Can Sammy Morris be trusted (1 Viewer)

I am happy to see Morris starting in his lineup. Don't you think the Bills will shut down the Dolphins rushing attack? Doesnt Morris give up a few carries to other backs?

Who's their other backs?

 

[Chaser1439]

I think Minor has a small role.

Uh.... the Bills have the #31-ranked defense vs. the run.

Why in the world would you think the Bills will suddenly shut down the run this week? The Dolphins will try to control the ball today and rely on their defense, meaning ALOT of carries by Morris.

Sounds like some wishful thinking on your part.

The more important question is, " is his role Minor? "

After losing Portis, Kevin Jones, and Maroney (for this week at least), I decided to roll the dice with Morris. Looks like I should have gone with Barber. Over thinking again. Damn.

very I agree Morris is in for a BIG day against the Bills

Why is your championship game in week 15? I'm just curious about the thinking behind shortening your season an extra game.

my opponent is starting Sammy Morris over Deuce McCallister.

I'm glad i'm not making that decision.

He can't be relied upon- even against the Bills. The Bills held Cedric Houston/Leon Johnson in check- Sammy Morris is a comprable RB situation.

He is a good risk/reward play. If there is a goal line scenario (IE 5 yards or less), the Dolphins will likely get in on the ground.

Ronnie Brown in this situation could be relied upon.

Morris is a decent RB2 play, but not trustworty.

The Jets RB's split carries.

I agree, Sammy is a big risk/reward today. I'm benching him over Dillon, unless Maroney is playing. And then there is Saban. Who knows what's gonna happen there. Sometimes he calls like 8 passes in a row.

The Jets RB's split carries.

The Jets were behind fairly early too, which means they leaned heavier on the pass.

The Jets RB's split carries.

The JETS combo gained 105 yds on 25 carries with 0 tds. Morris should accomplish similar numbers- decent RB2 numbers.
