I've limped into the championship game (I miss you D-Mac)
My choice is between:
Willie Parker home vs. Baltimore
Reggie Bush @ NYG
Willie's been a top 5 back for a while - but it's Baltimore and they held him to <40Y & 0 TD in thier first meeting.
So Bush I believe has a better chance of scoring - thou also a better chance of putting up no yards.
What do you think?
P.S. My matchup is about dead even best I can tell - so I shouldn't need a magic performance to win / but every last point will count.

Bush is a much better option. The Giants defense is depleted, and Baltimores 3-4 scheme is better at stopping the run, especailly with Ray Lewis and Pro-Bowler Terrell Suggs anchoring down that top notch LB unit. The Giants are playing injured including Osi Uminora whose been sluggish at best the last few games hes played, and Strahan might not even play this week. The LB core is also hurting. Finally, Bush can rack up recieving yards and punt return yards as well, making him a better choice than Parker all arround.

Hmmmmm . . wow . . thats such a hard decision . . Id go with R. Bush . . Im not 100% certain though . . W. Parker has experience and he can run when it matters most . . but R. Bush can put up numbers despite a home game against the Redskins but Coach Payton is beggining to use him contstantly and it seems obvious that he will continue to do so . . um the Giants defense doesnt seem too healthy right now . . or at least their LB corps . . so . . if it were me Id go out on a limb and start R. Bush . .
P.S.
I didnt make the playoffs because of what happenned to D-Mac :'(

Let me ask you this, can you really bench A top 10 fantasy player in favor of a rookie?
Granted Bush isn't your average rookie, however, You gotta take the guy getting more touches. That is Willie Parker. Besides, he is having an increadible year.
The guy I'm playing has bush on the bench in favor of LJ, Gore and Marion Barber. I would start Paker over Barber any day.
You can't always play matchups. You have to leave your studs in all the time, and yes Paker is now considered a stud in fantasy football.

Bush.
I'm a fan of Willie Parker, but I wouldn't put any running back against the Ravens' defense. Bush may not get as many carries as Parker, but he'll make up for it with receiving yards.

Go with Bush. He has something to prove since he really didn't do anything last week.
