Do I bench Jackson?

Question

I have three decent RB but I'm trying to determine how much weight I should give the strength of opponent. I have
Jackson vs SEA
McGahee vs. DET
Cadillac vs. Cinci
I want to go with my two studs, but I have a feeling SEA is going to come out hot against Jackson and shut him down, while Caddy looks to have finally got it going and are playing a bad rush D on the Cinci team. What do you guys think?

Cotchery or Toomer as my #2?

Answer 1

Actually, i think all 3 RB's will have monster games. Seattle's defense has been looking weary of late, especially against Chicago. Though, with that being said, I'd still go with McGahee and Cadillac. Cadillac is due for big breakout game this week, especially against a weak Cincy run defense. McGahee will always get you 100+ yds, maybe 1 TD every week.

For the #2, I'd go with Cotchery (playing against a weak Miami team) Eli is going to struggle against ATL

Answer 2

I would bench Caddy. If Tampa Bay gets down (and they likely will), they'll have to go to the air. Gradowski played well last week and I don't see Gruden holding him back if they find themselves in a deficit. Caddy had one good game. He's definitely going to have more good games, but I'd take Jackson over Caddy this week.

Tough call on Cotchery v. Toomer. I think Shockey's injury means that Toomer and Burress will be used more often, even if Shockey plays. Manning has been going to Toomer often in the early part of the season. I think Toomer is a better play.

Answer 3

actually detriots run d has been pretty good. so i myself woul start jackson and williams. mcgahee hasnt been performing well at all this year and out of the 3 teams u mentions detriots run defense is giving 96 seattle 79 and cincy 144 but seatlle also had a bye week in there. as for the recieving issue i think u have to go with cotchery.

Answer 4

Caddy - Jackson

Cotchery
