    What R.B. should I bench?

    I need to bench two

    C.J. Spiller
    Demarco Murray
    Green-ellis
    Michael Bush
    Ben Tate



    I'm thinking of keeping Tate on the bench. Keeping C.J..

    So I guess it's between the other three on which one to bench.

    Well your definitely not starting Tate. And your definitely not sitting Spiller. DeMarco should start for you every week as well. I'd go with Bush over BJGE. Bush should get all the carries with Forte out, and STL's defense is pretty soft. Bush should be able to get close to 100 yards with a TD. Wouldn't be surprised at all if Bush scored more than Spiller or DeMarco based on his matchup. Don't forget that Bush filled in real nice last year when DMC was out.

    Yea, that's why I picked up Bush, but Ellis did really good last year and he's been running about 100 yards a game, but hasn't gotten luck getting in the red zone yet. Kind of hard to bench Ellis. Also the over on the Wash/Cincy game is steaming up to 50 making me think of more scoring?

    Who knows.

    I'd probably go with tate and bush since they aren't the primary backs on their team

    tampa has been pretty good at stuffing the run....so murray may be a sit option...normally though i'd say bush and tate, but since bush has the rams on tap you cant really go wrong, even if you bench ellis

    I felt the same way about Murray, also he played a poor game in Seattle. Hard to bench him though lol

    benching Tate and Law Firm. Sucks since Ellis have been getting about 100 yards per game and the O/U is 49!!!!

    It's not that tough of a call. Bush is a top 10 RB this week. Play Spiller, DeMarco and Bush with confidence. All three of those guys should have monster games this week.

    Yea, that's what I thought. Thanks. Ellis has been playing great though and the over/under is 49, but yea, I hear you. I'm taking Bush.

    Nice problem to have. How is your WR situation? Maybe trade a RB for a WR upgrade.
