mgs316 14 Posted November 15, 2011 I haven't seen a single carry so is the Seattle line getting better? Marshawn just playing better? Or just the fact he is the only horse in town? My rb #2's suck so he is the man now. Rams, skins, eagles, rams, nice matchups coming up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seadog54 20 Posted November 16, 2011 Lynch is in full beast mode now... look at his next 4 games: @STL, WAS, PHI, STL he isn't fast, but he is a bruiser... runs between the tackles and runs hard. And he gets almost all of the goal line carries. Seattle will have to rely on the run if they plan on winning any more games. And expect Lynch to get at least 25 touches each game if not more. Not bad for a low draft pick or FA pickup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted November 16, 2011 Just be warned I will be playing him for the first time this week, so his streak will surely come to an end. Surely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This feels like a focking trap! It's not so much of his stats that have impressed me but WHO he's run well against lately. He put up 22+ points vs. DAL and 24+ vs. BAL...WTH is going on here.

diomed1 0 Posted November 16, 2011 Seattle's young O line is getting better with run blocking but lost their starting RG for the season last week. I am mixed on this. Is it the coaching that's getting better or is it the individuals? I don't know so I will watch Lynch another week on my bench. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted November 16, 2011 He's the same power back he's been all year, the line is just starting to improve despite injuries. The coaching staff has the offense dumbed down enough where Tavaris can be effective too. Nursing a lead that had shrunk to 5 points because of a wave of stupid, bone-headed, self-inflicted penalties, Lynch completely broke the back of the Ravens defense in Seattle's final possession. He was pushing the pile and dragging defenders to 1st downs, helping Seattle drain the clock. It was AWESOME and indicative of the effort he's put in all season finally starting to pay off. Beware, Seattle is young and dumb and any good run is always in jeopardy of getting called back due to holding, illegal hands to the face, fighting, etc. Also, bad Tavaris is always lurking around the corner. Seattle finally has some physical talent, but they still have a lot of growing up to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not touching Lynch with a 10ft pole the rest of the season. Seattle has awful depth on their Oline. Maybe I can't tempt an idiot in my league for a trade before the weekend? lol.

krusin 0 Posted November 17, 2011 I was just offered a trade of Lynch for Miles Austin... I was about to pull the trigger. Not that Austin has done anything lately... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krusin 0 Posted November 17, 2011 Per DraftSharks.com: Seahawks RG John Moffit went down last weekend with a season-ending knee injury. On Wednesday, RT James Carpenter tore his ACL during practice. The losses obviously aren't good news for the continuity of an offensive line that had paved the way for 2-straight 100-yard rushing days for RB Marshawn Lynch. But we should also point out that Pro Football Focus rates Moffit and Carpenter as Seattle's 2 worst run-blockers. It'll be a situation to monitor, but we're not expecting Lynch to be impacted much. He remains a quality fantasy option against the Rams this Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted November 17, 2011 I just heard about Carpenter. Injuries are hitting hard. However, Carp has been VERY inconsistent. In all honesty, not having him in the lineup could be a plus short-term...the guy was racking up penalties like crazy! As far as Moffitt, the French-named guy that replaced him did a pretty good job against a good defense last week. Theses injuries might not make much of a difference. Backups have been stepping up for inured players pretty admirably all season. I would start Lynch over Greene FWIW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDC 7,407 Posted November 18, 2011 I watched last weeks game and Lynch was a monster in the 4th quarter: making defenders miss and dragging tacklers 2-3 yards after contact. He also looked a lot faster than I expected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fantasy Noob 10 Posted November 18, 2011 He is a decent #2 RB. The TD thing is hard to predict but Tavaris is good enough to keep people honest and he is a physical runner that will get most of his yardage late in games. Unfortunate since my beloved Seahawks normally wont be milking a lead. However the next 4 games look pretty sweet for him and that performance against the Ravens will be fresh in the coaches minds. He has been getting opportunitites all year long, but the O-line is just recently beginning to flash its potential. The Moffit loss combined with the Carpenter loss is devastating though. Carpenter looks like he is out for season. http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/redskins/seattle-loses-rookie-rt-james-carpenter-for-season-because-of-torn-acl/2011/11/17/gIQADRlvUN_story.html We just cannot catch a break...

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted November 22, 2011 He looked strong on Sunday, despite his line (who considering the circumstances weren't too bad). The entire team is playing hard, mental mistakes are their biggest problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fantasy Noob 10 Posted November 22, 2011 I picked Lynch up in 6 different leagues and he finally is rewarding me, unfortunately it could be too late . Oh well it's nice to be right about something every now and again. He has 750yds/20receptions/6TD's and I was guessing he would have 1200ish total yds/40rec/8TD thats pretty good for a 5th-7th round pick #3 type RB pick. They are kind of underutilizing his pass catching abilities in my opinion but I like the down field passing game this year so I can't complain. I still am kicking myself I went so heavy on Lynch over Fred Jackson on my teams though darn it, if I had only evened it out a little bit more. Darn hindsight.

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted November 28, 2011 He was on his way to icing another win for Seattle, just PLOWING through the Washington defense in the 4th quarter. If his defense didn't choke and give up 2 long TDs he would have put up even better numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if I make it to the final hopefully I have another option. Yeah, I agree with this. Especially with the QB situation, Chicago is going to leave opposing offenses with some decent field position. But as for the championship game against the 49ers in Week 16 (if that's when your Final is), Lynch will be useless despite how well he's been producing.
