Junkie 0 Posted December 13, 2009 He's going against the Bills, who give the most points to RBs on the season. Since he's taken over as the starter he's been pretty solid. I've never been one to bench my studs, but I see him being a better play over Gore this week. I'm struggling with that decision...and I also have PT on my bench... This decision could make or break my season. Anybody think Charles will have a big day, or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigMilk 40 Posted December 13, 2009 I'm starting him over Ced Benson today but I don't feel great about it. Benson has done well against other tough matchups this year (Bmore and Pitt run defenses), but everyone has such a stiff one for Charles this week that I'm drinking the Kool Aide and starting him.

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted December 13, 2009 I'm starting him over PT and Fred Jackson both of whom are in timeshare situations and their headcoachs can't be trusted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TennisMenace 156 Posted December 13, 2009 if you own him, how can you not????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swirvenirvin 25 Posted December 13, 2009 playing him as my flex I guess or my #2 and McCoy is flex, whatever he is in my lineup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plasma george 52 Posted December 13, 2009 if you own him, how can you not????? Cause he's RB4 behind ADP, Mendy, and TJ....and I already wasted a starting spot with Mendy on Thurs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgilkey513 6 Posted December 13, 2009 I have Charles in there for LT right now. LT is at DAL and he\'s due for a 12 carry 38 yard no TD kind of day. I feel like SD will be passing alot. Charles has been consistent in getting me at least a few points, and is less likely to lay an egg like LT. with that said, I predict LT will have multiple goalline touchdowns and screw me again.

Jaxie 0 Posted December 14, 2009 Played him cuz I had Slaton, Westbrook, and Portis all go down this year. Thank God for late season pick ups that work out. Semi-finals here I come! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan 59 Posted December 14, 2009 With Slaton on IR, and Turner banged up, I really didn't have a choice. I've been going with him for three weeks now. I have no complaints really. I would like Turner back, though, because Norwood is my only other option at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surferskin 30 Posted December 14, 2009 How was this even a question? He's the hottest RB in the league not named Chris Johnson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Busted by the Feds 9 Posted December 14, 2009 Charles is my kind of fantasy player. He still puts up numbers even with a crappy team ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plasma george 52 Posted December 14, 2009 How was this even a question? He's the hottest RB in the league not named Chris Johnson. Cause KC sucks, and they average 1TD per game. He had 20 points on 1 play, other than that, he had 110 yards = 11 points. You want that stat for the Playoffs ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How many TDs has Charles averaged a game since he's taken over? Here's his point totals since week ten in my PPR league: Week 10 - 27pts Week 11 - 27pts Week 12 - 25pts Week 13 - 12pts Week 14 - 32 pts Yeah, I was terrified to start him in the playoffs.

donhaas 18 Posted December 14, 2009 I played him over DeAngelo Williams. Thank you for the recommendation donhaas. Did you advance in your playoffs?? I started him over nobody because I was dumb enough to draft S. Slaton ..... I love this kid! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PPR has his numbers about 10 points higher than Standard Scoring. I'm not convinced to start him against CLE (saw how they crunch Pitss offense), and than at CIN for Week 16. (unless you have no other options) I have to choose between him, Mendy and TJ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JT 137 Posted December 14, 2009 PPR has his numbers about 10 points higher than Standard Scoring. I'm not convinced to start him against CLE (saw how they crunch Pitss offense), and than at CIN for Week 16. (unless you have no other options) I have to choose between him, Mendy and TJ. Man, Pittsburgh is a team in disarray, and it culminated when Ward called out Roethlisbeger. That game was Clevelands Super Bowl, and they did well, but the Steelers also never committed to a ground game. Browns on the road? Charles is the man. Not crazy about the matchup @ Cincy, but imo this week he's a better option than Mendy vs GB. The Packers are playing for something. The Steelers are theoretically playing for pride, but they haven't shown much of that this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
