Warner could be a nice start against a soft Lions pass D, so I'd pay attention Saturday into Sunday before making a decision.

Adrian Peterson is a must start until he's wheeled off on a stretcher. I'd also give the edge to Portis as your 2nd option. I'd imagine the Cards will try to throw the ball more. Plus, Edge has only 1 100 yard rushing day, and only has 2 TDs in the last 4 games.

I agree with starting Palmer, but I wouldn't touch Warner against the Lions with a 300ft pole. The Lions D is leading the League in INT's.

I agree with starting Peterson, no one has stopped him. As far as Portis and James are concerned, I would go with James. He is due for a 100 yard game, and the Lions D is soft against the run. Portis on the other hand has not had much success on the ground against NFC East teams.
