Default RB Doghouse

I'm on the east coast so I don't get to hear all the local news there in Denver. Forgive me if this is common knowledge. What happened to get Tatum Bell out of and Mike Bell into the RB Doghouse?

Sure, Mike didn't run well against the Steelers but who does?
Tatum can barely run at all right now and he's still getting the starts?

Any insights here?

Shanny claimed that Mike Bell left some yards on the field against Pitt. Mike Bell said he had a few bad runs and lost faith in himself and the scheme and deviated from the game plan, which may be why his running wasn't very productive that day.

It seems Tater is working on getting back in though after Shanny's comments about being tricked into thinking Tater was ready last week when he wasn't. We're still waiting to see how things are gonna develop this weekend.

Who knows, right now our running game is a mess. No local news at all on what's going on.

I'm looking for Tatum to get back to his old form this week. We really need him to be effective this week.

Is Tatum Two Toes even going to play?

DEN QUESTIONABLE
TE Stephen Alexander (Thumb)
RB Tatum Bell (Toe)
OLB Patrick Chukwurah (Hamstring)
DE Ebenezer Ekuban (Thigh)
OLB Ian Gold (Hamstring)

PROBABLE
RB Cedric Cobbs (Ankle)
FB Kyle Johnson (Ankle)
MLB Al Wilson (Thumb)

More than likely, I would assume.

Never assume

I think Nash see's 10 carries or so and Mike will start. Tatum at 75% against a very good SD run D is a no go imo.

Default ...this may be premature (draft) speculation....

.....my vote for RB next year is a rook. Cal's Marshawn Lynch. The guy has a motor and reminds me of maroney, seems perfect for little screen dumps that turn into 15 yards.

As for tatum....the guy appears to have no love for the game. He can join Griese in the NFC somewhere.

I was impressed by Hart from Michigan today, he is a little small, but really ran hard. Reminds me a bit of LT. It also helps the michigan actually consulted Denver assistants to help with their zone blocking.

I too though that, and since he is smallerish we wont have to go for him in the first round. (or will we??)

Add Bush to that list, Lynch, Slaton, Irons.....

RB position is more of a concern than the QB. In fact I am really nervous about the rungame. I haven't been this nervous about it since we tried the Droughns experiment and it happened to work.

Actually that not true, they hired Alex Gibbs to come in and help the system. I like Mike Hart but he slower then molasses. I would prefer the LT for Michigan or one of the receivers before hart.
