Shakespeare 0 Posted September 22, 2011 For what it's worth: "Whisenhunt won't be available to discuss Wells' injury until Friday. I don't think reporters will find out much even then. My guess? It's not a severe injury. Wells didn't have the leg wrapped as he came off the field, and he was at his locker for a portion of the media availability period." http://www.azcentral.com/members/Blog/KentSomers/142888 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madd futher mucker 36 Posted September 22, 2011 You guys must have no waiver restrictions and not much depth to pick up Chester Taylor. Not only did Taylor show absolutely no burst last year in Chicago, but The Arizona Republic's Kent Somers believes Beanie Wells' hamstring injury is likely minor. He reported that Wells did not have his leg wrapped as he came off the field on Thursday and made himself available to the media afterward. Per Rotoworld: "Chester Tayor would probably start against the Seahawks if Wells can't play Sunday, but LaRod Stephens-Howling would also be in line for a few carries as long as his injured hand checks out. Neither would be a recommended play against a Seahawks' run defense that has been stout early on this season." IMO no real fantasy news here, other than Beanie strained his mangina again as most predicted he would. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JT 137 Posted September 23, 2011 Neither would be a recommended play against a Seahawks' run defense that has been stout early on this season." Wells will play...though he's always a good candidate to grab his hammy and quit in warmups...but no AZ RB is a good play vs Seattle. Run defense is the one thing they do really well. This is a division opponent, and Seattle is a team desperate for a win. Their greatest weakness, the passing game, should have it's best day of the year vs the Cardinals "defense".

Wells tweeted last night that he came out to "rest his wheels". All the local reports are that it's a non-issue. AZ can't afford to lose what they see as a winnable division road game. If he can walk, he'll play. But as I said, it doesn't matter. Any AZ RB is a bad play this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In 2011, they are giving up 104... HOW THE HELL DO YOU SAY THEY DO REALLY WELL defending the run!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HOW THE HELL DO YOU SAY THEY DO REALLY WELL defending the run!!! They probably are holding opponents to a small YPC. But that doesnt matter much when the opponent always has a huge lead and therefore runs 30 times a game. Start Wells if healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HOW THE HELL DO YOU SAY THEY DO REALLY WELL defending the run!!! Saying they are bad at playing the run because they give up 104 yards rushing per game this seasion is pretty damn deceiving. I watched them vs the Niners and they did a damn good job containing Frank Gore. They kept the Niners to only 2.7 ypc. I didn't watch them vs the Steelers, but the steelers ran the ball 35 times with 3.5 ypc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't watch them vs the Steelers, but the steelers ran the ball 35 times with 3.5 ypc. Ok... sounds to me like the Seahawks are a pretty good matchup for any RB. They may have a decent run defense, but their offense can't do squat and they'll be playing from behind all year. Also, when the Steelers are up 24-0, it is no secret that they are going to run the ball, and defenses don't have to worry about the pass. Players don't get fantasy points for yards per carry. Arizona may try to take advantage of a weak Seahawk secondary, but will likely play with a lead for most of this one. If Beanie is healthy, he should be in line for plenty of touches. If he gets 2.5 ypc or 5 ypc, he should still put up decent numbers and has a pretty good chance to score a TD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HOW THE HELL DO YOU SAY THEY DO REALLY WELL defending the run!!! This season they're 15th, giving up a long of 20 yds. Their ypc of 3.1 is tied for third best in the league. They've had more attempts against them than all but 4 teams. They've trailed virtually every minute while teams have ground it out against them. They held Gore to 59 yds and a 2.7 ypc in week one. Pittsburgh got way ahead way early at home and still only managed about 125 yds on the ground. Sometimes you'll find that this year is more pertinent than last year, and that a look behind the basic numbers into what's really happening in the games would be beneficial.

This isn't even a TOP 10 rushing defense in the league. I can wager my number 1 fantasy football pick next year for anyone's 2nd rounder if Seattle finishes in the top 10 on rushing D this year.

Sometimes you'll find that this year is more pertinent than last year, and that a look behind the basic numbers into what's really happening in the games would be beneficial. When you are ahead as much as Pitts were in that game, you can afford to STACK the box because you know Mike Tomlin won't be airing it out like Brady and corp. YAC isn't going to explain jack. We'll see at the end of the year what the numbers are. They finished 22dn overall last year. Was there any significant upgrade on D? I know their Offense is going to hell this year which means D will be on the field even more. Also, after 2 games they already given up 3 rushing TD. They're on pace to give up 24 rushing TD. That can't be good... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
