RB=Lynch and Portis
WR/TE=Johnson,Winslow and Moss imo...

Lynch and Portis

Moss, Johnson and Royal

I'm weary about starting a RB and a WR from the same team. The Redskins offense has looked decent and they're facing the Cowboys this week....so hopefully it will be a high scoring game. I just don't want it to be a low scoring game and I get screwed because they both get shutout.

Who to start at RB this week?

I have 2 to start-leaning on Thomas Jones for the 1st spot, but the 2nd...?

Here is what i have available...

Fred Taylor, Edgerrin James, Darren Sproles, Lendale White...

Leaning towards Taylor who i just picked up after someone cut him

May take a risk with Ocho, but TJ had 12 grabs last week, kinda tough

I'm not starting Ocho until he proves that he should be starting.

I think I'm going to go wtih Portis and Royal.

Do you start Lee Evans @ St. Louis or Andre Johnson against JAX?

That's a tough one.

I would probably go with Evans.

Evans.

How about: Favre vs. Arizona

or

Edwards @ St. Louis?

Johnson. Every game, regardless of matchup.

Favre against Arizona or Palmer against Cleveland?

You gotta answer mine first.....:D

Edwards and Palmer over Farve. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm not high on Farve this week.

Smaller money league: 1 QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1 TE, 1K, 1D

1 pt every 10 yds, 6 pts a TD, .5 PPR,


Roethlisberger
Barber
Do I roll with Portis, LJ or Selvin Young?
Cotchery
Meachem
Isaac Bruce
Bo Scaife
Jeff Reed
Jax D

League 2 (bigger money league): 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D

1 pt every 10 yds rushing/recving, 4 pts a TD, +3 for over 100yds rushing/recving.

Palmer
SJAX
McGahee or Felix Jones?
Fitzgerald
Housmanzadeh
Jerramy Stevens
dun dun dun dun ROB BIRONAS!
Pitt D

I'm leaning towards Felix Jones in league 2. And sadly enough possibly LJ in league #1.

Great. Palmer is out.


C'mon Matt Schaub!!

Like many of you, I sat favre. And I ***n PISSED!!!!

And I started Palmer over Favre. I went to the game today, so I had no clue they pulled him. ****! ****! ****!

yikes... 6 tds

ROFL

Who picked up Lance Moore in both leagues at 12:55 and started him?

<---------------

You're a stud.

I advised a buddy not to start Favre against the Cards due to his ankle being tweaked and the Cards D looking legit thus far. We're in the same league.

LMAO

TBG,


Lance Moore, huh? Must be a super deep league.

Nope.

Had Moss, Calvin Johnson and Marvin Harrison on byes.

Was starting DeSean Jackson, Eddie Royal and Javon Walker.

Dropped Joey Galloway and added Moore at the last minute.

Sub'd out Walker for Moore.

In my other league, I had Colston down, Calvin on a bye along with Anthony Gonzalez. I had no good options, so I grabbed him.

Jackpot again.

Well, we're both geniuses then.

I started Schaub. ONLY because Palmer was hurt and he's my backup.

I sort of feel like a Genius.

Although, you > me.

Alright guys. I know it's still ONLY Tuesday. But, my matchups suck this week. Any advice is appreciated.

In league one : 1 QB, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D

Schaub or Palmer (if healthy)
Felix Jones, McGahee, Hightower, Rudi Johnson?
Fitzgerald, Housmanzadeh, Mason, Hackett?
Stevens
Pitt D
Bironas

I'm leaning towards Schaub. Home opener at Reliant. He's played Indy pretty well lately.

League two: 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3WRs, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D

Delhomme or Big Ben?
Barber, Portis, or LJ?
Bruce, Meachem, Mason are my starters now. Cotchery on a bye - Colston hurt.
Bo Scaife
Jeff Reed
JAX D

I was thinking about dropping Selvin Young and picked up another WR. Toomer, Engram, Reggie Brown, Kevin Walter, Galloway are all available. (this is for league 2)

I need to start 2 Running backs. The no brainer seems to be LT and Gore. Except I have Matt Forte @Det this week. Gore has NE, so Forte has a better match up. I also have Turner@GB. Whattaya think? Do I dare sit a stud in Gore for a favorble matchup? Everyone does great against Detroit.

Also, I need 3 WR's.
Holmes@Jax
Housh@Dal
Wayne@Hou
Welker@SF
Royal vs. TB

I need to pick three WR's as well.

Santana Moss
Brandon Marshall
Andre Johnson
Calvin Johnson

I've been going with Marshall and the Johnson's and it's worked out well. But Moss is lighting it up.

Pick my flex

Laurence Maroney
Marvin Harrison
Buckhalter (if Westbrook doesn't play)
DeAngelo Williams
Cedric Benson

Ouch.....either Harrison or Buckhalter.

Moss, Marshall and Andre Johnson

Here is who I am considering starting as of right now.



Schaub or Palmer (if healthy)
Felix Jones, McGahee, Hightower, Rudi Johnson?
Fitzgerald, Housmanzadeh, Mason, Hackett?
Stevens
Pitt D
Bironas

I'm leaning towards Schaub. Home opener at Reliant. He's played Indy pretty well lately.

League two: 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3WRs, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D

Delhomme or Big Ben?
Barber, Portis, or LJ?
Bruce, Meachem, Mason are my starters now. Cotchery on a bye - Colston hurt.
John Carlsen
Jeff Reed
JAX D

I am trying to work out a trade where I'd trade McGahee/Stevens/Hackett for Daniels and Braylon Edwards.

Team 1 looks good to me. How many teams are in that league? JFC


Team 2.....I would trade LJ for Portis but that's just me.

14 team league. I need a true TE. Hopefully this guy will bite on this trade. His RBs are Perry and Selvin Young as of now.

SJax is on a bye. I really don't wanna trade McGahee, but McClain has been more than serviceable AND he's more apt to get the goal line carries.

So, I'd have SJax and interchange Felix, Rudi, and Hightower.

Anybody have an opinion here?

Go LT and Forte

For your WRs....I would go with Holmes, Wayne and Royal.

I hate weeks like this...

Need to start 2 of these 3 WR's.

Wayne, Calvin Johnson and Steve Smith.

Wayne is a given.

Chicago's pass defense is horrible, and the Lions will likely be playing from behind, throwing more, so I'm leaning towards CJ.

It's almost guaranteed though, that if I sit Smith he'll go off for 150 and 2 TD's against KC.

Thoughts?

Pick 3 RB's. Normally Westbrook's a no brainer but I worry about him coming off the injury.

Matt Forte
Steve Slaton
Brandon Jacobs
Larry Johnson
Brian Westbrook

It depends on which Chief's team shows up as to how good Smith will be. Ifthey get ahead early, they'll probably try to run and we've shown ourselves to be pretty bad against the run. I think Calvin Johnson is the safer pick and I'd probably start him. However, if you're up against a strong opponent and think you might need to score through the roof to win this week, Smith has the better upside.

Forte, Slaton, Westbrook

I bet he gets 20 touches

backup plan LJ

I have started most of the year:

QB
Drew Brees

WR
Dwayne Bowe, Devery Henderson, Steve Breaston (picked him up when Boldin went down)

RB
Michael Turner,Steve Slaton (started for the 1st time)

TE
Tony Gonzalez

K
John Kasay

DEF
Tennessee

Bench------------

WR
Roy Williams
RB
Brian Westbrook,Le'Ron McClain
QB
Brett Favre
TE
Anthony Fasano
DEF
Tampa Bay

I dangled Brett out for trade bait hoping to get a decent WR. Only person interested first offered Colston straight up. I laughed him off and he countered with Mushin Muhammad & Mewelde More.
Both times I told him I wanted his Fitzgerald or L. Coles.

I just let Sproles go for Slaton and dropped Buckhalter for Tampa's defense.

This is my first time playing FF, it's a 8 team league and I'm tied for 1st. I think that's why no one wants to work a deal with me.

Am I wrong in trying to get a WR that's even as remotely close in points as Brett?

Thanks in advance!

Hope you took my advice...even though Jacobs was damn good today

I'm distraught.

I lost last night against Minny's D because of NO's poor performance AND that last second interception. So, I lost by less than half of a point.

I'm two plays away from being 5-0.

Anyway, who do I start?


Palmer @ NYJ, Schaub v. Miami?
McGahee @ Indy, SJax @ Wash, Felix Jones @ Zona, Rudi @ Minny, Hightower v. Dallas?
Fitzgerald, Houshmanzadeh
Trying to acquire Heap, but if not I'll roll with Stevens
_________
ATL D


I have to use a pickup on a kicker. Who do you think is going to put up more points? Gould @ATL, or Suisham v. StL?

Okay guys.

I'm contemplating RB #2.

1 pt every 10 yds rushing/recieving, -2 fumbles, 4 pts a TD, +3 for going over 100 yds rushing/recieving.

Felix Jones @ Zona, or McGahee v. Indy?

McGahee,the Indy run D is atrocious and giving up huge numbers,I can see both McGahee and Mclain having fantasy worthy days.

Ok a little help.......

Cutler or Warner at QB

At RB I need 2 of this bunch...

Marion Barner, Michael Turner, Ronnie Brown, Steve Slaton

WR 2 of these 3

Brandon Marshall, Cotchery and DeSean Jackson

and Defense..

Chicago or Philly

Wow, Mecca, nice choices..

I don't think you can do any wrong with either of those QBs. But, give me Cutler. Unfortunately, the guy I play in my league ALSO has Cutler going. I am depressed.

At RB I'd take Barber and Ronnie Brown (play him while he's hot).

Marshall and Cotchery. I'd start Jackson if you got points for return yardage.

And roll with Chicago. I only chose Chicago over Philly because I too am starting them against a rookie QB.

I only get retun points if he runs it back and I get the TD points.

Then I say Marshall and Cotchery.

I have to go without a TE today so this is a day of big points needed....I also have Willie Parker on that list of RB's but he's on bye it's weird no one has offered me a trade.

Here we go.....McNabb is on a bye week....who do I start?

Orlovsky vs. Texans? Flacco vs. Dolphins?

Pick 2 RBs out of these 4.

Portis vs. Browns : Lynch vs. Chargers : Forte vs. Vikings : Julius Jones vs. Bucs

Pick 3 WRs out of these 6.

Andre Johnson vs. Lions : Marques Colston vs. Panthers : Santana Moss vs. Browns ; Vincent Jackson vs. Bills : Chad Johnson vs. Steelers : Eddie Royal vs. Patriots


I'm leaning towards this starting lineup.

Orlovsky
Portis
Lynch
A. Johnson
M. Colston
S. Moss

Flacco, Portis, Lynch, Johnson, Colston, then maybe I'd roll the dice on Royal or VJax since Moss has been nonexistent the last couple of weeks.

With Fee-Rix Jones hurt I'm stuck with a dilemma.

Rudi Johnson v. Houston, or McGahee v. Miamuh?

I'm leaning towards Ruuuuuddiiii!!!


Also, do you guys think Eddie Royal or Mason will put up more points this week? Right now I have Housh and Mason as my WRs, since Fitz is on a bye. But, I have a guy who wants one of my K's and Mason and he'll give me Royal.

I'd grab Royal because he's playing the Patriots and he said on Rotoworld.com that he's good to go.

I would probably lean towards Rudi Johnson just because McGahee hasn't done shit so far this year.

For week 9:

Favre vs Bills or Ryan vs Raiders?
NYG vs Dallas or Ravens vs Browns?

Favre has been up and down, and pretty unpredictable point-wise. Ryan has been ona steady climb with lots of yards, so I was considering giving him a shot (especially vs the Raiders).

I was thinking of the Ravens vs the Browns, but wanted opinions.

Matt Ryan against Oakland
Ravens against Browns

Who would you start this week?

Donnie Avery vs ARZ or Braylon Edwards vs BALT?

My lineup currently...

QB-Matt Schaub
QB-David Garrard
WR-Andre Johnson
WR-Larry Fitzgerald
RB-Brian Westbrook
RB-Cedric Benson (my rb's blow and Bush is out)
TE-Zack Miller
W/R-???? Pick
K-Rob Bironaus
DEF-Baltimore

That's a tough one. I might go with Avery just because Bulger loves him. Edwards has the potential to have a huge game though.

Do I go Steve Slaton @ Minnesota or Dominic Rhodes vs. New England? I also have Joseph Addai if he's healthy enough to play

That's going to be one hell of a shootout match. Go with Donnie Avery.

There have been one or two receivers to bust open the Baltimore defense, and Braylon's the kind of player who can do that, but he's just been so inconsistent this year that you may as well go with the hot option right now

Are the Williams brothers suspended for Week 9? If they are....go Slaton.

Seeing as how I just traded for LT, I need a bye week suggestion.

I already have Sammy Morris, and I've put in a claim for Kevin Faulk - but won't know if I have him until Friday morning. Sadly, I think Faulk is my best option against Indy.

I've also been asked if I'd be willing to trade Bowe, who I haven't started once this season. I'd get Tim Hightower (vs Rams) from one owner, or Fred Taylor (Bengals) from the other. It's way to much to give, IMO, but he's just wasting away on my roster.

The wildcard, who is already on my roster, is Ryan Torain from Denver - who plays Miami this week.

If Shanahan wasn't such a schmuck, Torain would likely be my pick. Pittman has a rib issue, and the other two are likely out completely.

Suggestions?

Any word on this yet? I can't find anything. I have Slaton on my bench now but would definitely move him up if those guys are out.

As for QB, Big Ben vs. Washington (injured Shawn Springs)
or
Favre vs. Buffalo.

Both games are away games, and both the Redskins and Bills are around the same in terms of pass defense stats.

Pennington @ Den
or
Cutler

it's a toss up if you ask me. but i'm not asking me. i'm asking you.

Cutler

Need help on this one. Lost 2 games in a row, but I finally have some horses coming off byes:

Ryan Grant vs. Tennessee

or

Willie Parker vs. Washington coming off injury.

Clinton Portis is my other RB.

OK, which 2 WR should i start?

D Bowe
B Berrrian
D Avery

Avery's a must-start, IMO. That game will be a shootout.

I think Thigpen is going to be harassed all day long, I'd go Berrian.

Ok thanks.

Ive had a hard time benching Bowe all season long because he gets so many looks. Hes actually having a very good year in spite of the horrible QB play.

Berrian outperforming Avery today = This is why you should never listen to us. :D

Who do you start??

Ryan Torain vs Cleveland Thursday or Jamaal Charles vs SD?

SD's defense is terrible, and I think our offense is starting to become an offense. On a side note I haven't even hear of Ryan Torain, who is that?

He is the denver rookie RB that finall is active after an elbow injury. There is alot of hype from this guy because of Shanny comparing him to Terrell Davis. With Pittman and Hall out for the year him and Young are likely to get touches. That said im not sure if Torain is in close to game shape.

McNabb vs. Giants or Quinn vs. Broncos?

I'd rather take mcnabb since they chuck it a ton, who knows what Quinn will do and im sure braylon will drop 6 passes

Ryan Torain-The Pride and Joy of Topeka,KS(Even though he went to Shawnee Mission NW)..just thought I'd say that, but in all honesty, I'd go with Jamaal Charles..AND definitely go with McNabb, although Quinn is an interesting option..

Drop Cutler ASAP. Chief fans don't deserve Broncos on their team.

Agreed. Who needs a scrub like Cutler on their FF team?

33-19.

Denver = 1st place
Kansas City = last place
