Shane Vereen
Re: Shane Vereen
The difference is that Shanahan doesn't run a RBBC. He changes his featured back on a whim even when he has a guy posting big numbers. He is unpredictable and the decisions are impossible to follow. A guy could get 20 touches or none on any given week. Belichick employs a RBBC and has RBs with roles in his offense.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

Both coaches will still give you a headache with their RB decisions though, starting any of them on your fantasy team is like playing russian roulette "Christopher Walken in Deer Hunter" style

Re: Shane Vereen
Woodhead not expected to play. Eventhough, they have BJGE & Ridley, it will be somewhat telling to see how they use Vereen this week (assuming he's healthy?). The guy at some point HAS to see the field. You don't draft guys that high without expecting some kind of return.

I would've dropped one of the 3 WRs you have listed at the end of your roster (Roberts, Edelman..)pntgvn2399 wrote:Well I still own him in one league and just dropped him in my 10 team league.. Gave up what should be a late 3rd round pick for Collie and Vereen was the odd man out..

Re: Shane Vereen
That hasn't been updated... I don't have Roberts anymore and Edelman I am holding on to being this is Welker's last year under contract and we all know how they don't like giving contracts to older players (other than Brady)..

It was frustrating seeing the law firm get 27 carries today while Ridley only got 7.

Re: Shane Vereen
Both coaches use their RB's in different roles in their teams offenses but both also change their feature back on a whim IMO. Right when it looks like Ridley will be the man after an impressive week 4 game, Belicheck goes back to BGE and he responds with his own big game.skip wrote:The difference is that Shanahan doesn't run a RBBC.

I find both back fields extremely frustrating from a fantasy football viewpoint for the same reasons.

Re: Shane Vereen
Seems he couldn't outrun the Jets while BJGE was able to pound everything, I guess they wanted to lean on BJGE today. Vereen again had no role at all.kris_kapsner wrote:It was frustrating seeing the law firm get 27 carries today while Ridley only got 7.

Re: Shane Vereen
Had an opportunity to sell real high on Ridley in a package deal before Sunday's game and passed. Needless to say the owner has changed his tune.

Re: Shane Vereen
Wonder what it's gonna take for Vereen to get a shot at any offensive touches.. Woodhead is out and they don't even give him a single one.
