November 8, 200718 yr I got blown up in preseason for telling you that Rudi was not a good back. There were many, who said he was not only good, but a GREAT back. Anyone care to stick by that?
November 8, 200718 yr Author For the record, Rudi's last 11 games, he's averaging 2.8 YPC. And that's over 200 carries.
November 8, 200718 yr He was starting to wear on me a little. I was getting tired of him running into tackles and tip toeing around the line but now I want him gone. For some reason Marvin being the genius he is thinks he should have more carries than Kenny last week. Simply amazing.

November 8, 200718 yr Author What about 4 carries for 8 yards the previous game? Or maybe 17 carries for 9 yards the game before that?
November 8, 200718 yr Rudi WAS a good back. I think its time for the Bengals to cut him loose and make space for their salary cap.
November 8, 200718 yr Author Rudi WAS a good back. I think its time for the Bengals to cut him loose and make space for their salary cap. He was a product of a VERY prolific offense(steinbach was a much larger loss than anyone will admit), but for the second part, I will agree. :thumb:
November 8, 200718 yr Rudi isn't any good...He was never anything more than a decent back in a good system.
November 8, 200718 yr I know I'm regretting drafting him. He reminds me of Eddie George, only way softer and more injury-prone. I doubt we'll ever see him be an effective feature back in the NFL again.
November 8, 200718 yr A poll would be interesting. A) Rudi is great B) Rudi was great, but not now C) Rudi was good; flourished in the system D) Other
November 8, 200718 yr He has been a great back for the Bengals and has been a very consistent back. Look back at all your fantasy drafts the past 3-5 years he was always top 10. He has a bad hamstring and the team is not playing well. At least call him out when he's healthy. If you had a broken leg I wouldn't judge you in a 5k Is he on the back half of his career yes. You should know RB's have the shortest lifespan in the NFL. I just don't think its right to call a guy out who has done so much for the team. But I wasn't one of the ones booing Corey either when he left.

November 8, 200718 yr It's just like Rudi replacing Dillon, and now Watson will replace Rudi. It's not that hard to be good when Carson Palmer is the QB, and you can run and/or catch the football and play running back.
