Should I bench Slaton? - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

Really hard to do...I will be starting Steve Smith(carolina) in a flex instead of SS...

Steve Smith definitely. He usually torches NO's secondary.

I went with Moats at the last minute. Slaton is just too risky right now.

I did the same thing. I hope I made the right decision.

I have Moats but am sticking with Slaton. So far this season, he seems to have big games after he has been benched. We'll see if it happens again. This week may be his final starting opportunity for me. If he doesn't show up, I will have to play Moats or a WR in the flex.

I would switch out Smith for Slaton. However, I am starting Slaton today.

I might play both if that's allowed because they will both probably split carries. Is it allowed?

Slaton is the #2 back and will probably split with Brown at that accourding to NFLN.

**gwallaia** · 11-08-2009

Well I benched Slaton and started Moats.

Moats got 15.25 points and Slaton had 12.33.

So I did make the better choice there.

I should have started them both, stupid Clinton Portis.
