I benched LaDainian Tomlinson in favor of Frank Gore. I may end up regretting this, but Green Bay's defense is too good and LT has started out too bad for me not to.

Good thing its not too late to change it back....
Gotta look at the match ups. You think Frank Gore will rush for more yards and TDs against the Pittsburgh Defense, as opposed to LT against the Packers Defense?
Another note: Gore has yet to return to practice this week, although its not because of injury, its still much needed practice when facing Pittsburgh.
Do the right thing. Start Mr. Tomlinson.

Yes, I do.
I bet you change it back later in the week.

How in the world did you end up with LT and Gore as your RB's?

You will end up regretting it big time if he gets big numbers. If you want to win, you will be smart and start LT. Gore won't do as well against the Steelers. Hermann Edwards said "You play to win the game". Start LT. You will thank me later. lol

LT has a gay new facemask.
Thats what is killing him this year.
Letting frank gore play this week is a smart move.

Bold move, but I think San Diego takes about some Bellicheat frustration and spanks GB. Gore against a stout Steeler D is no pushover, plus you know San Fran stubs a toe soon.
Gutsy call, but I say give it to LT.

LT has been so disappointing thus far in the fantasy season. I don't have the balls to bench him though. Donovan McNabb was also a horrible pick. I managed to pick up Delhomme in free agency.

LT has given me a grand total of 17 fantasy points in 2 weeks as my starter (15 in week 1 and 2 in week 2). Gore, on my bench, has produced a grand total of 25 points (9 in week 1 and 16 in week 2). It's a tough move, but I don't expect LT to break out of this little slump on the road at Green Bay. I like Gore just a bit more this week and until LT's production picks up, I have no reason to assume this will be his week.

Well get ready for a 3rd week of disappointment IMO.

You must be forgetting that you are talking about the reigning MVP. LT will brake loose against Green Bay this week, or at least he will be more productive than Gore against a tough Steelers defense. The Steelers D is better than the Packers D, and LT is better than Gore. Don't get me wrong, Gore and the Packers D is good, but not AS good.

I think its a smart move and you can hold LT until he comes around...and truse me, he will come around. Just not now.

I stuck with Gore and can't really regret it since neither back was effective. LT will finish with a couple more points because he had a TD, but he was all but ineffective on the field... again.
