This weeks Thursday night game is putting me in a tough spot. Especially with the very questionable nature of Martin's availability for this weekends game. I'm leaning toward just playing Thomas tonight and hoping he can pitch in his normal 8-13 points. Over gambling on Martin and having no RB come Sunday.

Anyone vs Martin is where I would go.

Those would be the only two options this week Steelers. I have L Bell as well but he's on his bye. With 16 teams and L Bell, Gio and Martin as keepers I didn't really address it as much as I probably should have in the draft. I had stashed Lattimore but that fell through. So I have been starting D Thomas with L Bell for a little bit now with Gio and Martin banged up. Still holding strong at 11-0 so can't complain to much ;).

Thomas. . Wouldn't take the chance the Dougie plays, cuz even if he does, I doubt he scores more than 1-3, not worth the risk in my opinon

It's PPR so he would score more than that. But I totally agree with you that it's not worth taking the chance of having no RB at all if I were to bench Thomas in hopes of Martin playing.

I dunno.. even in PPR.. dude has to actually play and I think both Sims and Rainey will be ahead of him, he may not get a catch, or more than a few carries

Thomas picked up 10 points tonight so it worked out decent enough. :)
