The Weekly Patriot RB Update Thread (1 Viewer)

What are you hearing about the RB situation for Week 9, David? Pretty darn tempting matchup against the Colts.

FWIW, I read on the Pats MB I frequent that local radio guys (Smerlas and a few others who are decently connected to the team) heard that Morris will be playing in the Indy game. If he isn't ready to go, expect more of the same as last week.

As a Morris owner, I'm sure hoping this report is true.

Did anyone actually see Morris on the sidelines? Was he on crutches, knee in a brace, etc.?

is it foolish to think that when Jordan returns he has the most value in NE? I just think everyone is reading too much into DEN game and that Jordan is the better back.

Just to update, BB was asked in his daily presser about RBs and surprisingly didn't offer much. Just said we'll know more Wednesday.

If Morris and Jordan are out this week vs. Indy, I can guarantee you that BJE will get the majority of carries and put up the best numbers between him and Faulk. I don't think Faulk will do much against a small/quick defense whose strength is on the edges. I would expect Belichick to completely switch it up and have BJE gash it up the middle into the weakness of the Indy defense.

So am I.....going up against one of the top teams in my league. Would like to have a RB with a nice matchup in there.
