It's been a guessing game and I've played him when he's gone off a few times and I have also experienced the duds. Do me a favor when you start him please post it so I know to play him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Yes, and Matt Ryan, and Chris Johnson and Janikowski. My opponent had those 4 and played them all. Even my good coaching move of pulling Ogbonnaya and replacing him with Deangelo Williams wasn't enough to save my team from those 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboysDiehard Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Had no choice but to start him in the one league where I lost Fred Jackson but still have a chance of taking the title. No regets. A++ will start again...and again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No regets. A++ will start again...and again... Good luck with that.. His next 4 games will net you about 12pts combined. (Unless I bench him, in which case, feel free to pencil in your championship) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I've been more hit than miss with him. Although I missed the Giant game. Thankfully I've had other options and played the matchup game when reports indicated he was more healthy than not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully I've had other options and played the matchup game when reports indicated he was more healthy than not. But every time indications point towards him having a bad game, he explodes. I would be shocked if anyone started him in that Giants game coming off an injury. Playing the Ravens was almost impossible to predict. And then yesterday, literally the only reason anyone started him was not having a better option. He had played terribly in 4 straight games leading up to yesterday.

MrTed46 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 With FJAX hurt I had to roll with him...wow what a performance. I have to roll with him the rest of the way which makes me sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I didn't just look at the last 4 games. His knee was clearly bothering him for a month but then last week he finally practiced in full on Friday and I read some reports that he had a burst again... The Rams lost a starting DT and aren't good vs the run anyway. I thought he was a good bet this weekend. I had no idea he would be that good of course, but 100/ 1 seemed like a strong possibility.

nelsosi Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Beanie laid an egg against the exact same Rams D less than a month ago (though the Cardinals gameplan was inexplicable that day). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalhead316 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Cant stand him at all, yesterday was just icing on the cake. I never seen a guy as backwards as fn beanie wells. First the guy breaks a toenail and is gone for a season it seems, then when he seems actually hurt he goes out and puts up 200+ yards, and how many times in the game was he shaken up....he basically ruined my weekend. What gets me mad is ive been against every news worthy explosion, every single one. I was against Murrary, I was against Petersons big 3 TD week, i was against Welkers huge 55 point weekend early on, i was against one of Turners biggest weeks, against Foster and his insane game a few weeks back, there are more i just cant remember them...but now against his record career breaking 228 yards....whatever. The guy id never draft in a million years, i dont care if he runs 200 yards every game...i just cant stand him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTSuper7 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Well, I didn't just look at the last 4 games.

The Rams lost a starting DT and aren't good vs the run anyway. I thought he was a good bet this weekend. I had no idea he would be that good of course, but 100/ 1 seemed like a strong possibility. +1 - I started him over a couple RBBC guys with good matchups (JStew and Ben Tate). Reports were that he looked back to his normal burst after last week. And when you consider the Rams' woes of late, it made sense that he had a fair shot at a quality outing.

JUMbotron Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 "Ladies and gentlemen, meet the new Fred Taylor. The transformation is complete.

STL Fan Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 The real takeaway is that if you have a running back going against the Rams, you freakin' start him. We completely revived Beanie with a team-record rushing day after introducing DeMarco Murray to the world with a team-record rushing day.Betty White from that snickers commercial could run on the Rams.

gbpackersfan Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Just an FYI, Im benching Beanie Wells this weekend. Feel free to use him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Anybody have thoughts on Ryan Williams? Is he going to be the starter and carry the bulk of the load in 2012? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I will likely bench Beanie as well this week. Although he is my next guy in if anyone else falters. At home with Kolb back isn't a terrible play IMO even vs. Dalas' good rush D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overworkedirish Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Beanie Wells is the RB version of VJax this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTSuper7 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) For those benching Beanie this week, who are you starting ahead of him? I've moved him in and out of my lineup about 5 or 6 times this week already. I'm just curious what sort of RBs you value higher than Beanie this week.

And at flex, Im starting DeSean over him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
