If Coleman is out, Hasty will get the lions share of carries for sure. McKinnon will catch some screens and do more in the passing game than running game.
With Tevin getting a "heavy workload" at practice this week, I don't see this happening. Just need his knee to hold up fine, I guess we will know more today after practice reports are revealed.
You're still at this, Nostradamus? Why don't you point to last week when you were completely incorrect.
I feel like if he's active, he's not going to be worked in...he's going to be worked hard.
I agree, but I'm a Tevin owner and need a big game to stay in playoff contention, so I am most likely looking at this with Coleman colored glasses.
We will see. I hope Pete Carroll and Ken Norton agree with you and aren't ready for the Hasty show.
The problem is Coleman kinda sucks and has never been a workhorse RB for Shanahan. Hes only had 20 carries once as a 49er and that was last year in the mud game vs Washington. Last year, with the O-line owning every defensive line it faced, he averaged less than 4 yards a carry. I get that he's ahead on the depth chart over McKinnon and Hasty, but I just don't think he will be effective enough to warrant the bulk of the carries.
Yeah, I said he would get volume.
Agreed. And I'm not happy about it. Probably rolling with Hasty in a couple spots regardless.Coleman has gone from "Outside/Might get a chance" to "Niners gave him a heavy workload in practice"
That sounds like they want to use Coleman as much as possible...what that amounts to in production or snaps/Touches I'm not sure but it seems to be trending towards Coleman and we are only at Friday.
Keep Hasty and McKinnon on stand by but if Coleman is clear to play...follow the money, they pay him like $4M+ which is a lot these days for a RB, they want to use Coleman if they can. Sure they want to use the RB that gives them the best chance to win, there's no argument anyone can make agains that. ALL THAT SAID, these decisions were made a while back when they financially committed and have kept Coleman on the roster and into this season despite what you and I might think from our couches.
All I'm saying is let's get out of the clouds and deal a little bit in reality for a minute.
(MOP, don't your Phins carry a $5M a yr do nothing RB too...)
Agreed. Coleman hasn't played since week 2, so to imagine he gets more than 8-10 touches is unrealistic. McKinnon shot his loads earlier in the year, so I'm still bullish on Hasty this week. Next game is a totally different story.
I think this offense and who plays is a week by week situation. Normally I wouldn't want any part of it but since its so dang productive is good to have a piece. I have to roll with hasty this week and hopefully he produces so much its an easy call for the coaches next week.
Have everybody seemingly on bye in two leagues and I'd fired up Hasty, too. Yes, wrench in the works for sure. I might actually sort of have to start Preston Williams or Jakobi Meyers, both of which are better off left sitting on a bench (Meyers especially since I just acquired the guy off of his set-the-world-afire four catch game). Travis Homer has snuck into play as a desperation RB. Ooh baby.
I don't like to ##### about players but I just don't get it with this guy. Every other SF RB seems to produce crazy numbers yet this bum keeps getting trotted out there by Shanny looking very average compared to practice squad guys that come off a couch and produce...... I have seen this situation 3 times and only one has changed.
Has Coleman ever looked as good as Hasty running the ball....... No Coleman sucks.....

I agree with you that Coleman hasn't looked great. Every other back on this team has looked better than him at some point, but that doesn't seem to matter than much. Shanahan keeps going back to him when he's healthy.
I own Hasty but in no way would start him this week. I HAVE to start him next week with people on byes. So I’m hoping it becomes more clear.
I watched about half of that and I'm sorry but nothing was very impressive. Bottom line is Shanny is an offensive genius and he has made average RB's look like all pros. Compare apples to apples, Coleman is garbage compared to anything else SF has trotted out there as an NFL RB.
Speed, great zone running, no hesitation behind the line of scrimmage, very fast to the hole... if nothing looked impressive, then you and I don't exist on the same planet.
Maybe I'm a little jaded but everything he seemed to get was laid out in front of him and nothing was really earned in my opinion.
I will always admit when I'm wrong, case in point Jamaal Williams looked like garbage for 2 years, somehow he has looked impressive the last 2 years. IMO there is a problem when every other RB produces like a superstar in the Shanny system but Coleman looks very average at best.
Yeah, I think I understand where you're coming from. I don't think he's the type of running back that could produde with a bad offensive line.

Are you a Dynasty owner that has stripped the walls bare. like the Phins last year?
He is still on my benchrockaction said:
No, my dynasties are all competing pretty strong right now. I have a couple redrafts where I have Gibson, Robinson on bye and A Jones out, along with Mostert and CMC. In some combination that forces me to start Hasty. Or whatever other nonsense I can find.
I think you need to wait and see but this tired legs thing may just be, he is pretty much washed. He did not really get that much use for those few weeks. Really sad, Jet was my #1 sleeper going into the season knowing Mostert would be missing time but it has not worked out.
I have Mostert on IR. Think I should pickup TC? He’s been such a trash bag for the past year, except for the divisional round last year. But even 5th stringers are pinball machines in that offense.
Have Mostert as well and had Coleman on the roster. Just had to drop him to get a damn kicker. I kept L. Perine instead of Coleman. In your case, I'd drop Hines for Coleman. Hoping I can get Coleman back (or not if its the Hasty show today).
I'm the wrong one to ask as I have trashed Coleman to a great extent. I would rather lose without Coleman than win with him
. I'm hoping Hasty has earned the chance to be the guy.
JH has looked great. Not that he's doing anything special, he's had huge holes and they have been scheming him great opportunities, but he looks dynamic as hell with fresh legs. I can't say the same about Coleman since his early Falcons days.I'm the wrong one to ask as I have trashed Coleman to a great extent. I would rather lose without Coleman than win with him
I've been asking myself all year why I am rostering Hines. JT still gets a lot of work on third down and in negative game scripts when they are behind (the kind of games you would expect Nyheim to get a ton of garbage points.) If the starter goes down, Wilkins will get a lot of the work on the first two downs. Def limited value at this point, probably the best bet if I do make the move.
