Jones and McFadden. NE's defense isn't what it used to be (it's not bad, but not great either). Jones had a very good game last week at Houston with 107 yards and 2TD's on 20 carries. I don't know if I'd predict 2TD's this week, but 1 is certainly not far fetched and he could easily get 100 yards again. McFadden DESTROYED KC last year in week 2 with 164 yards and a TD. Last year he was the #2 RB behind Fargas, this year he's the #1 RB in Oakland.
Fred Jackson's rushing stats were nondescript last week, but he had a very nice receiving game. Hard to bench him either but I still go Jones and McFadden here.
