What in the hell happened here tonight?

He's at 31 carries for 168 yards and 4 TDs.

That's 41 points in my Fantasy league.

Is this a fluke?

I don't know what happened to Vereen.

I am #1 on the Waiver Order........I almost have to pick this guy up.

Got 2 spots on my roster right now that are holding dead weight anyways.

Yeah, his ass is sitting on two of my benches. Atleast Ben Tate is right next to him in one.

When it comes to the Patriots rbs, good luck trying to figure out which one will get carries from week to week. Those types of players IMO are best left for someone else to deal with.(assuming you don't need a rb real bad)

Dropped him on his bye last week. I feel like shit for that, but... problem is, he might not total tonight's production, ROS.

Well, the real question is.........why in the hell did he go 30+ carries tonight?

Did the staff decide they're going to roll with him at #1 suddenly?

Or did it just work out that way tonight for some extremely odd reason?

I'm picking him up regardless, because I don't see why I wouldn't when I'm sitting at the top of the waiver order.

If he's the #1 back moving forward, he holds way too much value in an Offense like that.

Vereen is fine, doing what he usually does; he's not a "workhorse" RB and only looked like he might be, briefly, because the Pats were really strapped. Tonight Belichick is delighted that everyone is freaking out on The Gray - now he can screw over opposing defenses... and fantasy owners along the way.

Gray started last week and put up only 3 FF pts, even though the Pats were up 13+ from the middle of the second quarter on. Tough schedule ROS.

The one thing i have learned about the patriots is that schedules dont mean anything... The patriots go hot hand, whether it is the running game or the passing game... and whether it is vereen or any other RB...

But with that said i am not surprised that today was a jonas Gray day(of course nobody could have predicted this day), the Colts have been very good vs the pass, and not so good vs the run... Vereen is an outside runner, and good in the passing game... The patriots wanted to run, so they used Gray...

I'm all in on the Gray-train on Waivers... Just look at what Blount did last year once cold weather hit... Worth the grab if you can get him.

Same thing happened last year with Blount... He went off one week and then did nothing until December and then he went off for 3 straight weeks.

I think he is at least worth the stash.

Right now it appears that the Patriots are using Vereen as more of a "receiving" RB and or a blocking back. With Gray's smashmouth ability I am looking for him to be used more. Granted I don't see anymore 41 point games (I so tried to pick him up this week and it got all screwed up, so he still is unclaimed) but he should get points.
