Mendy has Packers, Ravens, Dolphins week 15, 16, 17 and the Ravens again week 12. Forte has Ravens, Vikings, Lions week 15, 16, 17. Both have tough schedules but Mendy's is a little easier getting ti the playoffs but not by much so both are risky. Based on current play I would choose Mendy but its personal preference here.

+1 Look at the teams for which they play. I believe that going forward Mendy will get more opportunities
The info below was found at Rotoworld in their Red Zone Report. I think it is interesting that Mendy has twice as many RZ TDs and one third the number of RZ chances

They didnt look for him too much this week in the RZ as Ward had 2 TD from inside the 5 yrd line. It was killing me that they were not feeding Mendy but I think Tomlin is a little worried that he might fumble down there. Just something to consider.

LMAO. And when they did with under 2 minutes he fumbled (again) but the refs decided to give it back to the Steelers cause they didn't want to ruin Mendys career as a Steeler. During the playoffs enter a player named Larry Johnson and he's surely not getting any goaline touches. Either way i'd still take Fumblin Mendy by a mile over Forte.

Would someone please tell Calvin Johnson and Greg Jennings it's time to play ball? Thx

He still gashed the Broncos who were like the 8th ranked D vs the run at the time for 155 yards with a 7 YPC average mister “Mendy cant run against a good defense” PAFAS. Mendy has just as many fumbles lost as AP, S Jax(who's your #1 RB), Turner and 2 less than D Will and 1 less than Addai. RB position is brutal which is why 30 yrs old is the limit. RBs will have their fumbles and if they dont they probably arent running hard enough. That being said, Tomlin, like any other coach is going to react to those fumbles to try to make his player better, which he has. The guy with an actual problem is Slaton who has 10 lost fumbles. I'm just saying.
