Need upside

   In a 2-week playoff and down 20 points to the other team. 

I've Bryce Brown (who I played last week for a massive doughnut!) and sat BJGE. Now I've the same decision to make. I need upside and think Brown has the massive upside I need as opposed to BJGE's "safe" 10-15 points floor-ceiling. So would you play Brown again vs Bengals?

	Eagles are not a great run stopping team by any stretch of the imagination(ranked 17th). They have given up 4.1 ypc and only 7 Td's on the ground. Bengals have given up less yards(11th) ,but more per carry 4.2, and more Td's with 11. That isn't an easy call, but with the way teams have been moving the ball against Philly, I would see more opportunities for a TD from the G-E. With McCoy ruled out you have both guys. It is a close call. Brown looked unstoppable until the Tampa Bay game. Tampa is first against the run. I don't see what else could play into the decision. They play each other so either it is a low scoring game, which I don't think it will be, and the pace is slow or it is a high scoring game where the pace is fast. If your question is who has more upside than it is Brown. If your question is who would I play in a playoff game it would be Green-Ellis. Who has been a solid play for a while now.

	20 points is not a huge amount. Unless you feel his team is 20 points per week better. I missed that part. Those were monster games by Brown. All the advice in the world and it still is going to come down to your gut. Both are strong plays. To say it clearer than I did above Brown no doubt has more upside if that is all you want to know.
