Stevan Ridley

Week 3 – RB – Start or Sit – Ryan Matthews or Steven Ridley?

Posted by in NFL Week 3 Start 'Em Sit 'Em Advice on September 22nd, 2012 | Comment »

Question:

Who should I start? Steven Ridley or Ryan Mathews in week 3?

Answer:

Steven Ridley will take on the Baltimore Ravens on the road and Ryan Mat]thews will have the Atlanta Falcons at home. Ridley has so far been a great mid-round pick putting up about 18 points in week 1 and nearly 10 points in week 2.

Mathews has been sidelined for two weeks with a collarbone injury. His return is still questionable. Matthews wants to play and the fact that he practiced this past week is an encouraging sign. He’s on track to get the start this Sunday, but I don’t like the fact that it’s still an unknown if and how much he’ll play.

The good news is that the Chargers have the 4:00 game and the Patriots play at night. I think you go into this one with Ryan Mathews as the starter and if he’s a last-minute scratch, which is unlikely at this point, you can insert Stevan Ridley in your lineup. Mathews is the play this week as he has a better matchup than Ridley.…

Week 2 – Flex – Start or Sit – Smith Smith or Stevan Ridley?

Question: Which player should I go with in week 2 at the flex?

Steve Smith @ CAR or Stevan Ridley vs. ARI

Answer:

I like Stevan Ridley. First, Steve Smith is listed as questionable with knee injury, but will be active. Although I expect the Saints vs. Panthers game to be a high-scoring shootout, Smith’s injury is still a concern for me. Steven Ridley, on the other hand, was spectacular in week 1 and will get the Pats goalline carries. Since the Pats are facing the Cardinals, that would lead to a lot of scoring opportunities for the Patriots. Ridley had 20 carries, 125 yards and 1 TD in week 1 against the Titans. Very impressive numbers.…

Week 2 – RB – Start or Sit – Ryan Matthews or Stevan Ridley?

Posted by in NFL Week 2 Start 'Em Sit 'Em Advice on September 14th, 2012 | 1 Comment

Question:

I have Ryan Mathews and Steven Ridley on my squad. Mathews was out week 1, but should be back in the lineup in week 2 against the Tennesee Titans. Do I start Matthews this week or give him another week before I put him in my starting lineup?

Answer:

Ryan Mathews is itching to get back on the field and he should play this week. What a performance from Stevan Ridley though in week 1. 125 yards and 1 TD. New England is at home and facing the Cardinals. Ridley may have another big week. The Chargers may decide to be cautious and have Mathews split carries with Ronnie Brown. I would go with Ridley this week.…

Week 5: Beanie Wells or Stevan Ridley?

Posted by in NFL Week 5 Start 'Em Sit 'Em Advice on October 11th, 2011 | Comment »

Question: Who should I start in the flex for week 5, Beanie Wells or Stevan Ridley?

Beanie Wells has been extremely productive so far, but I’m concerned with Beanie Wells lingering injury and he’s facing a touch Minnesota defense. Who would you go with and why? Stevan Ridley is playing against the Giants.

Best answer:

Definitely start Beanie Wells. I made the same mistake by sitting Wells last week. The reason I say you start him is because he gets the outright starting postion unlike Stevan Ridley, who just has a backup role on New England. Wells also said he he’s in tune with his offensive line. The Vikings may have a good defensive line, but so do the Giants. I expect Wells to put up good numbers this week.

What do you think? Answer below!
