I am starting _________ over Montee Ball this week

Recommended Posts

Whos rolling with Montee this week, despite the matchup? Sea has already knocked out two RB in a game ( mathews, lacy) in 2 weeks. My only other options are Toby white legs.Gerhart or Fred Jackson. Think ill stay with Montee for now unless someone convinces me otherwise.

 

Sea giving up 3.7 YPC

 

Sea allowed only one rushing TD ( kuhn garbage)

Debating on whether to start him or not. Got plenty of rb options that are great. I'll do some research later on today and determine who I want to start as my rb2

I have Ball in 4 of 6 leagues and, right now, I think I'm playing Donald Brown over him in all of them.

Thinking the same thing but I'm having a hard time pulling the trigger!

I would sit him and roll out a number of other options.

 

I would even start Rainey tomorrow night despite the uncertainty of touches with Martin back.

As a Saints fan, and what I witnessed last year with the Seattle playoff game, I've made it a rule of thumb not to start any offensive players with @SEA next to their name. I told everyone I knew that if I was a Rodgers owner, I would not have started him in week one. Now this week, I AM a Ball owner, and in addition to not being impressed with him so far this season, he is playing at Seattle, and will be riding my bench. It's as simple as that.

 

I was going to go with Terrance West and Zac Stacy, but now that I was able to pick up Asiata in my league (who was inexplicably still a free agent after the waivers went through), I am considering replacing one of them. But when it comes to Ball, there is no choice.

I'm starting him...If I don't he'll get 3 TDS. (Sat Marshall last week :doh: :wall: ) Plus I think Denver's going to use CJ anderson on the bruising short yardage plays anyway.

 

 

Yeah, Ball vs Seattle Bell Vs Carolina....Don't think I'll be going 3-0

I'm trying to trade Ball and Matty Ice for Peyton Manning and a throw away. Hope it works!

I'm really tempted to start J. Hill over Ball this week. L. Miller is my RB2. I could see Hill getting 15 touches and a TD against that Tenn. defence. I'm not sure I can expect much from Ball.

I'm a ASYS guy, so Ball stays in my lineup. Slightly tempted to start Khiry or DBrown over him, but I won't. He'll catch 3 screens for TD's if I do.

I'm tempted to start Rainey and maybe even Bradshaw over him this week

Thinking about Knile over Ball if Charles is out.

Thinking? Don't quit your day job.

 

I'm starting all-or-nothing Vereen over Montee.

Starting Lacy, Asiata and Bradshaw over Ball.

 

Terrible reach in the early 2nd round for Ball by me.

Ball runs about as violently as a clown beating a midget with a balloon.

Well...Not sure I'd be lamenting Ball so much...

 

He's been better than Lacy through two games...

And this is why one of my two teams is 0-2. That, and RGIII was my starter, along with Garçon.

14 team league and I'm starting Demarco Murray and Knile Davis at RB and currently have Ball in my flex, but toying with sitting him for either Woodhead or taking a flyer on Devante Adams :shocking: I have a feeling that game will be a shootout and he could vulture a TD adnd 70 yards. Trent Richardson likely to remain on the bench.

Considering J. Bell, D Brown or C Ivory in his place. Terrified of a pissed off Seattle D tbh

 

Don't know who to start between those 3 though

That would apply if Ball were a stud. Hes more like just a guy you drafted within the first few rnds. Khiry scoring 2 goal lin plunges is more likely.

I am really tempted to throw fred jackson in. I think Montee is destined for about 5-6 pts. Do I dare start white lightning, Toby tenacious Gerhart? Decisions, decisions!!!

I am starting anyone I have over Montee Ball. He is not going to do well today I believe.

12 team 2 RB league w/ FLEX. Starting Forte, West and K. Allen (as long as he's good to go) over Ball. Have Alfred Blue, Brandin Cooks and Shane Vereen as other flex options. Thoughts?
