Brandon Jacobs is "set to carry the load" in Sunday's game against the Patriots, according the Newark Star-Ledger. Jacobs has been griping about his meager role behind Ahmad Bradshaw (foot), so now it's time to prove he's still got gas left in the tank. He'll start going forward and is a strong bet for 15-18 touches weekly, including all the goal-line work. Danny Ware will serve as the third-down back. If Jacobs was dropped in your league, scoop him back up as a potential RB2/flex play.

ok, here's a good one, Mendenhall vs Balt or Jacobs vs NE??? Mendenhall has been disappointing this year what with the steelers offensive line etc..
