JSA2422 1,604 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 anyone actually starting this dude? seems like a good game to gauge his potential future usage but I'd think one would need to be v desperate to roll this guy out vs Baltimore Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pooskay 807 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 He'd be an easy start if the opponent was trash (ex. dolphins), but on the fence vs. BAL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magoo 1,590 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I’m starting him. “If not now, then when?” 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fisher being out is more of the deterrent ... let's see the Ravens run D against a 'Homie led offense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigbluecrew56 2,648 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I hope this kid gets shot out of a cannon on his first carry and houses one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigbluecrew56 2,648 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) All we have his Slug Shady in the way and no way he's getting cow carries this Sunday. Also doubtful Darrel gets change of pace carries in this one. Darwin will be Reid's secret weapon. Edited September 20, 2019 by bigbluecrew56 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Why do you think this is the year he won't be able to. He doesn't look slow to me either Edited September 20, 2019 by Itachi_is_the_goat 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Savatage79 2,427 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Just wish it wasn't Baltimore, but gotta start him on that heavenly offense Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ponchsox 1,800 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Starting him, Williams is my RB2 and have no other options. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve226 60 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Spencer Ware was just cut by the Colts. Watch him end up on the Chiefs again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Why do you think this is the year he won't be able to. He doesn't look slow to me either I have McCoy down for 15 touches. Same amount D Will was getting. He's 31 years old and i dont think Reid signed him on to do more then that. Reid wants to keep him healthy as best as he can. Shady was already favoring his ankle in limited duty last week.

dudewithabadcat 1,078 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 With every game a necessary W in the AFC cause of the Patriots ability to go 18-0. I just do not see Darwin getting the snaps or the looks based off of Andy’s latest comments about him needing to work on his blocking etc and putting him out there against this Ravens D. I doubt it. I just see this being a huge trap for all you sold on him to have a role this weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just see this being a huge trap for all you sold on him to have a role this weekend. I would hardly say it's a huge trap if he's not used. I think expectations are pretty reasonable here. Reid will do what it takes to win, regardless of whoever is in there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deke 1,916 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I’m predicting McCoy reaggravates on his first carry. Fire up Thompson. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
