Hightower vs Rice??? WHIR!!

Postby nflboy07 » Sat Sep 26, 2009 2:39 pm

Hey Guys,

My line up this year:
QB P Manning
RB MJD, R Rice, T Hightower, Moreno, L Washington, D Brown
WR Colston, Ochocinco, D Driver, S Smith (NYG) A Gonzalez (out)
TE Hard Hittin Witten
D Steelers
K Carney

I am having some issues this week deciding who to throw in. Willis seems to be cutting into Rices production so I was debating playing Hightower against a porous INDy D as he gets the bulk in Arizona. Rice likely will get his carries against a brutal CLE too but do people think Willis is gonna take more each week????? So just need to know some opinions about HIGHTOWER vs RICE here.

Also Smith has been on fire in New York and they play a TB team that gave up a couple passing TDs to Buff last week and Barber can't cover Manningham and Smith..(lol)....Should I sit Chad against PITT D even though they seem to give up a few passes yards these days?? Need to pick three WR to start and right now Colston is a no brainer and Driver plays a ST Louis team that is brutal so I think I need to decide between Chad and S Steve so some advice their would be appreciated.....

Let me see your question too and I will reply as I like analyzing situations but some days i think I just think too deep into it..lol

My receiving crew is almost identical to yours with Ocho, Colston, and the young Steve Smith and I'm sitting Chad over Smith for the same reason.

I'm also playing Rice, but there's a good chance McGahee will snipe. I like Hightower especially with better TD potench than Rice.

Rice seems to get the bulk of the Yards where Willis gets the TD's, Hightower seems to get the bulk of everything in ARI, so I'd go with him.

I'd also go with Smith this week. Pitt is going to have something to prove this week after loosing last week. and a lot of "experts" are picking Cin to win the game. I think you are going to see a much improved Pitt D this week

look at mine

I'd go with Hightower over Rice too, as well as Steve Smith. Eli always finds him and he is playing pretty good right now.

Thanks for the help..I was kinda hoping Rice would of been a no brainer battling Clevland but with Willis cutting in to the pie big time as of late and Hightowers performances not letting Beanie get too close to him on the depth chartit is quite the toss up. I think I am leaning towards Highty for now and we will see what it brings...and thx for the young Smithy advice I think I will bench Chaddy for this week.
