    Very important week for me...Who's My Flex...
    With Trent Rich on by I have these options

    Probably going with Leshoure @ Minn...

    also have Stewart at home vs Den
    Pierre Thomas vs Atlanta
    Austin @ Philly

    VERY disappointed with the lack of carries from Thomas on Monday. Thought he would be the perfect flex option when I picked him up. Thought Stewart had potential to be a number 2 back. Got alot of carries vs Chicago but no so much last week. He's the best running back on that team and it confuses me why he doesn't get the bulk of the carries.

    I'd go with LeShoure. He's got the best matchup. Minnesota started the season off as a strong run defense, but the past 4 weeks they've been horrible against the run.

    Pierre simply doesn't get enough touches, he is splitting carries evenly with two other backs. Not to mention he plays in a pass-first offense. JStew is now the lead back, but he still loses goal line carries to Cam and Tolbert (if he's back from concussion). Austin would be my second choice, but Philly's strong suit is in their secondary.

        Very surprised with how badly the Minn run D has tanked. I thought the LSH big game was a fluke, then Martin embarrassed Vikings at home, then Lynch (which wasn't as big of a surprise). I'm just afraid this isn't as great of a matchup as it seems. I think Leshoure is very talented and is the number 1 back which makes me lean towards him. Agree on Thomas and Stewart. Before last week, I thought Thomas and Stewart would both establish themselves as number 1 back for the time being but it seems not.

          The one graet thing about LeShoure, is you know the defense won't be scheming against him. They will always be scheming against Calvin Johnson and the Lions pass game. LeShoure usually see's soft boxes too, rarely do the Lions see an 8-man front. The only thing that worries me about LeShoure of Bell stealing snaps.

                            I think you gotta go with Leshoure as well. He is a TD machine and they may run more with Calvin banged up.
