Default Who we starting at RB???

Henry, Hall, or Selvin? Anyone hear anything on this? Whoever it is, should have a field day against the fade.

You should include Bell and Sapp at this point. Henry - knee/NFL death sentence. Young - Knee and Hall - High Ankle sprain.

Bell will probably get another chance to prove he belongs on this team. Hold on to the ball, Mike!

I predict I will get a call from mike stating all I have to do is get them 3.5ypc and we can win. If for some reason I cant go, most likely sapp will get the call.

I believe Travis is going to start.

His knee seems to be ok, Young will back him up.

They should have a lottery and one lucky fan can be running back for the Broncos every week, after which that fan is traded to another franchise for players and/or picks.

He had over 600 yards last season and 10 TD, as #2 guy. I don't understand the hatred on this board for the kid. The kid can play RB in the league.

Nov 27 Henry (knee) said that he "definitely" expects to play on Sunday against Oakland if his suspension hasn't been decided on, the Denver Post reports.

Recommendation: Henry is still waiting to hear from the NFL regarding his suspension, which he appealed on Nov. 16, and if he doesn't hear anything by Tuesday he should still be on the Broncos' active roster. His knee injury is another story, but he seems optimistic about his chances to play this Sunday. They said it would be about a four-week injury and we're on week four," said Henry. "I've got to get back on the field. I will definitely be ready this week." This would be good news for Denver who has already lost Selvin Young and Andre Hall to injuries, but despite these strong words from Henry we recommend erring on the cautious side with him this week and check back later in the week for more information.

The only reason Bell's still here is because there's no other fit backs.

Boy, I respect the good guys at DP, but indications I've seen point to Selvin Young getting the starting nod Sunday, and that's if Young is able to go (indications are that he is much better).

Henry has some serious knee, ankle and rib issues...and I mean serious. If he starts Sunday, I would be very, very surprised...but not shocked.

When you pay the guy the stupid money Denver shelled out, hell, run him 'til the wheels fall off I guess.

He just doesn't look ready to go shopping at the mall, much less hammer out a hundred yards at Oakland.

No, I think he has been on the roster since week 6, but the streak ended after the Steelers game I think.

Would really like to see him run through some faiders this weekend

I haven't heard anything. They probably screwed up and realize they're wrong. Or, perhaps they just forgot!

i really like mike bell, and i was impressed with his performance last year.

this year though, he's not done well. 6 attempts for 3 yards? with a fumble..

i know he hasn't got many opportunities, but you got to do something with the chances you get. young, hall and even sapp have completely outplayed him...and questioning why he is taking a roster spot is a legit question.

So if Henry plays, what's the over/under on how many runs he'll have before he hobbles off the field?

I say give Sapp a shot. Maybe he has the push we need when we're 3 yards away from a TD.

Most likely, Henry starts, and Selvin backs him. Bell stays on special teams and hits people.

sit henry another week. we don't lose much with selvin young and henry's only useful if he's 100%. Bell should've been cut out of TC but somehow takes up a spot.
