Benson, Addai or Portis? RB help for week 2

Postby directImpact » Sat Sep 18, 2010 1:25 am

Benson vs. ravens
Addai vs. Giants
Portis vs. Texans

Also starting Foster but need help picking my 2nd RB, non-PPR.

I think benson will be limited by ravens def so I'm almost ruling him out. How about the other too.

How is Portis's wrist?
Indy doesn't run the ball.
Go with benson. Cincy has a good enough passing game that they can spread the field.

Portis is listed as questionable. Probably shouldn't bank on him then.

It's just that I'm a little nervous starting any RB against the Ravens after seeing what thy did to the Jets.

Portis is out of the picture completely in my opinion. But that's only because I think he's past his prime.

Benson is a stud, but he's going up against a strong Ravens D, so I'm not sure.

Addai is going to get all the carries and catch a lot of passes.

So, for me this is a tossup between Benson and Adai. I want to lean to Addai, because he catches a lot of passes. He still has the breakaway speed and I think is the best choice.

tough choice for me between benson and addai. benson does have a tough matchup against the ravens. I think i would go with addai here. I love starting backs on high-octane offenses like the colts and packers even if they don't run as much. because when they do, defenses don't expect it as much which can lead to big runs. also, there are lots of scoring opportunities. last week, addai only had 10 rushing attempts, however he had 6 catches for a total of 16 touches and 73 all purpose yards. I'm guessing he gets a few more carries on the ground this game, and he should have a good chance to score.

please help me if you can... viewtopic.php?f=19&t=474473
