Subject: RB To Start This Week?


  Posted by: Warren - [31831819] Sat, Sep 15, 2007, 00:33

In my league, we start 2 Rb's. I have Tomlinson as one of my rb's so I know I am starting him. I am trying to decide who i should start for my second RB. This is who I have:

Derrick Ward vs. GB
Marshawn Lynch at Pitt
Lamont Jordan at Den

Of these choices, I'd select Ward. Lynch is playing a very decent Pittsburgh rush defense while Jordan won't have as many opportunities with McNown out PLUS he goes up against that tough Denver defense. I think Ward will do a decent job vs. GB.

I say Lamont Jordan has the biggest week of the three if he stays healthy and if the coach realizes all their success last week was when they focused on the run to set up the pass.

I was just reading the passing/rushing match-ups that FBG puts out each week. The Bills rushed for 112 yards (4.3 ypc average) against Denver. I have a huge Raider bias so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but Jordan was my RB pick this year to have a rebound season.

I'd agree that Jordan is the hands-on favorite for a bounce-back season. I just dont hink its gonna be this week. I'd start Ward.
