RB Chase Brown, CIN (3 Viewers)

[Crash Davis]

Everyone sitting him means he’s going off tonight.

I've been sitting him since week 2 and pretty much every move I've made this year has turned to crap like some reverse Midas. His futility seems immune to jinxes and Murphy's law.

 

[Dez]

I am calling it this is going to be Brown's break out game.

12 PPR pts

 

[elbowrm]

Oh he looks good on this run! (Wait it’s Perine).

What a brutal drop that was. (Now that’s Brown!)

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Dropped a ball that would have probably gotten 30+ yards.

 

[BlackCrowes]

he's in his head. confidence problem

 

[Smack Tripper]

WAYYYYYYYYYY too much Perine...

 

[dickey moe]

I didn't watch much Bengals football last season, nor have I this season. What happened with the Bengals OL between last season and this season?

 

[Schmeabs]

This guy is dooming my fantasy football team

 

[Doubles]

His 27 yard run was so monumental, the bengals took a timeout after it. They probably had to save the ball.

 

[BlackCrowes]

it....is....alive

 

[brewer]

Amazing what he can do with a little space.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

That earlier drop still stings but it’s so nice seeing him run with some juice. Keep Perine away!

 

[higgins]

I am also starting JCM over him. Hopefully works better than last week.

I’m starting Bill and Brown.

Ditto , let’s go!

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Seriously why is Perine in so much.

 

[Smack Tripper]

I can't believe they are giving this old slug Perrine run

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Brown subbed out in the red zone hurts my soul.

 

[Pietaster2]

Brown subbed out in the red zone hurts my soul.

It really throws a wet blanket on what should be a long overdue good outing.

 

[Uncle Leo]

11.1 in PPR league.

AJ might be the worst Brown after tonight.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Over 100 yards rushing on 10 carries. Maybe feed him more?

 

[ShamrockPride]

Over 100 yards rushing on 10 carries. Maybe feed him more?

No, no, then they have no snaps left for Perine the Great.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Over 100 yards rushing on 10 carries. Maybe feed him more?

No, no, then they have no snaps left for Perine the Great.

Like is Perine some elite pass blocker? There is no excuses for him to be snagging so many touches.

 

[irish eyes]

Everyone ease up on the Chase Brown love. He is up against the pathetic Steelers.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Everyone ease up on the Chase Brown love.

We will not.

 

[Dez]

I am calling it this is going to be Brown's break out game.

12 PPR pts

Scored exactly 12 pts in my leagues

108 rushing
2 catches - 8 yards

 

[fatness]

Of course he does this after I drop him to pick up Vidal (in a small roster short bench league).

 

[RenegadeRoy]

Sell "high"

 

[TheWinz]

Sell "high"

No, Sir. Here are the teams he's faced in his first 7 weeks:
CLE - #1 vs the run
GB - #4 vs the run
DEN - #8 vs the run
DET - #11 vs the run
JAC - #14 vs the run
PIT - #15 vs the run
MIN - #23 vs the run
6 out of 7 games vs the top half

Here are his next 9 weeks:
NYJ - #18 vs the run
CHI - #31 vs the run
bye
PIT - #15 vs the run
NE - #3 vs the run
BAL - #21 vs the run
BUF - #32 vs the run
BAL - #21 vs the run
MIA - #30 vs the run
ARI - #16 vs the run
3 out of 9 games vs the top half

If you've held this long, why sell now? And how much did he actually appreciate in a single game with only 11 carries?

 

[JohnnyU]

It's ALIVE!!!

 

[Proteus]

Sell "high"

You mean sell WHILE high?

 

[in2win]

The offense is much better with Flacco running it. Did I just say that?

Good days ahead for Chase but the o line still isn't great.

 

[Mitchie]

Nice to see a decent outing but if he's getting yanked at the GL and not getting receptions, upside seems quite limited.

 

[JohnnyU]

I agree the OL isn't great, but they looked like the 90s Cowboys OL last night.

 

[ponchsox]

His arrow is pointing slightly up with Flacco, but will this guy ever get in the end zone?

 

[Payne]

I would trade him ASAP if I owned him anywhere.

Yeah I've got shares of J. Chase, Brown and Higgins everywhere. This schedule looks ridiculous.

Also, take a look at BALT's schedule.

Buy all your Bengals and Ravens NOW.

 

[cheese]

Nice to see a decent outing but if he's getting yanked at the GL and not getting receptions, upside seems quite limited.

I think he has a chance to reclaim GL, but Perine is so much better in the pass game and they have spent a lot of time down big and Taylor is already a pass heavy coach. That's going to limit the snaps between the 20s. To my eyes, Brown should easily be the better option on short yardage and goal line.

 

[mustard]

Sleeper has Brown at 14.50 last night, 108 rushing yards, 2 catches for negative 8 yards. That doesn't math, does it?

Well in all fairness…

Math is hard.

 

[ponchsox]

I would trade him ASAP if I owned him anywhere.

He’s still a RB3/flex for me. Unless he’s catching 5 balls and scoring an occasional TD, his ceiling remains low. At least Flacco looks competent to move the ball a lot better than Browning.

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Weird. I was told that the Tahj Brooks revolution was about to happen…..yet he got zero touches.

Bengals OL is terrible. Chase Brown isn’t the problem.

 

[3nOut]

I am happy with Brown as my RB3 so I am not looking to trade him. For those who suggest that, what do you realistically expect to get in return?

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Lots of pros from last night but the cons irk me. That first drop that would have likely gone for 30+ yards and then the amount of snaps Perine took from him, especially in the RZ.

 

[bryhamm]

I don't even know what to say about CB. The OL is a disaster, obviously the QB downgrade is enormous but most of all his usage in the passing game makes no sense to me. Dude is a high-end receiving RB and he isn't getting nearly the looks he did last year. You'd think for a QB as bad as Browning is, that you'd want to feature more easy dump offs and screens to your dynamic RB. Especially when the OL is so brutal.

Yep. He's going to my bench for now.

He is back in my starting lineup now that Flacco is there and the offense looks like it can do something.

With injuries to McLaurin and others, I too am starting Brown again. I liked the O WAY more with Flacco, I just hope Brown does enough to keep Perine away (As sad as that is to have to rely on).

Can Brown keep the momentum going vs. a bad Jets team?

With Bymageddon it's become what can Brown do for you?

I took byemageddon as the opportunity to unload him to a team that would have had to pick up a RB off waivers. Got McConkey in return to cover my own WR bye/injury issues. Happy to trade one disappointment for another and let Brown be someone else's problem.

 

[kyoun1e]

Need to decide on Brown vs. J. Mason before tmrw night's game. Torn.

 

[ponchsox]

Can Brown keep the momentum going vs. a bad Jets team?

I think his floor is definitely higher with Flacco. Back into low RB2 territory, but still not what we wanted when we drafted him.

 

[brewer]

I have pick 2 of Brown, Mason and Bill, at the moment Bill is on the bench but I think all 3 are pretty similar risks at the moment.
