Definitely. However, I say ride the hot hand. Moats is doing great. But we should see Slaton, I hope, after the half.

He's got the YIPS. I'm hoping he doesn't go Chuck Knoblauch on us.
Sort of surprised Kubiak didn't put him back on the field in the 4th qtr, once we had things in control. Could we possibly have Moats as the "feature" guy and Slaton be the 3rd down "change of pace" back? We have to get his head on straight.

Not to mention, I've got Slaton on my fantasy football team today and Beanie Wells sitting on the bench

Moats looked really dependable today and with this passing attack, dependable is all we needed.
