Pick 2 RB please?

Question

MJD at Colts
Fargas vs Denver
Gore at Carolina
Maroney at Baltimore
D. Ward at Chicago

I am leaning toward MJD and Gore, but Fargas has a great matchup as well...who would you start?

Answer 1

Justin Fargas:

Has averaged close to 120 yards in his last three contests and has 2TD's in this stretch. The Broncos visit the Raiders and both these defenses are horrible against the run. Watch for Fargas and whoever Denver choses to run for them to have great games. This game will be decided on the ground with both these teams running the ball many times.

Frank Gore:

Gore busted out last week and should put up some nice points for you again this week. Since Jake went down for the Panthers the team seems to have turned itself inside out. Carolina's offense can't score and can't hold the ball, which forces their defense to get tired and sloppy and that's why teams are doing so well against them. Gore wont have a repeat of last week, but I'm pretty sure he's thinking of a repeat and will hit this defense hard.

MJD loses carries to Fred Taylor and Taylor has had better games of late anyway.

Answer 2

I would start Fargas and Gore. Gore is coming off a good game and is playing a struggling defense.

Fargas is coming off a good string of games and is facing a bad run defense. Also Oak is really committed to the run with all of their QBs struggling, and the are committed to Fargas. Jordan almost got released and rhodes is nothing more than a bench warmer.
My problem with MJD is he shares with Taylor and never seems to get more than 15 carries. While he will sometimes produce with those 15 carries i would go with the safe bet of Fargas who consistantly gets over 20 carries a game.
Good Luck!

Answer 3

Fargas (matchup against a run defense that is near the bottom in the NFL)
Gore

Answer 4

Go with your first two. Fargas has been decresing a lil each week and LaMont is going to get some playing time this week.

Answer 5

gore and fargas

Answer 6

I would also go with the first two guys.
