Turner

Murray

Words of wisdom

I wouldn't start Peterson, he hasn't played any preseason and I think the Vikings are going to ease his return and limit his carries early in the season.

So far Michael Turner only has 18 total yards. Adrian Peterson already has 2 touchdowns.

Keep Fred Jackson and ride it out with Jones-Drew and Bradshaw or drop him in favor of Johanthan Dwyer who is expected to get more touches this week than last (43 yards on 9 rushes last week), for a short-term fix that might not even be needed?

I would stick with Jones-drew and Bradshaw.

Jackson will be back in 4 or 5 weeks and someone will pick him up. Bradshaw is a productive player. I have no problems using him. Jones-Drew will be back to norm soon.

I agree with this, and I'd keep Jackson and see what happens in 5 weeks. If he sucks then drop him, if not then keep him

You've got mjd and Bradshaw. I'd drop Jackson who will be coming off injury with only 1 game in him in how long. Grab dywer. If he sucks in 5 weeks drop him.

You made the safe play, and it just didn't work out in your favor. Shit happens. That's why we play this game.


You had little reason to start Peterson, and every reason to start Turner. Turner has 1000+ yards rushing in 3 of the last 4 seasons, and Peterson wasn't going to play much, plus coming off of knee surgery.


If it makes you feel any better, I started Turner. And I started Williams over Peterson, as Stewart is hurt, and Williams Was #1. Williams put up 1.6 points. Turner put up 3. I lost by 5 pts.

Agreed. I didn't pick Peterson cause all I heard was the Vikings were going to ease his return this season. I don't think anyone saw that coming from Peterson. I have Micheal Turner and I somewhat have buyers remorse over that. I don't think he's going to get the amount of carries that he's gotten in the past. Oh well, it is what it is.

I posted that during the game. I was just discouraged that not only did Peterson play a lot of snaps and get some decent yardage and 2 scores, but also Turner's lack of any real production just pissed me off. You win some, you lose some, such is life.
