Felix Jones or Tim Hightower...?! WHIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Postby Bo Knows 2009 » Thu Sep 15, 2011 7:15 pm

Hey guys,

I'm having a little trouble as to who to start in one of my 4 RB's in Week 2.

Felix Jones has to go against the yard eater 49er D that likes to stuff the box but is not good in pass coverage...(note: hopefully ppr comes into play)

Tim Hightower is going up against an ARI D that gave up a number of yards on the ground and air in Week 1.

thanks guys for the input.

I would go Felix Jones because I think the Cowboys will get ahead early and run Jones to run down the clock. good luck!

Jones; better player, better team. Outweighs the matchup Hightower has.

I like hightower here too.... Jones is the better back but I think this matchup outweighs this.

Start calling him the "Skyscraper". He will be new #1 RB for WAS. He will be the "SHANNAHAN FIND" or whatever they call it. I'm big on Hightower right now, the WAS O line has not miss a snap together since training camp! They are OSYNC. Unless Fitzy (ARZ) becomes their best player on DEF too, I dont see much in his way. Oh and the 9er's D will win that match up even PPR. But as always JustMyOpinion.

Can ya help? http://www.fantasyfootballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=496839
