Is this finally the week for Helu

[jjtweeks]

This is it folks. I am making my bold prediction for shanahan to start helu and for him to have a good game with a TD against a tough Seattle run D.
i have to believe in it because I really need this win this weekend.
:violin:

Ok who am i kidding Shanahan is not smart enough to start helu but i stand by the rest
76/47/1TD

I'd love to think Shanny had received a vision over night because with AP out I could really use Helu getting the touches he's earned.

 

[jjtweeks]

Well mud I hope i am right about my prediction for ya but i pulled him out at the last minute and put beanie in. I just can't give in to the shananagans

 

[mudloggerone]

Good for you since Beanie is running well today. I'm rolling with Helu since Benson is having a good game as expected for me.

 

[jjtweeks]

go Mud, go Helu :biggrin:

 

[mudloggerone]

So far, so good. He'll have to keep the jets turned on to outscore the Law Firm who I set in his place.

 

[jjtweeks]

Wow surprise surprise huh. I never saw that coming today(Law Firm)

 

[mudloggerone]

I only played him once this year during AP's bye week and he didn't do much. He may get to play if AP is out for an extended period.

 

[jjtweeks]

Watch shanahan start someone else at RB next week. This winning stuff is just not for him.
helu exceeded my prediction this week, good for him

 

[mudloggerone]

He'll be out of a job, at the very least, if he doesn't start Helu next game.

Mike Shanahan on Roy Helu: "He's our starter, for sure."

Yeah, I'm rolling with him this week (had him on the bench last). Why do I think another RB ends up finishing the game with about 10 more touches than Helu? The guy has talent, he can catch and run....PLAY THE MAN!

On that note, do you guys think there is a possibility that Shanny is out of Washington next year? They need to get rid of that guy.

 

[mudloggerone]

I think that if he hasn't got enough sense to continue starting Helu he might well be gone after this season.

 

[jjtweeks]

From my viewpoint he would have been gone mid season. His strategy of waiting till the last minute to declare starters hurt his team. keeping Grossman was another stupid move. He will never and i mean never take any team to the playoffs again. lack of consistency and stupid moves like picking up choice only to drop him a week later sends mixed messages to the team. i am only assuming but i would imagine that playing for him is not enjoyable.
I hope he's gone for the redskins sake.

Another one of those posts that I wish I could click "like" twice on. Spot on JJ.

When it comes to ratface and running backs, you are better off at the blackjack table....

I'm starting him this week against the Jets...it was either him or Shonn Greene. Not going to start both.

this would make me bench him for sure . . . can't trust the man.
