I thought about that Rawls for Lacy trade btw Rol, and I didnt reject it just to spite you lol. Just that Rawls really seems like he'll be sharing the RB duties with a much improved Michaels this year where as Lacy is the Packers' lone go to guy.

The Packers have Starks who might not get the workhorse role, but commonly gets an increased number of snaps when Lacy's running style doesn't quite work in a game. Basically, if Lacy struggles, his chances to see a surge in the second half are greatly limited due to less time on the field.

Anyway, looks like I'll have to settle with Rawls against L.A. while you'll have Lacy against Minnesota. Since Michaels didn't impress in week 1, Rawls could actually get more snaps now, rather than less than half of them. Knowing my luck, the Rams are going to play like a football team in week 2. Well, at least their defense (which will impact my fantasy team). I have no hope for that offense.

Didn't get to watch any of the games as I just got back from vacation, but looking at the stats I'd say Michaels was fairly impressive, even with his longest run of 17 yards called back he averaged around 4.5 yards per carry. That's quite respectable
