Week 13 -- Which RB to start?

I'm in a league that starts 3 RB's, and I seem to have accumluated quite a few on my bench so not quite sure who to start. Here are my options:

Kolby Smith vs. SD

Selvin Young vs OAK (Assuming he plays)

Frank Gore vs CAR

Kevin Jones vs MIN

Adrian Peterson (Chicago one) vs NYG

Willis McGahee vs NE

Ryan Grant vs DAL

    I'd take a chance and start Gore, Peterson and Young...but then again, I've already missed the playoffs in both my leagues.

    Portis, johnson and colston are give mes. For your second RB I would go with Hall if he is starting. Anyone can have a good day against Oakland. Just look at what Kolby Smith did to Oakland's rush defense last week, and that was his first full game. Of course he is hurt and may not play at all. Chatman also has a good matchup and should get some decent yardage if he plays. If they are both out look to whoever is starting for Denver. Cecil Sapp might get the start if henry, young, and hall can't go.

    Start Gore against a terrible Carolina defense and the other Adrian Peterson. It looks likes Peterson will get the bulk of the carries in Chicago and the Bears will lean on the running game down the stretch.

    Definitely start Frank Gore. I hope you started Ryan Grant, as he had a big night against GB. Otherwise, if Travis Henry isn't suspended this week, Selvin will be backing him up (source Denver Post), so that doesn't look promising. Kolby Smith is going up against an improving SD run Defense, so he may have a problem there with the weak Chiefs run blocking (except against the Raiders). McGehee is going up against the Pats defense so it doesn't look good there either. With that said, if you didn't start Grant, start Smith, but don't be surprised if the Chargers stuff him.

    Smith, he had an amazing game, and will do pretty well against SD

    Frank Gore, because hes back on track after his injury, and CAR cant stop anything

    Peterson, although NYG has an alright D, i think there goin to shut down Rex and his throwing options all game, and they'll hand the ball of a lot more

    Kolby smith he is a beast

    Frank Gore GOing to have a monster game

    SElvin young if he plays kolby smith in his first start got 150 yards on them and Youngs has had plenty of good starts

    I would definately start Smith after his performance last week, as well as Gore. The third one is tough because your other RBs play against strong Defenses. I would probably play McGahee just because he is the best of your remaining RBs.

    Smith, Gore and Peterson. If you get points for receptions use Jones in place of Peterson.
