KRob finally coming back?

[smackthefirst]

Jackson is in the doghouse after dropping way too many passes and costing them the game last week. KRob was actually getting open and Hassleback was actually throwing to him. They play Det. this week.

Do you think that if KRob can have a good game this week, that he may return to form of the end of last season.

Im torn between trading him or Moulds.

hopefully the detroit game will be a good springboard to get him back to his old self of last year.... i think i may give him a chance this week.

Consider that Koren's drops aren't the only thing that's slowing him down this season.

Hasselbeck has been moving the ball to all different positions this season. He's not as dependant on the WR as in the last 6 games of 2002. Mack Strong (FB) is having a career year in not only carries but receptions as well. Both TE's have had their mitts on the ball over the last 4 games. And with the emergence of Maurice Morris being utilized in the backfield, that's just more snaps filtered from the WR passing game to the running game.

Wrap all this up with a sluggish offense as is...

It doesn't look good for Koren, regardless of schedule.

[greenman]

so you don't think he'd be a good start this week against Detroit?

[phitz]

i think he should be a good start against Detroit's defense, especially with the game at home. maybe he'll finally live up to his billing heading into this year.

[awwchrist]

who's the alternative greenman?

Admittingly, a home game against Detroit sounds desirable..But he's had plenty of opportunities agasint weak passing defenses before.

[greenman]

the alternatives are:

E Moulds v Houston
K McCardell v GB
I Hilliard v Philly
R Wayne v Jets

I'm for sure going to start 2 maybe 3 depending on if i can use Rudi johnson at flex this week or not.

[awwchrist]

Well you'ver got a verrrrry underrated player on your team with McCardell.

His stats speak for himself. I'd play him.

Of course if you do Robinson will have 120 yards and a TD while Keenan will put up 47 yards and no TDs.

Such is the way with FF. lol

[DUKE]

In regards to Mcardell, I wonder if Joe Jurevicius takes his value down just a bit, now that he's healthy.

K-Rob hasn't been a good start against piss poor defenses all year, why should Detroit be any different?
