Slaton may be starting but I think it will still be RB by committee in HOU. Until MIN gets Winfield back in their secondary they are not the same. I say stick with Housh

Thanks for helping me. I'd say that it's a toss up, so I'd play the one that's definitely playing. Housh.

If slaton is starting then go with him.

Housh is more of a high risk high reward.

With all players healthy, starting RBs will always get more touches/opportunities than WRs.**

I think since it is a PPR league Slaton is the better choice. We know Houston will be throwing it all over the yard and with the TE out, Slaton should see a bump in dump off passes. The down side is I don't believe he will be on the field on 3rd down. The week off to prepare for this game and hopefully cure his fumble problems is a plus as well. Good-Luck!

Slaton is starting according to Kubiak - where you won't see him is on 3rd and short. On 3rd and more than 5 they want him on the field for his pass catching ability. He might lose some goal line work, but in a PPR league you've got to have him out there, praying that he holds onto the football. Housh is a good play based on the volume of passes SEA will throw, but I prefer Slaton in this one. Good luck!

I'm not convinced either that Houston won't go RBBC, so stick with Housh.

Thanks for mine.

I'd say go with Housh. Little Forcett is not gonna do much inside work against that Williams Wall....thinking they'll fill the air with passes. Winfield out also helps Housh case.

Thanks for the help on mine! :)

I like Housh too. They will be down and CJ got 80 yds last week against them with a rookie QB.
