Vick or McNair and which two of Alexander/Barlow/Bettis
 
With Vick coming back and McNair hurt (as usual), i'm torn as to who to play. at RB, ive got Shaun Alexander, Kevan Barlow, and Bettis and can only play 2. Any thoughts?

Do you need this to make the playoff's? I think Vick has the better upside this week, but McNair should be good going up against a not so tough Indy D at home.

As for the backs, start Alexander who will have a field day against the Vikes on the turf in the dome, and I'd go with Barlow against the terrible D of the Cards.

At first I thought this was a no brainer, but actually looking at it and thinking it over, its not as easy as it seems. Me personally I wouldn't mess with Vick right now. To soon coming back, he's not going to be the same Vick as last year with the run. I have a feeling they are going to blitz him like crazy. McNair always plays hurt, so I'd send him. The backs, yeah, Alexander for sure. Remember the 5 TD game last year against the Vikes? But as far as Barlow and Bettis..that's tough. Barlow could go off against the Cards, al la Brock Forsey, but they are ranked like 12 th against the run or they were until last week, so they aren't that much of a push over. Bettis against a piss poor Raiders D that doesn't look like they care anymore is almost a guarantee for one TD run. Me personally, I'm a Steelers fan, so I'd send Bettis..but being realistic I think Barlow will have more yards, but not so sure about a TD.

That is funny. He's coming back two months later than he should have.
