I'm not sure of this statement...With Dillon playing in Cinn, the team he left to go to the Pats, I see him wanting to play a stellar game.

I agree with The Mechanic. It is going to take a lot to keep Dillon out of this weekend's game.

Not sure what Dillon has to prove, he has a ring, the bengals don't. Isn't that scoreboard enough?

I predict a lot of Shaun Alexander owners will start Maroney this week.

Dillon will get the majority of the work. His neck stinger ain't bothering him and he's not on the injury report. I see retribution coming.

What would Lemmy do?
No way. Dillon is going to be out to make a statement. Whether he does or not is certainly in question, but he definately is gonna be pumped up for this game.

Why?IIRC, and I say this as a Dillon fan as of late, Wasn't Dillon pretty much the ######## in the Cincy situation? Dillon has matured and grown up since he's been a Patriot, wasn't it Dillon who caused all of his problems in Cincy, and not the other way around? Maybe I forgot, that's what I remember.

I predict that I am one of them. Unless I chicken out and Play Deshaun Foster. Nah! Maroney it is!

I am starting Maroney, but I think Dillon plays for sure this week.
I still like Maroney a lot. In a game where The Bengals should score a lot, I like Maroney to get 100 combined yards and a TD. I figure Maroney gets 35 yards rushing and the remaining 65 yards receiving.

It has nothing to do with him being a #### or who's fault it was that he left Cincy IMO, players LOVE to play their former teams, there's more of an adreniline rush. I'm sure Dillon wants to show Cincy he's still a good RB. If Dillon has any say he's going to do his best to run over Cincy.

Maroney is also returning kickoff's, so if your league counts those, that is another reason to use him this week. he has been averaging @ 60 return yds a week.

We don't get return yards, only TDs :(

Bummer, but there are leagues that do, and he has been getting 6 pts a week in return yds. Combine that with whatever he may get rushing or receiving, and he should put up some decent numbers, in those leagues.

I think the Dillon vs. the Bengals thing is overdone at this point. Oh sure, if it were the first time he played them after joining the Pats then I can see the motivation. It's a different team now and time has passed.

As a member of Patriot Nation and Maroney owner in two leagues, I cringe every time I see him back there returning KO's.Two words - Jason Seahorn

Beleive me, Im with you on that. It's ridiculous.Anyhow, I dont see anything changing in this situation. They should continue to split carries evenly.

Maroney is one of those guys with talent in the right system close to the right time that i just have this hunch he's gonna be good for a long time there. i love his skill sets and everything about him and honestly i'd take him right now as a top 5 RB in a dynasty league when hes the unquestioned starter.
