Guys, sorry to say by i am loosing faith in Thomas Jones(sorry Jetman) i don't think it is his fault i believe his O-Line are NOT doing there jobs.. That said looks like Deuce Mac. is back and the Saints are using him like they did a couple years back, he is getting the goaline touches , That said would you drop TJ for the Deuce, i do LOVE the matchups that TJ has coming up after his bye week..
thoughts??
Tough call, thaas. I don't know if Deuce is going to get 20 rushes a game like he did today. If he can get those kinds of carries, then it would be worth considering.
That being said...TJ has a weak schedule coming up (Cincy, Oakland, KC, St. Louis). If the Jets' O-line can get their act together, I think he will start getting TDs.
Your right, it just frustrating. esp since he did not start, & i don't blame him but the O-line, plus TJ did start running better toward the end of the game...
thanks!!
I'll let jets answer this. My thoughts last week were to drop TJ and get Ronnie Brown and keep Stewart. I think this is a tougher choice than that one.
This is a very tough choice indeed. Honestly (with all biases aside), I would probably keep TJ because of Deuce's recent injury history. TJ is the #1 back & doesn't share many carries & goal-line touches. Combine that with the weak Jets' schedule coming up, and I would probably be inclined to keep him over Deuce.
This isn't Jet bias talking as I am also frustrated with his lack of success near the endzone (more to do with poor O-line play). However, I still would be inclined to keep him over Deuce at this point.
Tough call, though.
Ya i know i could NOT have gotton Ronnie even if i wanted to the lowest guy on WW put a claim in he got him..
I remember you saying that, I just meant that to show that I haven't been high on TJ ever since he struggled in week 2 (I think)...he's looking like a risky start week by week.
ya i know.. seems like my luck has been to let a guy go then he has a HUGE game, thats what scares me, and like Jetman has pointed out the Jets have cincy coming and if anything can get a guy back on track it could be the Bengals
I hope so. I have TJ in a league as well (flex spot). It would be nice if he can pick it up.
So Double D.. you would stick with TJ over Deuce???
That's a tough call. Since Deuce got 20 touches, it makes it hard to say, but I'd stick with him one more week. If Deuce pulls that type of performance again, I'd have to say let TJ go for him.
Thanks!!
Ronnie Brown was on the WW last week and we picked him up. We dropped Young to do it. I really think Brown will do alot more than Young (RBBC).
