Christopher Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 What do you guys think the chances of Snelling having a monster fantasy game with Turner out however many games he will miss? Considering you can pick up the Falcons starting back up in almost any league now it sure sounds good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 However, it is getting late in the season and a lot of games are must wins in hopes of tying up a play-off spot. Do you want to trust your season to Snelling at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFanSince1970 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I don't know much about Fantasy Football but I know a lot about Jason Snelling and NFL Football.As Goose said in the CAR telecast, "That's a complete back Moose". That's the best way to describe him. He gets at least a B grade in every aspect of what you want a RB to do.I agree with what TD said on the radio a couple days ago, Snelling has a lot of assets but his best is his vision. He can see what's going on, let it set up and get where you're suppose to go as good as any Falcon RB I've seen since William Andrews.In fact he has a similar skill set as #31, who may have been the most "complete" back ever on the Planet Earth:-Great vision-Patience to let blocks develop-Runs hard (TD says he has tremendous leg drive)-Best pass blocking RB on the team-Can catch the ball out of the backfield-Can block for another back either at the FB or RB positionThe biggest difference in Snelling and #31 to me is Snelling a special teams beast and William could break tackles better.I would expect him to be able to get 80 yards rushing, catch five balls for 40 yards and provide better pass protection for Ryan.

Christopher Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 If anyone is watching the Ga. game. T. King is developing into a good receiver in A.J.'s absence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the thought of having our starting running back even if it is only for a week is enticing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main concern is our staff trusting the run and not just assuming that we need to pass more because Turner is out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
