Thanks for the update! I was able to pick up Watson and I will probably start him in my FFB championship game. (I am desperate at RB)

Mark,

With Rudi out and this being fantasy football super bowl week, we are watching your blog closely on if we should play either Kenny Watson or DeDe Dorsey as a good sleeper Fantasy play. Please keep us posted in your blog on Marvin's plans on who will start and how he plans to split carries. You have the best and most current information we have seen!

Is Rudi actually injured or this just a way of letting him save face. It is fairly obvious he will be cut after the season, why not get a better look at Watson.

I knew Rudi was on the downward spiral when he bragged on national television about his cars custom mink carpeting before the Season Opener. In my opinion Rudi may still have the base talent but has become way too full of himself.

If you can use Watson then use him. He will likely get more carries than Dorsey and will also catch passes.

If you have either Rudi or Kenny on your fantasy team, I really feel sorry for you. Anyone on the Bengals roster, other than TJ or Chad, should have been dropped long ago or never even picked.

The Bengals SUCK!

Could you let us know as soon as possible who Marv gives the starting nod to, Watson or DeDe? I have a gut feeling he's going to go with DeDe and if he does I want to pick him up in my FF league and watch him rack up the yards against the Brownies. I know this question had already been asked but the suspense is driving me nuts and we're all anxiously waiting. Thanks
