ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Seahawks are now uncertain whether Marshawn Lynch (back spasms) will play Sunday at Arizona.
**It's amazing...I was sitting at #12 in my 12 team draft and EVERY RB I thought had potentially high enough value to be drafted there had some injury concerns EXCEPT Lynch (or so I thought). Is this the injury issue which caused him to miss a game in the middle of last season?
Lynch may be out week 1

Yep, caused him to miss the Browns game. This could be a constant problem this year. Hopefully you drafted Turbin.

If he can't receover from a back spasm in 6-7 days his nickname should changed to B1tch Mode.

Like Harvin's head, Lynch's back is a constant you just have to deal with if you have him.
I don't.
I don't.

What do you expect? He's been carrying Seattle since mid season last year!

I didn't like him this year anyways. I always viewed him as a rb2. He's going to be nothing but a head ache all year for where he was drafted

Guy in my league grabbed Turbin in the 8th round so I'm stuck without him. I'll just put Lynch in the flex spot and put in Decker if Lynch doesn't play.

2011-12 NY Jets and NFL predictions:
- NY Jets go 13-3 and win the AFC east (wrong)
- Sanchez and Tebow makes the AFC ProBowl roster (wrong)
- No rookie QBs will finish in the top 15 @ the QB position using FFToday scoring (way wrong)
- NE Patriots will not make playoffs (wrong)
edit: Oh well. Not too good. I'll try harder next year!
J-E-T-S! Jets! Jets! Jets!

Someone grabbed Turbin in my league also. Guess i will be starting either R. Bush or D. Brown (in a PPR) any ideas?

Twice now I've heard that Turbin & Washington would share carries.

I think the most annoying thing is getting the game time decision status...In the 2 leagues I drafted Lynch, I grabbed Turbin. Would be nice to know on Lynch's game status on Saturday.

I use to play as a goalie in college and suffered ack spasms. Yes they are extremely painful and you cannot move, but they do have drugs to keep the swelling down. Can't be out for more than 2 days tops. Get him in a ice bath.

Sweet. I picked Turbin up 3 days ago! Now I'll package him with Tamme to get a solid WR out of the Lynch owner.

It's much better collecting stray kats and crapping your pants on occasion. Trust me.
