[Mad Mike Martz]

Didn't see a thread on him in the first few pages, so I thought it would be better to start a new thread than bump an older one.

What do you guys think of him? He got 20 carries last week but only managed 35 yards. This guy has talent and it seems like the opportunity is about to come, so is now the time to buy? Or is he going to be one of those guys that get hyped every preseason then disappoint? The thing that scares me most is how bad the Cards are. That offense is not very good and Max Hall isn't someone that's going to keep 8 out of the box.

Personally I like him alot and have started to target him in a few leagues. Just want some opinions from the Shark Pool.

Despite monitoring/discussing the Ari running game for the last couple years, I still don't feel like I have a good sense of what is going on there. What I expect going forward is volatility and unpredictability. I was surprised that after speaking out publicly about role and having a chat with the coach, that Beanie received the bulk of the load. I was half expecting that to work against him not for him. I didn't see the game but on paper, he didn't exactly deliver the goods after the whole "put me in coach" thing.

I think you have a caretaker guy and a higher upside guy who both seem to have a knack for killing their own momentum (and playing time) for any number of reasons (fumbles, injuries or simply not getting the yardage). As a result you get this "back and forth" committee.

Should we post in this thread or the one you started two minutes earlier?
