The train rolls on. Woohoo!
Fisher definitely likes to run guys into the ground.NajehHejan said:I really think we have fantasy gold on our hands. Only injury can stop him. You have a coach who loves to pound the rock. Underwhelming guys behind him. Franchise QB out for the year. WR are mediocre at best. Guy just averaged over 5.2 a carry against tough Seattle D. Assuming full health, I'm riding him at RB2 over Spiller, FJax, Mathews. Choo choo!

Pretty sure he was just agreeing that Stacy will get carries.Missed out on Stacy?Fisher definitely likes to run guys into the ground.NajehHejan said:I really think we have fantasy gold on our hands.

Why do people do this? People are so defensive in these threads. Anything that could possibly be perceived as negative is met with silly retorts like this. And this one wasn't even negative.Missed out on Stacy?Fisher definitely likes to run guys into the ground.NajehHejan said:I really think we have fantasy gold on our hands. Only injury can stop him.

As a Rams fan and Stacy owner, this makes my day.Looks like we aren't the only ones who love Stacy:

No kidding. I own Stacy, as have I owned CJ2k(when he was 2k), Chris Brown, and Eddie George. And Fisher DOES like to run his backs into the ground, which makes them great fantasy players. So, basically saying the exact opposite of what you read.Why do people do this? People are so defensive in these threads.

If he stays a 3-down back, then he would be one of the few in the league who hold that distinction.Looking forward to the near future as well as next year, where do you guys see him? DOes he have the ability and situation to be a RB1 next year?
Unless he finishes the year on quite a tear, he won't get top 10 draft status even if StL does not draft or sign a significant RB. He could theoretically finish in the top 10 if they get a real QB. If they draft a rookie (or stick with Bradford) then I'd expect Stacy to struggle to score TDs yet put up solid RB2 numbers based on sheer number of touches.If he stays a 3-down back, then he would be one of the few in the league who hold that distinction.Looking forward to the near future as well as next year, where do you guys see him?

Any 3-down back will get Top 10 consideration.
Risks:
1. They draft an RB in the Top 200 yet again; seems unlikely
2. Injury and that results in Pead/DRich claiming the top-spot again; also seems unlikely right now
3. If they decide they dont want to over-use and he gets spelled on 3rd down; a distinct possibility
4. They replace him at the GL; also seems unlikely
If he keeps improving I'm going to have a tough keeper decision next year. I can keep him or Spiller (one more year) and I have a feeling things arent going to change drastically for Spiller's chances this year which will make him a big ? going in to next.Looking forward to the near future as well as next year, where do you guys see him?

Garbage? Hes ranked 11 in my ppr league among rbs.Been trying to move stacey for ellington/gio... Gio more so. Stacy bothers me that he doesn't catch balls. He may become another alfred morris which is garbage imo. I seem to like backs that catch the ball in ppr. Tend to score more consistently and more overall.. the shonn greens,bjge,ridleys,blounts,beenie wells,mendy,alfredmorris just don't cut it for me.
Stacy has great hands and is an excellent receiver. He will catch more and more.Been trying to move stacey for ellington/gio... Gio more so. Stacy bothers me that he doesn't catch balls.

Post of the day.This is developing into a pretty good story. Glad I listened to you dopes.

(03:06 pm ET) Rams running back Zac Stacy is questionable Week 9 against the Titans.
Stacy was able to practice in full Thursday, but wound up being limited Friday. He's dealing with a foot injury.
Well crap. I'm stuck with Donald Brown if Zac can't go. Thanks for the info though.According to CBS:Sounds like he's ready to roll. I'm all in again.

Think it was ClaytonWho on ESPN?Just said GTD on ESPN
It's an early game - that helps!ugh. Please don't make me start Mike James vs Seattle....c'mon Zac!
That is what we are looking for. Hope he is effective. With byes, most of us have few alternatives.@AdamSchefter: Rams running back Zac Stacy, listed as questionable with an ankle injury, is expected to start today vs. the Titans.
Same here, between Stacy and VJax.Trying to decide between him, Vjax and Steve smiff. Thinking ill go with the kid...
Love Stacy but yeah....Lacy should run all over the Bears.Close to starting him over Lacy, is that nuts?
Yes. Lacy has been fantastic.Close to starting him over Lacy, is that nuts?
Yeah, definitely.Yes. Lacy has been fantastic.Close to starting him over Lacy, is that nuts?
That sounds good to me.Rams get their first rushing TD today. Stacy goes 23-111-1 with 3-31 receiving to boot.
Yep, I am gojng Lacy. But wouldn't be surprised to see him outscored.Yeah, definitely.Yes. Lacy has been fantastic.Close to starting him over Lacy, is that nuts?
Stacy is banged up and has a much higher-than-usual chance of being knocked out of the game. Stacy is very, very start-able, but he should not be started above most any other good RB that is not dinged up.
