I’m pretty uninspired by Lamar Miller, but w/ Moreno gone, he does seem to have at least a decent handle on most of the work in Miami. What are your thoughts on him for the rest of the season?
Top 15 RB at least the rest of the season, as long as he stays healthy. Miami’s running the ball well no matter who carries is, and Miller’s got the gig to himself.
Drew Brees generally does poorly on the road and has the Detroit defense to contend with this week. I also have Tony Romo at home against the Giants. I’m tempted to go with Romo even though they run alot. You’re opinion?
I don’t mind that play. Brees has more upside based on volume, but arguably more downside than Romo. I’d still start Brees, but if you’re not comfortable with it, Romo is an ok replacement.
