Since I've decided Samkon Gado will be taking up one of my RB slots, who starts in the other one... Julius or Marion? I started Julius instead of MBIII on Monday night and that didn't really pan out, so I'm not sure what I should do here. Should I just scratch Gado and start both of them?

Help me Cowboys fans. One more win gets me into the playoffs.

If all you have is those guys you're in DEEP trouble quite frankly. JJ and MB will be splitting carries taking numbers away from each other and Gado, as you will see, is a one week wonder.

GB is playing Minn. this week so Gado IS an option though.

I hope you have good WR's.

Although I do like MB personally, my hunch says that if JJ is going to have any type of break out game, this is the game that he should get his season started. I'd go with JJ on this one as BP gives JJ more touches than last game. Especially after having a good week of practice.

***** IF JJ DOES NOT HAVE A GOOD PRACTICE WEEK ALL BETS ARE OFF AND I WOULD GO WITH MB III.

JJ and Ahman Green were my two main RB's at the beginning of the year... when Green went out, I had Najeh Davenport behind him. Now they're both out and JJ is battling injury as well. My team is pretty good, but I'm trying to work through my RB's.

And Gado has now had 2 solid weeks in a row, which is why I don't think the "one week wonder" moniker applies. I'm thinking that if I start both JJ and MBIII, I'm guaranteed at least one TD and some yards between those two (it's a 2 RB league, so I get points for things both of them do), but I have a hunch that it's only going to end up coming from one player on Sunday.

I'm stuck deciding between the two as well. I started JJ last week and ended up losing because of it. So I'm think BArber might be the one to start until JJ starts getting more carries. And Barber seems to have a nose for the end zone. But it's a tough call cause Parcells might opt to get JJ going against Detroit this week. Hmm...

Detroit has a pretty good run D. You may want to trade one of them away for a RB who is playing more.

I think I'm going to go with Barber since he's a tough runner by the goal line and may get a TD or 2.

JJ is due to break out- and Barber laying it on the carpet late on Monday night was not something that will have BP happy with playing him.
