RB Question

Recommended Posts

I'm in the Championship game of my league and I have to start either Chris Johnson (against Pitt) or Portis (against Philly). Any suggestions?

As long as Portis is healthy, I'd much rather have Portis in that situation. I have CJ3, and I relegated him to the bench for the first time since very early in the season. It worked out for me because I started Rhodes instead, but regardless, I don't trust CJ3 this week.

 

He's had some ugly games against some rough matchups the last few weeks, and hasn't been the stellar performer he was earlier in the year even against his easier matchups of late. This week against a VERY motivated Pittsburgh team with about the best run D in the league and all the signs point towards CJ3 flopping BAD this week.

 

Others believe they have to start him, but I just don't think he'll be productive in the slightest. If I'm wrong, so be it, but I'm very happy with my decision to sit him based on how Rhodes picked up the slack and excelled.
