wrongheaded 0 Posted December 5, 2006 i have to start 2 backs. i have LJ home against baltimore , alexander vs cardinals, and gore home vs GB. i know shaun is a no brainer but do i go with gore over LJ? please help. no way you sit LJ. put gore down, he's a little dinged and the other two are healthy. dude, you're lucky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bstill 0 Posted December 5, 2006 so put him in my starting lineup and get a good night sleep. i think it would be worse watching him have a huge game on my bench then starting him and him do nothing.but this is a playoff game so maybe i am overthinking things Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MonkeyOne 933 Posted December 5, 2006 You're overthinking, stick him in and sleep well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

football12 0 Posted December 5, 2006 Yes, I was thinking the same thing and was correctly brought to my senses by the Huddler members.... that I should not sit LJ. IMO, it's a tough call, but I do think they are right. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderSteve 0 Posted December 5, 2006 You never bench your stud (LJ) but in this case isn't Gore reaching "stud" staus? It's really all bout match ups sometimes and if I had this decision I would go with Gore at home vs. a weak Packers defense! LJ should just do fine (I NEED HIM TO DO BETTER THEN THAT ACTUALLY FOR ME THIS WEEK) Please LJ....Please... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chinatown dragons 10 Posted December 6, 2006 Gore is good...not stud back yet...(doesnt score enuff TDs)..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderSteve 0 Posted December 6, 2006 Gore is good...not stud back yet...(doesnt score enuff TDs)..... As this may be true...how many TD'S did Reggie Bush score up to his 4 from last week! My point is one never knows...Gore could easily break off 4 td's the same...I just like Gore's match up better is all...just my Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chinatown dragons 10 Posted December 6, 2006 Well, difference is that Gore has been the STARTER all year....Bush isnt the starter.....ditto with Addai going off week before with his 4 tds.......Just think tough to bench the guy who has second most TD's in the league behind LT........

bstill 0 Posted December 6, 2006 although i want to start gore because of his matchups i would never forgive myself if LJ did well and i lost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderSteve 0 Posted December 6, 2006 although i want to start gore because of his matchups i would never forgive myself if LJ did well and i lost. Go with your gut feeling...use the force luke!!! On the serious tip if I was in your spot I would start Gore...that's just me...who knows these other Huddlers could be right too by sticking with LJ even against a super tough Ravens D. I need LJ huge this week also but my money would be on Gore to have a better week~! You could wait on DMD and look at his predictions too...He's been pretty solid in his picks through out the season.

Poncho_Nuts 0 Posted December 6, 2006 I have the same question but I have Rudi Johnson, LJ and Gore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfdigger 5 Posted December 6, 2006 I like LJ, they got the passing game going abit last week and it may help LJ in the running game. This is a big game for the Chiefs and they will rely on their stud! See mine: http://forums.thehuddle.com/index.php?showtopic=189177 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
