Surprised to not see any Martin or Richardson threads (1 Viewer)

[lukinrats]

I can't believe that there are not threads to panic about D.Martin or TRich. Both of them put up dud performances. However, it seems that everyone outside of Peterson did the same thing. Still, between Spiller, Martin, TRich, Lynch, Rice.....................................................................and OMG as I was typing this David Wilson fumbles..........................MFGDBSFF!!!!!!

I give up, just a terrible day for RBs after everyone in fantasy football talked us all into drafting RBs early.

EFF it!

I guess I am now the one that has started the thread!

A bit worried about Richardson, traded my foster pick to get him, here's to hoping it works out next week since I won this week anyways barring a 50 point dez bryant performance!

 

[Bills_Fan11]

If you're more worried about the 2nd & 3rd RB's you drafted than TRich does that mean you're in trouble?

Really though I wouldn't be too worried. Miami's run defense is good and Weeden's int's didn't help them stay on the field.

 

[lukinrats]

Yea, I won also, but it still has to concern TRich owners that Weeden threw the ball something like 55 times. On top of that, he only threw about 2-3 of those Richardson's way. Giving the big guy 13 carries is not going to = Success.

Then, on the Martin side, he got a full plate of touches, and did nothing with them. I know that Carl Nicks is out, and all that, but he was last year also. This reminds me of the way Schiano started the year by running Martin straight into the pile. He was at his best when they got more creative with him. I am not real sure what to think of either guy @ this point

Anyone minding the chlorine levels in here?

Hard to believe that Brandon Weeden got 53 passes and Trent Richardson got 13 rushes.

Seems ridiculous, if you ask me.

I'm sure defenses aren't scared of any of the receivers, and in 2 weeks when Gordon comes back, things will open up. But you gotta get the guy carries.

How many people in here won their games?

 

[Beerguzzler]

Martin's game wasn't great, but it sure wasn't a dud.

TRich owner here.

Team put up 168 (ppr). Manning and AJ Green may have saved me. Up by 17, opponent still has V. Brown to go.

Yea, this is F****** insane. Cannot believe they threw it that much, when the game was still pretty close.

Trich and Martin owner on same squad. Will win tomorrow, behind 10 pts with Watt, Andre Johnson and Washington D to play. Not panicking yet. But definitely concerned as to shy they didn't give Trich the ball earlier and more often to let weeden settle in.

Don't think many people are panicking because most 1st round RBs had bad days.

 

[jdubs952]

Watching Rewind now...TRich looks great....can't believe he only got 13 carries!!

So this gets posted in every thread?

Yeah, there is some serious delusion going on with Martin. The guy had 65 total yds and a score. That's not great, but it's nowhere near a dud.

 

[Man of Zen]

Both guys looked fine. And both gameplans sucked, and allowed terrible teams to win. I'd imagine both will be adjusted to use their studs more heavily moving forward.

I see nothing to panic about on either front.

That's what Norv does in his offense toss deep and toss some more. I believe they should of passed more to trich

On the upside, you would have to think that after that disaster of a game the Browns had this week, they will adjust next week and give the ball to TRich more.

The game plane truly was astonishing. That many passes and you're top WR is out. Is it me, or did there seem to be an abnormally high amount of poor coaching this week? Not just Clev, but several other teams as well.

Norv's teams are always middle of the pack in rushing attempts. You've got to know an anomaly when you see one. That was one.
