***Official Rock Cartwright won me a championship thread *** (1 Viewer)

The Rock is a bowling ball. You will roll thru the competition. :)

On the other hand, he does play for Washington.

Whos cartwright? Im cartwright.

CARTWRIGHT! Four!

This will be Ryan Moats part II. I'm jumping in. Are you? Any other possible threats for carries?
I bet they'll sign Marcus Mason - I think he can be just as productive as Cartwright if something happens to him/play his way into a committee.
Agreed. Yesterday's as good as it will get for Rock (and it was pretty good). But, I doubt he sees that many touches again barring an in-game injury. After Betts went down in-game, they had to adjust and give Rock most of the touches. Ganther probably can't run too many things since he hasn't been here as long. With a full week's prep, I think the plan will be 50-30-20 with Rock-Mason-Ganther. Mason should know the offense well enough to get several touches. I wish they'd get Sellers some more touches, but they seem to be opposed to that.
 
If Rock is your last hope to win a championship then start studying for 2010 season.
While I agree, I don't think it's because Rock isn't a good player...it's because the Skins will continue to be mediocre. I will say that -when- Rock has gotten carries, I think he's looked good. He made a few people miss in the open field Sunday, and that's more than I can say for Betts or Portis, who couldn't typically GET to the open field. I have no issue with Rock being the starter, but expect Redskins RB numbers from him.
 
Why cant this guy be a legit RB2 in PPR leagues?
because he isn't better than Betts or Portis and they weren't legit RB2s
Portis has been nothing even CLOSE to an RB2 this year. Betts didnt get much work this year. i dont really know how you can make such claims.
Well you just said yourself that Portis hasn't been a 2 and Cartwright was 3rd on the depth chart. What makes you think he's better than the other two?

That's his point. Portis and Betts are ahead of him on the depth chart which typically means they're better players and they weren't successful. He's wondering why you think a player of inferior talent would be successful where more talented players weren't.

Will you guys please stop making sense? Afterall, this is a "fantasy" football board. :lmao:
 
Julius Jones, Justin Forsett

Willie Parker, Mewelde Moore

Thomas Jones, Leon Washington

Chris Brown, Steve Slaton

If depth charts really meant who have more talent instead of who gets more favoritism, than the latter guys would be starting. Albeit, Mendenhall is the starter and Leon is in IR, but you get the idea.

I'm sure there are some other backup running backs who are more deserving of this thread than Rock. Not only does he play for the Skins, but Portis has a month to recover before FFL championships and I doubt he loses his job. Redskins RBBC for the championship!

Not really. Forsett still needs to learn to block better to be an everydown back. Mewelde? He's alright but he's best utilized as a 3rd down back due to his blocking and receiving skills. Better to keep him in that role. Thomas Jones has been great in NY despite everyone wanting to throw him on the scrap heap for the past 4 years. And Slaton had the starting gig before he couldn't hang on to the ball. There's much more to being an NFL RB than simply fantasy stats.
 
Heck - if he can catch 6 or balls every game, I'll take the results of that for my flex guy any carries are icing.

I'm on board in my two PPR leagues. WTF - I dropped Moats in both leagues to pick him up.

If Portis is done, then that week 14 game against Oakland might produce some good numbers from Cartwright. That's the first week of the playoffs for some, or the last game of the season which might be just as important depending on peoples records.

It's also possible that NFL coaches know a little more about football than we do.

Im saying he might not be.
 
I've always liked Rock Cartwright. Week 14 @OAK is the only week he'll be a quality starting option. He can help you advance, but could you start him v NYG or Dallas weeks 15 & 16?
