I would say James, because he is the clear starter. Sproles is definitley a sleeper this week, especially with the favorable matchup and the wide receiver injuries, but I would put in James. The Eagles defense is very overrated.
Sproles has quietly become a bigger part of the Chargers backfield committee in recent weeks, and he's a great sleeper against the Texans. With so many wide receivers dealing with injuries, Sproles could see a ton of targets against a Texans defense that's been terrible against the pass in 2010.
