How is C.Martin affected by Pennington's injury?

[brdmaverick]

I figure it is probably one of these scenarios....

A) With Vinny at QB, they will have to run more to have a chance at winning (which would be good for Martin).

B) With Vinny at QB, the defenes can pay more attention to Martin and thus decrease his value.

which of these scenarios is more likely

do you think Pennington's injury helps or hurts Martin's production?

While it may increase his touches, it could affect his productivity...unless Vinnie proves to be a threat in the passing game. Look for Martin and Becht to get a lot of short passes thrown their way.

If you get a point for a reception, you are probably in very good shape. I would think he would touch the ball more in the running game(with his yards per going down a bit) and catch a bunch of dump off passes.

well, that's good to hear, because our scoring system greatly benefits receiving running backs

I would think Martin have more touchs, but might not be as many tds.
