By the way, any chance you see Parker out again this week? Would be nice with Peterson on a bye.

Still need someone to call this one.
Morris or Pittman tonight? I am leaning toward Morris for no particular reason.

2 backups have been huge for the past two weeks, M Moore and Correll Buckhalter. Any word on if they will start again this weekend?

have not heard anything yet, but I would assume that they would try to get him in vs Wash. if at all possible. I will certainly post if I hear anything.

One lucky pick does not make me an expert. This is a close call, but Denver hasn't been stopping with any consistency. Thing is that I like Pittman because I think he will have more chances to score. With Morris, you've got to assume the team will get the ball close enough to allow him to run it in. What are the odds of that?

I have the same question, but it's way too early to start obsessing over this just yet. I know I spent hours checking on Parker's status last week. I'm going to try to refrain this week. I have to work at some point.

no doubt, was just gonna ride the train . I need 16 points, so I really need to get lucky.

Good points. I am just weary of starting Pittman for some reason

Well, I do think that Denver is just as likely to throw at the goal line as run it. And don't forget that the Pats D is not suffering like the offense. This is just a toss up IMO. You're going to have to get lucky either way. And to get 16, you're going to need at least one TD.

If it were my team, Sammy Morris wouldn't be on it. I have never liked the guy. Also, being an LSU homer, I've always been a fan of Kevin Faulk (although I'm very disappointed in his recent drug arrest). Denver is softer against the run in the red zone and everywhere else. It sounds like you want to start Morris. Go with your gut. I had Pittman a few years ago. He did well when I played him. As you can see, my reasons for starting him would have nothing to do with logic. You are the owner/coach/GM of your fantasy team. You have to make the call.
