He is only going to miss like 3-4 games (bye week included). Keep him on your bench and just be patient.

I rather him miss the early games than the later games when most of us will be in the fantasy playoffs.. Who knows, in the second half, he can put up LJ-like #s (from last year)

Thats true but I need Alexander to even make the playoff.

Currently have Brandon Jacobs and Kevin Jones as my RB, worth dropping one of those for Morris?

Why the hell would you not drop Jacobs for Morris? Morris is starting, Jacobs did nothign yesterday.

Also, Warner is out and Leinart will start his first NFL game this Sunday. Nothing to do with the madden curse, but big FF news.

I would pick up Leinart if you can, he looked really good in preseason (not saying much at all) and he could go off. That being said, they're playing ATL....

well crap. now when the bears pwn seattle on sunday, there will be a big "what if"

oh well. Bears will be NFC champs now

You really think the loss of alexander will hurt the hawks that much, they manhandled the giants yesterday with alexander playing only half the game and playing relatively poorly at that. Morris isn't as good as Alexander but he's still a pretty good running back, and with the 4 receiver attack to spread the defense Morris should be able to find some lanes. Alexander was probably one of the most overrated players in the NFL (and I'm saying this as a hawks fan) and although he gets most of the attention the hawks are a very good team without him.

LOL, I agree with everything you say until "Alexander was probably one of the most overrated players in the NFL"
Heres a guy that have rushed for over 7500yds and 98 TDs in the last 5 seasons.
Even if the whole line were all-stars, those are insane numbers.

No doubt the Seahawks will be fine without Alexander, Morris & the rest of the offense should be able to pick up the slack... Alexander hasn't played that well this season so far, and the Seahawks are still 3-0...

Without a 100% Alexander, the Seahawks have not looked fine ecept for the NY game.
They barely beat Detroit and Arizona.
And of course just got pumpled by Chicago.

Funny how some of you downplayed the importance of Alexander.
