seh2000 5 Posted December 3, 2016 Only 11 carries last week and 67 yards. With Gronk out, thoughts on Blount for week 13 and the rest of the way? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quickolas1 80 Posted December 3, 2016 He's actually one of the easier players to project. When the Patriots win by 6 or more, he averages 80 yards and almost a full touchdown. Essentially 14 points in standard (and PPR too). That's the last 2 years including Dion Lewis' magical run in 2015. Gronk/other players have been irrelevant. Pats only won by 5 last week at NYJ. So look at the game/point spread and evaluate that 14 expected points versus your other option(s). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimaveli 119 Posted December 4, 2016 I agree with the above. Blount is a frontrunner. IT IS DANGEROUS to predict the gameflow of Pats games later in the year. This is super true this year since they are increasingly and mysteriously hurting at multiple spots in their offense (including Brady), but the Rams tend to be reliable to show horribly vs good coaches on the road.

Fireballer 2,597 Posted December 5, 2016 I think im gonna bench him vs Balt. Its gonna be one of those 12for36 yd games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plasma george 62 Posted December 5, 2016 He's frustrating as helle, and I have a feeling he will burn me in the playoffs. He's been a nice sidekick next to Bell, but I'd much rather have a more reliable RB heading into the playoffs, but Corwell never worked out, and I lost CJ Anderson. He's not a 3 down back, and he'll be on the sidelines if the Patriots are losing. So far this hasn't happened, but it will be Lewis and White on the Field while Blount on his knee watching....I just a feeling my luck will run out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viking14 5 Posted December 5, 2016 I started him yesterday and the one run for a TD accounted for all but about 4 points. That is fantasy - I have no idea who I will start next week??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viking14 5 Posted December 13, 2016 They need the lead into the third quarter then they try to wear down the defense with him and into the 4th qtr they run Blount and the clock.. I think he is tied for the lead in RB touchdowns. Bell and Johnson in front of him, but the rest he competes with well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
