Please explain to me why Coach Fox would remove a guy in goal-line situations who scored 20 TD's last season.

We all know he won't get 20 again, but don't be surprised at 12-15.

I'm surprised that no one put Marion Barber in their top 4 and that many fantasy experts this year have him ranked so low in their pre-season rankings. Is it because of Felix, the loss of T.O., Barber's style of running, injury issues or a combo??

Thank you... of course I meant Fox, but my point stays the same.

The reasons I think Williams gets less goal-line carries is that Stewart is the bigger back of the two of themm -- he should get more carries in the red zone. Plus, you don't pick a guy (Stewart) 13th overall to be a second fiddle. Maybe they'll split evenly, but I'm sure that over the long haul, Stewart is the better goal-line back in the NFL.

I think Williams has just had his career best NFL season, and his stats will only slide.
I have the doomsday device!
