xMRogers Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I haven't seen a play of theirs in weeks - picked up Seneca Wallace and wondering if last weeks fantasy points was 'legit' or a bit fluky? (can't believe i may need to start him in the darn semi-finals) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylive5 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 It is an unfortunate thing that I am forced to watch each and every Seahawk game. If you are stuck for a QB I guess you could do worse than Wallace. I will be fair and say that he does seem to be getting better at it.

Riffraff Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 He has a good match-up, but he's only a last second emergency QB for your squad. Also of note: Seahawks placed LT Walter Jones (knee surgery) on injured reserve, ending his season. He had the knee reconstructed on Thursday.

heehawks Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) I've watched every game this year, two in person. Wallace looked real good last week, and seemed to have made an improvement. That being said, I'm pretty sure it was a product of a few things; playing a home game, and playing against a sub-par defense, and having a healthy Branch back. There were a few games earlier in the schedule that he just didn't seem right. His body language was not good and I think his calf was still bothering him, leading to average qb play. Plus he was throwing to practice squad wr's. Last week his body language was excellent from the first snap, and from what I've read his calf is feeling much better, allowing him to move around more, and be the mobile qb he wants to be. Okay, after all that, I think he has a real good game this week against the porous StL Defense. 250 and 2 tds wouldn't be out of the question, and he might even add in 30+ rushing for you. You could definitely do worse starting some other schlocky qb. Just saw the post above about Walter Jones. This is true, and will definitely have an impact. But last week they had a make-shift O-line and he played very well. So, I wouldn't worry about it too much. I think its going to be a shootout.

Seahawks21 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Tough call. My hunch is that last weekend was rather flukey. The team played with more effort and focus than they have played with in any game this season. I don't see them getting up for St. Louis in the same fashion, which would lead me to believe we'll see another sloppy, rather uninspiring game. I would honestly think Tarvaris Jackson is probably a better play this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godtomsatan Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Wallace is playing the Rams, and he did perform pretty well for the most part last week. Fantasy wise, he may be an adequate option since his successful play is predicated on his ability to maneuver around. He just doesn't look comfortable with a standard drop back passing game, so not having 4/5ths of his offensive line, limited RB options, and professional but smallish WR may suit him well, especially his running ability against a cruddy defense. His production notably drops as a game wears on, but you probably don't care about finer points like that and just want to know if he's going to do well vs. the Rams. I'd call him a borderline start capable of being one of the top 12 this weekend, but no way would I guarantee it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
