Arrival of Hyde (similar skillset) could have Pete trying to preserve Carson so stays healthy later into the season, hence the snap count. With Penny on PUP, they don't really have a 3rd down pass-catching back. The bright side is it seems like Pete is trusting Carson with that role this season vs Homer, which bodes well for his fantasy value in the case that his carries get reduced. I'm not overreacting after this first game simply because of game script--pull away with lead in the second half & Russ seemed to just be on the zone with his passing Pete Carroll still loves his run heavy offense, don't think that will change Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to sound like a hater because I don't hate Carson and I just did not like what I saw today. As for the receptions, I think that is more game plan than anything. You remember how every RB last year got receptions vs falcons? Thats how they play defense. I wouldn't expect it going forward Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, he didn't even sign his extension until 5 days ago, so the Browns RB situation was uncertain regarding role during the time most ppl drafted. That's why Chubb was still regarded as a bell cow. Also, Chubb had a BETTER year in 2019 than in 2018 before Hunt even arrived in CLE Hyde has only had 1 out of 6 seasons with more the 200 fpts. He's 30, and we know what he is. He's on a one year deal, isn't a factor in the passing game, and everything he does Carson does a little bit better 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cheezor42 534 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Again, there is absolutely no way on the lords green earth he plays the full season. He runs like he wants to get hurt/hurt others in the process. It’s great for fantasy when he plays but it’s why I never draft him. Hyde is a fantastic cuff he looked good.

RoseLin23 436 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Don't get me wrong, I love what Carson did yesterday but the usage is a concern. Having said that, it's only week 1 with no preseason and Carson is coming off injury. I can see his usage slowly increasing through the year. Not to mention, this game was a no contest so no reason to push Carson. But again having said all that, his durability does concern me. I keep going back to whether I should have picked Conner instead, but he too has had injury issues. In the 3rd round, that's usually what you're going up against with any RB. There's going to be some question marks no doubt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
owenmills 5,326 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 This is one of those games where you take the points, but don't feel great about it. Nothing to worry about unless the carry split keeps happening. I have Hyde stashed and think he would fill in well if CC went down but I have a hard time believing he brings as much to the table and will steal a lot of carries Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Everynameistaken 86 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Dude its week 1. Carson did his job. The game wasn't even close as the final score would suggest. They didn't need carson much for this game. This was carson and the hawks preseason game.. He'll be fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paulwall29 847 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) Lol at the action in this thread. It's week 1, Carson is coming off of an injury and there were no preseason games. In a game that they won handedly why would they wear him out in the first week of the season? There is no doubt that Carson is and will be the clear cut lead back in this backfield moving forward. If you think this game will reflect his season long usage you are doing fantasy wrong. Edited September 14, 2020 by paulwall29 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gohawks 9,954 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Carson missed the end of last season and a pretty big chunk of the offseason. There were reports initially that he might not even be ready to go week 1. Homer isn't good. At all. Once up to speed I would look at like a 65%, 30%, 5% split between the 3 (Carson, Hyde, Homer). 65% is more than enough snaps to be an RB1 especially with how damn good the offense looked with the change in playcalling.

dudewithabadcat 1,078 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I don't know what Carson scored you in your league....buuuut....I see 25 points from him. I don't know guys. Seems like we are barking up the wrong tree when it comes to questioning Carson. Studded out last season before he broke himself. Seems like he is studding out again yet we are cherry picking lame a** stats....we might as well start discussing covid cases......cause that is some dumbass metrics to follow. Frankly, I am looking at this stat line and scratching my head wondering where in the world he started to become a receiving threat. If that trend continues, haaaa....this dude is more studly than previously thought. I think some folks are just hating to hate. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just re-watched his TD's and the previous poster was correct- Carson was the first read on the 1 yard pass and the long TD was a designed screen... I'd gladly take 50 less carson carries for 20-30 more receptions. That might keep him fresher? Am I the only one excited that this may be a boost for his value if they a new offense? Seattle was the most pass-heavy in neutral situation yesterday...it's staggering how different the offense is. Top-3 potential. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Word been a Carson fan since '18, he got that old school I'ma run u over mentality. All the NFC west teams were above average already though on defense, gonna be interesting to see who makes it out this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Last week's pass heavy look from SEA doesn't worry me, if anything I can see it helping Carson by keeping defenses a little more honest. Expecting another solid state line from Carson this week. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OmegaRed88 644 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 (edited) There will be games like last week where they can lighten his usage for longevity. Vs the Pats I think they want the power run game thumping all night. Edited September 19, 2020 by OmegaRed88 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
