myamane Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Can really use some help from my guys outs there. Really big game this week. Could decide whether I make the playoffs this year or not. I will start Deuce McAllister, but need to pick another RB from: TJ Duckett vs NYG Rudi Johnson vs Pittsburgh Onterrio Smith vs Detroit Please any help will be appreciated.

darin3 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 If you wanna play it safe, play Rudi. He rumbled for 123 and a score against Pitt in Week 4... but the Steeler D has improved dramatically since then. Figure he'll log 90 yards and a TD. If you want to roll the dice somewhat, play Smith. He may not be the "starter" but will definitely be the more productive back. He could easily post 100+ combined yards and will probably score at least once.

digitaldan21 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Start Onterrio Smith. -DD21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooker Man Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Go with Rudi. He may not win you the game, but he won't lose it either. He is will be good for 100-125 combined yds and maybe even a score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblaze Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Rudi, can't count on Smith getting the ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Football Fever Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Go with Rudi. He may be up against the Steelers but he will at least get the number of carries to try and be able to do something. You just can't trust TJ and Smith.

Studly Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Mooker, what is this "combined yards" bull? Rudi has 27 recieving yards all year long. Onterrio has more than that in the past two weeks alone, and had 104 recieving yards in week 3 before his suspension. I know he's in a RBBC, but I think he'll be the guy to come out of that eventually. Question is when that'll be. Basically, if all you need is 80-90 yards (Rudi's average per game) and an unlikely touchdown, then go with Rudi. He will get the carries and yards and is a very safe play. If you're needing more production than that, you might want to take a chance on Smith. He's got fresh legs being out for 4 games, a recieving threat out of the backfield and going up against a much weaker defense than Rudi on a much more explosive offense. Atouchdown is way more likely fo Onterrio. I'd stay away from Duckett completely. My two cents. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 I also say Rudi. He is guarnteed to get the touches. How successful he will be is up in the air but you simply cant guarantee the touches for the other two. I am guessing that he will get 80-100 yds and definately a TD.
