SteelersPride said:

i agree with u. on all accounts. I guess im not seeing how he has the job. Ajayi had the job, smallwood had the job, clement had the job. And one weird gameflow game.........adams had more looks but not crazy useage

Ajayi was the only one who actually had the job.

And with him, Pederson said he wanted to limit touches to keep him fresh for late season/playoffs.

No need for that now. Philly may have to win every game on their schedule to get in. The Eagles will feed their best back and that back is Adams.

ok @tlance before i fell asleep last night i decided to follow your advice. I put my eggs in the adams basket and blew my faab on him, im out of monye now.......im trusting your genius!

I also somehow got dontrel inman who i had like 6th on my faab order........which makes no sense.......

So no one claimed gus edwards, so i re-dropped inman and picked him up.

Also coutee was still there, so i dropped crabtree for him.

im pleasantly pleased with my aquisitions

@tlance i just read this on fantasypro's and this guy puts my thoughts into words much better than I can, so i guess this is what Im trying to say

"
The Eagles embarrassed themselves in the Superdome on Sunday, but undrafted rookie Josh Adamsaveraging over 6.5 yards per carry for the third straight game.

Neither Corey Clement Wendell Smallwood had more than two, so Adams certainly looks like the lead back at the moment. The problem is that Adams still doesn’t have double-digit rushing attempts in a game this season, and the Eagles have been committed to a messy three-man backfield all season long.


The most promising part of Adams’ performance was that he saw six targets in the passing game, after seeing just one for the entire season up to that point. Nothing in Doug Pederson’s track record suggests that he is about to give Adams 15-20 carries a game, so he’ll need to play a significant role in the passing game to emerge as a trustworthy RB3/flex, let alone RB2."

i did pick him up and will start him most likely, but im not sold

I'm not starting him. I picked him up in case he blows up and becomes usable.

SteelersPride said:

I really hope this changes. This is a sinking feeling not trusting my gut in the eagles backfield. So far featuring clement

tlance said:

So, Josh Adams broke a 50 some yard TD on his only carry, called back by a weak hold. He has not been on the field since. Crazy.

tlance said:

LOL.

Ok now?

Adams has looked really good. Word is he might have had a minor injury in the first half limiting his work.
