Asiata ran for 78 yards on 20 carries and scored three touchdowns in Sunday's 41-28 win over Atlanta. He also caught three passes on four targets for 22 yards.
While Asiata had a great game for his owners, rookie Jerick McKinnon busted out in a big way, rushing for 135 yards on 18 carries. McKinnon is quite explosive, so it was only a matter of time before he was more involved, but Asiata has proven to be a good goal line runner in his short career.
what makes you not confident?! did you see how easily the bears ran the ball against the packers last week? and did you see how good the vikings rushing attack was last week? The only thing id be worried about is the packers getting a huge lead resulting in the vikings not handing the ball off. But asiata can still get catches
Me too Swagster. Played against Larry Donnell, Randall Cobb, and the Eagles D this week. All of them dropped close to 30 on me. Terrible luck wasted Asiata's monster game.
WAS IT LUCK LAST YEAR WHEN HE RAN FOR 3 TD? oops caps was on lol or the 2 this year in one game? dude is legit.. looks like minn will rely on a combo back / 1,2 punch at RB since patterson cant throw to himself,hes a beast goal line
i know what it means, it just shows your ignorance as a football fan ... patterson has had one good game where he broke a massive run
last season the majority of his explosiveness again came either running the ball or on special teams
bridgewater looked awesome last week and was hitting the open man, they won in a blowout why would he force the ball in to patterson who is being smothered?
they play to win the game not force the ball in to a 2nd year boom or bust fantasy wr
Steve smith, Asiatas, major points this week for me stilk lost marshall crabtree and foster along with atlantas D screwed me :/ if i put the 49ers d in and my other hb on the bench instead of foster i could have won so close
I traded for asiata, i was totally wrong about donald brown so i cut em n picked up lorenzo laliaferro so im starting asiata and taliaferro, even though forsett is the main back taliaferro will still get alot of carries plus the colts run defense is horrible so both backs should give me some good numbers

Should I start Asiata with 100% confidence week 5? Not so sure......
pabballeWed 10/1/14 12:09 PM
I'm going to roll the dice on him.. probably won't pay off though. Clay matthews is supposed to play
SpringwaterWed 10/1/14 12:15 PM
Yeah that's why I'm wondering.....dang.

We'll see.
I've been "sure" before!!
FantasyEngineerWed 10/1/14 3:35 PM
Not only am I starting Asiata, but strongly considering McKinnon at flex.
djax11Wed 10/1/14 6:41 AM
Who should I start asiata or bush
SharkWed 10/1/14 8:27 AM
If your league is TD heavy, definitely Asiata...
BigBoyPapiTue 9/30/14 12:14 PM
Who should I use as a flex? Asiata, Brown, Garcon or crabtree. Pick 2
TomBrazyTue 9/30/14 4:00 PM
Asiata and Garçon.
D-rock1Wed 10/1/14 9:26 AM
Donald Brown sucks
SpringwaterWed 10/1/14 11:04 AM
Yeah, I agree about Donald Brown, I just dropped him.
SireliusWed 10/1/14 12:21 PM
I'd do Asiata and Crabtree. Garcon faces Seattle... although that is a monday night game in DC. Roll of the dice either way.
mattmundleWed 10/1/14 1:49 PM
definitely antonio brown dumbass...........
