I'd go with Portis. He's really the only feature back out of the 4.

Jones for sure until any of the other guys show you they can perform consistantly. I always like to go with whos hot and matchups and Jones is one of the premier backs this week in that respect.

I'm going to be playing Bettis along with Brown and Dillon this week
Fucking Priest Holmes is STILL injured
ugh
Fifty...regardless, you are going DOWN

you'd be fucking crazy to start Portis. The guy has been down all year. Quit waiting for him to become Clinton Portis of last year - it's not happening. Start Julis Jones. The Cowboys will want to run, he's shown he has good moves, plus he's much fresher than any other back. The Rams will still throw 3 out of every 4 plays so don't play Jackson, and Bettis will share carries with Staley. Jones is far and away the best start.

Bettis shares the load but will get TDs if it's a goal line situation
Jackson will share with Faulk.
Portis.... how is he even a question? Granted the Giant's run D isn't great, but the Redskin's offense is so pathetic that when they scored a TD in the last game all I heard from 'skins fans was "Woah they finally scored a TD". It wouldn't be worth it.
Jones is your man here. Just look at his performance on thanksgiving against a strong run D.
My question tho... I got Trent Green and Big Ben. Who do I start? Green has hurt ribs but is playing Oakland. Ben is healthy but is in a slump.
Also, Tiki Barber, or Nick Goings? Barber is playing the #3 overall defense in the league, no matter how good he is, that's a factor, let alone that he got 6 stitches in his knee last week. And the Giants offense is sputtering as well. Goings is facing New Orleans. #32 rated defense... argh, who do I play.

Tough call...I'd say it depends on where you are in the standings. If you think you need to take a risk, I'd go with Goings...even though on paper he's more of a sure thing, I wouldn't trust him like Tiki. It's tough, either one could be considered a risky pick. Goings (unproven) Tiki (against a tough D) Personally I'd start Tiki. Much as I hate the Steelers, I'd go with Ben over Trent. And for Astro, I'd take Collins as well. I think David's a good QB, but Collins is against Kansas...
