Ray Rice - I will not draft you again because you're such a fucking fantasy disgrace this year. Thanks for fucking my team.

Now that that's out of the way, is it crazy to think I might bench Rice in favor of Zac Stacy this weekend? Four out of six games with < 5 points, while Stacy has gone 7.8, 9.0 since getting the starting job a couple weeks ago. What say you? Am I overthinking? Should I keep playing Rice even though he blows donkey?

I might do it. Rams are playing the Panthers and their D isn't all that great. While Baltimore is playing the Steelers and their D hasn't been as good as normal its still not a good matchup.

Well - if you bench him he'll have a career day, but if you start him he'll get hurt on the first play and miss the rest of the game.

For Stacy I wouldnt. Someone else maybe. Stacy seems to be peaking at about 10 pts. Ray Rice can get that on a single drive. The risk far outweighs the reward here.

LOL "someone else"

My shitty team:

RB
Ray Rice
DeAngelo Williams
Fred Jackson
Bernard Pierce
Zac Stacy
Jonathan Stewart

WR
Keenan Allen
Harry Douglas
Dwayne Bowe
Robert Woods
Jarrett Boykin

Need two WRs, two RBs and a flex. Right now it's Allen/Douglas (or Boykin depending on if Jones plays), Rice/Williams, and Jackson.

Just lost Randall Cobb for the foreseeable future, drafted CJsucksballsK and traded him for DeAngelo and FJax last week.
