Championship Game: Cedric Benson or Kahlil Bell for 2RB?
- Thread starter Hav3n
- Start date
I want to say Bell, because the Cardinals D has a good shot at shutting down Benson, and the Packers have a tendency to leave gaping holes open for backs.
HOWEVER
The major concern here is that the Packers jump out to a huge lead and force the Bears to focus on the passing game from the first quarter on..leaving Bell with only a handful of touches.
EDIT: Id also worry about Nate Washington this week...malcolm floyd has a chance against the Lions secondary. But thats a close call again..man championship week is stressful

Question for you.
Broncos D against the Bills, or Chiefs D against the Raiders(who got 6 picks off Palmer and Co earlier this year)
Chiefs D has played everybody tough lately. The broncos D was exposed last week, although Fitzpatrick has been throwing int's all year. It's really a tossup.
I think even if the bears were losing big Bell could be a factor.
1.Bell is a decent receiving back.
2. The bears really have no other option at RB. He will be on the field A LOT. The bears don't run too many 0 back sets.
3. Caleb Hanie Sucks. You better believe he will go to his check down guys A LOT.
Obviously one down side is the redzone opportunities may be minimal.
Overall I'd go with Bell.

Benson in standard scoring, Bell in PPR
I'd go Floyd here and not think twice about it, Hasselsuck has lived up to his name lately and Munchak doesn't seem to realize that Locker is the best bet to get his flailing team into the playoffs. Lions are running out scrubs @ DB because of all our injuries, Vincent Jackson most likely to site. Floyd borderline top 10 WR this week.
Chiefs D is crushing last 6 games, top 5 D over that span, easy call Andrea.
Sucks so bad he got benched for McNown on Tuesday. Other than that, your post is spot on. Bell is going to be a checkdown machine, 5-8 catches, 100+ total yards as the Bears try to come back from huge deficit.
Good luck to everybody playing for money this weekend, I'm hoping to be $3500 richer come Monday.
you know what... I knew that. but... I am a bears fan. It is funny what mental blocks do to you when you feel so much pain.
But yeah, I think I found out tuesday. anyway, mccown, hanie, same difference. Maybe that's why I did not make an effort to remember. lol
I dodged a bullet benching the broncos D.
Sucks for whoever made it to the championship game in their leagues with Romo. Fantasy world is a cruel one.
