theboxcutter Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 This week's matchups are giving me a headache. I need to pick one of the following two RBs to give the ball to (Performance Scoring): Portis at DAL Cadillac vs. BUF I'm leaning slightly towards CP because his line looked improved from last year against CHI and because he'll be ready to bring his game up a notch for MNF. However, Gruden is hinting that we might see more of the Cadillac in the passing game and he looks to be getting all the touches for a more productive team. Also, Caddy is in his home opener and I see the Bucs scoring more than the Skins (giving CW more of an opportunity to get in the endzone). Both are facing rough defenses and neither really stands out to me as the clear-cut pick. I really can't decide. Any thoughts? Thanks.

B Man Inc Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I would go with Portis. Cadillac had a good game last week but the BUF defense is sick, look what they did to DD. I think Cadillac will be reminded that he is a rookie this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Portis DAL vs BUF DEF is a no brainer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboxcutter Posted September 16, 2005 Author Share Posted September 16, 2005 Portis DAL vs BUF DEF is a no brainer 993676[/snapback] what about the brunell factor vs. dallas? buffalo at least has to respect the pass vs. griese while dallas could stack the box like they did to LT last week. anyone out there in favor of giving cadillac the ball this week over portis?

Grits and Shins Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 I like Carnell Williams alot ... but he isn't a proven stud yet based on one great week. Portis is a proven stud with a potential bad matchup. Portis was the ONLY bright spot in a tough matchup last week. Give Portis the ball.

Scooby Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Portis in Dallas with the new and improved 3/4 D featuring the likes of Ware makes me think Caddy is the best option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Completely Lost Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Portis has a better chance than Caddy. I have him, and am not starting him against the stingy Buffalo clan. If it was not for the 73 yards scamper, caddy was worthless last week. Go portis! Would appreciate some help as well: http://forums.thehuddle.com/index.php?showtopic=109632 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
