I'm looking at 12 to 14 carries for him. I think we'll run the ball 35 times or so. With him getting 14, I think Ricky will get about 18 carries with possibly another guy getting a couple.
Ricky starts and gets 60% of the snaps, but Ronnie will get 10-15 snaps. they want him in there, but want to ease him back and watch the ACL carefully.
I haven't seen anything but he will get his plays, It sounds like the thumb is good. I would think he will get plenty of plays.
STRAZ !! good to see ya. Coach said he would get a lot of work today.. we are going to punch them in the mouth all day.
The reason I'm asking is for fantasy football. I don't know if I should start Selvin Young, Ahman Green, or Ronnie Brown? any help?
What up bro! I havent been on a lot, because it's my junior year of high school and I'm the starting WR on my varsity team this year, and between homework, and practices I've been drained.
I'd put my money on Selvin to be honest. They're going up against the Raiders rush defense which is very poor. Green is injured and Slaton starts for them now I believe. Its between Ronnie and Selvin who are both splitting carries with someone. I recommend picking up Andre Hall if you can. He could be a steal.
I think we'll run the ball 40 times (if we don't fall behind early) with Ricky getting about 20-25 carries, Ronnie about 15, some end arounds, and some spells with another back. But, like I said, this is dependent upon not falling behind early in the game. If we can control the tempo of the game and not give up big plays early, we'll cram it down their throats.
Ronnie should've played more than Ricky. Ronnie did much more against the Jets in limited action than Ricky did all day.
i wouldnt say ricky did well at all. he had 10 carries for 24 yards... longest was 6 yards - big freaking deal. ronnie did a lil bit better, but by the time he got his carries, we were down.
