Start Washington over Miller?? WHIR (1 Viewer)

[Phoenix212]

Like many of you, I am pumped to see what Dwayne Washington can do as the lead back for Detroit, especially against a weak Chicago team.  Am I crazy in thinking this guy can be a top 5 RB this week??  I am giving consideration to starting him over Lamar Miller but it feels sacrilegious to bench one of the most heavily used feature backs in the league.  All thoughts appreciated as I am likely overthinking this whole thing.  

Link to your post and I WHIR.

Safest move is sticking with Miller. I have DWash too but I'm holding him on my bench until I see he can produce at a top-level, which sucks because he may never have a better matchup than CHI...

Miller is getting 25+ touches a game.  I wouldn't sit him unless I had another RB1.

He does have a great matchup but don't outplay yourself, you start your studs and hope things settle out the way they are supposed to. If Miller has 10-15 and Washington goes off you might kick yourself a bit, but if you start Washington and he has a total dud and Miller does goes off (or even just does what he is supposed to), you're gonna be real mad at yourself.

Yeah I'd stick with Miller too you don't wanna over think this. Miller is getting so many touches and I know he is playing against that tough Titan D who is giving up the 2nd fewest fantasy points to RBs but Miller did still manage 14.7 ppr pts in a game they just got absolutely shut down in last week.

Miller. I think all this talk about Tennessee's run defense is absurd. Minnesota has padded those stats by having a terrible run offense so far. Oakland and Detroit got over 100 yards and neither of those teams has a back as capable as Lamar Miller. I think he will do just fine.
