thoughts? Start Forte. I'd bench him for an RBBC type with a strong matchup such as Leon Washington, but not for a question mark on a team that hasn't scored much at RB all season.

Would you bench Forte for MJD (vs. Detroit) and Jacobs (vs. Philly)? I did.

Appreciate the suggestion. It's a tough call tho. I see TEN stacking the box against Sexy Rexy and the G-Men are running very hot right now.

BTW, there's no chance I sit Forte for Torain.

Pancho,

Does the "one career yard" go on your stat sheet this week if you start Torain? Many put too much emphasis on what happened in the past to define what is going to happen now. I do not think you are nuts to bench Forte (I have him on every single NFFC team) this week for Torain. I am not saying I would do it.. but you are definately not nuts. Torain is not in the position he is now without showing he has great talent. If Young is hurt and Torain is going to be the main man, I would serously consider rolling with him tonight over Forte who will need to score a TD to have much value Sunday.
