So I was one of the many that thought Rainey would tear up ATL. So there went one if my 2 RB slots for only 6 points. Now I have my second slot and my flex. There are no wr's on my roster that are worth the flex this week so these are the rb's I have:
-Lynch
-Ellington
-Ahmad Bradshaw
-Khiry Robinson
I was actually considering benching Lynch a few days ago because of his back problems and the low snap count he had last week. Especially with the Denver D and him getting a bye week next week. I figured the team would take it easy on him again and not take any chances. Then he got a full practice in and I realized Seattle will try to keep denver off the field as much as possible. This means longer drives / more running the ball. So he goes into my starting line up. (Not to mention, it's frikin Lynch lol)
Here is where it gets tricky. . All of my other RB'S look like they will have great games. I'm leaning Bradshaw. He has looked like a monster lately. Richardson looks like a joke. Now they are going against Jax and I know they will take an early lead and be running a lot too. With Bradshaw ' s incredible game right behind them, I see him getting the touches and going off. Not to mention he is great for goal line work.
Ellington is going against SF but it's not the same SF as last year. Plus Dwyer is out which should increase his touches slightly. Unfortunately, I don't see Arizona using him for goal line work, but rather his backup. Another thing to think about is that with Palmer out, I see them running the ball more.
Lastly, I am just throwing this out there but I ever so slightly considered Robinson. I think he is a beast and will finally get the nod to start with Ingram out. He will be the guy getting all the yards while Thomas does the sporles/woodhead thing.
I an only choose 2 and lynch will be one. Who would you guys choose to fill in the other spot?
