Kansas State 2000 Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Holmes ran for 35-yards and needed a blow ... Johnson took the next carry to the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHook Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 My point is that Johnson WILL see more playing time than before. The Chiefs would be crazy not to use him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 So what's the split - Priest 1200-14 + receiving while LJ gets, oh, 500-8? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 (edited) Play 'em both. Simms ays he runs like he's mad. Everytime he touches the ball he runs like he's making up for not playng.

Mr. Pennypacker Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 And to think they almost traded him last year to TB for McCardell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramhock Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Stepped up and took him in round 5, in two leagues. I will start playing him next week. I am not a Priest owner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverines Fan Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I own both Priest and LJ on two of my teams. I started Priest today. This could get frustrating. I'm wondering if they're saving Priest for later in the season or they'll keep doing this. I also may start both of them some weeks, especially if my other backs have a bye. My #2 RB on both teams that I have Priest is SJax. I guess I'm set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slusy Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Man, I wish I'd started LJ instead of DDavis tday. :doah: I'll have to consider LJ when I'm playing matchups going forward; the Jets defense isn't normally anything to sneeze at, so LJ could be huge if he and Priest split evenly...

alexgaddis Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I played against Priest today... Go LJ, Go LJ, it's your birthday, its your birthday.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantsfan Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 You know what the bottom line is? LJ will play some also. Now Priest will do well also and have good #'s but this is what all the guys who said, like me, I would never take Holmes as a top 5 pick were talking about.

sarge5121976 Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 It's 1 game dont over-react. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexgaddis Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 (edited) yep, its a great rushing attack and they will use them both ALL YEAR... and its not an overreaction, LJ is younger and playing well, expect to see them both this year..

giantsfan Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 It's 1 game dont over-react. 982857[/snapback] You are 100% right it was just one game. But if anyone thinks, especially after watching today's game, that LJ won't get a very decent amount of carries you are kidding yourself.

Chadman Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 The coach loves Holmes. The fans love Holmes. The offensive line loves Holmes. The game was NEVER seriously in doubt, why would they use Holmes any more than they did? Not a bad game from a running back, I don't think. 85 and a TD. More than I can say for a lot of #1 backs today. In a closer game, Holmes will get a lot more action than today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westvirginia Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 He had 9 carries 982884[/snapback] Right, and did twice what Priest did with his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
