Saints RB Projections

by Santo from Smithfield on Dec 10, 2008 1:20 AM CST

I hate to be the loser who asks for advice about fantasy football, but i must.

I own both Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas. The league I am in is a PPR (point per reception). This obviously increases reggie bush's value. Pierre is the goal line beast...so his value is up there too.

Which player do you think will put up better stats this Thursday at Chicago? Chicago has done a good job this year of shutting down runningbacks in the passing game. They also have the 6th best rush defense.

also...what do you guys think of Colston? Last year him and Brees made me want to watch the Saints and now they are one of my favorite NFL teams.

PPR league has to be Bush

I own both of them too, in a keeper league. I’m in the semi’s this week. Won last week by starting them both, sitting Ryan Grant. Conventional wisdom says this is stupid but it really is only if both players end up sucking. Still a gamble but in this case I think it has a lot of upside. The Saints are not likely to be shut down, all 3 and outs. If they get behind, they’ll be short passing like crazy to both Reggie and Pierre and in a PPR league that’s gold, right? Do it. Start them both.

yeah start bush...

despite the votes here we know Bush is going to score somehow some way. I think the Bears remember what Thomas did to them last week and Payton is using these last few games to see where he’s going to be next season so he’ll probably get the first few carries allowing Bush to come in later on the low.

Don't worry I got your back cuz...
