Title: RUN RICKY RUN?????
Post by tedlawver on Oct 31^st, 2003, 7:23am

It seems lately every team the Ricky's number and he can't get it going. Brian Greise is a passing machine and based on the previous years he will pass the ball.

Would I be better to go with Ricky Williams this week vs. the Colts or Marcell Shipp vs. The Bengals?

You're still better off with Ricky. He hasn't had the type of numbers he had last year, but with Griese able to pass the ball, it should open things up a bit for Ricky.

Marcel Shipp had a real nice week 8, but don't count on 165 every week. Cincinnati has an improved defense and has played very well lately.

DON'T BENCH YOUR STUD! Indy is actually vulnerable to the run! I actually think you have two good options there, but, nevertheless, DON'T BENCH YOUR STUD!

Steg hit it.

Bench him and regret his big week or play him and have M. Shipp have a huge week. The chances are more in favor of Ricky.

Teams have been stuffing the line and daring Feidler to beat them. SD had the same philosophy last and were surprised when Griese did beat them with his arm. Indy D should have more respect for Griese as a result and Ricky should see more running daylight this week.

If this is your choice who is your other starting RB?
