Denver tough against the run, but again, its Thursday offense explosion.

Leaning Vereen, but tempted to roll the dice with Oliver.

But its Thursday offense fest.

Oliver could get a ton of touches...

what's your scoring, fricknut?

if PPR, on paper that will be Oliver's meal ticket this week. Would still prob lean Vereen.

if its a standard league, id def go Vareen.

I'm in the same boat but I think it is a coin flip. On one side you have Vereen who did really well last week, but then you never can trust bill. The other side you have Oliver who has the potential to have a great game and is the only serviceable back in San diego. If they get down early I expect a lot of dump offs from rivers, and Oliver is explosive in the open field. Like I said coin flip man but I'm Rollin with Oliver.

The Bears have a terrible run defense tho. Evens it out.

You're right the Bears run D is terrible and the secondary is depleted, which is the perfect matchup for the two headed monster that Vereen is. You just never know how he is going to be used week to week. I had a gut feeling to start him last week and it paid off, I just don't feel he gets the touches this week. I have no evidence to support this just MHO.
