Big Score 1 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 The Pueblo Chieftain By FRANK SCHWAB KNIGHT RIDDER "The Denver Broncos might see a slight change in their running game for the rest of the season. HC Mike Shanahan said he plans to give rookie RB Tatum Bell more carries for the rest of the season, at least enough so Reuben Droughns doesn’t have to play almost the entire game. Shanahan said Bell will probably get a few carries per game with Droughns carrying the bulk of the load." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Irish Doggy Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I hope he completely takes over. I burned the #2 pick in my dynasty rookie draft on him and picked him up off waivers 2 weeks ago in a redraft league. He has to get his shot though because Shanascam doesn't draft RBs that high and sit them forever. I think he's got better upside compared to Droughns.

PackerFanX Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I think Bell will get around 7 carries today. In any event I am making a tough decision and sitting Droughns and starting N. Goings vs STL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gak Attack Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 (edited) I would be surprised if it became a RBBC in Denver. Historically, Shanahan likes to give one RB the bulk of the load each game. If Droughns continues to produce, and doesn't get significantly outproduced by Bell, I think he's the starter. And, vice versa. Now, if Bell is the stud he was built-up to be, that would be sweet to see him tote the pigskin the rest of the way.
