So, I am starting Larry Johnson and Joseph Addai in two RB slots. But I have a third.
Should I start
McGahee
Thomas Jones
L. Betts
All are home games
McGahee vs Chargers
Jones vs Minnesota
Betts vs Atlanta
I am leaning away from Jones cause Minnesota has the best rushing defense in the league.
I'd go with McGahee v San Diego cause I trust him a little more than Betts. However, Merriman gets back this week and San Diego rush d is a little better than Atlanta without him.
So, I guess I'm going with Mcgahee or Betts. Am I making the right call? Who would you start?

Start McGahee. McGahee has the best matchup because he is playing San Diego, who only allow 3 less yards a game more than Atlanta who Betts is facing. McGahee has better fantasy numbers than Betts, so I would start McGahee.
Jones has a horrible matchup against the Minnesota Run Defense, which only allows an average of 56.6 yards per game. The Bears will try and pass the ball more on the offensive side of the ball, because the same Minnesota Defense is ranked 31st against the pass(242.5 ypg). So I would not start Jones.

Betts vs Atlanta. With Meriman back in SD and with something to prove, McGahee may have problems. I wouldn't necessarily lean away from Jones, Minnesota has a lucky defense.

While I would go with McGahee because he is the better back, Atlanta's defense is horrible right now and Washington showed last week that they can win. Plus, they have a rookie quarterback going up against a bad defense, so Washington will have to rely on the run. I'd go with Betts.

id go with mcghaee agaisnt the chargers. some kind of way the bills need to keep ladainian off the field so my guess is run the ball a lot to control the clock and keep the chargers O on the bench.

i'm picking Jones in an upset though...

also...feel bad for me...i have/had Portis, Ronnie B, and Tatum Bell all on my team.....
seriously....i'm throwing a pitty party right now
