I guess I'd say Maclin, since I'm gambling on Mike Vick this week.

Good luck to us, Can.

I would probably roll with Bryant. I see Dallas playing from behind the entire game. And their last game against Chicago Romo threw him the ball a lot.

Cruz and White.

I can't ****ing make up my mind on this one.

The homer in me wants to start the Chiefs defense because of how they played last week.

The FF player in me wants to start the Bucs defense because Quinn is under center and RAC is a reerun with his gameplans.

I think I'd be looking for another defense on the waiver wire.

Chiefs have a few starters coming back, and I think TB is missing a DE. But Id still go with TB. They have a good run D that may shut down Charles, Quinn is a turnover machine, and KC overperformed last week due to dropped passes.

Needing a third WR. Pretty much starting Megatron and DJAX. We also get return yardage points.

Cribbs, Boldin, Lloyd, Kerley.

Right now -- I'm leaning towards Kerley.

Start Eric Decker or Andre Roberts?

Both are No.2's who are rising rapidly with more looks and pts each week. With that said I trust the better QB who is proven and that is Manning especially on a Mon nite going against Rivers. I think it will be scoring fest. I realize Kolb is going against Buffalo's weak D at home but I think it Fitz that has the big ass game rather than Roberts. It really is a tough call and I can see your dilemma. But I go with Manning and Mon nite over Kolb and Buff D at home if it were me.

But in the end it could really be a wash.;)

I am starting both my TE's against each other Pitta and Witten because I believe both will have big games because Carr and Claiborn will be focused on T Smith, Bolden, R Rice etc... and Ravens will be focused on Dez, Austin and Murray and Romo always goes to Witten when playing tough D's. With that being said, I do have Dez and will not start him because he has not played well this yr and I do not trust him especially against a tough D on the road.

Your thoughts on starting both TE's against each other and sitting Dez ?

More often than not 'Homerism' always loses. Go with your instinctual intellect and play TB.

Good call Pest !!

You always start an elite playmaker regardless if he goes against a tough D 'WHEN" he has a QB that can get it to him. I have Cruz as well and feel good about it because Cruz is the next up and coming Fitz and Manning can still get it to him.

Also go with White especially against Oak's D. Hell White's getting more looks than Jones and I thought that would change this year but it hasn't because I think D's are more focused on Jones and Ryan has recognized that.

Bowe hasn't worked with Quinn much and don't have a chemistry IMO and this is Quinn's first start in how many yrs? I don't trust that at all. I would trust Baldwin more than Bowe because my guess Quinn has thrown more to Baldwin than Bowe but I could be wrong.

This ! And I am, because I am starting Witten against Pitta and sitting Dez. You are right to start your producers and granted Pitta has cooled down and Witten has started to heat up but I think these guys will be the go to guys tomorrow unless someone can logically convince me otherwise.

Thanks :thumb:

I need to start 3 Wr's out of this group:

R. White (Oak)
B. Lloyd (@ sea)
A. Boldin (Dal)
D. Hixon (@ SF)
A. Roberts (Buf)
R. Cobb (@ Hou)

Definitely going with White, but struggling with the last two slots. Originally I had Lloyd and Hixon in from last week, but now I'm not sure. I'm thinking Boldin and Cobb.......with Cushing out the middle is exploitable, and the GB RB situation is in flux, Cobb could do some damage.

Any suggestions?

With Garçon questionable pick a flex.

We do get return yardage.

Cribbs v. Cincy
DHB @ Atl
Billay Powell v. Indy.

**** it.

I'm starting Ballard over Law Firm.

Sorry can.

i know this is a who do i start thread but i dont want to make a standalone thread just for this trade offer so

i was offered:
Demarco Murray
Nate Washington

for

Percy Harvin

do i do it? Non ppr league my RBs are awful Benjarvis Green Ellis, Alfred Morris, Kendall Hunter, Jackie Battle, Lamar Miller

my WRs are Randall Cobb, Pierre Garcon, Vincent Jackson, Stephen Hill

you can play up to FOUR RBs at once there is a flex spot and a stupid OP slot as well as 2 RB slots.

Your instinct and football intellect is correct on the Cobb start. Roberts is a no-brainer when you compare to Hixon and Boldin's pass defences they will face.

Nope. it's obvious this person doesn't trust the Cowboys and sees Harvin rising. Go back to this person IF the Cowboys turn it around and Murray begins to perform consistently and then get some extra for Harvin if Harvin is still playing big and this person still wants to make the trade. It's a non-ppr league and RB's always get more touches than WRs in general and especially when the 1pt per catch is taken away from the WR(that usually makes up for the lack of touches) it makes RBs more valuable at that point because RBs touch the ball more. But you don't want to trade away a hot playmaker unless you get a fair deal. This could be more than a fair deal especially in a non-ppr league assuming the Cowboys turn it around.

Walk away from the deal but let him know you maybe interested if the Cowboys turn it around because in the long run in a non-ppr league RBs are always more valuable. However, IF you feel for sure the Cowboys will turn it around make the deal but get someone other than Nate Washington off his roster that makes more sense. And always always check the future scheduled defenses of any players offered to you before you make any deal.

Should I start a less than 100% Hakeem Nicks against the niners or Michael Crabtree against the giants?

what if i countered with

I get:
Demarco Murray
Deangelo Williams
Stevie Johnson
Nate Washington

He gets:
Percy Harvin
Jackie Battle
Pierre Garcon
Lamar Miller

that way I buy low on some depth and he gets his one play maker and a bunch of shitters.

I could use the depth. Especially if he is willing to part with all those guys on his bench

Essentially him getting Harvin almost puts him over the hump and into the championship he will have Shady McCoy, Steven Ridley, AJ Green and Percy Harvin as his core. Ugh

so guess what...i benched Dez and he caught 2 tds...and I'm going to lose a close one this week...

it
never
****ing
fails

if I bench you, you will break out

All of that stressing for nothing. Really there was only a 6 point difference. I'm going to lose but not because of my defense. Thanks Matt Ryan.

Anyone else notice Dez Bryant's score is wrong on yahoo?

Does yahoo typically fix it??

yes and yes

ESPN still hasn't credited the Chiefs defensive TD.

Freaking Jordy Nelson. Sitting on my bench with 121 yards & 3 Td's....for 30 points. Kiss. My. Ass.

Oh....and thank you to Rodgers for finally showing up.

Chicago Defense had a bye so i was forced to start houstons...that blocked punt td at the end won the matchup for me by .32 points.

now hoping there are no stat corrections, wow!

-Start Andy dalton vs. Steelers, or Romo vs. Panthers
-Should I accept this trade? - My Andre Johnson for his Green-ellis & Mendenhall?
-Start Cardinals DEF vs. Vikings, or Bears DEF vs. Lions?
-Start Doug Martin vs. Saints, or Alfred Morris vs. Giants?

-Greg Zuerlein vs GB, or Blair Walsh vs Carinals?
-Should I replace my Cardinals DEF with any of these? - Broncos, Redskins, Gaints, Ravens, Chiefs, Rams, Seahawks?

-

-Anquan Boldin vs. Texans, or Andre Roberts vs. Vikings
-Start Devery Hednerson or Lance Moore at Flex (or bench Torrey smith and start both Henderson and Moore)
--Start Josh Gordon or Devery Henderson/Lance Moore (at WR / Flex slot) - (also depending on previous question regarding Henderson, Moore, & torrey smith)

Thanks

Jared Cook vs. Bills or Greg Olsen vs. Cowboys?

-Should I start WR James Jones vs. Rams or RB Doug Martin vs. Saints at FLEX?

Ryan has the bye...need a QB for one week:

Weeden v Colts
Palmer v Jags
Luck v Browns

weeden and luck throw a bunch, and Palmer (leaning towards him) is averaging 280 yards a game

I'm playing Luck this weekend. Think he'll be a good fill in.

Martin. The Saints defense sucks.

Luck

thanks guys

Olsen has a better chance of scoring, IMO.

I’m playing Luck and its not even because of bye weeks. At home against one of the worst pass Ds in the league, and they are missing their only good RB.

Pick a third WR - Jeremy Kerley or Brandon Lloyd.

I'm in a bind. Got P. Manning on a bye.

I can go with Fitzpatrick hosting Carolina, or pick up Josh Freeman (vs that struggling NO D), or Matt Shaub against injury ravaged Baltimore.

Edit: Nevermind. I'm taking a flyer on Andy Dalton.

Different kind of question:

Jimmy Graham is out. Who should I drop to pick up a TE? Donald Brown (IND RB) or Pierre Thomas (NO RB)?

anyone else think Britt could be due for a big day against the bills?

once again i'm looking for a reason to bench BJGE...

Well THAT worked out great. :facepalm:

That's what you get for the sister joke!!!

LMAO All in fun, man.

http://i.imgur.com/fIg6P.png
- I have Andy Dalton on a bye. My other QB is Tony Romo vs NYG. Should I replace him with any of these guys from the waiver wire? (pic above)
-Start Jason Witten vs NYG, or Kevin Rudolf vs Tamba bay?
-Pick two for WR2 and FLEX – Roddy White vs Eagles, James Jones vs Jags, Jeremy Maclin vs Falcons?
-Pierre Garcon looks like he’ll be out until week 10. Should I keep him on my team for when he returns? Or should I replace him?

-Start Dwayne Bowe vs Raiders, James Jones vs Jags, or Brian Hartline vs Jets?

-Start Eli Manning vs Cowboys, or Roethlisberger vs Redskins?
-Start Dwayne Bowe vs Raiders, or Devery Henderson vs Broncos?

-Start Eli manning vs Cowboys, or Stafford vs Seahawks?



Thanks for any advice!

Hell no.

Roddy White.

He's been worthless nearly the whole year. Drop.

No way in hell I'd start Bowe. Hell, he's a perfect example of the type of talent I'd trade now thinking about the last 4 weeks of the year. Keep in mind that fantasy is all about the gloating during the offseason after a win.

If you can't win in the playoffs it doesn't matter what you did before that.

Thanks

Pick 2:

Charles vs Raiders
Martin vs. Vikings
Ridley vs. Rams
Stewart vs. Bears
Jennings vs. Packers

Bolded are my current starters.

Jennings is very appealing. Especially with their shitty QBs. And with Jennings he would be getting all of th work.

RB#2.

Jones v. NYG
Ballard @ Tenn.

I would think Jones would be the must start if Murray doesn't play.

-Should I accept this trade? My Andre Johnson for their Phillip Rivers and Sidney Rice? My other QBs are Dalton and Romo. My other WRs are Maclin, Garcon, James Jones, Josh Gordon, Roddy white.

A bit of strategy here.

This week I play against a team who has Aaron Rodgers and not much else. Greg Jennings is out. Jordy Nelson may be out.

I have Julio Jones, Dwayne Bowe, Randall Cobb, and James Jones at WR. I can start two. I'm starting Randall Cobb and Julio Jones always starts for me.

If both Greg Jennings & Jordy Nelson don't play on Sunday, should I bench Julio Jones and start both Randall Cobb & James Jones to neutralize Aaron Rodgers?

No. I'd go with Julio and Cobb.

I have Nelson as my flex position right now.....but it's looking like he won't play. Pick another player for my flex position.

Stevan Ridley vs. Rams
Jonathan Stewart vs. Bears
Rashad Jennings vs. Packers
Kendall Wright vs. Colts

Seriously? D-Bowe, bro.

Pick a FLEX: Stewart v. Bears, or DHB v. Chiefs?

James Jones.

Jordy Nelson and Greg Jennings are both going to be out.

I've got:

Hankerson (vs. Pit)
J. Dwyer (vs. Was)
B. LaFell (vs. Chi.)
S. Rice (vs. Det.)

Need one 1 WR and a Flex.

Yes Im serious. Bowe is a good FF WR but he's got Quinn at QB who doesn't throw to him as much as cassel. Also Greg Jennings isn't playing and the pack are playing against the Jags.
Thanks.

So, ummm, why'd you even ask?

Opinions.

Yeah, If Jordy Nelson doesn't play either I'd give Jones the nod.

Thanks

Kerley vs the Phins? or Steve Smith against the Bears? I currently have Kerley in my lineup.

so i have a bye week induced dilemma

Aaron Hernandez is out with injury, and to stash him I'd have to drop the Texans defense (2nd highest points in my league)...

drop texans, (and pick up new england's defense v Rams this week) to keep Hernandez on my bench

or

drop Hernandez (and pick up a waiver guy like Bennett) to keep the Texan's D on my bench

Hernandez has been a bust this year with injuries...but as good as the texans defense is, it is still only marginally better than the rest (like 3-4 points a week better)

it's an 8 person league, so there is a chance i might be able to get the Texans back next week, but Hernandez would get picked up for sure..

blah blah blah...thoughts?

Kerley.

Starting Jonathan Stewart over Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Smart or dumb?

yeesh...stewart against chicago sounds like bad news

DHB ain't great, but against the chiefs....i've got moore and am hoping for a big day against our secondary

It is tough. My initial thought was DHB. So maybe, for once, I will go with it. LMAO

Should I take a chance Jimmy Graham plays tonight or start fleener from Indy?
Posted via Mobile Device

In my Flex Pos...start Donald Brown or Denarious Moore?

What do you guys think about Trent Richardson today? Have to decide between a gimpy Richardson, or SJax, who is losing touches regularly. Ugh.

So a new problem this week. Out of this group of players I can start RB x 2, WR x 2 and Flex x 1.

L. McCoy RB @ NO
D. Martin RB @ OAK
T. Richardson RB vs. BAL
J. Charles RB @ SD
D. McFadden RB vs. TB

V. Cruz WR vs. PIT
M. Colston WR vs. PHI
R. White WR vs. DAL
D. Bowe WR @ SD

I'm thinking this. Tell me what you think.

RB - L. McCoy
RB - T. Richardson
WR - V. Cruz
WR - M. Colston
FLEX - R. White

I may be inclined to move D. Martin into the flex spot instead of R. White.

I'd start McCoy, TRich, and flex Martin. Ravens are 28th against the rush. Raiders are 19th even after shutting down KC last week.

-Tony Romo vs. Falcons, or Andy Dalton vs. Broncos?
-Doug Martin vs. Raiders, or Alfred Morris vs. Panthers?
-Santana Moss vs. Panthers, or Jeremy Maclin vs. Saints atFLEX?


-Joe Flacco vs. Browns, or Eli Manning vs. Steelers?
-Santana Moss vs. Panthers, or Ryan Broyles vs. Jaguars atFLEX?


-Ben Roethlisberger vs. Giants, or Eli Manning vs. Steelers?
-Owen Daniels vs. Bills, or Martellius Bennett vs. Steelers?


Thanks!

Romo
Alf
Mac

Flacco
Either

Roethlisberger
Daniels

My choices highlighted in red.
