BeeR Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Anyone want to try and figure out this cluster? Granted the long run skewed the stats tonight, but even without that, Henry got more carries and yds tonight. I didn't see the game - how'd they look? Anyone w/insights?

Big John Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Murray tweaked a hammy so it skews the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeonardPart6 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Murray isn't showing up as questionable though so it makes it even harder to determine who to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vato22 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) I'm a Murray owner and let me tell you this... The week against Seattle where he was questionable, he had a killer game. Yes I'm including that monster run, because well you have to, it's points on the board fellas. But most importantly to me, it costed me big time. I didn't start him that game, and I ended up losing by 10 because of it. I look at it this way so far, until further notice Murray is the starter. In close games or when they're playing catch up expect Murray to see more snaps... In games they have the lead expect Henry to see more snaps. At least that's my view of how it's been shaking out.

1fastdoc Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Where they have the lead. Lol. If it's PPR, stick with Murray. If not, use non-Titans RB. Henry has great potential but he competes with Murray and Walker. He was picked up with the long play in mind. He'll be Murray in 2-3 more years.

Then they're doing it wrong...RBs have the shortest length of career now a days and in 2-3 more years odds are he'll be spent. It is the easiest position to start playing out of college, there is no reason for the team to pamper him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilthorp Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Henry was on the wire but after losing David Johnson, I have been desperate. Better than Smallwood or Charles. I won't be starting him this week but I should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddahj Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I have both and it seems like whichever one I start the other guy does better. One week I started both of them and they both sucked. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it's obvious Running Backs are most at risk for Injuries given the nature of their position, less playing time = less chance of injury which = longer career. I mean I know as you get older you're less spry but Athletically I don't think the drop off is as severe as we see represented in Football due to age as it is wear and tear. Hell even a torn Hamstring put a full stop to Usain Bolt and a lot of these football players are playing after full MCL and ACL tears. Nuts. Granted sprinting is a game of miliseconds where a Hamstring has more effect it still kinda coincides with what I'm saying.

loaf Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Murray is active this week and the Browns have a sneaky good run defense. I'm still rolling with Henry as I think the Titans will get a lead and not risk Murray 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total yards - 1864 rank 15 Rush yards - 506 rank 9 Pass yards - 1358 rank 21 They are tied for first in yards/rush at 3.0, that is surprising, and very good. Rank 11th in yards per play and 21st net yards/attempt. Guess the defense has improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTJet Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Murray has been a headache for me so far too this season, like @Vato22 I didn't start him v 'Hawks and cost me the game. Have him in at FLEX at the moment in standard scoring,only have Gillislee, Kupp, Kearse or Mike Williams in reserve. Stick with Murray??....

XFlash Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 yup, not taking a chance. I'm rolling with Coleman. It was going to be DMartin, but not against BUF and Winston playing hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
