The Answer Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Bus is a no brainer. Isnt he? Rudi torched Pitt last time for 123 and a score LT has been giving Chatham a lot of time. DO I dare bench LT2? Or do I try Bus and LT2? I can only start two RBs. I get 6 for a score and a point for every 10 yards rec/rush. I will try and help with yours if you help with some advice. thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Bus is a no brainer. Isnt he? Rudi torched Pitt last time for 123 and a score LT has been giving Chatham a lot of time. 1. While Staley is out, yes, Bus is a no brainer against the horrible rush D on Cincy. 2. Yes , Rudi had a good game against Pitt, but he is about the only RB to have a good game against them, and Pitt is playing better now. I bet against lightning striking twice in the same place. 3. The word on LT2 is he is feeling much better, and Chatman has not practiced all week due to injuries of his own..... LT looks like a super solid start to me.

wildbluefan Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 I am starting Bettis and Dillon , with great matchups, OVER LT 2 this week, as there are conflicting reports on LTs groin ! I believe Brees will be airing it out vs porous Raiders secondary, then get the big lead, OUT comes LT in favor of Chatman !!! I prefer the 2 RBS with great match-ups who likely get 20-35 carries ! (LT wont get that !) !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chargerz Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 I'd bench Rudi against a very stout Pittsburgh run "D". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Conflicting reports? I know that LT practiced on Wednesday and Thursday for the first time this week since the original injury. I also know that Chatman has NOT practiced. wildbluefan, you have two other good RB;s with good matchups, but benching LT this week, in my mind is a hugh mistake. I would start LT over just about any other RB in the league this week. i'm not sure where your conflicting reports are coming from, but there are some (two) very good threads in the football forum on LT, all with solid sources of info. I say he goes over 100 easy, with two scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Answer Posted November 20, 2004 Author Share Posted November 20, 2004 Blue, Are you saying start Rudi over LT? I dont have Dillon. RUdi went for 123 and a score against Pitt last time, but I think Pitt has found a groove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildbluefan Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 No, I would sit Rudi, in your case ! Steelers defense has improved since last meeting ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runner Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Start Bettis and LT2. Rudi will have a hard time tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
