    He better hold onto the starting job because I need him for fantasy B-A-D-L-Y...

    As long as the second back isn't completely fazed out (be it Tatum or Mike), I'll be fine with whoever starts.

      You were a firm Pryce supporter and you saw where he ended up.


      Mike Bell is the future, Mike is the man and is going to continue being the #1 on the depth chart.

        Portis didn't start that season.

          I dont watch alot of Denver pre-season but from what i saw Cedric Cobbs looked as impressive as anyone else.

            Correct, he would be the first rookie to start the season #1 since TD, right?



            Too soon, D-Will, too soon.

              Started the fourth game of the season if I remember correctly. Then missed the equivalent of three games his second year. I remember thinking how good his numbers were considering he only started/played in 13 games each of his two seasons.

                No I think he was pointing out that Portis was the first to start at RB at the START of the season. Because if we were going by that then we would add Olandis Gary and Mike Anderson.

                  I know, I was agreeing with you, I just probably worded it wrong. I meant, if I remember correctly, he didn't start the season, but started for the first time in the fourth game.

                    This is true, but he hasn't run against the first string defense either. I'm encouraged by what he has shown so far however, I would also like see what he does with the first unit.
