For those of you thinking Knowshon Moreno will see most of the carries for the Denver Broncos while Willis McGahee picks up some scrapes and the goal-line touches, you might want to reassess. According to offensive coordinator Mike McCoy, both are expected to see quite a bit of work during Monday night's game versus the Oakland Raiders.
"We're going to roll them," McCoy said Thursday. "Both of them are going to play plenty of snaps, but we're not going to worry about counting snaps with them. If someone is in there playing and they're on a roll, then they're going to stay in. When they need to come out, then they're going to come out. Not necessarily 'who's hot', but at the time in certain situations you're going to have certain plays for everybody. That's the game ... it doesn't mean that we're going to put Willis in for a play and then take him out and put Knowshon in for a play. We're just going to let them roll."

Fantasy Analysis:

So, McCoy said that if one back is playing well, he will remain in the game. But it's not a "hot hand" or "who's hot" situation? Isn't that the definition of a "hot hand" situation? Either way, this sounds like we could have a timeshare on our hands. Good thing is the Raiders are a tasty matchup for most any running back. I think Moreno is the better play in PPR leagues. But after hearing this, I would rather start McGahee as a flex in 12-team standard leagues because of his touchdown potential.
