Scorcher Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I think Leon has a chance for the better game. He is a threat as a receiver and an open field RB. Should I sit C Johson a against Steelers and roll the dice with Washington? STD Performance league. My other RB is Rice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WashingtonD Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Yeah I think Leon has a chance at a better game...but it's a marginal chance at best...the odds are that CJ, even with a tough match up, will likely outperform Washington. CJ get's love in the passing game, and he'll be the benefit of check downs from Collins, plus we know it's going to be a slug fest, so he's gonna get a bevy of carries, and he's got home run potential as we all know. If Washington has a better game than CJ, it's going to be slightly better (A few Fantasy points), if CJ catches fire, his upside is higher... It is close because of match up, but I think you can comfortably start CJ Best of Luck, WashD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.K.Trey Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I will not be as diplomatic as WD, how can you justify sitting your first round pick in week 1? c'mon now , don't over think eveything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King of the hill Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I would go with C. Johnson even with the matchup. He had a decent game wk.16 against Pitt. last year. He will be the focal point of that offense, and the guy can bust one anytime. There's to much upside to bench him. Good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelhead Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Steelers will be ready to stop TEN and atone for last year. but I agree you have to start CJ. He should do ok and has a higher ceiling than washington. See mine on White and Jackson (similar issue) http://forums.thehuddle.com/index.php?showtopic=295219 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See mine on White and Jackson (similar issue) http://forums.thehuddle.com/index.php?showtopic=295219 This is going to be a low scoring affair so the run game on both sides is going to be critical. Expect RB's on both sides to get at least 120+ yards and at least 1TD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk53220 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Start CJ, Ten will run all day unless they are down by 21, I think he will get 75yrds, 2 catches 20 yrds and 1 TD off pass. He is prolly your 1st or 2nd rd pick do you really bench those guys??

stokers Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Man, real glad to hear everyone is going with CJ here. I really didn't want to bench him and thought I would be crazy to do so, but against that Pitt def. it really makes you think will he get shut down. Scorcher, ride your horse out....hopefully he'll have a good to great game for both of us. Good luck!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEPats Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I'm in the same boat - have Leon and Bell, but I will be rolling with CJ tonight and hoping he breaks one. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
