I lost D. Davis and am left with these guys. I'm not even sure if they'll play at all. Who do I start?

HUGE TYPO... I meant "Joseph Addai or Stephen Davis" (wish I had Jackson...)

You have to start Addai, cause Stephen DAVIS isn't the starter in St. Louis, Stephen Jackson is.
What a confusing question!!
Addai might get a few carries alongside Rhodes, and if the Colts are winning by several TDs, then Addai will get even more carries...
Hope this helps, I'll be watching Davis's stats, I might pick him up...

Go with Addai. Keep in mind that Davis just signed with the Rams, while Addai has been with the Colts all preseason. Obviously it may not happen this early, but Indy has incentive to work RB-of-the-future Addai into the offense, whereas Davis still needs to pick up the offense in St. Louis and isn't a long-term investment.
If it makes you feel any better, I also lost D. Davis and am left with Samkon Gado and the entire muddled Vikings backfield this week. See - things could always be worse!!

I'd go with Addai over Davis. Davis has barely even practiced with the Rams and may not get a lot of touches. Too bad you don't have Jackson.

Addai is a rookie and hasn't earned the starting job yet, so he will split time with Dominic Rhodes for now.
Jackson is the man in St. Louis now, although he is facing a very good run defense in Denver and the Rams O-Line isn't what it used to be.
I would start Jackson without a second thought, however keep your eye on Addai in the upcoming weeks.

You start Stephen Jackson because he is the #1 rushing option in St. Louis. Addai will be backing up Rhodes and sharing carries.

Start Jackson in week 1 at least, he's a known feature back. Not sure how much Addai will play? He might be a sleeper worth holding on to, if he starts putting up numbers.

That shouldnt even be a question. Steven Jackson is a starter, unlike Addai.

Steven Jackson, some are saying that he might have a career year, Addai, he's not even the starter and he's gonna be splitting carries....

Stephen Jackson would have scored more points than Domnick Davis anyways
