Alford Morris... How will he do with Mccoy at QB (1 Viewer)

[CanaBuc]

So this is the big question for me. It was very clear from earlier in the year that while RG 3 was under center, Alfred Morris is caries and his production was significantly better than when he was with a different quarterback. He has had one and a half games with colt McCoy under center. One of those games he had good production and the other one was below average.

I am curious as to how people think he will perform this week and rest of season with a different quarterback under center. Will the lack of a zone read auction play limit his upside? Will the offense be better and hands they will stay in closer games and he will have more rushing opportunities? Please chime in and give me your opinion.

He'll be fine. The difference in his production wasn't qb related. That was more coincidence. Morris is a must-start this week against Indy.

I have concerns. Gruden offense works best with a pass catching back.

Historically Morris was more than a yard per carry better with RG3.

Game flow might dictate them needing to pass as they will be playing catch up.

That favors Helu .

Where would you rank him this week against potent offence?

Is he better than Jennings? CJ? Denard ? This week? ROS?

I think the threat of RG3 did help him, but if you listen to some quotes from Alfred this past month, he acknowledged he is running much better than he was earlier in the year. Said he was trying to do too much, was going back to basics or something, and he's clearly been much better the last 4 games, scoring between 15 and almost 25 points per game in my PPR scoring leagues. I'd continue to ride him.

What happened today? 8 carries for 6 yards with a long of 12?
