montana 89 Posted November 5, 2012 Nope...he deserves multiple threads! When I stepped away I was down by 75 points. Now I'm within about 30-35 points with Ryan, Julio, Graham, & Maclin yet to play. He single handedly saved the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philo312 41 Posted November 5, 2012 I've NEVER seen that many fantasy points from a rb.... Nuts. The only one close (I don't have the numbers nor the game) was LT. He had something like 46pts one year. -standard scoring Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrbdmb 28 Posted November 5, 2012 Dude. Martin goes from a low-end No. 1 running back to a low-end No. 2. Crushing blow for Nicks, for Martin owners and for the Buccaneers. Remind me not to pay attention to Matthew Berry anymore. Thank God I wasn't playing this monster today ... that said, 51 points ain't bad for a "low end No. 2".

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted November 5, 2012 Played Mcgahee over him. FOCK ME SIDEWAYS!!!!! Have you beat. Friend sat him last week for Morris and Lynch. TB loses key run-blocker...friend does it again this week. Total points league also, so that was about 72 points. To his credit he hasn't cut his wrists yet.

jerryskids 5,325 Posted November 5, 2012 The PREVIOUS record in our leage (10th season) was 50 by AP in week nine of 2007. Martin just scored 57.2 (.5 ppr) He had 51 in my league, tied for 3rd all time with Corey Dillon in 1997. Portis has the record of 54 in 2003. Alexander is second with 53 in 2002. Still awesome to see such a great performance. Especially when I wasn't playing against him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thre3Deep 0 Posted November 5, 2012 Just been sticking with him week after week, paying off now. This week just blew the up! D. Martin RB TB 42 @ OAK 32 (F) 251 RuYd, 4 RuTD (45,67,70,1), 21 ReYd, 4 Recpt, 25 RuAtt 77 Thats how many points he went for in my league. Along with Marshall and Decker, not a bad day. Have Julio going but he's being pretty much handled. Still have Brees and Celek tomorrow. Might be the first to eclipse 300 pts in a game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nospk 230 Posted November 5, 2012 3 rushing td's over 45 yds in a game -never been done since at least 1940. New franchise rushing record 251 yds in a game. and joined Denver's Mike Anderson as the only backs with at least 250 yards rushing and four TDs in a single game.

cbfalcon 824 Posted November 5, 2012 In his last season with Denver, Portis has 240 yards and 5 TDs. Making it even cooler was that it was during the FF playoffs. I remember it vividly because I owned him and a few days later found myself on drugs in a dance club (in Fort Worth, Texas), and I totally convinced myself the crowd was chanting "Clinton Portis" to a techno beat. I believed it. It made sense to me. The next day I sobered up and realized this was very unlikely. So the lesson is, if out at a club tonight and you think the crowd is doing a Doug Martin chant, you may have accidentally taken ecstasy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Football Guru 214 Posted November 5, 2012 It's an epidemic. People are so freaking scared to accept trades it's silly. I offered rg3 AND Alfred Morris for cj0k after week 2 and it was declined! This year was particularly bad for me on the trade front. My trade deadline ended about a 1 1/2 weeks ago and not a single trade I offered got accepted this year in four leagues, at least not the first time I offered it. I probably offered 50+ over the course of the year. The trades I did get done: (first player/group is one I received; second player/group is one I dealt) 1) DeMarco Murray for Luck (had Ryan, wanted a RB3) 2) Donald Brown for Pierre (like Brown's second-half schedule, but I only added him for depth) With injuries to Sproles, D-Mac, Goodson and T-Rich on a bye, Week 10 may have just become a nightmare in this league. 3) T-Rich/Martin/Tamme for CJ2K/MJD/Heath Miller I suppose (1) was one I offered, but I couldn't convince an 0-5 team at the time with QB issues to part with Alfred Morris, so I settled for Murray mostly b/c of a good bye-week matchup on Foster's bye and a Week 16 showdown vs. NO. I had to convince (2) to take the deal even though he was trotting out Mendenhall-Hardesty-A Brown and didn't have a single starting RB at the time. (3) was actually offered to me, I told him I didn't want it but left it up b/c I wanted to ponder it. I accepted it on the Friday before MJD got hurt.

BunnysBastatrds 1,947 Posted November 5, 2012 Drafted him in the third round. Was ridiculed by those that were pissed off that they diddn't land him. Who would you trade him for if you needed a WR and were good at RB and could part with him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
