I've been trying to tell you people and some of you stubbornly refuse to accept it. Maybe reading it from the coaches mouth will sway you to the RB side! Bahahah

He's pretty darn good at it, too!
A couple of times yesterday I thought he would be dropped, and he just ground for extra yards.
And the guy LOVES being a RB! That's just an extra reason to keep him there. Plus we KNOW he has good hands and can catch the ball out of the backfield.
Let's face it, Starks is a non-factor now. He can't muscle any extra yards anymore.

If it weren't for Starks being a non-factor, I'd still be in the "WR first but run him out of the backfield 5-10 times a game" camp. If Michael ends up being a stud I might go back into that camp but ultimately at this point he's better off in the backfield. I do hope they continue to move him around to mess with the defense though, I think it plays into his success.

Of course he attends the RB meetings. He is a WR who lines up in the backfield. He has to attend their meetings. 😝
Porforis pick a spot and make a stand. 🤣

He runs like a RB too. The only thing "not RB" about him is his jersey #

All joking aside - glad he came back from his injury last year. While I hadn't thought of him as a RB until lately, he does have a good handle on the position and seems to get those tough yards. It also works to our advantage as a "pass first" team that he has good hands - especially if you have seen the damage a RB can inflict when they have catching abilities.

On a side note - did aliens abduct and experiment on our coaching staff? The team has been showing up and doing anything but boring/predictable.

So let's step aside from Ty 2016 for a moment. Lacy may or may not come back next year. If he does it will be because he can't get top dollar because of injury and lack of production the past 2 years.

If Lacy does not return-

1 would you be comfortable seeing Monty get the Lacy-like 250-280 carries a season Eddie racked up in his first two years?

2. Would you want Ted to use a high draft pick (Round 2 or 3) on another RB? Walter football have more than 10 prospects that are good enough to be taken in the first 3 rounds. I would be surprised if that many are taken that high.

If eddie gets a payday from another team, Ted wont keep him. However, Ted is always for a "fair deal." Ty is still a good WR as well as rb.

That a combo a ninja would be proud of. Sometimes RB, sometimes WR. All good and deadly. Call him The Green Ninja, if you will 😁

2. If someone that's first-round quality drops to the second or third with no players available in areas of greater need, sure.

Honestly, I want to see more out of Michael. If he looks like a top-15 back then we don't really have a problem without Lacy.

Mucky Tundra (2h) : Rude!
beast (3h) : Martha? 😋
Zero2Cool (6h) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (9h) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (10h) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
