addai vs rhodes

addai only has 2 100yd days all year:

vs hou (105rsh/1td...48rec/1td)

vs sd (70rush/31rec)

....and he has started in all but 3 games

 

rhodes has only started in 3 games all year, but has gotten over 100yds in each game:

vs gb (73rush/2td...41rec)

vs ten (70rush/39 rec)

vs det (86rush/2td...30rec)

 

why do the colts fail to recognize that rhodes is the better back?

 

...and on the fantasy end, rhodes has put up 114 pts in his limited role compared to addai's "staggering" 96 pts

Totally agree with you. I owned Addai last year and he was great...I drafted him again this year in one of my leagues and he's been horrific. I have Rhodes in several leagues and I know when he starts he will hit the hole aggressively and make plays...Addai simply cannot do that this year. I think Rhodes gives the Colts their best chance at winning....even if I didn't own Rhodes I'd still think the same...that being said....please sit out one more week Mr. Addai...I need to start Rhodes one last time!

You might very well be right in your assumption that Rhodes is the better back, but I don't think you can base that on the stats you've listed above. True, Addai only has 2 games over 100 total yds, but he was splitting time with Rhodes in those games. Rhodes started in those 3 games because Addai was banged up. He didn't have anyone stealing carries from him. Just wanted to point that out, but I tend to agree that Rhodes is in a much better groove right now than Addai's been in all year.

So what are other Addai/Rhodes owners doing tonight? I could start one or the other or both, but I hate to waste a roster spot just to ensure points from basically one player...of course I suppose they could both put up big points...maybe... :wacko:

 

 

I own Addai and Rhodes and am playing in my league championship this week, and to me starting Rhodes is a no branier. I wouldnt start Addai if my life depended it on. The guy obviously has a hard time playing with pain, and I think it's obvious from the statements made by his coach as well as the GM regarding his status. Even if Addai plays, expect him to be extremely limited. As a matter of fact, if he does suit up, I'd be shocked if he made it to halftime without taking himself out of the game. I still have memories of that Baltimore game very fresh in my head as it almost cost me a playoff spot! Even if I'm wrong and Addai plays and plays pretty well, the reward most certainly doesnt outweight the risk in my opinion.

I own Addai but not Rhodes, and have little choice but to start Addai tonight in my championship game. My other option is Jonothan Stewart, I don't like his propoects that much on the road against the Giants this weekend. I'm assuming I will lose the battle at the RB2 spot in my championship game, just hoping not to lose it by so much that I can't make up for it at other spots.

Addai was my #1 pick (1.3) - easily the worst first round pick I've ever made; I did pick up Rhodes early in the season and have used him when needed. I am playing in the consolation game this week and am going with Rhodes on principle alone (and I have no other options...). But just watching Addai and Rhodes all season, I agree 100% that Rhodes hits the hole and runs harder than Addai. Addai runs like he's trying to go through a maze. Man, just run straight ahead, make one cut if you need to, and go! :wacko:
