Who finishes stronger?

Stewart...

Ivory hasn't looked that good all season long minus the odd carry and Thomas, Bush will be back to full speed at some point which is going to make him even more hit and miss

I do agree that Thomas coming back will have a negative effect on Ivory, Bush has no effect on him as Ivory is general only in on 1st and 2nd down. However, Ivory has looked great this year that guy is battering ram, he is a very hard runner with size and decent speed, to say he hasn't looked that good is absurd. If he had been given the chance to run all year he would probably be in the Offensive ROY conversation.

I'll go Ivory but I think it's close.

I have both guys and will likely go with Stewart at flex this week. Depending on how this week goes, I may swap them out for the playoffs but I'm thinking Stewart will be the better play.

He's at least going to split carries with Goodson and lwould seem likely get the goal line touches.

I don't think that's right.I'm keeping Stewart around since he faces Arizona in Week 15. We all saw what happened with Arizona's run defense last night and they're ranked 32nd against RBs.Ivory plays Baltimore in Week 15 and Baltimore is the 4th toughest against RBs. I only know that since I have Thomas stashed on my roster as well but at this point I wonder why. He (nor Ivory) likely won't ever play for me.

Stewart. It's just him and Goodson for touches in the Carolina backfield. Plus, I think he's the more talented RB.

In New Orleans, Ivory will have to contend with Thomas and Bush if they're healthy. Even if they're not he still has to contend with Julius Jones (who got 10 carries against the Cowboys) and maybe Betts too.

I'd give Ivory a slightly better chance to score some short TDs by virtue of New Orleans having the vastly superior offense. But I feel better about Stewart getting double-digit carries each week going forward barring injury.

The Panthers play Pittsburgh in Week 16.
