Swapped him in at Flex over Carlson. And I love Carlson. 20 touches, 100 total yards, 1 TD.Anyone rolling with him? If so, over what?
Switched him in over Michael Bush. I have Ronnie Brown starting with Mike Bell/Pierre Thomas and Willie Parker on the bench with Bush.Anyone rolling with him? If so, over what?
No one seems to know as he was not on the injury report all week. On pure speculation, I am guessing this is not injury related (as that is a fineable situation here if it were).Why is Charles inactive?
I had the same choice...I chose Jamal Lewis against a weak Denver run defense.I don't trust LJ yet. He needs to show me...and Oakland's run defense is suprior to Denver's.I am rolling with LJ in a few other leagues as a flex though...but to start him over Lewis...I say Lewis's match up is way better.makes LJ an interesting play - but after watching the Charger/Raider game 3 times since Monday, that Oakland defense is extremely tough and nothing like those terrible Oak defenses LJ tore up 3-4 years ago.Still, I'm plugging him in over Jamal Lewis in one of my leagues. The touches should be there at the very least.
Also Welker was a late scratch...both the Pats and the team with a former Pat FO person in charge...are they playing game with the IR when the NFL levied fines this week...why?David Dodds said:No one seems to know as he was not on the injury report all week.

I agree - I just think LJ's greatly increased role due to Charles' last minute absence makes him at least a coin flip with Jamal.GL - hopefully both have big weeks.I had the same choice...I chose Jamal Lewis against a weak Denver run defense.I don't trust LJ yet.

Savage is looking good in his place. Could be why.More importantly for LJ, Haley admitted they need to feed him more. I dont think it matter if the third down guy is Charles or Savage.rock753 said:Why is Charles inactive?
that's what I'm wondering? did a google search and couldn't find anything nobody knows. Chiefs mb aren't even speculating- http://www.chiefscrowd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10215Was there ever an official word on the reason?
Charles was inactive against the Raiders, in effect trading places with Savage, who didn't play in Baltimore. Charles said Monday that the coaches haven't told him why he didn't play against Oakland."I still don't even know," he said.
Certainly hurts his value as a handcuff, probably means I'll be dropping him with bye week issues coming up, and hoping that if something does happen to LJ then he or Savage would still be on the WW.Charles was inactive against the Raiders, in effect trading places with Savage, who didn't play in Baltimore.

Yea I was hoping to stash Charles until later this season. Now I have guys like Choice staring me in the face on the waiver wire.Well, either way Charles is hitting the WW - say hello to Forsett![]()
