Jenkins might be a good play b/c of the Denver D.

I know they're only kickers. But, I'm playing the "stacked" team in the league.

I'm in 5th out of 14 teams - top 6 make playoffs.

Do you start Bironas @ JAX, or Gould @ Chicago?

**The Franchise** · 11-18-2008, 01:26 PM

Alright....so Week 12 is a confusing week. I have no idea who to start because of my matchups. So therefore.....choose 1 QB, 2 RBs and either 3 WRs or 2 WRs and a TE.

QBs:

McNabb vs. Ravens
Quinn vs. Texans
Flacco vs. Eagles

RBs:

Portis vs. Seahawks
Forte vs. Rams
Lynch vs. Chiefs
J. Jones vs. Redskins

WRs:

A. Johnson vs. Browns
M. Colston vs. Packers
D. Bowe vs. Bills
R. Brown vs. Ravens
V. Jackson vs. Colts
E. Royal vs. Raiders
K. Winslow vs. Texans

Chicago Defense @ Min
--or--
Baltimore Defense @ Cin
??

Baltimore, no?

**Dartgod** · 11-20-2008, 08:44 AM

Who to start at QB?

Do I use Thiggy again vs. Buffalo or....

Eli @ Arizona
Cassel @ Miami

Scoring: .1 point for every 2 yards, 6 pts per TD pass, no yardage bonus points, -1 per INT

I'm leaning towards Thigpen, but want opinions.

Thanks

That's a tough one. The Giants like to run the ball alot and Miami's secondary is actually performing better now than they were earlier in the year. I think you have to go with Thiggy for one reason. It's almost a guarantee that we're going to be down during the game at some point in time....and Thiggy is going to have to throw the ball.

Now help me out.

Red Brooklyn · 11-21-2008, 02:06 PM

T.O. vs San Fran or
D. Bowe vs Buffalo

who do you start?

Deberg_1990 · 11-22-2008, 07:14 PM

Which three Rb's do i start out of these 6 this week?

Addai
Forte
C Johnson
M Turner
Tatum Bell
McFadden

Deberg_1990 · 11-23-2008, 10:04 AM

Here is another option:

Thigpen
A Rodgers
P Rivers

Who do i start?

IM leaning towards starting Thiggy again.

Red Brooklyn · 11-25-2008, 11:15 AM

yes.
Baltimore

Red Brooklyn · 11-26-2008, 09:50 AM

Roddy White @ San Diego
Terrell Owens @ Seattle
D. Bowe @ Oakland

Which two do I start? White's sorta banged up, but should play. TO has been a bit of a let down all season, but exploded last week and now he's playing in a Thanksgiving game... of course DBowe is playing in a division game... which two should I go with?

and...

Jones-Drew @ Hou
Forte @ Min

normally Forte is a no brainer for me. But Min is 2nd against the run and Hou is like 22nd or something like that against the run. Plus Jacsonville uses Jones-Drew as a reciever a lot. What do you think?

**The Franchise** · 11-26-2008, 10:27 AM

I think you might have to go with White and Owens. I thought Marshall and Royal we're going to blow up on the Raiders last week....but the Raider secondary actually held their own.

Your RB situation is a tough one. This was Forte's stat line against the Vikings in Week 7:
20 attempts for 56 yards and 1 TD. 2.8 ypc average
2 receptions for 17 yards

This was Jones-Drew's stat line against the Texans in Week 4:
7 attempts for 32 yards and 0 TDs. 4.6 ypc average
2 receptions for 17 yards

I think at this point that it's pretty much a toss up. Forte is a work horse who is something like 3rd in the league with percentage of the team's workload. Jones-Drew still splits carries with Taylor but does have the chance to break it for a big gain. So considering that Jones-Drew just played Minnesota and only ran 3 times for 4 yards. I'd say go with Jones-Drew against Houston.
