Let me see Addai do something on a more consistent basis + do it against a team more formidable than Houston, then I'll be able to make a decision. I'd go with Peterson for now; but I'll certainly say Addai looked great on Sunday.
It's still not even close in APs favor, plus Addai will probably get hurt again like he always does
Dude from here on out Addai has a good shot to beat AD in overall numbers and in PPR my money is on Addai all the way....sorry.
Don't be sorry, it's OK if you think that Addai will be better from here on out because he had ONE decent game. Aside from AP's cup cake playoff schedule the bottom line is that AP is the better talent and has a better O line I'll take those odds any day over a guy who has one good game all season.
Trade deadline is over in both my leagues, but as an Addai owner my main concern would be the rest of my league mates crying collusion.This thread has to be
You go ahead and do just that. Your disregarding Addai's TD history in regards to this one year. With Manning finally getting his act together in the passing game, if Addai stays healthy with that favorable schedule he has, no reason he shouldn't put up great numbers.
True that!
UMM.. Manning has been playing well last few weeks and Addai has started last 3 games.. He had 2 terrible games and 1 good game vs the Texans... Addai might be in the top 10 (thats a big maybe) rest of the year but Adrian is in the top 5 with out a doubt.
UMMM that's your INTERPRETATION of how well Manning has done in the last few weeks my friend. To me, he's JUST NOW beginning to shake off the rust and get his timing with his WRs down thus returning to the Manning of old.Everyone on here seems to have short memories of Addai's prolific TD history and what that Colts offense is capable of doing when they are in rhythm and everything is clicking on all cylinders. But to each his own I guess

I'm not sure it is. It might not even be the most ridiculous thing posted in the Shark Pool today.This thread has to be
I didn't say he doesn't have an opportunity to put up some good numbers but everyone getting a hard on about one good game just like with Lynch need to temper their enthusiasm a little bit, if he does it two or three weeks in a row then maybe you have an argument. Plus Addai isn't even in the same ballpark in terms of talent that AP is, I garuntee if you asked 100 Addai owner to trade him straight up for AP right now 90+ would do it and almost no AP owners would go the other way.
And those numbers could have been even BETTER. Manning is just now starting to REALLY click with his WRs and Addai has begun to to get his full strength and conditioning back nevermind his timing. The OL is finally showing real signs of life in pushing guys off of the line of scrimmage.Did you expect Addai to return and tear it up after being out for so long? I didn't, and knew if he could get completely healthy he could return to being the Colts TD scoring machine that he has been in the past.I feel the patient Addai owners are about to be rewarded with a scoring explosion as witnessed in the Texans game. Like I said his schedule is very favorable and it looks like he's finally back.From here on out I think he can put up comparable AP numbers and in PPR I give him the edge.umm my INTERPRETATION of Manning the previous 2 weeks 2 WEEKS PRIOR Manning went for 21-29 254 2 td's no picks - What an awful gamethen 21-40 240 3tds no picks- even worse, clearly Manning has not been playing well and Addai ran for 32 and 34 with a ypc of 2.2..

The question is who does better going forward right? Did I ever debate the talent level? No doubt AP is the better talent but I feel too many have dismissed Addai and what he is capable of doing in that Colts offense.Oh and if AP owners can have a hard on going forward, then why can't LT and Addai owners?
He MIGHT do that, but you have made assumptions about Manning raising his game to another level (beyond where he has been the last few weeks) and that Addai has fully recovered and will outperform for the balance of the year. ADP doesn't have such contingencies and is therefore a better risk straight up than Addai.And those numbers could have been even BETTER.

And you have made the assumption like many on here that AP is a LOCK to outperform Addai in the coming weeks.

Fair enough. Your view is probably in the vast minority. If you have ADP, you could trade for Addai plus a solid #2 WR or something like that. Good luck.You shouldn't be surprised that you can convince people based on one game against the Texans. Look at what happened to the "Timmy Hightower is ELITE" fans just a couple of games after he put up good numbers against a bad Rams defense.You may be right but only time will tell.That's why they play the games my friend Ask the people who said the Pats were a lock too
"Timmy" doesn't have the history that Addai has in the NFL either right? Bad comparison if you ask me.Fair enough. Your view is probably in the vast minority.

Well, I'm trying to do a real comparison Addai just went straight up for Westbrook in my league. Not sure if the Westy owner gave up, or if Addai really will be the better play the rest of the season. I'd be more worried about this weeks game with SD"Timmy" doesn't have the history that Addai has in the NFL either right? Bad comparison if you ask me.Fair enough. Your view is probably in the vast minority. If you have ADP, you could trade for Addai plus a solid #2 WR or something like that.

1) Jacksonville's D isn't very good.2) How did ADP do against Chicago at home last season? 3) Detroit may be the worst team to grace the NFL since the turn of the century.4) Arizona is decent, but nothing like Baltimore or Pitt.5) Atlanta is much like Arizona. With studs, the matchup don't hurt as much. Now that ADP has clearly religated Chester to the bench, he's way more valuable than Addai.
But from this point forward I still think Addai is in a situation to hang with AP only because of the Colts offense as a whole. Sure over the course of a season AP is the chosen one but we are talking the few games left in the season here.Oh and remember, this isn't the same Colts offense in recent years where they are resting players down the stretch games here.INDY WILL BE FIRING ON ALL CYLINDERS AT ALL TIMES! Oh yeah and hmmm Addai may be the better value down the stretch regardless because he could be acquired much more cheaply than AP for the FF playoffs 
At least that's what I did
