RB Help - Start Stewart over Benson?

[jaymcculley]

Hey everyone, I need your help. I have great RB's but can only start two. Which two would you start:

Jones-Drew vs Texans
Benson vs Lions
Stewart vs Bucs
Charles vs. Broncos

WHIR!!!!!! Leave a link

If D. Williams is out I would definitely start Stewart, if not start Benson.

Very tough call; don't envy your position. I think you start Benson. Detroit is horrid. Even if LJ eats into his carries, he's bound to have a good game.

One could argue that with Delhomme out with the broken finger, the Panthers will rely even more heavily on the run (how much more can they really do that, I'm not sure - they're already a run-first offense and Delhomme is having a horrible season)... and Deangelo is out. So it does make sense to consider Stewart. I just picture this game as a very low-scoring affair, while I think Cincy will roll over Detroit and CedBen will have multiple TD opportunities. My two cents!

Good luck!

I think Benson will be the workhorse (coming off an injury) with Bernard Scott out. LJ might steal a couple of carries but I think the Bengals sat Benson out last week to make sure he was 100% healthy down the stretch. Stewart is a good option if DeAngelo is out. However, I would still lean towards Benson.

This is from Rotoworld: DeAngelo Williams is good to go until proven otherwise despite missing practices. Jonathan Stewart would be a top-ten play if Williams was out.

FYI: Benson is 9th in their rankings this week and 6th in Fantasy Cafe's rankings. He's ranked ahead of both Williams and Stewart in both.
