Deuce Mcallister

Recommended Posts

I know NO is playing the worst rushing D in the league (KC) but how can fantasy website suggest starting a guy (Deuce) who had only 5 attempts last sunday? Even with Bush out of the game, Im no so sure he's a good start. Like I said, last Sunday (with no Bush) they only have Deuce the ball 5 frickin times! They also used Stecker and Pierre Thomas. Somebody convince me to start Deuce cause based on last Sunday, how can anyone start him?

I agree with you. Sure, he may get a short TD run to salvage his game, but NO uses 3 runners and passes a ton. I wouldn't start him.

I was planning on starting him against KC. I didn't realize he only got the ball 5 times last week. Surely they'll give it to him more against KC. I think I'm just going to roll with him and Addai against HOU.

what makes you think he'll do better this week considering last weeks' 5 attempt performance?

 

They had to throw a lot last week because they were behind. And Deuce still got 9 points(in my league) on those 5 carries. Also:

 

from CBS Sportsline:

 

With the Chiefs defense missing as many as six starters and the team ranked dead last vs. the run, there is a lot of potential for McAllister to have a big game Sunday at Kansas City. Think of him as a low-end No. 2 Fantasy RB.

 

In other words I think they'll run a lot. I'm also going by my situation. I'm 9-1 and have a playoff spot locked up. My other choice is Hightower. I just love the potential of this matchup too much to pass on.

Would you start Deuce over LT?

Hey guys, how do you think this looming suspension that is likely going to be handed down tuesday will affect how they use him this week. Do they give it to him all day to use him before they lose him, or do they give it to P. Thomas and Stecker to try to get them into the flow before they lose McAllister? Just another thing to think about when trying to decide whether to start him or not. With all that, who would you guys start, McAllister or Fargas?
