Arias,
Starting either Dominic or Lamont is a bad idea. They are playing against jacksonville this week and will both get shut down.
Who else do you have in your league? What about Aaron stecker from N.O.? I don't think he will have a big game but he may get a TD.
Who else is available in your league?
Is Fred Jackson from the Bills available?
He should get a few touches this week (12-20) and has been productive lately.
that's the thing, no one is available.......we have two teams playing for third and fourth place and other teams playing gutter games........Stecker is not out there......Taylor isn't there.....there is no one out there...
I will have to check Jackson......but i think he was picked up after Lynch got injured....
I have no other choice to start Rhodes or Lamont Jordan.......I appreciate your guys reply.......
tell me if you think I'll win......My guys are on the left his are on the right.....standard scoring applies but we get an extra 5 points if a WR or RB gets over 100 yards.....No points for carries or catches....
QB -- Peyton Manning Derek Anderson
RB- Magahee, Rhodes or Jordan

QB -- Peyton Manning Derek Anderson
RB- Magahee, Rhodes or Jordan Portis & Addai
WR - Jennings, Fitz, Colston Burres, Wayne, Welker or Boldin
TE - Witten Gates
K - Akers Guy from NE
DE: Colts Vikes
Just checked....Jackson isn't avaliable......here is some of the RB's who are:
Warrick Dunn, Maurice Morries, Juilies Jones, Chris Brown, Leon Washington,
Jones.
Dallas should win this week.
Plenty of touches for both backs.
So you would go with jones over Rhodes or Jordan?
First off don't even consider Jordan. He will not get many carries. Rhodes would more than likely get most of the carries this week because they are closing in on the end of the year and they want to see what rhodes has to offer.
Its between Rhodes & Jones. I like rhodes a lot but how many yards can he possibly get vs. Jacksonville?
Jones will be splitting carries with barber and we all know barber will get most of the carries.
Flip a coin! If I had to choose I guess I would take Jones.
I'm saying Jones because Dallas should win big.
They'll be running the ball for most of the second half.
thanks guys......it's gonna be a difficult decision but either way i go, i odn't think the point differential will be that great....
i'm leaning towards Rhodes...
Arias
Jones is a good choice.
You'll be lucky to get anything out of Rhodes. Even if he gets ALL the carries (which he won't) - Jacksonville is ranked #5 in the league against the run.
Also - Oakland will probably be mailing this one in. Their season is already over, while Jacksonville is in the thick of it and looking good.
You really think Oakland is going to travel across the country and not only score on Jacksonville - but be able to consistently run on them? Not a chance.
Jacksonville will get up early and McCown will be running for his life and throwing the ball all over the place. Hell, you might even see Jemarcus Russell in this one.
Rhodes might get a score on a lucky screen pass or something, but it's a long shot. Jones is a much safer play.

Super Secret Pick Up for this week : DeDe Dorsey. Bengals. His stats are a little skewed from some big plays, but he is averaging 8.8 yards per attempt. He looks great every time they give him the ball. I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to give him a good look this week with about 10 carries and 2 or 3 passes. But you never know with this coaching staff.
It's a HUGE REACH, but no bigger a reach than playing Rhodes @ Jacksonville.
shit i dont know what to do.........
im thinking i start Bush now?
^I'm thinking Jones is still a better choice.
He'll get touches in the next few games because Dallas my want to move him in the offseason.

Not only that but Dallas will be wanting to keep Barber fresh for the playoff run.
I think Bush would be risky. I just don't see them rushing him back that fast. Even if he does get in, Stecker has proved he can handle the load. Bush would probably see a very limited amount of carries if he gets in at all.

Not a bad option...however I think Watson is going to get all the carries this week if Rudi doesnt go.
Bush looks like the best option now. N.O. is playing for the playoffs and they need bush to have a chance against Philly. It won't matter though because Philly is gonna knock them out of the playoffs.
however I think Watson is going to get all the carries this week if Rudi doesnt go.
Agreed - but I'm assuming Watson is already taken in his league.
"Agreed - but I'm assuming Watson is already taken in his league"
I'm assuming you are correct. My guess is watson will get 99% of the carries. Dede is a long stretch like you said. At this point he would be much better off with Bush.
Is Kolby smith available in your league? Or Kevin Jones? Or how about Kenton Keith? The Colts will not play Addai the whole game so Kenton Keith would be a real good one for you.
They announced Dominck Rhodes as the starter.....so im going with him......can't go with Bush.....I think he will just be used as a decoy......
Arias
Good luck Arias...I hope Rhodes does good for you.
Im in the semi-finals in my league. I have Brandon Jacobs & Ryan Grant this weekend as my running backs. I know Brandon Jacobs is going to do good...im hoping Ryan Grant does good too.
