Menstrualgravy Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 You guys are all off its going to be Royster. Shanny has spent the day reading this thread and is going to hose you all. Royster 23/135/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeachBum Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Stop the madness! I I feel like Clarice trying to match wits with Dr. Lector. Like so many I was eviscerated by Dr. Shanny with his use of Torain last week. I have (had) both Torain and Helu. Just packaged them in a trade for Nicks. Together they may be a whole pack of Matches but I'll let some other owner figure out which to Light. Great analogy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brentastic Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Just curious... Who are you starting Helu over? That's a pretty big leap of faith. Moreno - nothing special. I drafted Helu and just picked up Moreno off the ww. Yeah, my team is great at all positions EXCEPT RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCSkins Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I've pulled Torain for Battle and Battle for Torain about 5 times since Tuesday This +1. Going nuts. Just traded Arian Foster for Tom Brady so my choices to fill Foster's spot in my lineup are Torain, Battle, Garcon, and Addai. I absolutely abhor rolling with Torain, but The Huddle has him as an S2 and the rest of my options are S3 (Battle, Addai) or B (Garcon, though I find this ranking quite odd). Rolling the dice with Torain based on The Huddle's rankings. Hey, I pay them for a reason, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marauders11 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I'm starting Helu over Torain- gut feeling- nothing more- go Skelator! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunning Runt Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 All Torain so far but only 6 carries for 15yds and they're down 10-0 already. Time for a change maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I ended up starting Battle. For those of you keeping count Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montster Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Torain or Helu? I think the answer is pretty clear now: Neither. This offense is dismal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsosi Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) I'm surprised Torain is still out there given: A) he's not having any success they are down 20 and Helu is the better receiver Edited October 30, 2011 by nelsosi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montster Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Playing Helu was stupid I'm right there with you. In my case, last Sunday I had great RB depth: Ray Rice, Willis McGahee, Mike Tolbert and Mark Ingram. This Sunday, 3/4 of those guys sat with injuries. Picked Helu off waivers. Bleh.

Potman Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 It's official Torain is WORTHLESS. I'm done putting this guy in my lineup only to be hugely disappointed. Hell, Knowshon Moreno got more points than this dud. Played him 3 weeks in a row and got this from him: 2 0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilthorp Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I don't understand why they don't give Helu a chance to run with the ball. No clue whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecondString Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 No reason in the world they shouldn't give Helu some touches...yet they don't. Limited opportunities, almost 5 yards a carry. He's a playmaker...they need playmakers! He was in for the better part of the game as a blocking back. Almost no touches. Working in a pass to the blocking back every now & then would keep the defense honest, open things up. Shanahan's an idiot...bona fide.

bushwacked Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Seems to me like Washington is getting down big so early it's not really a matter of not giving Helu a chance as much as abandoning the running game in an attempt to overcome a deficit. Washington ran Torain 8 times today and no other RB got carries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washington ran Torain 8 times today and no other RB got carries. I don't think this is it. Helu is the better pass catcher so if they are abandoning the run you'd figure he'd be in - but Torain was still getting the snaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washington ran Torain 8 times today and no other RB got carries. They abandoned the run then down only 10 in the first half. Shanahan is NOT a good coach.
