tbk420 3 Posted October 17, 2012 Looks like I've got to roll with him as a bye week replacement, and I haven't seen a single carry! Does he have any potential? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChocolateTown 4 Posted October 18, 2012 I watched the whole game. Powell looked raw, but has some burst and shifty moves. It was a near even timeshare with Stephens-Howling (the popcorn fart), but I expect it to tip more in Powell's favor this week. Vikings run D is much tougher than the Bills though, so temper expectations. 13-15 rushes for about 60 yards, plus another 15 receiving sounds about right.

KSB2424 3,086 Posted October 18, 2012 Due to bye week I'm having to decide between Powell and DeAngelo. So keep this thread going, I need some insight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish75 0 Posted October 18, 2012 AZ homer here. Powell looked really good in preseaon (against second stringers), and he looked strong last week. He moved the ball well, and there was a noticeable difference in the O vs. when Stephens-Howling was in. But, he blew the handoff when Kolb was hurt, so Whisenhunt might keep the split more in favor of Stephens-Howling. Skelton is a veeeery stiff QB, and doesn't have any of the scrambling ability that Kolb had. Might impact the Cards' ability to run the ball this week (which was going to be difficult regardless against the Vikes ). Long-term, though, I think Powell will be solid.

We Tigers 71 Posted October 18, 2012 I'm not an AZ fan, but I did pick him up last week and watched the game with some interest. I think it's a fair assessment that he was raw, gonna give it to ya, with no trivia, raw like cocaine straight from Bolivia. Start him with confidence, because Will-Tang is forever.

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted October 18, 2012 3 Different Definitions on a popcorn fart from Urban Dictionary: A faint non smelly fart, hardly worth the effort. The rapid firing of several small farts, that when done correctly, sounds quite similar to a small mouse riding through the house on a motorcycle. Putt putt putt putt putt! something that is very dry. also RIP ODB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

American Chewy 98 Posted October 18, 2012 still surprised powell is a starting RB in the nfl. he hardly saw the ball in college as a backup to daniel thomas. was a great kick returner though till he broke his leg. def rooting for the kid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PATSSOX 22 Posted October 19, 2012 The little i saw him last week he looked good. Actually moved it better than the Wells and Williams. Im in need for a TE this week and have offered Powell for Heath Miller and the guy is hesitant to take it Miller is his 3rd TE and still hesitant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm offering Powell, Wells and J-Stew for Andre Roberts (who I will waive), Jared Cook (who I will probably waive) and Lesean "Shady" McCoy, who is underperforming and on a bye this week. I think it's a fair offer. It helps him right now, helps me long term. Not the team in sig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Giants Fan 85 Posted October 19, 2012 McCoy has been shiat. Tom Brady has more rushing TDs than McCoy this year. I think he's a perfect buy low this week, and I don't want to have to give up Greg Jennings to make it happen. The guy I am trying to trade with, I also want him to win this week, so I am trying to offer him players that help him right now, without losing any of my studs. He probably will decline it but ... after losing Benson, and bad news on the Jhavid Best lotto ticket, I really could use a decent RB. If not McCoy .... who should I target? Mr. Smarty pants.

Powell, Wells, and JStew is pretty much a pile of crap. McCoy hasn't been great this year, but he's put up consistent points each week and sure as hell better than a guy who is always injured, a 3rd stringer on the worst run offense in the league, and a guy who competes with 3 other guys in the backfield. You don't trade a dollar for 3 dimes. As a McCoy owner, I wouldn't accept Wells, Powell, and Jennings for him either, but it's worth proposing as it has a better chance of being accepted (and yes, I would take that in a heartbeat if I was you).

Giants Fan 85 Posted October 19, 2012 I'm 5-1. Second in the league and ahead in my division by 2 games. I drafted Cruz, Jennings and Austin for a reason. I already offered him a trade that involved Austin. I also have Morgan, Avery, Henderson ... I don't need any more WRs, but McGahee, Spiller, W. Powell/Wells ... my RBs are just kinda .... OK, after losing Benson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChocolateTown 4 Posted October 19, 2012 I can't think of Stephens-Howling and not think of "popcorn fart." 2 years ago, LSH took a dump-off 50+ yards to beat the Cowboys in OT. Was such a sick play.

Giants Fan 85 Posted October 19, 2012 That's what they said about Tiki Barber ... that's what they said about Darren Sproles and Wayne Chrebet. Those guys are the one, one millionth percent of short guys that can play in the NFL. Most short guys are not Doug Flutie. If you are under 5 foot 10, you are not a man. That's all I'm saying. You are not a real man, for the most part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
