I would give the nod to LT. He has been playing well as of late. With PT it is tough to know who will be getting a lot of the carries. Help with mine: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=463965

man that's tough, if PT was playing full time it would be a no brainer.. I'm not sure LT can have a great game against Dallas. LT gets goal lines, I'd probably go with him. but it's close

thanks for helping me

really tough one here.

DAL is tough against the run, but LT gets all of SD goalline carries
ATL is also tough against the run, but the with the NO high scoring offense they can move it on anyone to get into goalline situations and have proven to be faithful in their running game. But PT isn't guaranteed goalline carries.


i'd go with LT whose been hot as of late

go LT regardless of the matchup. once SD gets in the redzone he will be given the ball. the same can't be said for PT.

with TD only being 4 pts there isn't as much emphasis on Goalline. yards are easier to come by. But i still give LT the edge

LT has a nose for the endzone and is clearly still the #1 back in SD

Pierre is such a gamble, you never know who is gonna get the carries and where and when your gonna ge them.
