Steven Jackson or Trent Richardson in flex, or possibly Brian Hartline

Looking to get a solid 10 spot in the flex slot and trent richardson is banged up and steven jackson is losing carries but is still the boss ,and Hartline has been blanketed lately and this week has Antonio Cromartie to beat, any thoughts

T Rich looked really soft last week vs the Colts. His rib injury is keeping him from getting low and running people over. He looked really top heavy and was being toppled over last week. Im benching him until he bounces back b/c the news on him this week sounds like last week...and he ended up with 1 point. I think he's a long shot this week, especially against a stout SD run D.

So that leaves you with SJ and BH. I think SJ is the safer play but BH has a higher ceiling. Pats D is soft and I think the Rams will try to throw a lot so SJ could be limited. But those limited touches could see better YPC. I like BH this week. The Fins are coming off a bye where they have had time rework BH in to some new plays. There has been a lot of media attention on the tension between R Bush and the NYJ Def. If this distracts the D into focusing on the Fins run game it could give BH some room and provide big plays down field.

I would roll the dice on BH....
