Felix Jones or Gore?

Postby BearsFan65 » Fri Sep 25, 2009 4:50 pm

8 team league, 0.5 PPR, all other scoring standard. Play 2 RB, 2WR, 1 W/R flex. My roster:

RB - ADP, Gore, MBIII, Felix Jones, Fred Jackson, Rice
WR - Megatron, V Jackson, TO, A Bryant, Driver

ADP and Calvin are must starts, obviously. Need 1 RB, 1 WR, 1 Flex. I lean toward V Jax, F Jax, and.....can't believe I'm saying this.....Felix? My thought is that Gore has a bad ankle, and a great run D to deal with. Felix has a bigger workload and a so far horrible Carolina run D going for him. Won't Minn just put 8 (or 9) in the box and dare Shaun Hill to beat them? Or am I overthinking this - in which case it's V Jax, Gore, and F Jax in the flex.

WHIR, thanks!

I would still play Gore over Felix. I see a major time split on Monday night. I think Barber will play. But, I think Jones will get more carries. I just wouldn't risk it.

Your lineup is very strong, and I would go with the safer play, that is Gore. Plus, you can't bench the leading RB in FF, right??

You are overthinking it. :)
