Pierre Thomas over Cedric Benson. Really??

Man, I know they say to play your best players, but I have a hard time believing that Benson does it again against the Ravens. Right now, I have P. Thomas in my starting lineup over him. Cedric is the guy in Cincy and Thomas shares with two other dudes, but I am having a hard time putting Benson in my starting lineup. I'm 2-6 and really need a win this week! If he goes off against the Ravens for the second time this season, I'll play him every week and never doubt him again...until then, am I crazy to start Thomas over Benson?

My roster:

QB: Rivers (just traded McNabb + S. Smith (NYG) for Philip Rivers today!)
WR: A. Johnson
WR: H. Ward
RB: M. Jones-Drew
W/T: G. Jennings
W/R: P. Thomas
K: Stover
D/ST: Packers
D: Will Witherspoon
DB: E. Weddle
DL: J. Tuck

Bench: RB, C. Benson
Bench: RB, K. Smith
Bench: QB, Garrard
Bench: TE, Witten

Any thoughts? I WHIR 100%! Thanks in advance!

Still, you would rather go with a RB that is splitting carries 3 ways? I can't do it. This may be a close game which means lots of carries for cedric. Gotta stick with him.
