Alright, I claim to know a little something about football, but ESPN is filled with experts, and I completely don't understand this ranking in this fantasy football matchup.

First off I have Adrian Peterson and LT in this league, so I've been blowing every team out the past few weeks. This week, I have the advantage in every category except defense (I have the Chargers who play the Colts and he has the Jags who play the Titans, so that part's understandable), and in the one running back category because I have Peterson and he has Marion Barber. I'm going to pick up another defense,

Reason for this thread is to see if someone could please validate Barber over Peterson. Barber plays the Giants, and Peterson plays the Packers, the Packers have allowed an average of 10 fewer yards a game than the Giants but the Giants have allowed only 3 touchdowns to the Packers 6 allowed. Furthermore, Peterson has been unstopable this year, easily the best runner and most productive back in the league.

Can anyone please explain this projection?
