Matt Forte or Arian Foster. Pick 1. I NEED YOU!!

Well guys. How is it possible for me to be this fricked with these two studs??
I've decided to start CJ Anderson as my RB1 and can only start 1 other RB (no flex and non-PPR)
Matt Forte is playing against the Detroit Lions with nothing to play for and Jimmy Clausen starting at QB (there'fore Detroit will probably stack the box the whole game)
Detroit has the 3rd best def against the run.
Arian Foster is playing against the Baltimore Ravens with nothing to play for and Tom Savage starting at QB (again.. Baltimore will most likely just stack the box and force the shite QB to throw)
Ravens have the #1 best def against the run.
How is it possible that my two fricking studs both play the best fantasy defenses with shitty backup QBs??
WHY ME?!?!?!?!

yeh this sucks but I'm telling you the horrible backup QB angle isnt all bad. Forte and Foster will both see increased touches. I would go Foster I think

Forte. Clausen may be a check down fool. Screens to relieve pressure, etc.

Did you watch Forte's first game against the Lions? It was pretty brutal.
I'd obviously prefer not to sit either but if I had to I'd go Foster.

I dont the Bears have committed to the run all season. In that case, Foster since Keenum has played with Foster last season.

I don't trust foster at all, I'd go with forte just because foster breaks his damn leg every other game

Id go with Matt, but picking an RB2 is not my forte

Fthat's a tough one. Forte is the better back imo but has a very tough matchup. I would bet most of his points come through check downs and screens. I like fosters chances against the colts better. Texans will try to keep the colts offense on the sidelines as much as possible which means more touches for foster.

That's where his points always come from.

Foster
Forte has been bad in the running dept of late. Won't help you a ton if it's non-PPR. Look at it this way, who's a better bet to get 100+ total yards and a TD? I'll put my money on Foster

Forte
I think Chi will get behind early and he'll end up with 50+ yards receiving.

Foster. He's had poor QB play most of the season and still produces.
I dont think Forte will be much of a beneficiary of Clausen starting as others are saying (ie more check downs, screens, etc.). The Bears have been doing that all season, and I don't think it will increase just because Clausen is starting.
Not to mention, Foster is no stranger to checkdowns and screens. He definitely doesn't get as many as Forte, but still a decent bit. Foster has 54 tgts on the season and 4 receiving TDs (which is more than Forte).
The matchups are terrible, but I prefer Foster

I think you're looking at last week's matchups... HOU has a terrible matchup too. Expect stacked boxes from BAL daring Lewis/Keenum to throw. If they have time.

Indy did that last week and foster still got 100 yards
He's matchup proof IMO
Plus Texans have a solid defense. Chicago will get blown out. All it takes is a few Watt sacks/fumbles and Foster is within scoring distance

Indy has one of the worst rushing defenses though
Baltimore is #1 against the run (from a fantasy standpoint)

Tough call man. Both are great backs but as mentioned, are dealing with tough defenses. Forte would be my call.
