RB Help

For Weeks 14 through 16 (playoffs), Beanie Wells or Johnathan Stewart?

Is 'neither' an option? If I had to make a choice though, Wells, Stewart has a bad schedule to compound all the other issues.

Im assuming hes gone, but is westbrook available?

[SpeedyG]

Ideally, I wouldn't need either one so I'll have the "neither" option, but my #2 RB is Joseph Addai, and with questions on whether he'll be back for the playoffs. I need some kind of contingency plan. There's really not a lot of options out there.

Wells and Stewart are probably the "top" backs left, unless I want to roll the dice on injury fill ins such as Chris Ivory or even Anthony Dixon (if he gets goal line carries).

Can you make a decision for this week only? If Pierre Thomas doesn't go on Sunday, then I'd be more comfortable going with Ivory than Wells or Stewart.

If not, I think I'd go Stewart. Wells might have a better schedule but even in sweet matchups he's been just awful (I know, I own him). He can't hang on to the ball, and I just can't see him doing enough to keep Hightower at bay. At least Stewart looked good last week (and Cleveland actually has a decent run defense, and was probably actually trying to defend the run considering Clausen's overall awfulness).

I don't actually need help this week (already got my playoff spot secured), so really mainly looking for long-term insurance in case Addai can't get back for the league's playoffs (so just weeks 14-16).

What do u guys think for week 13 in PPR league:

Darren McFadden Vs SD
or
Fred Jackson Vs Min

Total Season Points could be riding on this week. I started DMC over FJax last week, and it didn't work out. Seems like a coin flip, but if someone could make an argument for one or the other it may help.

[ZedgetRedd]

Fred Jackson has the hot hand and just came off of a very good performance against the Steelers, where as McFadden has been terrible the past two weeks. I would go Jackson.

[SpeedyG]

Ended up dropping Wells for Stewart. Hope I made the right call.

[Dirty Water]

First and probably only problem is you have two offensive players from the Arizona Cardinals and Carolina Panthers. Change this.

Stewart, Ivory, or Westbrook this week? PPR.

[ZedgetRedd]

Ivory easy.

[SpeedyG]

Now in the Finals and need some more help. I was hoping that Addai would be back by now, but he still seems banged up and who knows if he's going to play against Oakland this Sunday. I basically need 2 RB spots, and the guys I have now are Foster, J. Stewart @ Pitt, and Rashad Jennings at home vs. Washington.

This is pretty much standard scoring cat, except we get .5 PPR. Do I roll the dice on Stewart against Pittsburgh's defense? Or risk going with Jennings against a suspect WAS defense (Jennings has 3 TDs in the last 4 weeks, plus 7 receptions plus yardage last week, good enough to get him over 10 points).

Only other available guys out there are the two Colt backups (Hart/Rhodes/James), Anthony Dixon, Maurice Morris @ Miami, Wells (meh), and the P/T guys like Kuhn, Snelling, etc.
