Chris Brown

By kevin roberts Both Texans running backs are getting a sit call this week, as they're facing an improving Tennessee Titans defense. On top of that, these guys are splitting the ball between each other and Chris Brown, while also playing second fiddle to a pass-heavy offense. Neither is a great start this w...

By Dan Van Wie 3) It is becoming more and more clear that the Bills are giving ample practice reps to Bryan Scott at linebacker, so expect Scott to start there this week with Paul Posluszny and Chris Draft. Bills will probably keep Scott there until Ellison returns.

By Michael McNeil Steve Slaton, Ryan Moats, and Chris Brown, Texans Slaton and Brown became a familiar tandem for fantasy owners earlier this season, but Moats decided to crash the party —hard—with a three-touchdown performance last Sunday. So what happens now in Houston?

By Vik Vij At running back, Steve Slaton has remained dangerous in the passing game but his maddening fumbling could potentially cripple the Texans in the race to the playoffs. Chris Brown has played well in spurts but cannot be counted on in goal line situations.

By Matthew Beck Sammy Morris, RB (NE): Morris didn’t play, after being hyped-up as the Patriots number one option for Week Six. Jason Campbell, QB (WAS): Campbell was benched for the second-half in the Redskins loss last week, after playing horrible in the first-half.

By Michael McNeil One major obstacle limiting Slaton's value to date has been the Texans' persistence in using backup running back Chris Brown at the goal line this season. While he did punch in a score for Houston last weekend against Arizona, he also failed to do so with the game on the line late in the fourth...

By Dino Acho has good speed, and has racked up three sacks on the season to along with three fumble recoveries. Defensive tackle Lamar Houston has proven to be Texas' best run-stuffer, and will be key in slowing down Demarco Murray and Chris Brown. 

By Vik Vij Steve Slaton, at times, has looked tentative in short yardage but we all know he is a vastly superior player than Brown.  Even Ryan Moats has showed more fire than Brown.  Perhaps the time to elevate Arian Foster to see what he can offer the team.  In some way or another, goal line carries cannot...

By Fantasy-Info .com The Texans went to Ryan Moats instead of Slaton's traditional backup Chris Brown. Not only did they go to Moats, but Brown didn't even play in the game. Brandon Marshall Puts the Game Away NFL Fantasy Football Information writer Sean E. Douglas: fantasy-info.com

By Vik Vij For fumbling away a chance to tie Jacksonville, Chris Brown gets an F. His 3.1 yards per carry is actually worse than Slaton. Considering he was brought in to get the tough yards, 3.1 is simply not getting it done. Ryan Moats leads the team with 3.7 yards per carry. Giving Moats a B seems fair.

By FantasyDC Chris Brown is getting a bit more than expected at 30 percent. Overall, Slaton is getting significantly more looks, thanks to him also seeing 13 percent of the targets, compared to just three percent for Brown. Andre Johnson has been targeted a team high 28 percent of the time.

By Allen Kenney Meanwhile, Miami has had problems stopping the run in its first three games, giving up 3.85 yards per attempt, 66th in the country. Last week, Virginia Tech averaged a shade under five yards per carry on a staggering 55 attempts. The Hokies threw just nine passes en route to a 31-7 win.
