Denver RB: Moreno goes down, Hillman fumbled everything and is stuck on the bench.

Who runs away with it: Montee Ball or CJ Anderson? This is the team that drafted a RB, but instead went with someone that just played better than him so why wouldn't CJ play better than him also? Theoretical question of course.

I'm betting on Ball, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a bit of a committee approach.

That's what I'm thinking. Now I hope I can get CJ off the waivers and nobody else in my league has NumberFire lol dropping Gerhart, whom I picked up the minute I heard AP and hamstring.

Ball was supposed to be the future back, but he can't block as well as Knowshon, that's why Moreno has kept the job so far, he's not fast, he has a history of injuries etc. I would see Ball slip into the feature back in this case, but he's a rook, and Payton is going to eat allot more dirt because of that. I don't know anything about CJ or seen any of his tape to get a good opinion on him. But if CJ can block well then gg Ball, even though Ball has more raw talent.

Ball's your man, if Knowshon goes down. .. interesting question, brings into light the
fact that Knowshon might be getting overworked... he's had a couple of surgeries
i believe to his knees last year? Coaches just trust Knowshon more with the rock, than
the rookie, who fumbled earlier this year. CJ's described, like a bowling ball" type
probably similair to Mike Tolbert of the Panthers, so i could see a time-share, with the edge to Ball
