DanXIII 8 Posted October 23, 2011 DIAF shanny. I'm a couple of points down in Second Money League this week and ANY production by Torain would likely have won it for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pee-diddy 27 Posted October 24, 2011 Maybe Torain will get the lion's share Week 8 IF Hightower's injury keeps him out of the game. This probably means that Helu will get 30+ touches. LOL CBS: Tim Hightower, RB WAS News: Washington RB Tim Hightower returned to his starting role on Sunday in Week 7 at Carolina. Hightower started and Ryan Torain didn't even see the field until after halftime in the game. Hightower rushed 17 times for 88 yards before injuring his knee in the game. Hightower headed to the locker room on a cart and could not return for Washington, as Torain took over the running game. Hightower suffered a sprained left knee and avoided serious injury as he says he did not feel a pop in the knee. Hightower underwent X-rays that came back negative and initial ACL tests were good news as well. That said, his knee is sore and he'll undergo an MRI Monday. Analysis: Hightower's injury seems to be the only thing keeping him from being the top option in the running game for coach Mike Shanahan and the Redskins. The Redskins went exclusively to Hightower before the injury, so who knows how the two will be used next week in Buffalo, should both be healthy. Hightower's health will be the most important thing to monitor through the practice week. The Redskins play at Buffalo in Week 8 and the Bills are allowing plenty of Fantasy points to opposing running backs. If Hightower is healthy for Week 8, consider him a No. 2 Fantasy RB. If not, that status goes to Torain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kent 228 Posted October 24, 2011 I dont think Hightower is gone 4 the season. We'll see tomorrow. Odds are he's done. Non contact injury to the knee is never good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teren 2 Posted October 24, 2011 2.2 points last weeks then -0.5 points this week and now that hightower goes down I might be able to convince myself he's worth a start next week. :wall: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kent 228 Posted October 24, 2011 Torain or Starks? Who's better going forward? Matchup based. Torain gets the Bills this week. Now, if he doesn't get most of the work, I'm quitting FF forever. Helu has looked poor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
