Why Isn't Correll Buckhalter Starting?

As much as it pains me to say this, because every year there seems to be at least one rookie RB that ends up in the top 12 in fantasy every year and this year I picked it to be Knowshon Moreno, but Buckhalter should be starting over Moreno. Rather, if I were a Denver Broncos fan, I would rather McDaniels start, and give more carries to, Buckhalter.

This year, Buckhalter is averging 6.0 YPC and has fumbled twice and lost it once. Take this versus Moreno who has a 3.9 YPC and has fumbled three times (within the past four games) and has lost all three of them. I believe Moreno seems to be getting the goal line carries and has 44 more carries than Buckhlater, yet Moreno only has 1 more rushing TD than Buckhalter. In fact, Moreno only has 52 more yards than Buckhalter with his 44 more carries.

It's hard to judge these guys using football sabermetrics because of the lack of carries Buckhalter has gotten, but Moreno ranks about 26th out of 39 RBs with significant carries with negative DVOA and DYAR (which essentially means he's really inefficient) versues Bukhalter that ranks 3rd amoung RBs with limited carries with positive DVOA and DYAR.

So as a fantasy owner of Moreno, I'm happy seems to be getting carries, but I think Josh McDaniel is being dumb here. It's like Joe Torre batting Matt Kemp 7th.
