Alright Boys--It's Fantasy Playoffs Time (and I need advice !!)

first of all, congrats and good luck to those that have made the playoffs in their respective fantasy leagues.

Here is my dilemma. For my flex, do I go with Jerome Harrison or Quinton Ganther ?

Harrison is facing what is presumably an angry Steelers team that is # 2 in terms of fewest fantasy points allowed to RBs this year. Plus, the game is supposed to be played in a snowstorm. Surely the Steelers will stack the box to stop Harrison. On the flip side however, Harrison will get receptions out of the backfield and he is likely assured of 20 touches.

Meanwhile, Ganther has been named the starter for the suddenly resurgent Redskins. He ran reasonably well last week (and was the Skins leading rusher). He gets to play against the Raiders, who are 31 (out of 32 teams) in terms of fantasy points allowed to RBs. No doubt he has a sweet match-up, and he is, in my opinion, more likely to get a TD than Harrison is, even if he has less touches.


And the winner is.............. ???????

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

I sense a hint of sarcasm in the question hunter. 6 teams out of 12 made the playoffs. I finished the regular season at 8-5. Don't forget--I did NOT draft Slaton, I only wagered on him
