Gratefulegg1973 253 Posted September 28, 2014 22 yds last week. 2 yds through a quarter and a half this week. #1 overall my azz. Should have waited 13 rounds and took Sproles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted September 28, 2014 Add Calvin to the bust list as well. Basically just skip drafting at all in the first round next year. Just let the pick pass. Mcoy doesn't look that bad, they haven't had the ball much so it could pick up. Especially with a lead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted September 28, 2014 I would have waited another procession before calling him out. Timing is everything to fantasy gods Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MONIST 1 Posted September 28, 2014 amen to that. keep losing my ass because of him. last year he killed me because he was on the other that I was playing he got 150% over his projected stats. This year, as my number 1 pick, has not made projected stats yet. Bastard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roroco 75 Posted September 28, 2014 Between McCoy, AP, Forte, Charles, and Lacy, it is not like you made a bad choice at that pick. The top RBs are all struggling. At east your guys is not injured or a kid beater. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gratefulegg1973 253 Posted September 28, 2014 At least most of those other 1st rd picks have an excuse for being busts. McCoy just plain sucks. 6 carries for 6 yds. Wooohooo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robbykidd 3 Posted September 29, 2014 Something I noticed today that I haven't noticed before is how poor he pass blocks. He almost got Foles killed on a few whiffs. Sure enough, the next play in comes Sproles. It may be more on him than we realize. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted September 29, 2014 Then why has Sproles been SIGNIFICANTLY more productive thus far this season?Guy comes in mostly when it's third down or long distance yardage. It's sproles he always looks great in short spurts. How many times is he facing normal front 7 or 8? There is a reason he doesn't tote the rock more than a few times f 3 touches for 6 yards for sproles today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the fact of that matter is that Sproles has been the better back to own in FF thus far this season. And that is all I care about, production and points in fantasy football. Quarter thru the season, and McCoy has done next to nothing. Edit: also, I suggest you revisit the PHI @ IND game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bombs Away 4 Posted September 29, 2014 I'm not convinced that Chip Kelly is all there as a pro football coach. His best player touches the ball only 10 times, and gets ignored near the goalline? For a coach that supposedly brought the revolutionary "speed offense" to the NFL, he sure didn't keep the clock running, and the Niners D winded. Not to mention that stooopid decision that gave the Niners another chance on 3rd down. Kelly's not all he's quacked up to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to mention that stooopid decision that gave the Niners another chance on 3rd down. Kelly's not all he's quacked up to be. How do you keep the D winded when you're going 3 and out? Philly had 11 first downs all day, most of them on two drives (one of thsoe being the final drive of the game). I would agree that I'd have run McCoy on the 3rd and goal, if only to take more time off the clock should SF get the ball back. But their O-line is a steaming mess and got pushed backward all day. Until that is resolved, the offense won't resemble what was seen last year. The other 3rd down call was stupid imo though it cost them nothing on the scoreboard. Those extra second would have come in handy on the final possession. Eagles fan who listened to all the screams about Reid and his clock managment and refusal to run the ball. Thought about that yesterday as this was unfolding. Though I'm not sure how we mention Kelly's coaching without talking about Harbaugh. An absolutely terrible HC.
