Going from hot to cold

Hey remember how I was complaining about the humidity of south Florida a few days ago? Yeah well Mother Nature has had her way with me – I stepped off the plane last night in Colorado to a light dusting of snow and temps in the upper 30s. I mean, what just happened? Gotta love it. Except when you’re oh say a Randy Moss owner and you’re watching Moss go from red hot and humid last season to cold and snowy this year. I don’t think the numbers he put up last night are indicative of the rest of the season, but the Moss of 2007 has officially left the building.

As you read this I am hard at work compiling the Week 6 edition of the Huddle’s Rest of the Season Player Rankings. However, I’m running into a problem: for some reason nobody wants to claim the prestigious No. 1-ranked running back spot.

A couple weeks back, on the heels of a monster performance (and lingering injuries to LaDainian Tomlinson and Adrian Peterson), I elevated Marion Barber to the top spot. How did he respond? With eight freaking carries. Meanwhile, LT shows signs of life so he gets bumped back to No. 1. What does he do? Lays an egg in Miami.
