The Dude

Any news on how playing time will go this weekend? Is Bradshaw expected to play? Is Jacobs going to be relied on? How about the new guy (is it Ware?)?

 
From Rotoworld:

Ahmad Bradshaw (ankles) remains in a walking boot and has not yet been cleared to play.

The Giants are holding out hope that he'll be cleared by Sunday, but it's looking like a long shot with both lower legs banged up. D.J. Ware is still recovering from a concussion sustained last Thursday, so Gartrell Johnson could end up as the No. 2 back against the Cowboys.

dont worry, Dude, the team with Jacobs in your league is not exactly salivating at the prospect of starting him.
 
With 53 seconds left in the quarter, Ware left the game with a concussion and didn't return.

"I'm good, just got my bell rung a little bit," said Ware, who accounted for 27 of the Giants' 57 rushing yards. "I knew where I was, I knew what I was doing, it just kind of jolted me a little bit. We'll see about (playing) next week."

Even if Ware is healthy, Coughlin will have to ponder the same thing.

With the attention on concussions ho knows if he would be held out of next week's game as a precaution...

 
Can someone please explain to me what the hell has happened to Jacobs this year?He has been killing me this season.
It could be worse. You could have him in TWO leagues, like I have him. I think I will avoid duplication in the future.

30 TD's between Jacobs and Lendale last year...and I think they have four between them this year. The Ultimate lesson in going back to the well too many times.
 
Both Ware and Bradshaw look like a no go against Dallas. This could is good opportunity for Jacobs to redeem himself

Gut feeling I think Jacobs breaks out this week. Goes for at least 2 TDs and 150 yards
Fri, Nov 27Jacobs carried 11 times for 27 yards in Thursday's 26-6 loss at Denver.Advice: The Giants' pathetic rushing attack finished with 57 yards. While the offensive line has clearly taken several major steps back, the same could be said for Jacobs. Once one of the most feared running backs in the NFL, Jacobs has turned the act of handing him the ball into the equivalent of a throwaway down for New York's offense. Jacobs has also struggled with his blitz pickups, but that has thankfully not affected fantasy owners as much as his awful rushing totals.(STATS, Inc.)

Said it was a gut feeling, what else do you want? :towelwave:
 
It's Jacobs or Forsett for me. If Julius gives it a go, then I'm going with Jacobs for sure. If Julius is out, I'll pick the wrong guy to start.

 
I thought I was set at RB this year with Jacobs and Barber as my starters. All I can do now is :) . And shortly there after :cry:

 
Good news for all the Jacobs owners, in a small league with crazy bench requirements, I cut Jacobs Sunday for FJackson. Start Jacobs with no fear, he should have a career week since I finally cut the first round draft selection (yeah, i picked second to last in the first round).

 
i'm thinking about dropping bradshaw to get a little QB insurance for the playoffs (i have schaub and palmer). is bradshaw done essentially? he's been battling injuries in both legs and with the way the giants are playing and jacobs' performance last week, why rush him back? homers have any insight?
