McAllister or D Davis. Also 1 WR to go along with C Johnson out of these guys: R Smith, H Ward, R Williams, N Burleson, or Drew Bennett (waiver possibility)

Hmmm...McAllister on the road vs. Dallas. Davis at home vs Indy. Dallas is giving up 113.1 yards a game, Indy 118.5. McAllister will see more carries this week (he carried 7 times last week) and is due for a breakout game. Indy's defense is getting better every week. I think I'd choose Duece.  
 
As for the WR, I'd choose Rod Smith. Denver is pissed after losing last week to Oakland at home and will take it out on the Phins.

I too would go with Duece.  He is too good to have back to back poor outings.
 
Also, I concur that R. Smith is the best start at WR.  It is tough for me to not advise starting H. Ward because is such an amazing talent.  Barnaby's point about the Broncos playing mad this week is a good one.  Alsok, the Jets are a much better team and have more to play for than the Dolphins.  Eventhough the Miami defense has been pretty strong at times they are really just an average defense.
 
RB: Duece
WR: 1) Smith 2) Ward 3) Burleson

i'm not sold on Duece this season cause NO sucks.  plus NO is on the road against what i think is still a half decent defense, and DAL is fired up to make playoffs now, with offense clicking behind JJ.  i also think NO will be playing from behind again.
 
Indy defense might be playing a little better but HOU is at home where Carr usually plays better.  Davis is involved alot in the passing game also and he has been looking very good the last few weeks (even had a 60yd td called back on a penalty last week).  i dont think Indy will blow them out like they did a few weeks ago.  
Davis had 152 total yds and 2 td's in that game anyway!!
 
i'd go Davis.
 
as far as WR, i'd go - Smith, Bennett, Ward
 
Good Luck.   KC

I'd have to go Deuce because I think Houston will be playing from a lot farther behind than New Orleans. The Dallas run "D" is still decent and they ARE fired up after Monday Night...BUT...Houston could find itself down 21-0 by the end of the 1st quarter. Go with Deuce.

True, but Houston was down big the last time they played Indy and Davis still managed very good numbers. In that game, Carr couldn't seem to find anyone downfield and was checking down a lot. Davis also got a lot of carries in that game as well despite the deficit.

I would go with Deuce, too, for all the reasons outlined above.  At wideout, as per my "Red Zone PRIMED Players for the Week", I would go with Ward.  He's due and the Jets could be had through the air in Pittsburgh.  Don't let all the talk of the Jets D scare you.  They've had some seriously weak-ass opponents lately.  Good luck!
