Guys, i got a question. I see everybody saying to sit out Frank Gore this week against Baltimore. The only other option I got at RB is Brian Leonard who plays Arizona this week and Maurice Jones Drew. Which 2 do I start?
anyone saying bench Gore against the Ravens is an idiot and doesn't understand fantasy sports in general. Frank Gore is one of the elite players in fantasy football and is a good play every week. A great player in a tough matchup will always be a better play than a mediocre player in a good matchup.
he hasn't been elite this year and running backs are the most affected by the quality of the opposing defense. I'd probably still start Gore in most cases, but you're the idiot here for spewing that crap. tell matt pitzer he doesn't know fantasy football. http://www.profootballtalk.com/WeekFiveStartandSit.htm
Ravens defense is getting old quick. But they can still stop the run. That being said, you still cannot bench your number one back. I played Edge against the Ravens and was glad I did, 77 yards and a TD, not great, but not bad either.
If you had a decent alternative option, I would tell you to bench Gore because SanFran is not going to do much against Baltimore. However, Brian Leonard is not a decent option. Start Gore and MJD.
