RB issue...


Samuel L. Jackson

Recommended Posts

So, I'm the #1 seed in one of my leagues.. Here's the problem I am facing..

I have:

Adrian Peterson

DeAngelo

J-Stew

Le'Ron McClain

I can only start 2 this week.. Last week I went with AP and DWill.. I wish I would have went DWill/Stewart...

Should I pull AP against the Cards defense and put in Stewart? Is that too big of a homer move?

In my other league, I have scored way more points than anyone in the league, however due to the way I matched up a few weeks, I snuck into the playoffs as the #4 seed... Here's my RB dilemma there:

AP

Chris Johnson

DeAngelo

McGahee

Hightower

Right now, I have pulled CJ in favor of DWill.. Should I plug him back in against Houston and pull DWill vs. Denver or AP vs. Arizona?

Really tough call. I know that Travaris Jackson is going to cause the Cards to stack the box, but I can't see benching him in favor of Stewart who is inconsistent from week to week in terms of the carries that he gets. I'd stick with D Will and Peterson.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'd probably bench Adrian Peterson in favor of Williams and Chris Johnson. Ryan Grant ran all over Houston last week, and obviously the Titans running game is more formidable. You couldn't go wrong with any of the options, but the Travaris Jackson option scares me just enough to leave him on the bench. Williams is a must-start though against the crappy Denver defense.

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
