There were 48 offensive plays in the game for the Bills on Monday Night. Fred Jackson attempted 15 rushes and he was targeted 7 times for a total of 22 attempted touches. Thus, he was the target of 46% of their offensive scheme - exactly double that (percentage wise) of Ronnie Brown in his first game.

Not arguing at all with your numbers - but doesn't the flow of the game and the score play as much into that as anything? Buff was ahead the whole game - stands to reason they'd run more = more touches for Jackson, naturally. Mia was never in the game - stands to reason they may not be able to run as much = less touches for Brown...I'm not necessarily trying to defend Brown here - I thought Jackson looked great. I'm just saying be careful about making too many comparisons based only on the % of plays/touches one particular played had in a game vs. another in a separate game. Apples-Oranges.

Completely agree with your points about the flow of the game and the score being a determining factor in overall touches for RBs vs. WRs. Nothing really to argue other than I personally think he should receive more touches based on the talent I believe he has shown in the past.I feel like with this weeks game being on MNF hopefully they will better attempt to showcase their elite talents. Plus, ALL of us SP geeks will have a better chance to really, really see what he's got and then analyze with more knowledge. We will hopefully know a whole lot more about him and his situation after Monday night's game. Stay tuned...

Totally agree as well. I'm a Brown owner and trying to figure out (like everyone else) what to do with him. I have no particular loyalty to him - he just fell to me in my auction and i thought the value was too good to pass up. I think/hope they should give him more touches as well - but hoping and reality are two different things. So, we are agreeing - and like you, I'm waiting to see him again to get a better handle on how he's going to be used going forward..

Ronnie Brown is on Jim Rome later today. Let's get some jungle karma for this guy, or a few carries would probably suffice.

Update?

He's going to make me regret sitting him tonight vs the Jets. It's unreal how talented this guy is.

Just out of curiosity, who did you sit him for?

I had MJD and Moreno in my lineup. (and Gore hurt, and Bradshaw blew up on my bench).I no longer have a problem starting Brown vs anyone. (The biggest problem is going to be figuring out which 2 RB's to start each week now).

Ronnie runs the wildcat so effectively and he and Ricky are a perfect tandem. The thing about the Wildcat is you need two top notch backs and you need one of them to have the hands and the quick decision-making of a QB--that's a rare combination.

I still say Raider's have the required combo with M. Bush (who used to be a QB) and McFadden who ran it in college.

With my own eyes, I think Ronnie Brown is the 2nd best back after AP right now. Watching some of his 2 yard runs (which would be possible 5 yard losses for other RBs) is more fun than watching some guy run a straight-liner through the middle untouched for a 50 yard TD.

I didn't see the game but the stats did not look good. Homers or others who watched the game...was this as ugly as it appears? So much for Ronnie getting lots of carries...

Watched every play. It was not encouraging, but I would not throw in the towel just yet. That game was an absolute disaster for the Fins offense. Every time they got anything going they turned it over. The OL (which should be a strength) got abused all day. Ronnie ran OK. Nothing special. Ricky looked at least as good when given the opportunity. It was not a good game for Ronnie's fantasy value.That said, I see him as a good buy low. I think Ronnie owners everywhere are probably freaking out right now. The truth is, he remains the team's best offensive weapon. He is a good receiver and their best pure runner. The team will base every gameplan on playing solid D, and running the football. The OL should bounce back. There is a lot of talent and a ton of money on that OL. Sparano is a former OL coach. I have to believe there will be a massive improvement over what we saw yesterday.If I did not have as much faith in the coaching staff as I do, I would be more concerned. However, I feel that they will right this ship. If you look over Ronnie's career, I bet you will see that he is awful in weeks 1 and 2 every season, including his awesome 7 week season in 2007. He did all that damage starting in week 3. The staff is not stupid - they know he is their best playmaker. I still see him geting 18-25 touches per game in the games where Miami can stay in it. This one was 19-0 in the 4th, and Ronnie was pretty much out of the gameplan. Buy low!

Your post just gave NUMEROUS reasons to sell Ronnie Brown while you can still can...yet your clear homerism (nothing wrong with that) says to buy low.Why on earth would we want to buy low?Terrible team - are there reasons to think they'll improve a great deal? Not in my eyes.Stuck in a rbbc with Ricky - we have never had reasons to think that will end - just speculation. Believe what you see. O-line is awful - okay, this is the one area I think will turn around, though they looked lousy in the preseason.I don't want to overreact to week one, but some things are a trend...it's better to sell while you can before the value totally vanishes. I'd sell right now if you can get reasonable value. Let someone else think they're "buying low" while in my opinion you're really selling before it gets lower.

This one was my favorite.
