GoldenEagle81 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I understand Seattle has a good defense and can stop the run, but you can't stop Peyton AND the run....what the hell is going on? I'm not watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripleshot Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 What's going on? I drafted him in two leagues. The Curse continues. Same for Demaryius Thomas and Keenan Allen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripleshot Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Â Â WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING? Â Â What could I do? He was projected highly AND he was a Badger. There's no way I could not draft him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â no...you did well and should be commended...not condemned.... Â but at least put up a disclaimer that you have these guys on your teams and then I can avoid... Â I have Ball on 4 teams....and have paid dearly for it....even though I have a decent record... Â but I should have picked up 2 wins today in 32 Homarrrrrrs.......he did not help me....I think I lost both of my games with the same team by less than 5 pts...combined...thanks for the fumble Mr. Ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BA Baracus Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 All running backs suck when they play @SEA. Â He will get his because they are sticking with him. I got worried when he fumbled on the first play, but they went right back to him. He did good work as a blocker today, both downfield and in pass pro. I am finally on board with him as an RB1 going forward. He is clearly Manning's guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsosi Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I didn't see him on the field during the Broncos last series. That would concern me if I was heavily invested in him (I'm not) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwolf68 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Benched him today...for Lamar Miller....his schedule isn't getting much easier, but the guy isn't going to finish with 500 yards rushing either. He's a good back with a dynamic offense, things will sort itself out. I am just navigating this part of his schedule, but fully expect him to start rolling at some point.

Rileyrott Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Hey, it`s tough all around this year...look at McCoy today, and Lacy over 3 games. Ball will come around, it`s just a matter of time. After all, it's only been 3 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphin_Akie Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Started him over Ellington so didn't matter either way but I'd pretty much written this week off for him. To be fair wasn't great the week before either but waiting for the games against the Raiders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 there was no way I was sitting Ball. Fred Jackson went off on my bench but I'm not starting him over Ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 If you don't have Ball on your team you should try to acquire him about 2 weeks after the bye... our sooner if you want. .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShuckCreations Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 This year vs last year are night and day. Pay attention.

TonyBromo Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I don't think Knowshon is all that great of a player but he put up numbers last year simply because of the role of the lead RB in this offense. Ball is at least as capable as Moreno of doing that job. He will be fine the rest of the way. Buy low 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I avoided him in the draft because he is not a good back. Â Â The difference is that last year he was playing second fiddle to Knowshon, and now Knowshon is gone. That gives Ball the lead RB role in a solid Denver offense, a huge opportunity to put up good stats. That's why his ADP was so high, even though he didn't really do anything last year. The Broncos seem to disagree with your assessment of him not being a good back, because otherwise they wouldn't have let Knowshon go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougsul Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Sitting Ball to me was kind of easy, he has not been very good and he was playing at Seattle. I did start D Thomas though and he has been terrible this year. Sanders appear to be clearly their number one receiver at this point.

Shorttynaz Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Stay the course. Rough start for sure. He needs to produce after this bye  Needing to and doing so are two different things. Denver has a pretty tough schedule this season, and their O-line isn't necessarily the bees knees at run blocking..
