Three RBs drafted as starters on our fantasy rosters. Each without a Qb and each facing a tough D. ( ok, Atlanta not so tough but yet to allow 100 yds rushing).

What's your thoughts on this situation?

On the one hand, back up QBs are usually just asked to manage the game which means lots of running plays and short passes. Very good for RB touches.

On the other hand, Defenses generally defend the run and force the QB to pass. Very bad for YPC.

Do you see these guys as "Must Start" or are you checking your bench for other options?
 
Its really hard to take a guy like Forte out of the lineup considering his talent and his consistency regardless of opponent.

I think you just have to ride with him unless you have a fantastic other option.

Ingram is not a terrible start either. He's a more legit option than Randle for sure. Randle has to deal with all those other RBs hogging the action
 
Randle has been less than impressive so far and the same goes for DMC. I think Dallas is going to stick Michael in real soon to see if he's the answer.

Forte and Ingram but beware of Spiller this week as I think he's going to get a bunch of touches.

and pull a hammy and be out 6 weeks.

If you need two of three, I would go Forte and Ingram. I am not and never will be a Randle fan, and I don't see him as the future.

Now, as to your point, the reason I am not worried as much on Ingram with back up Qb is yes they will stuff the run to force the pass, but Ingram in now in the passing game, and will make up for that.
Forte scares me, he is nicked up, and now Langford is taking goal line touches away. Might be time to start worrying about Forte for the future for those dynasty owners
