RB Help: Good Problem

gabe_halsey · 11-14-2008, 10:34 AM

Hey guys, I think I know who I'm going with anyways, but I wanna see what you guys think about my running back situation in this one 12 team league.

I've got
Marion Barber @ Washington
Ladanian Tomlinson @ Pitt
Chris Johnson @ Jacksonville
Larry Johnson vs New Orleans

Which two should I plug in, let me hear your opinions.

Thanks.

So hard to sit LT but Pitt has a great Defense. I would start Barber and probably LJ.

Jax has a nice defense also so im not sure how well C Johnson is going to do.

I have a similar problem...Which do you start at RB

Cedric Benson
Shaun Alexander (Portis and Betts are both hurt)
Peyton Hillis (Denver)
Jonathan Stewart

I would go with Barber and C Johnson. Romo is coming off the injury so they will try to rely on the run a lot and romo will look for barber out of the backfield. C johnson cause the titans just plain run the heck out of the ball and the titans will be on offense more than jacksonville. count on a back and forth ground battle.

Tomlinson and C. Johnson

have no idea what to expect of Cowboys with Romo back

I agree Tomlinson and C Johnson....LT not only rushes but he's a darn good receiver. With all the blitzes he sure to break a few short passes into decent gains.

jbellis....uugh, hope you have some kick a$$ QBs and WRs because you be hurtin at RB. My advice...S Alexander and Stewart...Redskins O-line makes Portis look better than he really is IMO

I played Stewart (120 yards, 1TD and Hillis 2TD's)

WD JB...I got super lucky....started both Carolina RB's...padded my stats nicely (thankfully as Ryan didnt do so well, and either need S. Moss nor my D ('Zona)...but pulled out the win! Go me..I'm now 2-7...streaking toward the playoffs

Nice job but that wasn't that big of a decision. Denver RBs do well usually. Benson blows (the whole Cinci line sucks) and Alexander should have retired 3 years ago.
