    My squad:


    Rodgers, Aaron QB GB
    Brown, Ronnie RB MIA
    Jacobs, Brandon RB NYG
    Colston, Marques WR NO
    Nicks, Hakeem WR NYG
    Davis, Buster WR SD TEN
    Hernandez, Aaron TE NE
    Bironas, Rob K TEN
    Rams DST

    BENCH
    Kolb, Kevin QB PHI
    Stafford, Matthew QB DET
    Blount, LeGarrette RB TB
    Greene, Shonn RB NYJ GB
    Stewart, Jonathan RB CAR
    Johnson, Steve WR BUF
    Jets DST GB

    I'm the lowest scoring team in a 12 man league and have gotten lucky and am tied for 1st place. There is no way I can this team taking me the championship. We start the playoffs in week 12, with 6 getting in and I'm a game up on the 4th place team. I've proposed a trade to guy who had Romo:

    R. Brown and Rodgers for Steven Jackson

    Do I roll the dice and ride Stafford as far as he takes me with a balanced attack or rely of the runningbackless Rodgers and my stable of mediocrity?

    I think I may do it

    no way. elite QB's are the only givens in fantasy week to week. you have enough capable RB's.

    That is a solid point, thanks.

    But my thinking is that Steven Jackson is one of the few RBs that get the entire load and the Rams are in the mix and will rely on him more and more down the stretch. Plus I think he has a favorable schedule: CAR, bye, SF, ATL, DEN, ARZ, NO, KC

    Stafford's schedule:WASH, NYJ, BUF, DAL, NE, CHI, GB, TB
    Rodgers' schedule: NYJ, DAL, bye, MIN, ATL, SF, DET, NE

    I personally like Stafford's chances and him having Megatron and Rogers not having Finley is a big deal.

    In my league, only 60 or so pts is the dropoff b/w Rogers and Shaun Hill.



    But in agreeing with your stance, Rodgers has no real running game and it's basically all on his rocket arm. I'm torn, but I just don't see my team going far unless I make some major move to shore up my RB position.
