Flex: Lacy vs DET or Powell @ATL

DEF: BAL @MIA or BUF @CLE

Thanks in advance.

I think I'd go Vick, Lacy and BAL.

Well I didn't start the Bills DEF last night so I'm locked in the Raven's DEF vs Miami. I'm going to go with Vick at QB and I'm leaning towards Lacy at Flex. I think that the Green Bay/Detroit game has the potential to be a shootout (over/under of 53.5pts). I think that Lacy will get the majority of the carries (including goal line work) and since he's better in pass protection than Franklin, he'll see some time on 3rd downs as well. I'm worried that the Jets will get down early and be forced to throw the ball. Also with Ivory (injury) and Goodson (suspension) returning to practice, its getting crowded in the Jets backfield.

If anybody else has an opinion on the Lacy versus Powell debate, feel free to offer your 2 cents. I have a tough match-up this week going against Newton, Forte, A.J. Green, D. Bryant, J. Rodgers, Gates, Zuerlein & Miami DEF.

Thanks.

To who? Stephen Hill & Santonio Holmes are out this week.

Exactly my point. Its kind of like the MJD problem, I fear that Powell will have no help this week with the lack of weapons on the Jets side of the ball. With Lacy I feel pretty confident that he'll get me 60-80 yards and a TD, so he just feels like a safer choice.

Agreed - the ATL d isn't that good with all their injuries but they can still stack the box against the run since Geno will have no one to throw the ball to anyway.

Lacy for me... Who are you two RB that these are your flex options?

We start 1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WR, 1 RB/WR, 1 TE, 1 K & 1 DST.

I think Lacy's the right choice for the reasons you listed, and since the Packers are finally showing some rush blocking chops, and their OL is going to be super-motivated against the Stomper Suh gang.
