Grant and McFadden seem like the best plays out of the bunch.

I'd still start Grant. I think he can do damage against Cincy.

A for the 2nd option...looks like we are in the same boat here! I think I'd lean towards DMC simply because PIT is so tough against the run. Add to that DMC's matchup against KC and I think you gotta go with McFadden.

Good luck, and please see mine:

Forte MAYBE... but not Grant. Palmer will spread GB out and the holes will open for a very skilled and rejuevenated GRANT. ... and that's why I'm playing him.

Grant 100% and Dmac second I would say. Forte is going to have a rough day against Pitt, and Cutler is going to have to pass to move the ball I would say. Pitt basically comes into games saying, okay you are not running, now beat us throwing the ball. And not many can do it.

I would have a hard time sitting Forte, he had 25 carries last week (but only gained 55 yards). McFadden has a great match up. I have him in one league and it was tough to see Bush getting touches and a TD, but there should be enough to go around this week. I would lean very slightly towards McFadden.

Take a look at mine:

Forte is really tough to sit, but I think given your other options, you have to. Rice is the man in Baltimore, even though Willis got both TDs last week. He'll put up solid numbers even if he doesn't find the end zone again this week, especially in PPR. Forte had no receptions in week 1, and it doesn't get any easier this week. Other than that, it's close between Grant and DMC, but I'd go with Grant at home against Cincinnati. I'm not going to automatically give them credit for being a great defense just because Kyle Orton couldn't figure them out. I'll take Grant's chances of scoring at home in a game I can almost guarantee Green Bay will win.

wasnt it San Diego that let DMC look good last week ??
I'd take Rice over DMC with that same matchup!!

Kansas City is horrible and should make DMC look good again.

Forte is all Chicago has

Pack should move the ball with ease against Cincy , pass first , but will get to the goaline for Grant carries.

Tough , Tough call with some great options

I say Rice, and DMC
soccer is dull as dishwater and just because it stops camel traffic in Saudi Arabia doesn't mean we have to fall in line
