Gore, SF at Houston
Portis, Was. vs. Philly

Thanks all!!!

I would bench Portis out of this list. All other 3 have delicious matchups and Portis is clearly in decline going up against a tough D with uncertainty around play calling and QB.

I've thought about that too, but how many times have you seen a team respond to the change in a positive way and just go off? Not saying it would happen, but I'm not sure...you are right about the nice matchups though...

I would sit Portis. After getting into a heated argument with his FB and having someone new calling the plays, then throw in a beat up O-line with Portis getting older and a tough matchup.... I think thats the one to stay away from.

Agreed, bench Portis. He had a big week against KC last week, but LT > Portis, I think he'll get at least 100yds.

I would bench Collie. I think starting the 3 RB will give you the most consistent production. You know Gore, Portis, LT will get their touches. Collie could also do well, but Manning has a lot of other weapons.

I agree sit Portis. He's done. I had him in a PPR and let him go this year and it's the best decision I could have made.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=456667
