</TD></TR><TR><TD class=vaLink>Sammy Morris (knee) hasn't been ruled out, but it doesn't sound like anyone is counting on him playing. Belichick said someone would be ready as an "emergency" behind Laurence Maroney, Kevin Faulk and BenJarvus Green-Ellis. Maroney should be rostered in all leagues going into a tasty matchup with the Bucs.

I just picked up Maroney and may start him this week.

Yes, my running back depth is horrible.

Ouch...Maroney and company are so damn inconsistent. I wish Bill could make it easy like he does for QB @)

Expect Morris to sit out against the Bucs while Laurence Maroney takes over the feature back role with Kevin Faulk working in on passing downs. BenJarvus Green-Ellis could work into the short-yardage mix as well.
