This is what I have set right now. Hate starting players going up against my Cards, especially since I have Cards D too. Oh well. Hopefully this ends up being the right choice.

Shady

There is no justification to bench Shady. He is one of the five absolute must start RBs in all situations.

That statement is inevitably untrue. If you have 3/5 "absolute must start RBs" and can only start 2, then you can't start them in "all situations".

I would argue that Brown is getting close to that top 5 list. He is a beast.

Wut

He's been back 3 weeks and he's not even in the top 10 PPR RBs over the last 3 weeks, much less top 5.

Over 4 ypc in 1 out of 3 games, which came against Dallas, the worst run D in fantasy.

Plays on a shitty team w a volatile offense

I fail to see his beastlyness. Decent enough RB2 or flex with the potential to severely burn you down the road

The five absolute starts are apparent. Peterson, Charles, McCoy, Forte, and Lynch.

There is no way you have enough of these guys to bench any of them.

First of all, I don't play in a PPR league, so that's irrelevant. If I was PPR then there's no way in hell I'd even be considering Brown over McCoy. But I disagree with the whole there are 5 running backs you should always start no matter what. McCoy is up against THE toughest run defense in the nfl while Brown has a great matchup against the 7th worst. It's a close call.

And I have Peterson and McCoy. So it wouldn't be that absurd for me to have 3/5. I could easily have traded 2 of my WR for Charles or Forte. But that would have been stupid since I can only start 2 RB.

To show the point I'm trying to make: Yahoo has placed Brown inside your mythical top 5 "Never Bench List", bumping McCoy to #6 for this week. Thus creating quite a dilemma for me.

Right now I have Foles and McCoy both locked in. Someone convince me otherwise in the next 30 minutes.

It has nothing to do with a top five. There are X number of players each year that are so good that you should not bench in any circumstances. This year, there are five of them. But go ahead, start a guy who has looked good for three weeks.

I really wish I would have stuck with my gut and benched Shady. I have a bad feeling that Brown is going to go OFF tonight. And I'm going to lose my matchup. shite.

And so it begins. Dammit. Almost as many points as Shady had early in 2Q.
