    I have 4 RBs on my roster:

    Corey Dillon (vs Buffalo)
    Stephen Davis (vs Minnesota)
    Mewendle Moore (vs Carolina)
    Jerome Bettis (vs Baltimore)

    I'm leaning towards starting Corey and Stephen. I know Mewendle won't be getting much rushing yards but he has good recieving yards. Jerome may have to be the third down back but with the Ravens defense pretty weak, Willie may get the major points. But I was concerned about Dillons injury. He is listed questionable but I want to start him because of the Buffalo's run defense is really bad. Davis is the guy I want to start but I'm afraid DeShaun Foster might steal some TD's in the short yardage goal line situations.

    Any opinions?

    I would defintly go with Dillion and Davis. Moore is going up a top 5 run defense. Bettis could potential have a TD, but i think a lot of carries will go 2 Parker

    Dillon for sure and I would go with Moore. He seems to have the hot hand of the other 3. Davis is struggling as of now and Bettis may not see many carries. Moore will see his carries and his passes so he'll get his yards. Dillon is a must though.

    Definately Dillon because he is coming off a bye wek, and he is a much better player than Lamont Jordan and he carved the Bills defense last week. As long as they get him the ball he will have a 125 yard day and a couple of scores maybe.

    Also Davis, I like what he has been doing this year and they may come out running to open up holes for Smith

    Bettis. Baltimore run D is not that impressive.

    Go with Bettis and Dillon, Davis has shown me nothing this year and Moore needs one more week to show what he's got.

    I wouldn't start Bettis for sure... he never plays well against the Ravens.

    Davis was banged up so that's a little iffy. But if he plays, he'll have a good game.

    Dillon hasn't played well all season. If he's healthy, he should do ok because the Bill rushing defense has sucked since they lost Spikes.

    Moore is a good option because he catches a lot of passes and is their #1 back.

    Tough call, I guess Davis & Dillon are as good of combination as any.

    How about this quandry.....

    Portis @ Giants

    C. Williams @ 49ers

    McGahee @ New England

    F. Taylor @ St. Louis

    Every defense is bottom 10 against the run.

    No

    I lost because:
    Santana Moss
    Jimmy Smith
    Amani Toomer
    Baltimore

    I had a good matchup because:
    Ben Roethlisberger
    Corey Dillon
    Stephen Davis
    Tony Gonzalez
    Jay Feely

    I had to start Baltimore because Indianapolis was on bye. I lost because I was going up against Antonio Gates, Jake Plummer, and Giants defense alone!!!

    The score was 88-82.
