The game that McGahee goes off (1 Viewer)

I've stuck with him this year except for the game where they said it was heavilly doubtful he would play (he score 20 that night). Every other week he has been plugged into my lineup and I have watched as Rice and McClain (both of whom are on my bench) have put up good seasons. Tonight however I finally made the move and put McClain in b/c of McGahees "undisclosed" illness.

Anyone want to bet that now I have finally made the switch to McClain, McGahee sees 20 carries?

 
Now I'm pissed. Most other games this year if McGahee has a couple bad runs to start the game they pull him for a RB who is performing better. Tonight they seem to be sticking with him even though he has dropped 1 pass and 1 pitch, plus done really nothing on the ground. At least I can be happy knowing he won't be with the team next year.

I am not getting the same impression you are from watching the games. They don't pull McGahee for a running back who is doing better. Assuming all of them are active, they gameplan and play matchup. A lot like the Giants use Jacobs/Ward/Bradshaw. Depending on how they plan to attack the defense, any of the RB's could get carries. Obviously, Mcclain is going to get most of the GL chance. A lot of McGahee's lack of production this year has been due to in nearly every game he gets banged up and comes out of the game, missing significant time. Probably due to the poor conditioning we heard about in off-season.
