WR Nicks vs PHI
RB Foster vs NYJ
RB Turner vs STL :headscratch:
TE Tamme
flex R Rice vs CAR

Bench
s Greene vs HOU
D Woodhead vs IND

Im worried about Turner I was thinking about playing Snelling in his place or even Woodhead vs IND.. Or I can really mix it up and put Rice in his place and grab Holmes off waivers dropping M Thomas....What do you guys think>>

Wait a minute. You are worried about Turner so you think a better option would be to go with his backup even though Turner is not injured?

You've got good reason to be worried about Turner. The Rams are second in the NFL in preventing rushing touchdowns (3 all season) and are holding similiar running backs on similiar teams to under 100 yards (Ryan Mathews only racked 70) and on average hold runningbacks under 100 yards. Lone exception was Run DMC. However given your options you should still start him. Turner > Greene.

Thanks for the input maybe Im just paranoid, But it seems to me when they go up against a top tier run defense Snelling is used more in the passing game. I guess well see.

Overlooking some thing here.

On your bench you have s. Greene vs Minn. Am I to assume that this is Shonn Greene?

Shonn Greene is playing at home vs Hou and is a better start than any of your other listed options.

Greene had 20 carries last week for 72 @ Cleveland and faces a much softer Hou. defense.

Jets are gonna go easy on LT as they near the post season and Greene will carry the load. Just a hunch, mind you, but if you aren't going to start Turner then I'd go Greene.
