Jennings or Mendenhall?

Postby kyyyyyyle » Sun Nov 07, 2010 3:00 am

Hiya, which of these two dudes should I put in my flex spot? Non-ppr, by the way:

GB-WR Greg Jennings (vs. Dallas) - seeing more looks from his QB and opposing DBs due to injuries to Driver and Finley. Going against the Cowboys who made Garrard look like Elway last week, and who are now missing Terence Newman.

PIT-RB Rashard Mendenhall (@ Cincinatti) - normally a cash cow at RB, and is playing a divisional rival with a mediocre rush defense (19th ranked vs RBs in my league). More troublesome is that he's only gotten 15 touches the past two weeks, with a lot of Mewelde Moore being worked in (presumably to preserve Mendy's health).

A month ago I would start Mendenhall with these matchups, but the situational momentum seems to be on Jennings' side. Then again, I tend to blow such things out of proportion, which is why I come to you brilliant fantasy minds to help me to not sabotage myself!!! :)

Who do you think I should start this week? THANKS SO MUCH, and please leave a link to your question so I can try to help in exchange!

A month ago, agreed; Mendy would be an auto start. From what I've seen, I think T-New is going to play (Probable last I heard), but even still, I kind of like Jennings more here. At home, I think he should go deep a few times. Even though Mendenhall is the focal point of their offense, I'm starting to think the Steelers can rely more on the arm of Big Ben to get things done, thus maybe halting his production. Jennings is a gamble because he might not catch anything, but I like his upside a tiny bit better than Mendy. I vote Jennings. Gl!
