msaint Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 ROTOWORLD: Ahman Green (knee) has been downgraded to out for Week 11. Ron Dayne will start, but has a difficult matchup against the Saints and will likely lose touches to Joe Echemandu. Still, either backup would be a decent flex. Dayne could dominate the workload if it's a close game, but Echemandu might see more action if it's a shootout because Dayne is poor in the passing game.

tomfin2000 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) This is why I dropped Green two weeks ago. The Texans just need to put him on IR and be done with it. Edited November 16, 2007 by tomfin2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiley Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Time for my $2 bid for Dayne last week to pay some dividends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats might not be too far off, actually....... Texans running back Ahman Green out of Saints game By MEGAN MANFULL Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle Texans running back Ahman Green will not suit up against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. Coach Gary Kubiak said Ron Dayne will get the start because of continued swelling in Green's knee. Kubiak would not say for sure if Green will play again this season. "He will not play Sunday," Kubiak said. "He will be down. He has not responded over the last couple of weeks and the rest we've given him. He came out and did a little (Thursday), as I told you all. His knee swelled this morning. So he will be down. And we will work from there." Green, who received $6.5 million in guaranteed money, refused to speak to the media after practice. He injured his knee in the first game of the season and hasn't played in a complete game yet. In six appearances, he has 70 carries for 260 yards and two touchdowns. His return is uncertain. "I really don't know yet," Kubiak said. "I'm taking it a day at a time. I know he will not play this weekend and we'll go from there."
