Who does better the rest of the season - struggling RB1s (1 Viewer)

[Binky The Doormat]

Top ADP RBs - all struggling ...for different reasons. Who does beter the rest of the way out?

Foster heals, kicks butt and doesn't have to share too much with Tate?

CJ2 stops counting his money and plays like he cares?

The PIT O line magically learns to block or Mendenhall quits tippy toeing and juking sideways behind the line instead of just running like he can.

I like the high side for Foster - should be best by far. But the dreaded hammy reoccurrance, half- games, etc.

I voted for Mendenhall, because he's done it with a poor line in the past.

I think its entirely possible that CJ2K just wasn't motivated in the offseason. It's also possible he just goes the route that plenty of other athletes have gone in the past. Once they get paid, they are a shell of their former selves. (Antonio Freeman, Albert Haynesworth, etc)

Foster has the best backup of the bunch, and hammy's are tricky. He could easily injure it again tomorrow and get shut down for another month.

Wow - dead even at 5 a piece ...thought this might be a tough one. Would love to hear more discussion.

Flip a coin.

I voted for Mende also. But who knows?

I voted for Foster, I think he's set to resume his spot as King of the RBs. And I'm a Mendenhall owner.

If not for his lingering injury situation and a more talented backup than the other two backs, I would have voted for Foster. I think CJ comes around so he got my vote.

Mendenhall makes a nice story (team pride, organizational strength, good coaching) but if you don't have the guys you don't have the guys.

I voted Foster (and I'm also a Mendenhall owner) because even if he's not 100% that line is pretty magical and the surrounding talent (Schaub, AJ, etc.) is pretty sweet, too.

Haven't seen the Titans this year.

Foster really starting to outpace here with Mendenhall eding CJ2K. I am beginning to think that CJ's deal is that he is simply not in game shape rather a heart thing. Granted, if Foster is totally healthy - I go there, but the hammy remains a risk all year long. When CJ gets in game shape, he seems like a much safter play.

It's because Foster isn't struggling--he's just been hurt. The other two backs appear to be totally healthy and are still unimpressive.

Foster's o-line is still in tact. If he's healthy, he's easily the best
