Joebirds55 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Anyone know of fortes status for to tonight? Sounds like he's gonna play but has been questionable all week. Maybe play but limited? Also anyone starting him tonight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Since I'm not a Bears fan nor a Forte owner, I probably shouldn't answer this question, but what the heck, I'm in that kind of mood: Bears | Matt Forte a game-time decision Mon, 01 Oct 2012 07:36:45 -0700 Chicago Bears RB Matt Forte (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Week 4, head coach Lovie Smith said Monday, Oct. 1. "It's a game-time decision for Matt. He's made a lot of progress," Smith said. "We'll get over to the stadium see how he does then and decide." kffl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 If you're starting him you're taking a pretty hugh risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebirds55 Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm hoping its sore in warmups and he doesn't go....but he'll orob end up going off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt770 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I own him and didn't start him. I agonized over starting Bush or Andre Brown, went with Bush which was the right call, but the really right call would have been to bench Doug Martin and start Joique Bell in addition to Bush. I just gave you much more information than you asked for or probably need, but just deal with it. I think he'll play tonight, but see less than his normal workload. If he was playing a worse run defense, I may have taken a chance on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebirds55 Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 Any info is appreciated. My opponent started him this week....I'm hoping he has a minimal impact on the game. Or doesn't play at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Pimp Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I hope he sits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I hope he plays, but only sparingly. I'm trying to get the Forte' or Matthews owner to trade them for Chris Johnson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknrobn26 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I started him in 2 leagues. In one league (32 teams) there wasn't any options. In the other my best choice was Battle. Who'd a thunk? Go Bears! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 NFLN is now saying he is expected to play tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebirds55 Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 I guess it isn't terrible unless he goes off. The more he scores the less points Dallas d gets. Either way my 58pt lead w him still having Austin forte and dal d is gonna be close right? Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faceplant Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm starting him tonight but have Kahlil Bell as an option if they sit him. I was planning on Tashard Choice but dropped him for Bell when they brought back Jackson and Spiller. I'm not proud of any of these decisions.

matt770 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Will he get a normal workload? Yes. He is going to rush 27 times for 134 yards and a TD. He will have 4 receptions for 42 yards as well. But the Cowboys win 34-24. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BA Baracus Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I've been sitting on him and Bush. Now that Forte is active, I will start him over Bush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddahj Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I left him on the bench this week. Right next to Reggie Bush. If he comes out of this game healthy, he'll more than likely be back in my lineup next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
