Staley vs. CLE
M. Anderson vs. OAK
C. Portis vs. TB
which 2 ?
Mike Anderson is a must-start every week IMO. The 100/2 games from Tatum Bell is making people overlook how productive this guy has been in recent weeks. Look at Anderson's average points per game if you exclude weeks 1 and 2 when he was injured. Ignore Tatum Bell, his carry totals, etc. Just look at the numbers:
Wk3- 15.8
Wk4- 14.2
Wk5- 5.0
Wk6- 11.7
Wk7- 18.0
Wk8- 20.2
14.15 points per game...
4 games above average, 2 games below average
14.15 points per game generally ranks you right around the #10 RB in fantasy scoring.

Portis is right there also as an every week start, but Staley has a money matchup vs. Cleveland. Charlie Batch factor says go with Portis, but I would go with whatever my gut says on that one. Do not bench Mike Anderson though. Even if he has a subpar game one week, he is likely to put up 80/1 or more the following week.
