With Foster on bye, who should I start this week? WHIR

Postby SmokyMcNasty » Tue Oct 19, 2010 1:25 am

I have four alternate RB's and I am complete stuck on which two RB's to start.. no ppr..

Ryan Matthews vs New England
Michael Bush vs Denver
Marshawn Lynch vs Arizona
Matt Forte vs Washington

It seems all 4 guys have pretty decent matchups. All four opposing defenses are ranked in the bottom half of the rankings when it comes to stopping the run. Which 2 would you start?

WHIR.. leave link
QB - Drew Brees, Tony Romo
RB - Adrian Peterson, Trent Richardson, Alfred Morris, Jacquizz Rodgers
WR - Brandon Marshall, Julio Jones, Vincent Jackson, Anquan Boldin, Golden Tate
TE - Heath Miller
DEF - Rotating
K - Justin Tucker

I'd probably go with Mathews. Floyd is out and Gates should see limited action. Plus they're at home against the Pats...San Diego is a Jekyll and Hyde story when it comes to home and away games. So frustrating because I have their D, Gates and Floyd.

Would you start Mike Williams (SEA), Felix Jones or Marshawn Lynch? PPR... Pick 2. Leaning towards Jones and Williams. I feel like AZ's run defense sucks though.

I'd go with Lynch and Forte. I think SD and OAK both will be forced to throw at some point and abandon the run. The others should be in the game the whole way and have pretty good matchups.

I would go with Forte and Mathews. Just make sure mathews ankle is ok. With all the injuries with receivers at SD they will have to rely more on the run and New England's D isn't what it once was.
Here's mine:

Matthews for sure.
Forte I would say not to start because Was has a good D, and has been injuring a lot of players the past few weeks, so I'm expecting him or Cutler to get taken out from some sort of injury and Forte won't see a lot of touches even if he stays healthy.
I would also start Lynch if he's starting for them for sure, if not start Bush instead.

help?

I'd go with Mike Williams and Marshawn Lynch.

Felix Jones will get more yards than Marion Barber, but if the Cowboys get in the red zone, you know Barber will get the looks instead of Jones. I think you have to start Lynch cause like you said.. Arizona sucks.. and Mike Williams was targeted a lot last week. I'd go with him again.

I'd go Matthews/Lynch. This will be Lynch's breakout party.

Please help.
