Slaton / Moats Help

[Seanie Mac]

I have both. 2 weeks ago I used 1 as RB2 and the other as flex. My prob is Cadillac has a favorable matchup and I would like to play him. but I don't think I can play one over the other.

Moats is the starter and goal line back

Slaton catches alot of passes and fumbles lost don't cost me

MJD is my RB1




question 2.

Santana Moss or Josh Morgan or Johny Knox as WR3. Morgan named a starter this week.

Slaton. High scoring game on Monday night. He'll see more action than Moats. And I'm not so sure Moats is the goal-line back. He fumbled at the goal-line in week 9 (before their bye).

[Seanie Mac]

Yea I know he cost me a win that week. Moats is still the starter keith lol. Think I'll go slaton he needs a big week

[dhunter]

seriously lmao

moats didnt fumble at the goal line, he caught a pass and ran for 9 yards and got tackled almost out of bounds and fumbled as he was on the colts defender...somehow the ball stayed in bounds. moats got the majority of work and reports are that texans think he's still better

the truth of course is that Moats did do everything that rjb said. Except the "didn't fumble at the goal-line" part. That part is more of his fictions. Moats did catch a pass for 9 yards. The part he leaves out is that, Moats 9 yard play was to the Colts' ONE YARD LINE (apparently that doesn't qualify as goal-line for rjb), where he then fumbled the ball into the end zone for a touchback.

As for Moats getting "the majority of the work", once again that is a true statement. He had 16 carries. For a whopping total of 38 yards. 2.4 yards per carry. Watch out.

The Texans come off their bye this week. They activated another RB (Foster) from their practice squad, so how in love with Moats can they be ? Slaton may not start---but he will still get at least 10 touches per game.

he fumbled at the 1 yard line very close to being out of bounds...it was a fluke play. not like he got a goal line carry and fumbled ala chris brown. completely different scenarios

LOL. I said "he fumbled at the goal line", and you said "Moats didn't fumble at the goal line".

Now it turns out he did fumble at the goal line, but it wasn't from a goal-line carry, so that doesn't count.

i dont consider it fumbled at the goal line because he never even had a chance to score. he started getting tackled at the 2 going out of bounds. whatever floats your boat...i know you really want it to be at the goal line, but it wasnt like you are trying to make it sound.

alright so someone make an executive decision here

for RB2:

Slaton, Moats, Caddy

for Flex

Slaton, Moats, Caddy, Moss, Morgan, Ginn Jr, Knox

I'm pretty much out of it anyway, slaton not getting all the touches because of his fumbling, colston not getting the ball alot, no one giving the ball to Santana Moss. Have the 3rd most points scored and I'm 3-7 3 games back in my division. but I'm trying to at least stay competitive

whose in denial ????


Steve Slaton will start for the Texans against the Titans on Monday night.

We thought that Slaton would have to prove he can hold on to the ball before getting his starting job back, but coach Gary Kubiak is apparently convinced. Slaton's role was due to grow anyway because he's clearly their best back, but this a great sign that he has his coach's confidence. Look for Slaton to still share carries with Chris Brown and Ryan Moats, but we like him as a solid flex play this week.
