were pulling away and he was fresh off of almost 40 touches 4 days prior, I get it.

Outside of week 1 against the Lions, who have one of the best D lines in the league i might add, he's averaging 4.5 yards per carry.
You Jennings owners are in denial if you don't have some concern. Williams is starting to show that he may be an option in the meaningful part of games.
I am not saying Jones is not the clear 1
Am I saying there is a real possibility that Williams will get more carries next week than he did in games 1-3. And maybe even steal a drive or a TD or two.

So who should we worry about?
Jennings because he didn't get a lot of work in the second half of a blow out?
Williams because their is a possibility that he will see more action then he did in weeks 1 - 3
Or this Jones character, who you aren't saying isn't the clear cut number 1?

Did anyone see the actual play and how bad it looked?
I don't own Jennings or Williams, just curious if this is looking like a multiple week thing or not.

Lol. Unthinkabl..got to pay attention to more than box scores.....lol
This is completely missing the point he was trying to make. He's calling it a time share because of two games. In game A he was rested since it was on a THU after rushing 35 times the week before and they had the game won by halftime. In game B he gets outscored because he's injured.

Before he got hurt:
Player A - 10/55 & 2/17
Player B - 5/14 & 0/0
Who would you rather have?
