Which 2 RB's to Start?

**rttsbgtgb** · 11-30-2007, 07:21 PM

I'm not in your guys' fantasy league, but I need some advice, because I'm having trouble deciding who to start.

I need to start two running backs, and I have three I'm thinking about.

Justin Fargas
Jamal Lewis
Travis Henry (or Selvin Young, because he's available if I need him)

Fargas against Denver. Henry against Oakland. Lewis against Arizona.

I made the brilliant decision of benching Ryan Grant, who got 21 points in my league in yesterday's game. So I have to make up for it.

Any suggestions?

P.S. I know I wasn't blessed with any of the great running backs of the league. I've had to make due with running backs like this all season. I'm on a five game winning streak, 8 of my last 9, in second place, making a run for first with two weeks left, so I have to make this current line up work a few more weeks. So save the jokes about my running backs - I know they aren't great.

I'm not sure Henry or young are playing .. Usually I'm really on top of this stuff but I already clinched a playoff spot in my league and kind of slacked this week. I was under the impression that their third string "plug and play" running back was playing this week. So by default I would go with Lewis and Fargas... actually I would have gone with them regardless.

I'm kind of stuck today also on who to start for my RB's....

I'm in a big hole already, because of Sir Favre,
the big loser laid a big egg for me on Thurs., night.....

I have
\

Fargas,

CT

AP

LT

To chose from...

I'm thinking of going with LT and Fargas.....But have this funny feeling that if I don't play AP, I'm going to be paying for it....

Maybe I should just go with my gut and play AP and LT..... :

AP AND LT?!

Wow. Lucky you. I wish I had a RB controversy like that.

I say go with LT and AP. LT is an automatic start every week, I would think (except bye week). And Detroit sucks. I would be worried about AP just coming off an injury, but again, they suck.

There's my great analysis.

AP and LT
has been an awesome combo for me this season, and even when AP was out, I had CT to plug in for him, and CT did very well for me....

I'm just a little worried, the coachs may try to hold back AP some today and share the load with CT......

Then again, AP
has that type of personality where he is going to take the field today and prove he is back.......

I don't think I could go wrong with Fargas also.......But like I said, I may just go with my gut...matter of fact, I'm going to go plug in AP and LT right now... ;D
