START or SIT week 7 RBs





START:


Justin Forsett is at home this week VS Atlanta.  Atlanta's run Defense is HORRIBLE.  They  have given up 140 yards per game to the RB position and have given up 12 rushing tds this season.  It doesn't get much worse than that.  Bernard Pierce has proved to everyone this year that he can not, will not, and will never be an effective running back in the NFL.  Forsett has been nothing short of spectacular this year.  I think Forsett is in for a big fantasy game, especially in PPR formats 




Fred Jackson could be a sneaky play this week.  I expect him to carry the ball 15 times and be targeted 5-8 times.  Minnesota's run D is nothing spectacular, and dome defenses tend to play a little sloppy outside.  CJ Spiller is a MESS, and I don't see him stealing to many carries from Jackson.  I predict Buffalo have a sizeable lead in this game and will be running the ball as much as possible in the 2nd half..  If you have him, he makes a good RB2 or Flex option this week.




SIT:


Matt Asiata/ Jerrick McKinnon. The two headed monster get an extremely difficult Buffalo Run Defense this week at Buffalo.  They may split carries 50/50, maybe its a 75/25 split, nobody knows, regardless, neither of these two will produce this weekend.  Leave them on the bench, I would start Isaiah Crowell or even Storm Johnson over either.  This game is setting up for a blowout, bench them.


Stacy/Cunningham/Mason.  This position is wide open today on who is where this weekend on the depth chart.  Its a headache, they are playing Seattle, the risk is not worth the reward.  Even if Stacy gets 15 carries, I don't think he can even scrounge 70 yards with it.  Like I said Tuesday, Tre Mason will be the guy at some point soon, just not this weekend.  Avoid the Rams runners this week like Ebola
