tomconway Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Will Bradshaw finally be the # 1 back in Ind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) Not likely ... I suspect Indy will continue load sharing to protect the health of both backs ... it is the new NFL model these days Edited September 17, 2014 by Grits and Shins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doobwaa Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 plus I doubt they would officially name Bradshaw the starter ... basically saying they made a horrendous trade for a bust rb that was beat out by re-tread veteran made of glass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 If I had a do-over in a draft, I'd take Bradshaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA Baracus Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I thought TRich was having a nice game up until the fumble. He was hitting the holes and he looked explosive. Bradshaw looked real good too, but there is no question that he was running into softer defensive fronts on average. I expect this to continue as a straight up timeshare until one guy gets hurt.

sausagekingchi Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Bradshaw is easily the superior player. He has a proven track record of performance. His big issue has always been his health, and that makes it difficult to depend on him as a fantasy starter. I think they continue to use Richardson to prevent Bradshaw from being overworked. Despite Richardson being named the starter to begin the season Bradshaw has seen 88 snaps to Richardson's 59 snaps. The team may not openly admit it, but Bradshaw is their #1RB at this point. No reason to think it will change unless Bradshaw gets injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
