gasface 0 Posted November 11, 2015 The Packers have made a switch at running back: "I would say James Starks is our No. 1 back right now going into Detroit. He's played well and deserves that opportunity. Still will use a 1-2 punch with Eddie Lacy." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AintNoStoppinMeNow 68 Posted November 11, 2015 According to reports out of Wisconsin, upon hearing the news of his demotion, Lacy headed to the local Chinese buffet after practice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
multimoussa 0 Posted November 11, 2015 I drafted the dude in the first round. in 0.5 ppr whou would you start Lacy or Jordan MAthews?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaintsInDome2006 128 Posted November 11, 2015 That seals him as a bust. Hypothetically you could trade him, knowing he's the starter and having Detroit and a good schedule in front of him, but now there's not even that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 1,011 Posted November 11, 2015 Thank god. I own them both and this bullshit of getting fat eddie going over an obviously better starks is absurd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niner49er 6 Posted November 11, 2015 I remember McCarthy saying last season when we were in fantasy football playoffs(against Buff) that it would be a RBBC, and Starks rarely saw the field and it was all Lacy running on Buff, and he did quite well. If you have a starter or high volume RB, I would definitely go with them over Starks. The okie doke will be a hard pill to swallow if you start Starks and Lacy takes off.

Niner49er 6 Posted November 11, 2015 I could be wrong but think this is a game where they'll absolutely demolish the Lions and it'll be a rare game where they'll run the ball 20+ times, their volume guy is Lacy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SaintsInDome2006 128 Posted November 12, 2015 Funny thing is that even in ordinary circumstances when Starks was the backup I'd think Starks would actually be a decent sleeper start vs the Lions. Lacy could still be a goal line play and also a closer, Lacy could still be a decent start depending on your RB situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobSanders_33 127 Posted November 12, 2015 Buy low. When has James Starks EVER been consistently good? Like...seriously. There are all kinds of examples of players that got better during their careers. I'm an owner of both Starks and Lacy. Starks looks like he is running better than ever before. Lacy looks like a poor man's Trent Richardson. He looks fatter. Most people agree on that. It also looks like his balance is off and he isn't running with power or confidence. Two weeks ago on the goal line he attempted to bounce it outside instead of lowering his shoulder at the one. Last week he was running between tackle/guard and tipped over with minimal contact. If people think that Starks is just a one week wonder and Lacy will be back take advantage of that. They might think they are getting one over on you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
