Go with your gut with either Portis or Forte. I am really high on Portis, but Forte has a great matchup.

I really need to stick with using my studs....especially this early in the season.

I left 75 points on my bench today. :( :doh:

Ay, I didn't catch this thread last week. If I did I would have been able to save you the heartache. You are unfortunately learning the lesson that I did many moons ago. That is...always play your studs, and only play the matchups when you have studs on bye week.

Yes, your matchup may outscore your stud on occassion, but more often than not, your stud will pay off - otherwise he wouldn't be categorized as a stud.

And in the end, if your stud does get outscored, you can shake it off as no big deal because you play him every week anyway. But when the stud is on the bench, and is racking up points like crazy...you end up kicking the dog, banging your head against the wall, yellin' at the wife, etc...all because you didn't think CLINTON FRIGGIN' PORTIS COULDN'T RUN FOR 145 YDS AND A TD AGAINST THE #1 RUN DEFENSE IN THE NFL!!!!! What's the matter with you? :)
