mark ingram or brandon jacobs in a TD heavy league?

Picked both these guys because I think they will be used in short yardage goal line situations...

jacobs has a history of tearing up WAS... ingram is a gamble with no history at all and is playing against the GB defense..  This is for a flex spot... my other two RB are wells and gore...

ingram or jacobs?

Both guys are strong 3rd options in a TD heavy league. Good picks.
I'd probably give the slight lean to Ingram since I think a shootout would be more likely in Green Bay in than in Landover.

My thinking is that Ingram will get some opportunities to score no matter what. But if NYG pulls ahead and controls the tempo /game running the ball Jacobs could see more touches and TDs. If NYG plays from behind Jacobs will my utitlized as much.

Should I consider not playing wells or gore?

Pierre Thomas is still there right?

I went with jacobs thankfully...

although it looks good that on the goal line play ingram got the ball... I drafted him because I figured that with NO's offense he will get at least a couple red zone/goal line opportunities that would go to ingram as a hard nosed runner...

My man Pierre Thomas looked good last night. Just as I thought he would, Ingram is good too, but Pierre is a better all purpose back.  And how about Sproles? Reggie who?
