Alfred Morris rushed 17 times for 93 yards and a touchdown in Washington's Week 8 loss to the Broncos.
Morris was running all over the Broncos early, but bafflingly got the ball just five times after his early third-quarter score put the Redskins up 14-7 with 11:37 remaining in the third period. Morris did fumble in the fourth, but Washington recovered. Either way, Morris out-touched Roy Helu 17-6, and upped his season yards per carry to 5.23. He remains a borderline RB1 in Washington's hot-and-cold offense.
Washington needed to keep this man (Morris) in the game in order to have had a better chance to win. What are the coaches thinking?? They were up 21 to 7 and left Helu in the game to keep passing. Keep trying to make RG3 look good while you lose coach!!
Well we are bias because we want Morris points but: Shanahan is the only guy that held Peyton's scoring down when he used Morris. When he stopped using Morris they turned the ball over and Manning shoved it down Shanahan's throat. I am not sure why the O coordinator throws away the talent of Alfred Morris. Taking Morris out of the equation one series is one thing, but 3 or 4, I don't get.

This guy would be an absolute monster if Washington utilized him correctly.

I like Morris and his fantasy points. He is a beast. RG3 is struggling and bringing that offense down. Anyone that can't see that is blind as a bat.
