Forte is a consideration to sit because the Jets run defense is awesome, but c'mon, it's Matt Forte. I'm not going near Ridley and would probably try to trade him if I were you because that backfield is an enigma. Like Bradshaw because the Jags suck, but Richardson still exists. I'd start Bernard, Forte, and Sproles. EDIT: Reports that Martin's not going to play tonight against the porous Falcons run defense. Start your Rainey's! Bradshaw over Forte. There is no way Richardson keeps his starting role as long as Bradshaw is playing the way he is. wrongwrongwrong do not bench your first round pick for ahmad bradshaw. bench somebody else. Ehem | ||

Someone should probably get benched for Bradshaw considering you probably drafted him low or picked him up off the waiver wire, but it shouldn't be your first round pick.

I was pretty sold on Bradshaw. The only lineup change i was close to considering prior the lineups locking was subbing in Sproles for Forte. | ||

Yeah no I agree with not benching Forte, and afterwards I saw his other two options were Bernard and Sproles. I would definitely bench one of those guys for Bradshaw, probably Bernard since Sproles has so much upside. | ||

Weird I remember the same injury argument with Forte the past 2 seasons. That's irrelevent neither is currently injured. The problem I see here is you're willing to start a RB because of his name and draft status instead of what the fact he's playing against a good run stopping defense and has been playing worse than someone who went in the 15th. | ||

Yes, I'm wiling to do it when it's only Week 3 we're looking at. If this persists and we're in Week 7, then I'm taking a longer look at it. But now, I'm not going to overreact to such a small number of games. If I had taken Forte and had this decision to make, I know I took him for a very sound reason and wouldn't lose sleep that playing him didn't work out. | ||
