dabuffbills Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Starting Steven Jackson, who should be my #2? Willie Parker vs. Bal Ladell Betts @ StL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hezagenius Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Tough, but I'd go with Parker. He is a better back and that game is less likely to get out of hand. I could see the Rams putting up a lot of points and forcing the Redskins to throw. Baltimore is stingy but I think Pitt can move the ball.

dabuffbills Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 The only reason I'm afraid of starting Parker is that the Ravens shut him down last time. Betts has been on a roll lately and the Rams can't stop the run. Any other opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbluefan Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I would go with Betts, who is on a serious roll, and facing a bad Lambs rush defense ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stduke Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I would go with Betts...Rams are not that good and I think Betts will have a field day...Thanks for your answer on mine.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlie13 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I would go with Betts, who is on a serious roll, and facing a bad Lambs rush defense ! I agree Betts had another combined 143 yd day and should be a good start Vs. the Rams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmb 87 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I agree Betts had another combined 143 yd day and should be a good start Vs. the Rams I would probably start Betts if it were my team as well... but there is always that chance that Parker will bust a few huge runs and rack up a lot of points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabuffbills Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 Betts gets the yardage, but not the TDs. Will that change this week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slicker Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I like Parker. Many thought Willie would get shut down in Carolina and recommended sitting him. I didn't and he played well for me. He's been a stud rb all year, one that you don't over coach and bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetFanMike Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I'd go with Betts. FWP's great, but Betts isn't that far behind. And the difference in matchups is huge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfdigger Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Willie has been on a roll too and is much better at home as is the Rams defense. I think Betts has a good game but I just can't see sitting Parker. See mine: http://forums.thehuddle.com/index.php?showtopic=192012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfdigger Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 That was in Baltimore. The Steelers have struggled on the road and FWP has been very good at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomaTose Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Vote for Betts. Baltimore will be fired up because they have something to play for. Washington can and will run the ball and they are playing tough despite being out of the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Hour Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 If Parker were playing anyone but Baltimore or Minn at home, I'd say him, but he's weak against the phenomenal run D's. STL is weak against the run, and Wash will run early and often, esp. in the red zone. Betts is a can't bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
