RB Help Please! WHIR

Postby sowen246 » Fri Oct 23, 2009 11:38 am

12 team h2h, scoring: td = 6pts, 20yds = 1pt, fum = (-)2pts

Gotta choose 1 of these:

MBIII - Quad inj? Broken thumb?, fumble potential?

T. Choice - healthy but not the starter?

B. Jacobs - Dissapointing so far, is this the week he wakes up?

M. Bell - poor matchup, but TD vulture?

What to do???

I lost a close one last week due to Jacob's td being called back while M. Bell sat on my bench :~(

My Roster:
QB: M. Cassel
RB: MBIII
RB: B. Jacobs
WR: M. Manningham
WR: D. Driver
WR: D. Bowe
TE: O. Daniels
Flex: M. Lynch
K: M. Stover
D: T. Davis
D: C. Lofton
D/st: Steelers
bn: S. Holmes
bn: D. McNabb
bn: T. Choice
bn: M. Bell
bn: C. Williams
bn: Chicago

I would have to say MBIII. The cowboys may be holding out Williams this week and they'll be leaning heavily on the run. Barber is defintely their goal line back, the only worry there is he's splitting carries 3 ways.

Jacobs I would say is your #2 option. He's definitely due to break out and they may end up pounding out a goal line score or two in a probable shootout game.

Anyone else?

I am really concerned over MBII's thumb and his ability to hold the rock in traffic.

Choice is healthy and I am wondering if he will be the main guy.

Start barber. His injured thumb is not on the hand that he carries the ball, so ball security should not be an issue.

you can start 2 RBs.

to be honest I would start Barber and Choice.

Choice will be taking 40% of the carries..believe me. Felix Jones will be returning kicks

To be totally honest, and partly cause of the thumb injury..the whole switching hands situation. I honestly belive choice has the better game than barber.

Sit Jacobs...he might be big, but he is slow, and Arizona is the best run defense.

sorry...i just dont like jacobs here at all.

Id strongly suggest sitting him this week

Bradshaw isnt gimpy at all. He has out produced jacobs 4 weeks this season.
jacobs is slow and big...he is up against the best Run defense in the league.
stay clear from jacobs

Barber and Choice I would start for sure..they are likely to both get a TD. more likely than jacobs is.

Choice is getting a big load this week. Last week he had 8 carries for 92 yards and a TD..choice is a better RB than forte too.
and i bet any amount of money if forte took Choices place on the giants, then everyone would say forte just cause of the name alone.

Choice is a more explosive back than forte.
