ThatDude Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I'm starting him this week. My only other option was Dunn and Droughns since Jacobs is out. Gore has more upside.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know what will happen. Remember a few weeks ago when Jamal Lewis had 4 TD's.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peepinmofo Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 One can on;y hope! You never know what will happen. Remember a few weeks ago when Jamal Lewis had 4 TD's.... Are you comparing Lewis to Gore, or the Browns to the 49ers? Gore is better than Lewis, and the Browns are better than the 49ers. I dont think you can expect 4TDs out of Gore since he is the only guy they have to stop on that team. Cleveland has a pretty damn good offense right now.

I was basically trying to say anything can happen.... Nobody expected Lewis to score 4 TD's in one game. It's possible that Gore gets a long TD today.....

Im benching him until he gives me more than 10 points, or until Chester Taylor goes back to his backup role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im benching him until he gives me more than 10 points, or until Chester Taylor goes back to his backup role. I agree with you. If you have a better option at RB I would sit Gore. Unfortunatly for me my options at RB are not better than Gore so I have to play him and hope his upside results in points one of these weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelhead Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I could dump Henry for Droughns but I think Gore is probably the same as Droughns at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rileyrott Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I am starting him, as my only other "options" are Anthony Thomas filling-in for M. Lynch (not a good match-up at all against JAX), and N.Davenport, as I didn't start T.Jones Thurs against Dallas (which was a good decision). I was tempted to start both FWP and Davenport, but after last week's lean effort from FWP, I'm going with Gore, and hope for the best.

ThatDude Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I could dump Henry for Droughns but I think Gore is probably the same as Droughns at this point. I'm a Jacobs owner so I picked up Droughns this week as well. I still think Gore is a better start than Droughns since they are playing the Vikings...

In addition Grant had a 5.7 yard average against them recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelhead Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I think you can flip a coin here. Neither will put up good numbers. We are splitting hairs here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I think you can flip a coin here. Neither will put up good numbers. We are splitting hairs here. I agree. I think Droughns wants to show what he can do, but either could be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTheWebToedBoy Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 F@ck it..... I'm starting A. Hall over Gore, and Gore over N. Washington With S. Holmes, B. Jacobs, and M Lynch all out I'm starting: Hasselbeck Gore A. Hall F. Taylor D. Bowe P. Burress A lost knocks me out of the playoffs....

ThatDude Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Glad I started Droughns. I have 8 points from him already and Gore will be lucky to match that all game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate lookin' at 40 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Benched Gore, started J Lewis and C Benson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason the Giants always play the Vikings well. Besides their run D hasn't been great lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skilly Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Gore will remain on my bench for the rest of the season. More out of irrational hatred for wasting a #1 pick on him than anything else. I am starting a piece of string in his place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
