which rb gets the start

Recommended Posts

Ballard vs Buffalo at home or

Hilolman vs KC on the road

 

I have a big lead because I had Stafford and Megatron starting so do I go with the conservate call of Ballard since I know he will get 10 to 20 touches against a bad Buffalo defense or do I still start Hillman who has a higher ceiling but could also be a total bust

I think I would play it safe and play Ballard. He's sure to get 15+ touches. Buffalo is not an imposing defense. I'm not sure they trust Hillman enough yet. I would not be surprised if Fox plays it close to the vest and uses Ball for his 3 yard carries and pass protections. He just wants to keep Manning upright when the game is in question...I think Hillman may get some clock killing touches and screen work, but it might be hard for him to find the end zone which is where games are won or lost...

This is a tough one..

KC ranks 25th against the run and 7th against the pass so will Denver have to run it more? Probably not and we all think there will be garbage time carries for the Denver rbs.

Buffalo is 31st against the run so the Indy rbs should do fine, but who will get more touches?

 

Id go safe and play Ballard, you know he will get around 10-15 carries. Hillman could get stuffed every on of his early runs and sit on the bench the rest of the game, less likely with Ballard. Thanks for the help, good luck!

I would roll the dice with Hillman. Ballard is in an almost even time-share with Brown, and Hillman may be the guy to own in Denver. He may get a rush AND a rec TD
