Tough Fantasy Decision Need Suggestions.
Ok so its the first week of playoffs in my keepr league, we opted to avoid weeks 16 and 17 in fear of starters sitting and hence teams not being even. SO I have seriously the toughest decision Ive ever had in this league to date. I have 5 RB's that are considered starters and have been producing good, but no clue as to who to start. Heres my RBs with this week's match ups.
Ray Rice - Bal vs Pitt
LeSean McCoy - Phil vs. Hou
Darren McFadden - Oak @ SD
Brandon Jacobs - NYG vs. Was
Bengarvis Green-Ellis - NE @ NYJ
My only obvious starter in the group is LeSean McCoy this week. Im considering benching Ray Rice against the Steelers defense in favor of Jacobs and the Giants running game against the Redskins rush defense which is near the bottom of the league. I dont think Im starting Law Firm just because the Jets are so stingy against the run it would seem futile to start him. Which leaves me McFadden starting against SD who has a respectable rush d.
What do you guys think?

Well Green Ellis has had 3 TD's in his last 2 games but he will be facing the number 1 defense in terms of stopping the run (Jets have allowed the fewest points to running backs fantasy-wise).
Sit Jacobs, he hasn't done anything all year, let alone lately.
McFadden has had 18 touches combined since the bye week, and it doesn't look like it will get any better.
Rice hasn't been awesome, but at least he's been consistent getting double digit points.
How many RB's and WR's can you have? I'm assuming the basic 2 RB / 2 WR and 1 flex position.
I'd go with McCoy and Rice, and if you MUST play another RB, I guess you'd be better off with Green Ellis over Jacobs or McFadden.
Who are your receivers?

Give Williams another year and you won't be saying that and, I'm hoping in another year Ward retires(he's said he's done this season if the Steelers make it to the SB)
Rice almost always does well against Pittsburgh. They don't call Flacco Mr. Checkdown for nothing...he throws to Rice a ton in Steeler games, and Rice has been solid against the Steelers so far in his career. The only thing that you would have to worry about is if they decide to Spy him with Timmons...if that happens don't expect him to have much happen.
I personally agree with lobster...McCoy and Rice. McFadden got all his big games against shitty teams. Green-Ellis won't get much against the Jets, and Jacobs has played some seriously uninspiring football this season. Recievers I'd go MW, HW, and Ocho. None of them world breakers but they should all get yards. Both Ocho and Williams are playing teams that generally have high scoring games, and Hines Ward always plays well against the Ravens, should have a solid game with their seriously depleted secondary.

Well to make matters worse, i went to start him cuz the conditions in nY were horrible and it was going to be a running game. Well i was literally 10 seconds too late and couldnt change it. Oh well, Im down by less than 10 points with Rice and Ward to play tonight. Its gonna be close.
