So is everyone sitting Forte?

[SoCool]

Chicago's offense looked terrible (or G.B. defense looked great). Not that I'd give up on him for the season but, Pitt's defense is so tough. Wudyathank?

[SoCool]

We're talking fantasy points not talent or potential. Do you think da Bears are gonna see much of da endzone?

[jkeithc82]

Never sit your studs.

[FAH_Q]

You dont sit your first picks regardless of matchup

It was week 1. Stuff is going to change. Yeah Forte probably won't get as many catches as last year, but he will get his.

[SuperSonic88]

You pick a guy in the top 5 in your draft and ask if you should sit him? thats retarded.

[chillster84]

I got him #9.. lolwut

and hell no you don't sit him

[Smurg]

Depending on your roster, but given you don't have benched first or second rounders against weak D's, then no.

[SpiderSense]

LOL at people even picking Forte top 5.

Forte won't be **** compared to last year cause Orton did this thing Cutler almost never does called "check down".

[kethnaab]

you don't start RBs against Pittsburgh.

you just don't. It almost always fails.

[Pro_Shark]

I'm benching him. I have no confidence against the Bears offense, especially now going up against Pitt.

I have a better feeling about McFadden against KC.

a quick perusal of the 2008 season shows the following as the top scoring RBs against the Steelers in non-PPR

1) Tashard Choice 16.6 points
2) LT2 week 11 16.2 points
3) LeRon McClain week 4, 14.9 points
4) Correll Buckhalter week 3 14.7 points
5) Chris Johnson 13.0 points
6) Clinton Portis week 9 12.4 points
7) Kevin Faulk week 13 12.1 points
8) Sammy Morris week 13 11.7 points
9) Joseph Addai week 10 11.2 points
10) LenDale White week 16 10.8 points

from what I can tell, no other RBs broke 10 pints against the Steelers last season, including guys like Slaton, Westbrook, McGahee, MJD, Ray Rice, Fred taylor, Cedric Benson, Derrick Ward, Brandon Jacobs, Darren Sproles, and Jamal Lewis.

Forte might break 10 in a TD vulture type role though. 40 YFS and a TD will net you a 10-point game.

He will have to unless he wants WRs giving up on routes costing him a bunch of INTs every game.

[jvinci]

so what are you supposed to do with forte right now? how many weeks before you give up on him?
