Kinda disappointed that Ryan didn’t look to Ridley. I saw one throw on the first drive which he dropped. That was the only target I saw. Yes, I know rookie WR don’t get many targets, but they needed someone else at the end.

I have Coleman as a flex and if freeman’s Knee keeps him out of games my flex is gonna be a solid rb#2

Jangsy, think about it, if a defense holds the offense on downs from the 9, you don’t call it a Goal line stand amirite?

Football reference classifies it inside the 3, they are the end all be all on statistics, let’s go with them

Coleman is the more dynamic back of the two. I think you're going to see a lot more of what you saw tonight between them.

That sucks....didn’t end up owning him in any leagues, not because I avoided him just never available to me at a decent price point

I faded freeman, got a few shares of Coleman though. He will be a stud if he ever got full reign of that backfield

his ADP is too high for a guy that was gonna get a 60/40 split at best anyway

I’ve got freeman in 2 leagues and I also have Coleman in the same 2 leagues. Just like I’ve got gio in both leagues that I drafted mixon.

I agree. Coleman would be a RB1 if he ever got into a situation where he was the lead back.

I agree with you that was a psych reference

I have Freeman and Ajayi. Looks like Ajayi is my best back until Ingram comes back.

Unfortunately I can't argue, he was the best available and when it came back around I ended up with Lamar Miller

Freeman got hurt in the 4th quarter, that probably played a part in that situation inside the 10. Said he was ok after the game and doesn't anticipate missing time

Freeman had 4 chances inside the 3 on the first drive and didn't score.

Coleman steals 30 to 40% of his snaps.

I picked Freeman in the 3rd round. I thought it was a steal at the time, but it’s looking like Coleman will make me regret that. Sark sucks

I would not get down on freeman yet. Like mentioned he had multiple chances to punch one in from the GL and come away with a 13 burger

In the current RB landscape, those receptions and especially TDs are becoming all the more important in these time share type situations. Snaps and TDs are hard to predict, that’s why we fade most RBs!
