Playoffs!? Playoffs?! - Who would you start?

Postby Diavolo » Wed Dec 09, 2009 4:05 pm

I need to start 2 RBs among the following and I just can't make up my mind. It's really important because my playoff opponent has Chris Johnson, who could score like 30+ points against the Rams.

My RBs are:

Adrian Peterson vs. CIN
Thomas Jones @ TB
Rashard Mendenhall @ CLE
Ricky Williams @ JAX

Anyways your opinions are really appreciated! Thanks!

Well they always say stick with what got you there. I have to assume that was AP and Jones. Mendenhall does have a nice matchup but TB is terrible vs the run and Jones will destroy them. You cant possibly bench AP. Good luck

Please help

Thanks for the replies. As crazy as it may sound, I'm just don't trust AP as much as I used to. I'm leaning towards Jones and Williams myself... I benched AP last week and looked like a genius!

I would LOVE to know how you ended up with 4 backs of that quality (and not have traded 1 or 2 to upgrade your team!). Anyhow, I actually was thinking about benching AP myself this week (as ridiculous as it sounds), and I think if I had 4 ridiculously good backs like you do as options, I definitely would.

I would go with Ricky and Thomas Jones if I were you, with Ricky and Mendenhall being the 2nd choice. I only say Jones over Mendenhall because Sanchez is out for the Jets this weekend, and they are going to run Tampa to death..Jones should get a huge amount of carries.

Playoff time, I roll with AP and Jones. Jones will run wild, and AP has the ability to break out on any run defense.
