Murray.

Sproles is gonna play. Smallwood will get a bit of work, but I would easily start Lat.

Couple of ugly choices here. Murray you at least know will be the starting RB, but I don't expect him to do squat against the Panthers who are second against the run, unless he's used to catch some passes. As for Smallwood, who knows how much he'll be used. Murray if your the favored to win, Smallwood if your not.

smalldwood could be sneaky, he WILL get the early down touches, and will see 15-20 of them........but u know murray gets some catches and goal line work........ upside vs security

easy choice:suds:

Latavius Murray has touch totals of 20 > 16 > 20 > 17 since returning from his turf toe injury. Murray continued to lose a significant amount of work coming off the Week 11 bye, however, playing only 55% of the Raiders’ snaps while Jalen Richard (6 touches), Jamize Olawale (5), and DeAndre Washington (1) all sprinkled in. Murray remains a committee back, but he is the clear-cut lead runner in Oakland and his Week 12 matchup may not be as difficult as it looks with Kuechly on the shelf after the Panthers doled out a combined 34-163-0 (4.79 YPC) rushing line to Chiefs and Saints backs in their last two games

or not:suds:
In the absence of Ryan Mathews (MCL), Wendell Smallwood looks set up for a workload of 17-plus touches against a Green Bay run defense that has been gashed recently and will be without impressive run-stopping rookie ILB Blake Martinez (MCL). Over the past four weeks, the Packers have been pounded for combined rushing lines of 17-81-1 (Falcons), 21-70-2 (Colts), 26-154-1 (Titans), and 26-147-3 (Redskins) by enemy backs. Smallwood has reached 17 touches twice this season and has touch counts of 13 > 17 over his last two games. While he will lose some work to Darren Sproles and perhaps Kenjon Barner, Smallwood is in prime position to push for RB2 value or better in Week 12.
