Pick 1, gore, Kevin smith, demaryius Thomas, Donald driver

Need to pick one. I have been riding Gore all year, but he is playing Pitt and I am worried they will sit him to get healthy for the playoffs. Smith is playing Oak and should have a big game if healthy. Has not practiced. Thomas has been big last two games and playing a crappy passing d. Driver should get more looks since Gennings is out.

If you can confirm that Smith will play then he is the guy. There is risk there because he gets injured easily but its playoff time so its a gamble. Of the other names I'd play Gore. He has been slumping the past few weeks but he gets the touches. Thomas and Driver are hit or miss, too risky to play in a Playoff game.

Smith or Driver.

No to Gore... Gore only got 10 carries last week and he's still banged up playing a great steelers team.

Bey Bey Thomas is just a tough start because Tebow is the QB and you really don't know. Wouldn't be shocking to see Thomas get zero catches and it wouldn't be shocking to see him end up with a blown coverage induced 50 yard TD

Driver is way too hit or miss to start in the playoffs.

I feel the same way towards Thomas but hes had 2 straight great games and is playing a terrible passing D. If Tebow needs to throw, hes going to find only Thomas or Decker.

At this point, Id rank it like this:

1. Smith
2. Gore
3. Thomas
4. Driver

IF Smith is not healthy i go with Thomas. Denver is going to have to keep up with Pats. When Tebow throws, it usually goes to Thomas

Don't forget Niners are playing for #2 seed and weekend off. They see this as must win. They aren't scared either. Gore will play is my bet.
