Anyone not like Eddie Lacy? (2 Viewers)

If I had him (been trying to get him)...I would.
Starks possibly out or limited.
Eddie will get plenty of work.

If Starks ends up being out or it seems like he'll be limited then Lacy should be a pretty big part of the game plan.

James Starks - RB - Packers
Coach Mike McCarthy said James Starks (hip) has looked good in practice this week.
"Hope he plays," McCarthy said. If Starks is able to go against the Broncos, neither he nor Eddie Lacy would be anything more than a high-end RB3. The Broncos are just as stingy against the run as they are against the pass.

plenty of work could still translate into 13 carries for 32 yards against that defence.

Not that I'm comparing Lacy to Charles and Peterson, but both of them had nice games against them. They've shut down some pretty bad offenses. This will be their first real test.
There's also a really good chance the GB defense creates some short fields. I imagine they'll try to get Lacy going in this one.

What are you talking about? How did I muck up the thread? I hadn't been in here in weeks. Find it, show us what you're talking about.
I tried to say that Lacey was becoming a fat-### and would not last long because of it. What in the world is wrong with that? There's been approx 3 pages of people saying the exact same thing.
But I am the one mucking up the thread?
Please, do your very best and show all of us some proof of your accusations. It's not hard to do.

The Denver air factor could play a part though. Lacy might pass out.

LOL!!! I hope not but I was thinking the same thingThe Denver air factor could play a part though. Lacy might pass out.
Exactly. I'm also not buying the "JUST WAIT TIL IT GETS COLD" argument. People are really reaching. Like Rodgers will stop throwing or something.

For anyone interested in current trade offers being received, was offered Brandon Marshall for him. Standard scoring, other guy is loaded at WR, probably hoping to hit on Lacy in the second half. Haven't decided to take it yet or not.

Eddie Lacy managed to be the one sperm cell that found the end zone that night. But wow.....that offense as a whole was downright bad. But all credit to the Denver defense. They are really really good.

Yes. I have to admit that, after watching that game, I had to do some serious re-evaluation. I really didn't know the numbers behind what Denver is doing to teams this year and Wolfe coming back has been a big help. They are simply loaded from front to back.
I think it also shows just how pedestrian (by their own standards) the Packers offense has been when you look at the numbers.
I believe people have taken some notice this week in that a lot of people are at least talking about benching Luck/Hilton, etc against the Broncos. That's insane because you'd think this is a drool-worthy shootout waiting to happen but it might just be the right decision.

Lacy has been bad, but the whole offence has looked pretty bad as of late. Starks had 5 carries for 9 yards last week.
In dynasty he still has value. In redraft not looking very good at all.

He's not worth anything right now, no choice but to hold and hope. Bust of the year.

And dynasty wise? He was never going to be any more than a one or two year flash in the pan. Hope he is doing his money, as he'll be out of the NFL come 2018. I'd bet a finger on this.

This guy is a big reason I won't win my league this year. I felt so good about his prospects for this season. Meanwhile I'm getting blown out because Lamar Miller is having a day--a guy who I could have drafted several rounds later.

Lacy left game with groin injury. Q to return
Wait !!!!!!
I was going to say TD !!! I hope Starks gets a freakin TD !!!!!

I think the best thin to happen right now is Lacy goes down. I have Starks and would be happy to start him based on what I've seen two of last 3 games. He's making plays. Eddie isn't. Don't need Lacy's presence muddying things up.

I think Lacy lost his job today with that fumble. RBBC at best for him moving forward.

Lacy left with a groin injury. Although Starks has looked much much better not only today but all season.

I have a bad cold, explosive diarrhea, an odd itching sensation in my groin area and had 8 beers and still outscored Lacy today.
He smells and I curse myself for drafting him.

I think one of Lacy's family members writes for Rotoworld. This Starks commentary is laughable.
Starks was the clear lead runner, especially after Eddie Lacy fumbled with five minutes remaining in the first half. However, the vast majority of his production came with the Packers playing catch up in the second half. There's been a window for Starks to seize No. 1 duties as Lacy struggles, but he's not good enough to do it. Although he's been better than Lacy, Starks is still averaging only 4.28 yards per carry. For now, Starks will be the 1A as Lacy tends to 1B duties, but Lacy should still ultimately be the No. 1 down the stretch.
