dillon is good, but also got roughed up last week, he may not see as many carries, especially with how good patrick pass looked towards the end of last game.
benson hasn't been impressive at all.
tatum bell had a good game, but he splits carries.
lamont jordan is coming off a bye week to play the chargers, which should be a shootout.
LT - Jordan - Davis - Dillion - Bell - Benson - Caddilac
Thats how I'd order them this week.
But then again, I am 1-4...

stephen davis has been listed question and probable ever since week 1. I don't understand why he won't be needed as much vs the lions. The Panthers play smash mouth football. They get a lead and run the clock down. Then there is the fact that Davis 7 Td's most of them being on the 1 yard line. So it won't matter if doens't get 100 yards cuz he's always there in the shortyardage and goaline. Jordan is replaced with Crockett in those areas.
Dillon won't lose carries just because he got "banged" up last week. he'll lose carries if the Pats are down. he's had at least 14+ carries in every game and also has had 5 TDs. Also stays in for goaline and shortyardage.
Lamont Jordan is going up against a team ranked 7th vs the rush but ranked 27th vs the pass...Jordan hasn't averaged 4 yd/carry or 100yd/gm except for the dallas game... and it took him 26 carries to do so. also, shootouts are usually done through the air, not the ground.

uhhh you have Davis who is questionable at 3rd yet Caddy, who is also questionable as last. Caddy was leading the league in rushing before he got injured. yet he is behind a 1st round draft pick who hasn't started a game yet and a RB that is a change of pace back.
