Fox Sports Question, Will Rudi Get 100

[wookie]

Found this on Fox Sports http://msn.foxsports.com/.

Lower right hand corner of the page a video of Fox Analysts playing More or Less, will a QB throw more than or less than 3 TDs this week etc, and they ask if Rudi will get 100 yds this week vs the Fins. Chris Carter thinks so.

There are a lot of other videos to look through on a variety of sports related issues, its a pretty cool feature. Thought some of you would be interested.

I think Rudi will get his 100+ but I don't look for much in his "TD" column. I think most of his yards will come in Q4 in "run out the clock" mode (nothing wrong with that!). The way the fins injury list is shaping up in the secondary, Carson & Co. may put this one away early.

(Gawds, I hope so...c'mon you ijits blow these hapless mammals outta the water!)

I think he'll get his 100, and that it will be a strong running effort for the Bengals. They'll fare better against the Defensive line than they will against the secondary. They need to establish the run first and foremost.

I'll say 80 yards on 25 carries. I don't think any touchdowns. 100 yards is pushing it--especially when Miami's Defense has something to prove.

Rudi may have his 150 against defenses like Kansas City--but I think Miami is an upgrade from NY's (last week).

I think this week, Rudi's going to have problems again.

Particulary if he splits carries with Kenny Watson and Chris Perry....

I dunno...not to fill in for BengalBax or Barbarian, but aside from that 19 yd TD run last week, Rudi didn't look that impressive to me, but perhaps that had something to do with the O-Line...I'm not quite sure. But that doesn't mean abandon hope on him, which I am definitely not.....I'm just being realistic, Chris Perry has yet to get in a game, and I'm sure the staff (not to mention the fans) are anxious to see what he can do.

Jamal Lewis didn't look that good either.

It happens...

if timbo and surtain are out, rudi gets 130, if they are both in he gets 80.

Rudi will get 100, I'd bet my life on it. Our O line is healthy and we are at home.

Rudi did not look sharp last week and he did not get the blocking he was used to. Some of those running plays did not look properly executed at all, people missing blocks blatantly and bad reads. Levi and Braham at one point early both got schooled bad by the Jets one-on-one. Now Willie's hurting (nothing new with him either).

He rules at home though and had some nice runs last week regardless. He was my #1 pick on my fantasy team this year (#5 over-all) so I have confidence in him. When he's on he carries that team. I just hope the 0-line situation improves somehow and Steinbach gets better in a couple of weeks, or he could have a tough season (but make him more affordable next year if nothing else).

The Rudi/Thomas match-up should be fun, it'd be impressive to see Rudi run over him just once, Thomas is the most underrated player in the league I think.
