Title: Who is the better RB?
Post by DC_Disaster on Oct 22^nd, 2003, 8:09am

Who is the better RB for the remainder of the season?

S. Davis or Jamal Lewis or Shaun Alexander? ?.?.?

They all are nursig injuies but it looks like Alexander has the better schedule. What do you think? ;D

Alexander finds the endzone a bit more than the other two as well. But I wouldn't mind having any of them.

Shaun clearly. They have the most Balanced team.

Yup, Shaun plays a lot more in the passing game of SEA too. If that counts in your league, it could be a big factor.

Granted, Lewis and Davis are rated #1 & #2 in yds/g but Alexander is has got just as many TDs. As you pointed out, the schedule seems to favor SA.

In the end, it's a close call but I agree with all here that from here on out, Alexander is the best FF option IMO.

GO VIKES!

I agree with all that has been said. Would you then trade S. Davis and M. Harrison for S. Alexander and T. Holt? Or stand pat with Davis and Harrison.

I'd do that deal. Shawks are a better offensive team and Alexander will benefit. As for Harrison and Holt, close to a toss-up, leaning toward Harrison, what with Rams emphasis on passing game with M. Faulk out of the equation. Yup. I'd do it.

I'd do the deal too. Alexander is an upgrade (slight) over Davis and Holt has been money lately - even more so than Harrison, though I'd be willing to bet that Harrison ends the season with a little bit better stats.

Yeah, I guess I would do it. I like the fact that Harrison doesn't share as many looks as Holt does. But I think you gain that back with the looks SAlexander sees in the Seahawks passing game.

I'd do it.

GO VIKES!
