Tyler Jakes 0 Posted December 5, 2008 Who is the more solid (read: most sure points)? Hillis v KC Slaton v GB Both have favorable matchups versus the run, but I just want the best bet. Thanks for your help, leave a link! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nocarbs 0 Posted December 5, 2008 KC can't stop the run. Hillis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MONIST 1 Posted December 5, 2008 My guesstamation is Slaton. With Shanniganhan at the helm, any back can be their featured back if the run well that game. Besides S young is scheduled to play this week, so who knows. You just know that Slaton is Houston's featured back. If running is not there, they will pass to him.

idlewild 6 Posted December 5, 2008 Slaton Did you see his moves last week? Even though GB has a solid defense, he's a threat to break a big one on almost every handoff - AND reception (a huge factor that should not go unconsidered: this kid can catch too!)

whitey2876 0 Posted December 5, 2008 Tough one. I have to go Hillis though since he should get more shots against KC. But Slaton is huge for Houston and the featured back. You never know who will come in and steal some shots in Denver. I guess I would look at it this way. Roll the dice with Hillis. Go with a sure thing with Slaton. Either one is favorable. Even if Hillis has the better matchup. Good luck! Thanks for mine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigunreal1 0 Posted December 6, 2008 I have somewhat the same dilemma with Slayton, but I think I'd go with Hillis here, because the matchup is a little better.
