Hillis vs. L Johnson (1 Viewer)

Hillis - good blocker, goal line back, good receiver and Denver is going to be pass first. Tatum Bell isn't any of the aforementioned. ATL's pass D is a bit under-rated, having contained NO last week and ranked 8th overall in passing points allowed in 2008. I'm thinking Hillis could catch a bunch of short passes out of the backfield like in the Miami game where he caught 7 for 116. If he gets a goal line TD, he could be in for a 20+ point day...

LJ - coming off a 4 week layoff, KC's offense has gone spread, gonna been a ton of points put up by NO and I'm not sure how Herm will use LJ with Thigpen coming into his own. He could go for 100+ yds, 3-4 catches for 50 yds and 2TDs or be limited to a couple of handoffs for 40 yds and block the rest of the time.

Help talk me off the ledge cause I'm thinking Hillis is the better play but LJ's burned me before earlier this season... :thumbup:

 
Go with Hillis ... He has a lot more potential than LJ

I would pick up tatum bell too ... I could see them both going for 100 and a TD vs a soft Atlanta D

Now, that's really funny.But what's sad is that I'm looking at starting both of them.But I'm surprised that there hasn't been a real post started on Hillis' possible value, and what people are expecting from him as a starter?Atlanta, appalls me to say it, looked pretty good vs NO last week. But their defense was no great shakes.The question to me is whether Bell sneaks in there and gets some carries? It's a 12:00 CST start, tellyawhat if Bell is inactive I might just pick up Hillis and start him over Betts and White. But then, if Bell is active maybe he doesn't do much anyway. Could this be a shootout as a game and so maybe it's worth it?
