They reached the red zone at the end of the game when Chris Moore scored a TD on Trey Waynes.
So Moore had 3 opportunities, Watson one and Boyle one.
Woodhead.
Not going to tell you what I decided just so you have a little hope for tomorrow.Weebs210 said:
Holding, but that's more a result of a lack of options on the WW than it is a belief that he's going to become a viable starter.Efritch4 said:
How many drives do you think you will get out of him? I'm guessing around 3 before he is out for the year.
Totally agree, but it is a tough bye week. Personally, I think that a player like Smallwood, who may be available in leagues, is more attractive this week and holds ROS value. Plus, Miami is pretty solid against the run and Baltimore’s receivers are not 100% healthy.
As I mentioned upthread, I think part of it is that it just doesn't feel good to roll him out there. You're right that prior to last week he was pretty consistently producing 5-7 points per week, which isn't terrible. And you have to assume he falls into the end zone eventually. But he's the NFL equivalent of an "innings eater", the pitcher who throws five innings per start and gives up three or four runs, and who you hope at least keeps you in the game until the bullpen can take over.
Agree, but worry that given the way Harbaugh is approaching this, even if Collins lets loose with a few TDs, it won't alter his approach of miring this backfield in mediocrity by spreading out the touches still.
Dion Lewis was on waivers, 12 team 0.5 ppr, dropped collins for him this week. Will still follow this thread closely as the kid has looked good. Want him to succeed, either in the NFL or as a a riverdancer.
Yeah I thought about buying on Lewis last week. Anarchy talked me out of it.
I think the difference is we've seen Lewis be something much more than what he currently is. Collins doesn't have that track record.
And the fact that Dion is on one of the best if not best offenses in the league, that has one of the worst Ds in the league.
We've also seen Lewis be much less than he currently is. We've also seen the NE backfield be as unpredictable a situation as there is. We've also seen Lewis NEVER able to stay healthy for an extended period. His current 7 game healthy streak might be the longest of his career.
Well, tonight is the biggest teller of what we can expect going forward. He had a horrible match up last week, and this one is a little more favorable with game flow. It'll be interesting to see how he does. If he flops I think it's safe to say he is who he has been, and will likely be nothing more this season due to usage and the limits of his team. If he takes a step in the right direction and can shoulder more of the load and make up for the poor offense, maybe he has some hope going forward. He needs a TD, this has been stated many times. If he gets 60 yards again and no score (goal lines vultured), I'm not sure I can buy. I'll still hold until someone better comes along, as my WW is pretty well bare right now, but expectations will be tempered.
