Thanks for the comments. At this point I guess I'm going with T. Jones for sure and then it's a tie between J. Jones and Slaton. I feel like I need to play Slaton because I spent a lot to get him and he is a star and it's only been one week *rationalizes out loud*
i wouldnt start julius jones against a much touger SF defense. I would still go with slaton and thomas jones. Dont let week 1 fool you. Texans are gonna open up on Tenn because they dont bring pressure like a 3-4 rex ryan defense does. Kevin smith would be great if he wasnt going up against Minn even though my gut feeling says that he would put a decent stat line by the end of the game.
the 2 jones looked pretty solid and both touched the ball over 20 times. I'd go with them until Slaton shows something. Smith should be pretty good at some point, but not against Minn.

I have to start 2 RBs and I'm struggling to figure out who. Slaton laid an egg last week and I'm gun-shy now. Here are the choices:
- Steve Slaton vs. TEN
- Thomas Jones vs. NE
- Kevin Smith vs. MIN
- Cedric Benson vs. GB
- Julius Jones vs. SF
- Pierre Thomas vs. PHI (I think he's going to be a no-go again though)
Thanks for the help.
