:trash: Couple MCM's injury woes to the fact that SF RBs have trouble staying healthy... 5 different team rushing leaders in the last 6 seasons.

CMC for 11 games will make it 6 rushing leaders in 7 seasons!

Hackett claims Gordon will start in week 7, with Murray available off the bench.
Which was the case last week when Gordon got 3 carries.
Coach speak is so stupid. They think they’re playing chess.

rumor mill on local Denver Radio is they're doing whatever they can to bolster any potential trade value for Gordon. Good luck, the Rams have found no takers for Akers yet, and Gordon couldn't hold a candle to CMAC even when he was a top 10 RB in the league

Hard to believe anyone will be looking to trade for Gordon, when he spent most of the summer seeking a team to sign him. No takers. He hasn’t exactly bolstered anything to change minds…and I don’t see any team in contention that needs an RB.

Good luck, is right.

how many snaps/touches are we expecting CMC to get this week?

Shanahan runs a lot of unique formations and I'd imagine has a pretty robust playbook for a new guy to learn, but RB is one of the most transitory positions in the league

I'd say 8-12 touches, including a few near the goal line.

I'd put the over under at 15.5

I would imagine most normal situations hell be out there, but if they get find themselves facing lots of blitz situations and whatnot, I have to imagine they'd want someone who is %100 on protections, audibles/adjustments out there, or JimmyG may join Lance on the IR

Other than those team specific calls, adjustments at the line, stuff like that, running plays are running plays for the most part.

That's kind of the problem this week. If he's in, he's probably getting the ball, and the D will know it.

Since he got traded late week, not sure if he even gets a practice in. I'll say less then 10 plays, likely closer to 5 and maybe even none.

Yeah, sure wish they would have traded fer him earlier in the week. So:
CMac
Gallup
Thornton

Who you trotting out there? Still think it's CMac but Gallup is interesting.

I’d guess 40 yds and a TD for Run CMC, with Gallup having about the same chance at TDs but probably more yards….

I would say youd need some seriously high floor options to not go with CMAC unless they flat out come out and say 'we're not playing him'
Gallup could just as easily go 2 for 30 as he could 6 for 150 and 2. If CMAC plays, he's near guaranteed to hit 10+ points

It's a league where long TDs count a lot more than short TDs.

Well, if I sit him Gallup goes 2-30, if I play him Gallup goes 10-200-3................since I only own CMac in one league and Gallup in 2 (one being the Will/Sam bottom team.......lol) might just stick with CMac...........I do have time to change my mind..........and a guy going Monday night if needed.

You think you got problems. I have to play 2 of 3 between CMAC, Jeff Wilson, and D'Onta Foreman. The only other options I have are Antonio Gibson and Zay Jones, everybody else is on bye. Really wish they could have held off until the beginning of next week.

It honestly might just bring even more disappointment to CMAC owners. Better fit for him but one injury and that’s 3 1st’s, 2nd, 2 3rd’s, 4th and a 5th riding the pine. I hope to see him healthy even though I now own him in 0/10 leagues. Even though I despise him I am not taking it to heart

True, but if Gallup doesn't get one...??
CMAC is every bit the potential HR hitter Gallup can be.
Either is a gamble, but I think the odds favor the RB, and less of a chance of completely crapping out.
