I have finally started to lose my mind. I sit Tiki thinking Barlow is due to do something. I vow right now to never start Barlow again! SF may never play with a lead the rest of the year.. hence they may never feel the need to run the ball again! I am having a tragic start to my year, took Duece 1st rd, Barlow 2nd so you can see my frustration. I love this game,I love this game,I love this game,I love this game,I love this game,I love this game....... I hope most of you didn't make the same mistake I did!
Take the A and the R out of Barlow and that's how he did this week.
I usually play Barlow at the flex, so I count any big contribution from him as a bonus, but I wouldn't want to rely on him as a starter, as I had to this week.
He finally may have earned himself a seat on the pine in my lineup, assuming Suggs is the man in Cleveland. He didn't look good last night, plus Terry Jackson is getting a lot of looks, which I am not expecting Barlow to get all of the looks, but, certainly more than he is getting.
I took the same RBs as you, Deuce, then Barlow, then Tiki in the 5th round. We'll be fine once Deuce comes back, but I'm definitely staying with Tiki. We'll just have to suffer with Barlow until then.
I hear ya. I jsut need him to have a decent game and i am going to try and peddle him off. All these guys that were still available and I picked BARLOW. Could have had T Jones, C Brown, Westbrook. I knew that SF would be bad but this bad. Jesus. Their O line is horrible they are always behind. And Barlow isn't a Tomlinson or B Sanders where he can make up for this.
I traded Barlow/R. Smith for Dillon/Lelie. I didn't like giving up Rod because he's been a nice 3rd WR, but I got sick of waiting for Barlow to finally show up. On a better team he might do something, but I don't see the 49ers running much because they're always behind.
