Ursa Majoris Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I've picked up and will start Ivory in 3 leagues over Betts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcat Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) conflicting reports out there. I'm placing my "Betts" on Ivory. Never know what Peyton will do. The real winner are Brees owners. Its going to be an all-out air show today. Might be smart to start Shockey too. He will no doubt be targeted more than usual.

theeohiostate Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Ivory. Betts will be the 3rd down back. some say that Betts never recovered from his injury. Betts is expected to start, where did you read Ivory is getting 1st and 2nd downs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerz Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Betts is expected to start, where did you read Ivory is getting 1st and 2nd downs? NFLN said Ivory will start but I wouldn't read to much into that....it will most likely be rotational at best...and as full disclosure I am starting Ivory in one of my leagues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcat Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Betts is expected to start, where did you read Ivory is getting 1st and 2nd downs? yeah... if anything it will be the other way around, with Betts getting 1st down and Ivory getting 3rd and goal line carries for sure. Still think Peyton rolls with Ivory more as the game progresses. Betts is over the hill and just plain sucks. Frankly, this will be all Drew Brees all game long today.

SLAYER Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 But then again If the Saints are up by 17 or so they will start running with Brees wearing a knee brace and all why put him in harms way. They will then turn it over to Williams andthe D to harras the rookie. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will then turn it over to Williams andthe D to harras the rookie. JMO Because of the knee injury, I expect a big running game. Remember, Carolina sucks but they have some fast corners so expect allot of corner blitzes from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brockh01 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Wow, Thinking about dropping Kenneth Darby and starting Ivory in my flex spot. Half my team is on bye weeks (not really, but it feels that way). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerz Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) Wha? I didn't stutter Maybe I should also point out that we start 3 WRs (96 WRs started weekly) and my 3 are BMarshall, Nicks & Colstson oh and it is an IDP league too....RB values are very depressed in that league.

PPIchamp Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Chris Liss on Yahoo FFL is reporting Betts is the starter. I think if (when) the Saints get up big, they'll run alot later in the game to kill the clock and give the banged up Brees an easier time.

SLAYER Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 With Payton it doesn"t matter who starts, that's just the back in for the first play. Play 2 could be Ivory who knows with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattsass Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I already placed my bets picking up Ivory on most of my teams over the last two weeks. I will just have to hope that I am right. There could be lots of opportunity for both if the Saints can shut down the Panthers running game, maybe get some turnovers, and keep the ball. Its just hard for me to get excited about Betts at 31, especially considering how good Ivory looked in preseason. Saints should find themselves around the goal line more today than they have been so I'm cautiosly optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked him up in one league but have decided to go with Maroney in the Flex instead of him. But picking Ivory up has served its purpose. My opponent has P. Thomas, Steven Jackson and Adrian Peterson and someone else already picked up Betts. LOL. He is starting Chester Taylor and Hart. Ca-ching!
