Sproles & P Thomas (1 Viewer)

[Team Smokin']

Let's see the New Orleans Saints offensive juggernaut is going against the sorry *** Rams. Something tells me there will be a lot of points (at least 30+)and a lot of rushing yards (200 +). I would say both Sproles, and it looks like P Thomas (playing), will see more touches. Perhaps 3 scores between the two of them? Sproles looks like a great play. What about Pierre?

wow--love your profile pic. Other than that--who knows?? NO ia good because you never can guess where they're coming from...

Since I am a Sproles owner playing guy with Thomas, you can be sure Thomas gets the load. NO will be up big, early and often. Hope I am wrong.

If the Saints go up big early, they will probably try to get Ivory some reps. Not a ton, but enough to seriously cut into the other guys.

I have liked how P. Thomas has run this year, and while he is not finding the end zone, he is putting up usable numbers this year while he sits on the FFB bench waiting to pop. He has been a late season sleeper pick for me this year.

Didn't Sproles score in the fouth quarter last week during the blowout?

At this juncture of the season, it's quite evident that no one will ne taking touches away from Sproles ... it's pretty clear that Payton has a consisitent 10-15 plays scripted for him, regardless of opponent/score/etc. Through the first part of the season, he has given more "bang for the buck" than just about any player in the league. Considering his ADP, case can be made that he is the MVP of quite a few fantasy squads out there .... just ridiculous value.Ivory may be worked in, but not at the expense of the Mighty Mite

I want to say PT is the better play here b/c he can be the bruiser and a 3rd down back, but he's let me down a lot over the years. I'm plugging him in, but I'll hate Chris Ivory forever if he gets a goalline TD.

Sproles is beasting this year, he would challenge Deuce McCallister in his prime for playing time. I do like PT in garbage time and a little sprinkle of Ivory mixed in at the goal line.
