Wondering if i should start someone other than Chester Taylor. Take into account that i have beat him twice already this year because of the fact i had PETERSON and BRADY. Lemme know what you guys think.

Answer 1

First of all, there was a game on Thursday and if you missed starting Brandon Marshall and his 11 catches for 107 yards you kind of deserve a spanking anyway.

As for running backs, I cannot see why you wouldn't start TD thief LenDale White against a tender KC defense. The object is to get at least one TD from your running back so your monsters can blow away the field. Also, Tom Brady may have a fantasy disaster with the Jets throwing in a 50 miles per hour wind that changes direction by quarter - check the weather report for Sunday to believe me. Consider picking up a one-time QB play for your extra TE Watson.

Answer 2

with all due respect to the dude above me....DON'T BENCH BRADY!!! I don't need to tell you why.
I would start White over Taylor. It's tempting to start both MN RB; actually I am, but my only other option is Kevin Jones. KC is 25th against the run (Chicago is 24th), so the defensive matchup is similar. The difference lies in the fact that White is going to get the bulk of the carries for TN while Taylor will split carries with the Incredible Hulk. White should have a good game this week. He looked good last week, and the weather might be sloppy in KC, which favors the TN running game. The dude your playing does have a really good team, but so do you. Good luck
