If Sproles is out tonight, would you start Ingram or Rod Streater at flex in a 1/2 ppr league?

Yikes. Those are your choices?

N.O. should get up big and give the ball to Ingram late to try to build on his recent semi-success. Ingram is the better play.

yep 12 team league, Fred Jackson, Cooper, and McCoy all on bye. Then I had Julio and David Wilson. Hell I'm lucky to be 6-5, just hoping to escape this week. Thanks for the help.

How do you think Pierre fits into this game? I've been debating whether to start Sproles or Pierre tonight with Sproles being a little banged up. I've played Sproles most of the year because it is a 1 point PPR league and Pierre hasn't even cracked my lineup. FWIW I think Ingram is available if you can pursuade me that he will be better than Pierre going forward, I may drop Pierre and pick up Ingram.

Nah, I'd keep PT. Who are your other options. PT might end up being a good play this week.

Have you been paying attention at all this year? In PPR leagues, Pierre is the #10 overall scoring running back . He has proven to be a much better play than Sproles all season. Give the man his due. He is the best Saints back to own.

If Sproles is out, I can see him rushing for 60 and catching 6 passes for 50 yards. That's 17 points right there. And if he can get in the endzone your solid RB1 numbers just became great RB1 numbers.

PT all day.

Thomas has 51 rec on the year, only four less than Danny Woodhead. He's proven to be a top 10 back in PPR formats.

You guys are right, I just checked it and Pierre is the 14th ranked running back and Sproles is the 16th ranked running back in my league right now. I drafted both of them because of pass catching ability since it's 1 PPR. When I drafted I really didn't want to hold too many Saints running backs other than Sproles becausee you never know who is going to have a big day in our offense but as you pointed out Pierre has been solid. If we didn't have return yards added in there Sproles would be even further down the list. Sproles is going to the bench and Pierre is starting. I appreciate your help.

Im thinking Ingram will have a Dallas like game while we save PT and Sproles for next week.Failcons D-line like swiss cheese at stopping the run.
