I take Turner and Brown

Definately Turner and Ronnie Brown

I like Turner and Thomas.
Only because I don't trust Ronnie Brown yet after surgery and Ricky still being there, and the addition of Marshall. If I'm right, Thomas will be running the ball much of the 2nd half in a close game that has NO on top.

Turner n Brown....Brown will light it up against buffalo

[KILDO]

Ok seems like no one is too worried about my main concern, which is starting turner against pitt defense... I guess my options are limited tho seeing as thomas is facing a great minnesota front 7 and cant be sure jacobs will play much or even get goal line carries...

I fall into the thought of you had to have taken a 1st pick on Turner. And he's the best runner you have. Start him every week I say.


So yeah, I agree on Turner and Brown.

Yep, Turner is currently your best back...gotta roll with your studs. I agree with Turner and Brown. I wouldn't go with Jacobs for sure, now that he's the number 2 back (although I wouldn't start Bradshaw over Brown either, as I posted on another thread).

Thomas is even more iffy than Brown when it comes to opportunity. I wouldn't be worried about Brown's return from surgery. He's had plenty of time to heal and is chomping at the bit to return. Lotsa upside with him in week 1.

However, I've considered starting Arian Foster over him because of all the love he's received lately. Help with mine?
