Good question...2 -1 = 7
If Addai continues to get nicked, we're gonna see more of Keith, period. It's not about who's the "more aesthetic guy to play," it's about winning.oh, i agree with you there. I personally think when Addai is back that he is the guy. he is a better back than Keith despite what others have said in this thread. its not just the system. Keith will take a back seat and only spell Addai when Addai is back. I am only trying to say that Keith can and will get the job done if needed.thehornet=Look at it another way. Do his TD's and Receptions count? Those were early in the game when it was close. Probably not because it doesnt help your argument.=despite he fubard post.
He simply wont get those (with rare exceptions) when Addai is healthy.

To see his "nick"... go to the 1:07 mark: http://www.nfl.com/players/josephaddai/profile?id=ADD152616And week 1 he was blind side blasted in the back/rib on poor Manning throw.
Yeah, seems like a strange injury. Chest or shoulder? Seems like chest is the answer. Can't lift your arm? Hmmm.... Just seems odd IMO. Probably nothing, but like I said, we'll see after their bye, (and after this thread is 8 pages long.....)http://www.nfl.com/injuriesJoseph Addai RB Chest Questionable

Dont think he was criticized. His final result was splendid.The question is if the Colts will make this a RBBC (60/40 as some claim) based on todays late game production. Because it wasnt a question at all during the first 40 minutes of his game today. Most were missing JA's rushing (which likely incl the Colts) up until then.HULLOBUDMAN said:
I understand the question. The arguement made by some is that he had a bad YPC until the 4th quarter. My point is that lots of RBs YPC increase as the game goes on. I am not saying that it will be RBBC but the arguement that his early game YPC being low is the reason for it not to happen is not valid.
as it is obvious who picked up Keith.Realistically, Keith did NOT look good until the end of the game. It's great the the Colt have a solid backup, but if anyone really thinks KK is going to get nearly half the carries they aren't being reasonable.PantherPower said:pretty obvious who the Addai owners are in this thread...talk about denial.
Pretty much anyone living in Canada who has seen him torch up the CFL for the past 2-3 years knows exactly what he can do.
39) K.Keith left guard to TB 16 for 4 yards (D.Brooks, T.Jackson).52) K.Keith up the middle to TB 9 for 15 yards (T.Jackson, J.Phillips).
Did you write CFL??? Okay, Ya like everyone who watches the Arena league knows how great those players are too. How about the XFL??? How come you didnt mention that league. In case you havent noticed this league is called the NFL.
You can't judge if someone has talent if they are playing in a different league? The NCAA rules are different from the NFL rules, does that mean you can't judge if a player is any good if they are playin in the NCAA? And btw, i called it that Kenton was gonna have success too.
loving the thread, goodwork
I see big things for kenton keith
Addai's current injury and the desire to keep him healthy all year are more likely to lower his workload than anything Kenton did today. I would say that given his performance, however, the coaches figure to be less anxious about giving him a little more action than he saw in September. Does this translate to 85/15, 80/20? There's no reason to expect anything more than that -- and maybe less -- until we see it actually happen once Addai has fully recovered.as it is obvious who picked up Keith.Realistically, Keith did NOT look good until the end of the game.

The names are correct.
Carry on then.
Do you think BigSteelThrill ownes addai?
How about Turner in SD?Judge Smails said:
Their running game is good.
This is the NFL and he got 158 yards from scrimmage and 2 TD's in his first career start. I don't think it matters what league he played in before; he sure looked like an NFL RB yesterday. Considering that Addai is not the most durable RB around, Keith definitely has some value.

No - Morris was scoring TDs before Maroney got hurt, and Maroney wasn't scoring TDs. Addai scored 5 TDs in his 1st four games, and Keith wasn't getting many carries before yesterday (and no TDs before yesterday). Big difference.So basically Kenton Keith = Sammy Morris and Joseph Addai = Laurence Maroney.Welcome to hell, Addai owners, misery loves company and I saved a seat for you.
XIf you watched the game, you know this is a lie.
I'll give you one. Who ever starts there is
Exactly, switz is an obvious owner of addai. I've been saying this all along: Addai is a product of the Colts system. Addai is an average RB who seems a little brittle at this point of the season. He's good enough to produce in FF, so is KK so lets call it like it is. -Addai is the starter (when healthy)-KK is the backup, will spell Addai ocaasionally-no RBBC-KK may play down the stretch especially in the playoffs like in years past when the colts rest their starters.I'm holding onto KK for now but have the option to move him for a team need.
Obviously it depends on a team's composition, but in a vacuum:Addai: no wayKeith: in a heartbeatDespite the value of Keith if Addai is hurt, I'd still rather have a non-RBBC starter (even if he's within the lower half of feature backs) than a part-timer in a great offense.
If more time for Keith keeps Addai fresh and potentially makes the Indy offense even more effective (scary), might it still be a good thing for Addai owners? Might there be an increase in scoring efficiency which translates to even more Indy points, and therefore a win-win for Keith and Addai ownders?
