Am I crazy to start Charles over Pierre or Forte? (WHIR)

Postby toobitter » Thu Nov 05, 2009 4:35 pm

I think it's a given to start Pierre Thomas this week against Carolina.

But for my flex, I'm strongly considering starting Jamaal Charles over Matt Forte.

I know Forte's the stud here, but he's been a huge bust. I picked up Charles with the intention of using him and I may not get to past this week. We also get return yards points. KC may opt to use somebody else for returns since Charles is starting, but it seems like a possible added perk.

What do you guys think?

Yeah...I like starting guys looking to prove themselves like Charles...I would plug him in over Forte this week...I always play the matchups with RB's...Forte is no stud anyway
Good Luck

Crazy no..... asking for a losing week...YES!
I would let Charles prove himself at least once before kicking a stud to the side....but that's me!

Def start Thomas. Its tough one between Charles and Forte. I think you have to start Forte because Charles just hasn't proved himself yet. Give it one more week on him. That being said I wouldnt expect too much out of Forte due to the Oline being garbage and they might be playing from behind. And trust me I know since I am from Chicago. Thanks for helping with mine
