Which RB will gain the most yards in XLI? (1 Viewer)

[J-Rock]

I saw this on NFL.com and was currious to see what this crowd thought.

I voted Benson. I think Indy's backs will have a really tough time against the Bears front 7 and it will be hard for the colts to take the ball out of a Manning's hands.

Based on Benson's size vs. the smaller D of the colts I like his chances of breaking some tackles and picking up yards after contact.

Having said that I wouldn'y be at all suprised to see Benson soften them up and Jones break a few big ones.

Thoughts?

Here are the prop lines for all four players at sportsbook.com:

Joseph Addai - Rushing over/under 65.5, receiving over/under 21.5 = 87 total yards

Dominic Rhodes - Rushing over/under 47.5, receiving over/under 19.5 = 67 total yards

Thomas Jones - Rushing over/under 80.5, receiving over/under 10 = 90.5 total yards

Cedric Benson - Rushing over/under 53.5, receiving over/under 4.5 = 58 total yards

Slight edge to Thomas Jones over Joseph Addai according to these prop bets, but my money would be on Addai.

I'm going with Jones. I think Chi will mix it up with the 2 backs, but Jones could very well do a ton of damage in the passing game. Plus, if Benson beats up on the Indy D with physical running early (as he did vs NO) Jones should see some nice running lanes. He can hit big plays that way.

Worst run defense in the league versus the Bears...take it to the Bank...but good luck picking the correct Bear.

I look for Jones to account for 85 yards and 14 of the Bears 17 points in a losing effort.

Colts 27

Bears 17

Addai 35 yards

Rhodes 52 yards

Benson 35 yards

At least I'm bold!

Total yards - Addai.

Jones is the most likely. Colts generally have more problems with cut-back runners than power runners. Also, I don't know which Colts RB will get the best running numbers in this game, either - but I'm pretty sure Jones will be the Bear that gets the most yards.
