Bush back to #1 back for Raiders

[1 Crazy Commish]

Oakland Raiders' head coach Tom Cable announced that Michael Bush would get the nod as the team's starting tailback against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. Bush topped the century mark last weekend, which pretty much nobody in the fantasy football world forecasted (a stray touchdown, perhaps...but Bush is not known for piling up the yards, even against matador defensive fronts like the Chiefs). And while Bush may be the starter this Sunday against Cincinnati, it's nearly impossible to predict which Raider back will prosper...if any. Cincinnati's defense is number two in the league against the run, and Oakland will probably use Bush, Darren McFadden, and Justin Fargas in various situations throughout the game. Tough to consider any of the three as more than a flex play this weekend.

I've been waiting on this guy. Prolly not this week though

Thanks to the Turner going down Bush is my primary back in a league this weekend. Thankfully a glut of WRs and a good QB/TE combo will atone for this looming disaster.

Not sure how much room he will find against the Cincy front 7. Good news long term for Bush owners though.

He should have been the starter all year but I don't expect much from him.

You can't trust the Oakland committee. They may name Bush the starter and give more carries to someone else.

Its about like being #1 at the retard convention. Sure, your the #1 guy, but in the grand scheme of things is it REALLY something to be proud of?
