Johnson just looked a little more natural to me. <br /><br />That's the subjective opinion of someone who doesn't own either of them.EdMcGonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05892046331126818396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3775717737795541691.post-20702625084438358292009-11-04T01:33:55.264-05:002009-11-04T01:33:55.264-05:001. You're Wrong. When I updated the rankings ...1. You're Wrong. When I updated the rankings Sunday night, Moreno was No. 8 and Rice was No. 6. I have since flip-flopped Rice and Gore, making Rice No. 5. You should look a little closer next time.<br /><br />2. Let's not get a circle jerk together just yet for Mendenhall after he had a great game against an awful run defense (SD), a decent game against a shoddy defense (DET), and a disappointing game against an embarrassingly odious defense (CLE). <br /><br />We're talking about a back Mike Tomlin didn't even trust until Willie Parker got turf toe. <br /><br />Re: Moreno. I've covered the Broncos four times this season, and I don't know what to tell other than that the guy is impressive. His short-area burst is absolutely first-round caliber, he's already one of the most well-rounded backs in the league, and his coaches and teammates love him.<br /><br />One thing to keep in mind with Moreno is that he's been handling all of the tougher, between-the-tackles runs while Buckhalter enjoys the pitches, screens, counters, and passing-game work. That won't always be the case.Chris Wesselinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04514914375873012828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3775717737795541691.post-81625466970046632962009-11-04T00:54:43.793-05:002009-11-04T00:54:43.793-05:001.

Do you base that on his 3.9 YPC or the fact that the longest of his 109 carries this season went for 17 yards?<br /><br />I wasn't in love with Moreno coming out, but I still expected him to be pretty good-----thus far he's been very unimpressive. I mean, can't the guy flash some first-round talent every now and again?<br /><br />Also, you have Mendenhall listed five spots below Moreno...are you capable of keeping a straight face while you tell me you'd rather have Moreno on your team over Mendenhall in a dynasty format (or any format, for that matter)? I find it impossible to believe your answer is yes.<br /><br />Your turn.Twin Killing dot Comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10940435882391046213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3775717737795541691.post-63997139623449870092009-11-03T11:15:18.563-05:002009-11-03T11:15:18.563-05:00A.
