darin3 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I currently have Kevin and Thomas in there, but Minnesota's run D has been pretty stout... so Kevin is a maybe. Cedric Benson has been getting more important carries and Thomas has a nagging injury... so Thomas is also a maybe. Jones-Drew is the only non-starter, but has the best matchup and potential for big numbers (our league gives double points for RB receiving TDs). What say you, and why?

Big John Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I don't like KJ's matchup vs MIN. So I picked the 3rd choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowboutthemCowboys Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 post the matchups NEWB! Seriously, KJ's matchup is by far the worst of these. Thomas Jones and Drew look like your starters to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokers Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I have KJ as well, and I'm resting him for Barber III I took the 3rd choice as well. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefjay Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I think KJ squeezes out 90 totals yards and a TD but I also like Jones Drew. not sure about TJ, haven't been following that situation lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puddy Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I benched KJ last week due to him coming back from an injury and going agains a VERY stingy Pats defense. I watched the game and while he didn't score, he ran hard and caught the ball very well (as usual in this Martz system). The other reason I like him better over both TJ and Jones-Drew is he is the only ball carrier (save a few breathers from Arlen Harris). IMO the decision is between TJ and Jones-Drew. As much as I like what Jones-Drew has done this year I'd pick TJ this week against St. Louis. Benson's presence scares me a little but Taylor is getting at least 50% of the touches in Jacksonville. So, KJ and TJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, KJ and TJ. That was my first thought too, Pud. I decided to bench KJ though. I'm not in the playoffs; simply playing for weekly high score, which would net me $50 or something. I want to start Jones-Drew because of my leagues scoring: double points for receiving TDs. Indy's run D is soooooooo bad. And I will be out of town on Monday night, watching the game at a sports bar. As a Bear fan, I want to be able to root for the team AND TJ. I'd be pissssssssed if I benched him and he went off. Sort of goofy reasoning, but like I said, I'm only playing for high score. Thanks for all the responses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Majoris Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I don't like KJ's matchup vs MIN. So I picked the 3rd choice. Likewise. I think Kitna will have a big game and if they use him in the passing game, KJ could too. Nevertheless, TJ and MJD would be my picks.

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Likewise. I think Kitna will have a big game and if they use him in the passing game, KJ could too. Nevertheless, TJ and MJD would be my picks. I'd have a real hard time starting a RB against MN nowadays other than LT or LJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Beatings Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Voted TJ and MJD I'm not a huge TJ fan, but I think that Minnesota's run D is gonna crush KJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
