I'd probably bench Best. He's on the worst offense and has probably the toughest matchup. AP can't be benched(especially against Detroit). Pierre will get more looks with Bush out and ATL isn't exactly a lockdown defense. And since Foster is on a much better offense that can move the ball better, I'd start him over Best(game could be high scoring too).

Agreed to bench Best...if you have to choose, choose the one on the better offense with the better chance. This is a good problem to have!
Im gonna have to say bench Pierre Thomas. The Saints can be very pass happy sometimes which limits him somewhat, although since there is no reggie bush thomas may get more touches. Hmmmm....I would still bench Thomas, I mean, how can you justify benching Best with the MONSTER game he had this past week, Jahvid Best IS the offense for that team. Hoped this helped at all!
Definitely not a bad problem to have, but I understand your frustration.
Best has the bleakest outlook based on matchups alone against an 0-2 Viking squad. However, even if Detroit is down early Best will still be a huge weapon in the passing game. He has so much explosive potential that you can't leave him on the bench, at least for now. Foster on the other hand had a great week 1 when all Houston did was run, but an average week 2 when he just watched Schaub go bananas. The Texan/Cowboy matchup will more than likely be shootout, in which case I don't see Foster getting the touches he had in week 1. So in your situation I would go with Peterson, Best, and P Thom, only because Bush is out of the picture in New Orleans and they're playing a division rival, but you're so stacked that I wouldn't stress too much about choosing otherwise.
