CaptainHook 778 Posted October 8, 2006 Crap. This is the bad part about going to the game. you can't make last minute changes. I'm benching him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gdawg 0 Posted October 8, 2006 Yeah, I benched him too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PantherDave 0 Posted October 8, 2006 I've got him on two squads and I've choosen to sit'em this week, if he does play, it's just one hit the ribs and he'll most likely to the pine anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chavez 32 Posted October 8, 2006 I've got him on two squads and I've choosen to sit'em this week, if he does play, it's just one hit the ribs and he'll most likely to the pine anyway. Right on - Driver is one tough motor scooter and will surely try to get it out, but he's one halfway decent hit away from going to the bench, and even absent a good hit, how effective will he really be?

Too iffy for him to play & as PD says, one good hit to his tender rib area & it's pine city for Mr. Driver. Benched him & flexed in...gulp...Eric Johnson, TE 49er's.

nhoops 2 Posted October 8, 2006 That's my fear as well......look elsewhere if you have better options. I'm going with Ward in 1 league and Cotchery in another. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fairwarning 0 Posted October 8, 2006 My only other choice is Lee Evans, due to Bye week. I'm going with DRIVER ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Benched him & flexed in...gulp...Eric Johnson, TE 49er's. Also, GB is on a bye next week (6), so they may use him less today and get him healthy for Week 7.

Front Row 9 Posted October 8, 2006 I'm gonna hope he gets a few touches before he sits, my only option is R. Smith against the Ravens D. I don't like that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bree22 6 Posted October 8, 2006 Driver is tough and coninued to play last week after the injury. My biggest concern is not him playing and leaving but being more of a decoy to keep defenses honest for Jennings. (which is being started against this week ). What do you homers think about that?

ronniemo 0 Posted October 8, 2006 I'm struggling with this. i agree with everyones thoughts on benching Driver but my only other option is Rod Smth against Balt. What to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RussMan 0 Posted October 8, 2006 The deal with Driver is that he seems to be the go to guy in the redzone.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LosGatosEnFuegos 40 Posted October 8, 2006 The deal with Driver is that he seems to be the go to guy in the redzone.... That's true. Even if he is mostly used as a decoy, he still has the potential to end with a TD. Ugh, my only other option is Horn v. TB, so I'm clutching at every straw possible to start Driver.

notamomo 2 Posted October 8, 2006 How do you think this affects Jennings? Need to decide btwn Driver and Jennings. Last week, Furrey lit up the Rams, but that seemed to happen after Williams already started to dominate. I think Driver could be decent, but I have no idea what Jennings will do. Urgh.

ronniemo 0 Posted October 8, 2006 Horn.... geez I think I would have to go with Driver... I actually prefer Horn if Driver isn't 100%. Breesd looks for him. I am still stuggling with my Driver for Rod Smith decision. Any thoughts??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
