LJ or RW?

KsPhIn · 09-03-2008, 05:52 PM

Who would you start?

LJ is playing the patsies and the Chiefs have a horrible OL now.
Ricky is playing the jets in what might be a pretty wet game so I'm thinking not a lot of passing.

I have RW starting now but I keep changing my mind. Gore is my other starting RB.

The wet game is supposed to be in New England NOT in Miami. Hannah is projected to be right over-top Foxboro by Sunday afternoon. So, you've got it backwards.

LJ should do better than expected if Brady can't throw due to Rain from Hannah.

Also, Sparano was just quoted in local papers that starting RB will be a game-time decision. He said he's been seeing a new burst from Ronnie that he hadn't seen in August.

Start Gore and Ricky-

Even with the chance of more shared carries between Ricky and Ronnie and with poor weather making LJ a better choice vs Pats, you should still go with Ricky. Ricky has gamechanging skills that give him the ability to give you BIG points on just one carry or catch.

Don't play Grant against the number 1 run defense in Minnesota. Ricky is a better choice, at least for week 1.

As far as Larry Johnson goes I think you're going to be asking yourself this question (should I start him?) all year long because the Chiefs will be bottom dwellers.

I always subscribe to the philosophy of "dance with who brung ya". If you liked him enough to draft him that high, you should play him. If you're having second thoughts about him, consider trading him for maybe Ronnie Brown (or other running back) and whatever other position might need an upgrade.
