ssharpe12 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Both in a similar situation. RB's playing at home vs. offenses that could get up early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
~Shifty~ 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Tough to hold out the leading rusher in the NFL at the moment, they are going to want to run the ball to keep Brady off the field. Thanks for the reply and good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buck Naked 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Wow, another tough one (I guess why else would a question be asked here if it were obvious, but I digress). On the surface to me Jackson screams out as the better play. Weak NE D, Jackson is great, at home, should be a shootout and as was said BUF will want to keep BRady off the field. However, Hoodie has gone on and on all week about how great Jackson is. For some reason I suspect he may have something up his sleeve to neutralize Jackson and make the Ivy Leaguer prove he can beat him. That's my only concern regarding Jackson, and I don't know that it is that valid. Blount bounced back strong last week, and this seems like the kind of game where he will do well. Smash mouth hard nosed game between to division rivals that both have high expectations this year. I think Blount gets at least one TD this week. I also think that Jackson either goes off or gets shut down completely. Also, what if NE goes up big early and then BUF abandons the run? I'm getting long winded here and still haven't really said anything. I like BOTH starts, who is your other RB? What about FLEX? I guess I would reluctantly go with Jackson if you made me choose. Thanks for answering mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jmsne 0 Posted September 25, 2011 I think Jackson has close to a hundy and probably a TD maybe more than 1. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=390283 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teren 2 Posted September 25, 2011 I dont especially like either this week considering their opponents. I expect both teams to fall behind fast but In week 1 Tampa showed they have no interest in using blount when they"re behind. Id play Jackson but wouldn't be as excited as most weeks.

jmueller44 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Most weeks I'd put Blount over F. Jackson, but this week I think that Jackson is gonna have some room to run. We know that NE puts up points, so BUF will be throwing late in the game, but the few runs and dumps off should get you at least 100 yards for the game with F. Jackson. So, F. Jackson it is today.
