419 - Are Tate and Ward splitting carries if Foster can't go? I will let Real Joker comment on this one since that is his team and he knows them inside and out. It appears Ward will get the start if Foster can't go. The question is how will the carries be divied up? Who gets goal line carries? etc. I think if Houston is smart they will sit Foster and let him heal to 100% before putting him back out there. They are currently favored by 9 points, so this is a decently easy game for them. No reason to risk further injury by playing Foster. With that said, they have the dumbest coach in the whole league. So anything is possible. |

Schaub doesn't usually play well against the Colts D. Pass rush and cover 2 gives hom trouble. Derrick Ward is the "starter" if Foster cant play because he is better in pass protection. But Tate would get more touches throughout the game imo.

Tim Hightower vs the giants or Javid Best vs. the bucs? .5 PER REC league. 5 pt bonus at 100 yds rushing or recieiving |

Tim Hightower. Tim has looked amazing in the preaseason averaging 6.8 yards per carry. He is getting the majority of carries in Washington.I think he is good for 80 yards and a TD. Best isn't a bad play this week either as Tampa's run defense was terrible last year. However, Tim is the play this week. |

Brees scored 40 for me, so i think i will be conservative and start Hightower. |

leglockfan -TheRealJoker - Mendenhall stunk it up but so did the rest of Pittsburgh :-(Mike Tolbert is on my bench in two leagues... Same here... now that I know he gets goal line, 3rd down, and 50% of all carries... I will have him as my flex for the rest of the season. That dude is a beast.. I've seen him in person and he is huge. Like a big bowling ball.... very hard to tackle. |

I'm up 98-97 with Brady, Welker, and Lloyd left. My opponent has Jacoby Ford an the Pats kicker Gostkowski left :-) But he started Tolbert which kept him close thus far!!!

Was it unfair to start both Brady AND Welker? |
