Debating putting Arian Foster in. Cribbs I won't take that gamble.

I'm thinking about it. I've got to decide between Housh, Ocho and Cribbs. Ocho has a poor matchup, Housh has been terrible even with good matchups and Cribbs may be another RB.

I think I'm going to ride the Foster train though. My gamble with Ganther last week paid off. It may make me want to double/triple down this week :)

I'm deciding on Arian vs the Rams as my #2RB (my #1RB is Ray Rice & I'd play him on his bye week :P ) but my other option's are:
Pierre Thomas vs Dallas
Fred Jackson vs New England
Beanie Wells vs Detroit (which I'm heavily leaning towards Beanie here after his performance the previous week vs 49ers)

I'm thinking about throwing in Cribbs vs. KC (very weak defense) because there's a pretty good shot at him taking a handful of carries & a definite shot at being heavily utilized against one of the softest defense's in the league....Basically if he can do what he did against the NFL's #1 rush defense (in the Pittsburgh Steelers) then I like his chances to produce versus one of the NFL's weakest overall defense's! But I can understand that many owner's are unwilling to take that gamble being that they've made it this far with the guy's they've rostered, so why take that chance now in a "do-or-die situation? In the end, I may use Cribbs in my #3WR slot & be ready for the minimum while hoping for the maximum (just think, if he does end up getting carries at the RB position...then you'll be getting RB production out of your #3WR position)! :D

Sounds like we're thinking along the same lines. The question is more-or-less whether or not Mangini follows through with putting Cribbs in the backfield. You never know with Mangini. Last game they only used him in the wildcat. It'll probably end up being a Saturday decision.
