Pickett - What would you do?

Let's say Ryan is really borderline healthy.
Do you play him for best chance to win or rest him and let him heal?

Me? Bears do not run very well.
I rest Pickett but keep him on active roster just in case Bears start to shred the rooks.
I start and play Harrell with Muir getting snaps.

Benson is garbage, as is the rest of the Bear offense. Sit him.

Benson is out for the year, but I agree sit him ans see what Harrell can do.

D'Oh.

I actually like Peterson more than Benson anyway.

I say sit him till the playoffs that way he will most likely be 100% or close to it and that will be worth not playing him the last 2 weeks.

Maybe if Dallas loses Saturday night you play him. But I'd rather have him 100% in January.

Do you mind if I put up the game thread a bit early MD?

For whatever its worth, I was listening to Chris Havel on the radio last night. He's a bit of a tool but definitely always seems to have an ear close to whats going on. He said if he were a betting man he would say that Pickett does not play.

It's a groin injury, which is one of the most sensitive things an athlete can deal with. Suit him up, but wait a few series before deciding if he needs to play or not. I would rather have him at 100% in the playoffs than at 75% right now.

thats what i would say.... Otherwise sit him... Harrell can get a majority of the snaps, not like he is tired! Hasnt played at all this year. A chance to make a name for himself....

Plus they will move Jenkins to the inside so everything will be fine... They have been playing him there alot so it should be fine...
