Gros Membres! Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Pick one to start with LJ...PPR scoring (1 PPR) Lewis at home vs. OAK Should be HUGH. D stood out last game. Do they just run it down their throats in this one? I lean toward yes. Bush @ GB The kid has potential in a PPR, no doubt. But he's in a timeshare and the situation for that team isn't quite as favorable - in GB, GB coming off terrible loss, etc. Pick one. Thanks for the help!

drarto Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Tough decision because of Bush's playmaking skills, however, even with PPR, if you don't start J.Lewis against the Raiders, when do you start him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I'd go Bush easy in a PPR...he may catch 10 passes this week....may... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsleyjr Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I'd go Bush easy in a PPR...he may catch 10 passes this week....may... no he won't catch 10 passes! would everyone relax with all this Reggie Bush crap. He is a BACKUP, you cant start a backup rb over a #1 who will get 20+ carries, unless u want to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grassfeeder Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Personally, I say, and I am, starting Bush against GB. In a PPR scoring league he's going to put up numbers. Sure, he's sharing time however he's also lining up as a reciever, coming out of the backfield and returning kicks - all positive yardage, all touches of the ball all against GB's weak defense. Lewis has had a bad hip problem for um, 20 months now? I don't quite trust his health to be honest. I think Bush has more upside. I would also look at the roster you're playing against.......do you need to take the chances to squeeze every last point out to win or should you win comfortably given your players play a projected game? I know I have 3 starters hurt on the bench so I'm going for the upside to try and milk some pts..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsleyjr Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 he had 22 touches last week....1 for 1 so far... Yes he did and still was outscored in most leagues by 15 to 20 backs, dont get me wrong I love his potential but everyone gets so carried away with "the next big thing" that they get blinded by the name.
