YAFFT: Too many running backs, who to start?

[Mr N8]

I've got Portis and Edge starting for sure. I have one more spot for Jamal Lewis or Corey Dillon. Lewis is against Pittsburg and Dillon is against Arizona. Any tips would be more than welcome.

 

[SpunkyJones]

I'd go with Lewis, he's the stronger back, he's going to bounce back from the poor week 1 performance and the Ravens are more of a running team than my beloved Pats.

A toss up, I'd take Dillon because AZ's d sucks but Lewis will run the ball more and comprises a higher % of Ravens' total O moreso than Dillon.

I'd play Lewis. He has a better chance to score and gets more touches. Brady spreads it around a lot in the red zone. Plus Jonathon Ogden comes back for Baltimore this week which will really help Jamal.

Jamal is a better running back and 9 times out of 10, I would start him.
But looking at the matchups, Dillon's team will probably be ahead the whole game, they'll try and run the clock, and Dillon's backup is not suiting up, which also means more carries for him.

OK, 1 more question...McNair or Vick for starting at QB?

I hate the Eagles but gotta say go with McNair.

Dillon this week but Lewis from than on. As for your QB I would go with McNair as Vick is still learning the offense.

McNair plays for Tennessee. If it was McNabb, no question I would be starting him this week.

ok my turn (not to hijack the thread...)

Farve (vs Chicago) or McNabb (vs Minnesota)?

 

[CTrain]

ANother vote for Dillion.
Pitt's run defense looks tough in the 1st week.

As much as my Packer fan instincts say to take Favre, I would go with McNabb. That's going to be a high energy, high scoring game, and McNabb should pick apart Minn's defense.

Well, I hate the Cowboys, but it isn't going to stop me from starting Peyton Manning this week!

 

[geecee]

Start Lewis. Start McNabb. BTW, how the hell do you have a team that has Edge, Portis, Lewis and Dillon? And you have Vick & McNabb as well? Is this a 4 team league?

EDIT: Read wrong post/QB names. Go with McNair.
