If Westbrook is out this week (1 Viewer)

I have yet to be impressed by McCoy. In the preseason he looked very sharp, but is only averaging about 3.6 ypc this year. He will get a full workoad if Westbrook is out, making him in intriguing option, but should we temper expectations vs the NYG?

My guess is about 14 carries for 60 yards, 4-6 catches for 40 yds. Possibly a short Td run.

I would rank him about RB 15 this week.

 
I'd guess around 70 total yards and a TD.

As a Celek owner, Westbrook's absence in blitz pickups is going to keep Celek in on passing downs, like last week. :thumbdown:

 
F'ing Westbrook's injuries killed me for years as his owner, now his injuries kill me as my opponent this week had no flex starter except for McCoy. Ah, the nuances of fantasy football.

good point...can any other eagle fans confirm that this is how things will work?

I need help too if this is the case. Have Shockey as a good alternative. Anyone?
 
I'm starting him as a flex only because my other option is Louis Murphy. I don't think Shady has shown the decisiveness to be effective in the way Laurence Maroney has struggled. He's always trying to make a move rather than hit the hole quickly and run through a little contact. Maybe he'll do that today with enough carries, but I haven't seen it all year.

I expect 50 yards rushing and 30 yards receiving.

I have submitted this question to FF Now on ESPN2. Let's hope we get an answer there!
