Gak Attack Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Hmmm... Droughns 4 carries = 2 fumbles (1 lost). Bell 7 carries = TD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrappy1 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 And he just ripped off a 26 yard run on 2nd and 20....I think the Reuben Droughns era is likely over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just glad I have Bell sitting on my bench! Fresh legs did J. Jones some good. I look forward to seeing what Bell can do if he lives up to his billing.

'canes2004 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Fastest way to find the bench is to put the ball on the ground......twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrappy1 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Fastest way to find the bench is to put the ball on the ground......twice. 607220[/snapback] He actually seems to put the ball on the ground quite a bit...let me look it up...this is his 9th game he started, he has fumbled 5 times now, losing 3. Not as bad as I thought, but still not great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbuck1105 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Is there any indication that Droughns will get back into the game, or is he done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss Cheezhead Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I traded for Bell in OUTRAGED (keeper league) a few weeks ago, just hoping he would take the job in the offseason. Now he'll cost me a 7th-round pick next year, a 6th the year after that, etc. He could be a VERY nice keeper for a long time. Shanahan -- keep your ass in Denver!

Piles Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I wonder if Plummer were a RB and fumbled 4 times in a game if Shanahan would pull him?? The only reason I ask myself this is because Plummer can throw 4 picks (some weren't his fault I know) in a week and even throw them left handed yet Shanahan sticks with him... Shannon Sharpe was dead on about Plummer so someone tell me why Shanny is so hypocritcal when it comes to turnovers... Either bench ALL your guys who turn it over or stick with the guys that have helped you win games... Pick one you A$$!!! Ok, I'm gonna go stick my head in the toilet and breathe until it doesn't hurt anymore!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'canes2004 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Well, we know why Bell hasn't had a catch so far this year. Wait until to see the highlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHook Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I haven't seen it, but I'm sure it couldn't be any worse than Portis. He couldn't catch worth anything either. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vote Quimby2 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 F'n right! I actually had to start Bell in two leagues going against Droughns in both too. Better lucky than good any day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

major-tom Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Bell has a shoulder injury, I think....Droughns back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrappy1 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 (edited) Droughns got a whole series there....however 5 carries for 9 yards isn't going to do much to keep Bell at bay.

major-tom Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 It's too bad Bell can't stay healthy, his speed obviously would kill behind that O-line. I was thinking about keeping him for next year if he could start the last few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
