This isn't meant as a joke.I'm not going to lie, when montee ball went down on the first series, the first thing I thought about was you lol
You might want to consider seeking some therapy.

60/40 split with Thompson IMO.So what's his outlook for the fantasy playoffs? Low end RB2/flex?

Lol hilarious. You were dishing it all out on people that disagreed with your stance on ball's health this week, but you can't take it yourself lolThis isn't meant as a joke.

Because Thompson is such a superior runner60/40 split with Thompson IMO.So what's his outlook for the fantasy playoffs? Low end RB2/flex?
Yes really. And no one said anything about you hurting their egos just that, intentionally or otherwise, you are coming off as kind of a jerk in this thread. You also don't seem to be discussing football very much.Tone? Really?
And it's funny how those whose sensitivities are so delicate that their egos are damaged by a little adversarial discussion have no problem dishing out insults themselves in response.
For pete's sake, aren't we discussing football here? Let's have a little back and forth and have enough fortitude to do so and enjoy it - as long as it isn't personal. It's nice to see others allowed to be passionate in their position.
I have no issue owning when I'm wrong. Ball was still hurt, much more so than was portrayed by his practice performances - and it obviously fooled the coaches too, given how early they tried to insert him into the game, and then tried again. DEN clearly thought it was going to get Ball a significant portion of work before realizing he couldn't go. So I'll freely admit I completely misread the situation.Lol hilarious.

I'm looking back at my responses for the past few pages, and most related to the DEN running game and my opinion of how ineffective it is. There are 3 or 4 posts that are responses - like the one here to yours - to people taking the time to step completely away from the football discussion and creating a post solely to stick a barb in me. But unlike yours, and the couple others, they are responses and are not initiating the personal level into the conflict. But apparently you and others choosing to do so makes me the jerk in your mind. Well, whatever makes you feel good. Have a great day. I'll cease with the non-football crap.Yes really.

No worries. I am just an outside observer trying to shed some light, if you read my posts about CJ they are pretty much in line with yours.I'm looking back at my responses for the past few pages, and most related to the DEN running game and my opinion of how ineffective it is.

Good. Let's let bygones be bygones. Now back to Anderson. I'm seeing a guy who seems to excel in the passing game much moreso than the running game. Maybe that's what the DEN coaches see too. He doesn't seem to have much push and only seems to get what is blocked for him. So my real concern in having to start him this week is how hurt J Thomas is, since I see the uptick in his involvement in the passing game as a direct result of how limited DEN was at TE last week.No worries.

With both Sanders and Julius in doubt for this week I would think Den might at least try to go a little heavier with their ground game. Considering how inconsistent they have been it is a crap shoot how CJ will handle that type of game plan.Good. Let's let bygones be bygones.Now back to Anderson.

Isn't Thompson nursing a knee injury?I find it curious that even after Ball went down, Thompson barely played. No rushing attempts and only one reception/target. Agreed that Anderson needs to play better to keep the grip on this job, but given the fluctuations in this backfield, don't be shocked if Bibbs gets carries ahead of Thompson. I don't have any inside information, but reading the tea leaves tells me any active RB could emerge at any time in this backfield. They clearly like Bibbs, carrying him on the active roster to protect him from being sniped by the Bills. Sunday will be the first game he's active. Just saying...

Nobody is trying to define Anderson for life. We're having a discussion. If you just want to crunch numbers, I agree. But watching performance on the field allows for some information to make an evaluation. Shoot, by your standards we couldn't talk about any rookies until we were well into the season.You guys are talking about four plays:
3 13:18 1st-and-10 opp 38 rushed for 0 yards1 2:26 0 - 3 1st-and-10 opp 42 rushed for 1 yards1 0:00 0 - 10 1st-and-10 own 36 rushed for 1 yards2 13:07 0 - 10 1st-and-10 own 20 rushed for 1 yards3 7:48 2nd-and-1 own 22 rushed for 3 yards (first down)1 5:01 0 - 3 1st-and-10 own 21 rushed for 4 yards3 14:30 1st-and-10 own 30 rushed for 4 yards1 1:09 0 - 10 1st-and-15 own 15 rushed for 6 yards3 8:11 1st-and-10 own 13 rushed for 9 yardsHis sample size is still way too small even if you look at all of it. But if we're going to cherry-pick four plays we can prove anything we want to.
Adam Gase's game plan for Broncos offense focuses on running ball more
Adam Gase always has understood the criticism that comes with his job as the Broncos' offensive coordinator.
"I think when you have a full year where you average 38 points a game and then all of a sudden you score seven, it's a shell-shock deal for you," Gase said Thursday.
Gase was a wunderkind coach in 2013 when, in his first try as offensive coordinator, the Broncos set an NFL season scoring record with 606 points, averaging 37.9 per game.
He hasn't felt like a genius this week. The Broncos are coming off a 22-7 upset loss at St. Louis in which Gase's play calling broke down to 54 passes and nine rushes.
The offensive line has received the bulk of the blame for the Broncos' offensive struggles, although quarterback Peyton Manning pointed the finger at himself after losses to New England and St. Louis — and again Wednesday.
Gase was tough on himself Thursday.
"The first thing I can do is run the ball more," Gase said.
Duh.....Broncos OC Adam Gase he wants to run more.

Joique Bell, but just learned Bush is out so now I'm not so sure. Also benching Gio because of the uncertainty of his workload coming off the injury and Hill playing well.So uh who you guys starting Anderson over?
Ingram and with confidence.So uh who you guys starting Anderson over?
I have this feeling that I will regret not making room for Juwan Thompson in my lineup. I figure he will vulture a TD or two.
Benching him for Mason and Joique. Tough call.So uh who you guys starting Anderson over?
J. Thomas probably out / PPR league / both Dodds and Bloom have C.J over ForsettWow. Over Forsett???
I get the reasons. I have both in dyno and redraft. I think CJ has higher ceiling too.J. Thomas probably out / PPR league / both Dodds and Bloom have C.J over ForsettWow. Over Forsett???
I hear you though - I'm still not as confident as I should be on this.
he looks good and runs tough, that is for sure. He's not as shifty as Hillman but he still has good moves and is definitely not a plodder. Finds and hits the holes well.Anderson looks $$$ boys
I know Denver is in a battle today against a good D but with a power running game they are going to be tough in the playoffs, if their kicker doesn't kill them.how is this kid not starting since day 1? kid looks amazing and has looked good every time I see him.
40-time is over-rated. That's why he wasn't drafted. Of course, a lot of running backs have looked good in a Manning offense - James, Moreno, and now Anderson.Freaking stud!
I was so hoping he would break it all the way. I am done in my matchup and would have been up around 100 with my opponent having 4 good guys left. I'll take the extra 2.5 points regardless, but another TD would have been unbelievable.Oh man, was I ever close in my matchup if he tries to take that to the house.
As George Takei would say..."Oh my!"
Argh.
But this is great news. C.J. has taken over.
he running thru clear lanes and facing 6 man fronts. its a joke how easy manning makes it.Hendo said:how is this kid not starting since day 1? kid looks amazing and has looked good every time I see him.
And yet, Montee Ball can't do it.he running thru clear lanes and facing 6 man fronts. its a joke how easy manning makes it.Hendo said:how is this kid not starting since day 1? kid looks amazing and has looked good every time I see him.
