Rice or Kuhn...can't believe I'm asking this...WHIR!!!

Postby 16FAC » Sat Oct 02, 2010 1:40 pm

1pt for every 20 yds rus/rec
6pts for every td
-2 for fumble lost
non ppr

Rice is banged up and facing the unbelievable Steelers D
Kuhn is splitting with Jackson but faces Det. horrid D

I seriously cant believe I'm even contemplating the roster swap but Rice has been a let down and he is banged up. Steelers I'm sure are licking their chops but maybe he can produc with short passes. Kuhn may get 12 touches but can he manage a TD and respectable yardage?

Leave a link and I will hit yours.

Thanks alot for the help with mine.

I agree its very difficult to bench Rice. but I think with your choices you have to play him. to say the least he is overdue.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the help

I have a feeling that Brandon Jackson will have a decent day which will take away carries from Kuhn. I live in Green Bay and he usually does good against the horrible defenses and awful against the good ones. Kuhn would get the goal-line carries but I don't see many of those coming. Start Rice

Rice in a tough matchup is an easy call on this one. He has the highest per game rushing average ( yards per game) among all rbs over the past 2 years vs pit, kind of a fluke stat but one that should give u confidence in choosing rice over Kuhn.

Yeah easy call here.... You have to go with Rice. The GB backfield is a mess.

And never bench your studs!!!!

I'm a GB fan and I agree Rice, he is due. Detroit also does a nice job vs the run with their big front four.

Most definitely go with rice man! he can win it or lose it for you and i doubt
Kuhn will win it for you this week even if he scores, but you cant sit rice and
watch him have a big day 100 total yards and a score will be more than kuhn gets.
all it takes is one big run for rice and kuhn wont be breaking any big plays any time soon.

thanks for the help with mine.

have to agree with others, rice is still your guy. it might be painful, but kuhn is just too risky.

Thanks for the help with mine. Yes Rice has a tough matchup, and yes he's banged up, but unless he's sitting on the sidelines all game, I would start Rice. He's your top 5 pick for a reason, and should be matchup proof to some degree. Add to the fact that who knows what kind of work Kuhn will get with Brandon Jackson in the mix, and I think the safer play is Rice. Assuming Rice starts and gets his touches, IMO, he's the safer play.
SKOL VIKINGS!
