Which two RB's should start?

Question

Okay, I have four RB's, and no they are not the most talented either, but they may be able to get the job done with injuries plaguing some teams.

Ray Rice (Ravens) vs Bengals (Willis is hurt)

Ronnie Brown vs NYJ (I think Ricky is starting, so might rule him out)

Steve Slaton (Houston) vs Steelers (He is starting this week)

Maurice Morris (Seahawks) vs Buffalo (Julius Jones starting???)

Thanks for any help, hard to play people that suck when you get caught in auto draft cause you work too much lol, go Army hooah!

Answer 1

willis is starting

Answer 2

Wow, I feel sorry for you.  Morris is the only starter so you have to start him.  Houston has already said that Slayton Green, and Taylor will split carries in week 1 so you can't start him. Rice could starts and against an awful defense he might be your best option although Brown and Williams are going to split.  I'd try and find out what is going to happen with McGahee and then start Rice or Brown with Morris.

Answer 3

I would start Slaton and Morris. Roll the dice! It's only week one.

Answer 4

I'd start Ronnie Brown and Maurice Morris.

Here's the ESPN breakdown on scoring for your RBs for week 1:

Ray Rice - 2 Points

Ronnie Brown - 8 Points

Steve Slaton - 2 Points

Maurice Morris - 10 Points

Rice is still going to play behind Willis even if he's hurt and Slaton has to split with 2 other backs.

Ronnie Brown will be OK. He looked good in Wednesday's practice.

The Seahawks will be good against a weak Buffalo D.

Hope that helps!

Answer 5

i would have to say definately R. Rice.... and either R. Brown or M. Morris.... Slaton is 50/50 whether he'll actually play or not.. Rice is looking really good this preseason... he'll be getting a little more than 50/50 carries over McGahee..... and i would presonally take R. Brown over Morris.. just because of the fact that he was the #1 RB in the first 5 weeks last year.. and i think he'll do better than Morris...
