Donovan Mcnabb @ PHI or Mark Sanchez vs BUF

I'm actually leaning towards the Sanchise.
[/quote]

yeah i'd go sanchez he's really bounced back after he looked so bad week 1

[Shawn`]

Ok, which 2 RB's should I start?

Forte @NYG
Mendenhall vs BAL
MJD vs IND

I'm leaning towards Forte and Mendenhall because that's all the Steelers are going to rely on offense. Forte has been great and should perform big time against NY. MJD has had an ok year so far, he plays good against Indy but JAX might be playing from behind, so I don't know how often he'll run the ball.

[XxSizzleXx]

JAX will be playing from behind so MJD might not get the ball that much. I would go with Mendenhall and Forte because they have been successful so far. How about this one

Roscoe Parrish vs NYJ
Derrick Mason vs PIT

This is tough for me because I have a feeling if I sit D-Mase he will have a big game.

that is a tough one, if you have that feeling maybe you sit mason for the good of the ravens?

nah i'd sit mason anyway. parrish will be up against wilson or cromartie and is surely going to get some catches as the bills play from behind.

[Pedro Rhormes]

Is this a good wr "starters" corp?: DeSean Jackson, Mario Manningham, Terrell Owens, Brandon Lloyd

for this week

next week I will have percy harvin back from bye...Probably pierre garçon after injury...and Miles Austin from a trade with lamarr woodley.

[Wacko4Zacko]

IDK who to sytart!!

Tom Brady against a Miami Dolphins Defense

or

Matt Ryan against a winless 49ers defense.

Now Brady is and always will be great and one of the best, but Ryan has had a couple good games so far.

Wack that shouldn't even be a question. You start Brady.

Matt Ryan I think has yet to throw a pass over 20 yards.

Sure is. DeSean should put up huge numbers. Skins are giving up more fantasy points to receivers than any other team. He's a great WR1 this week. Hopefully one of those other guys plays like a WR2 and then the rest fill in nicely as WR3s.

Derrick Mason. He should play a big role in this possession type game.

You can't bench MJD here. He's playing the Colts. He thrashes the Colts. You start him and if he doesn't put up huge numbers than you start to worry. But Del Rio is starting to play for his job. So he will need to ride MJD here. A big win against the Colts would go a long way. Jax has been doing poorly because they having been utilizing MJD.


Then I would start Forte. Should play a big role in the passing game against the NYG. Mendenhall I wouldn't tough. We've seen this defense bounce back against the Steelers. With Cody playing some in the middle, they won't be running like Cleveland did.

MJD & Forte.

J. Best if he starts against GB or DMC against HOU?
[/quote]

I'm surprised that GB is giving up 114 yards per game in rushing. But then when I think about it, a lot of the rushing yards have come from QBs (Vick & Cutler). But GB is pretty good against the Run. Plus if Best was playing , you'd have to worry about 1) him being limited and 2) Lions fall behind early (even though he is big in the passing game).

I'm going with DMC against Houston. Ride McFadden while he's hot. Houston has been good against the run because teams are passing like crazy on them.

I'm going DMC in a heartbeat with Best ailing.

Who's worth a look to start this week? Ryan Torain, or Chris Ivory/Betts lol
[/quote]

In deep leagues, that is a very serious question you are asking. I am without Moreno, Cadillac is on a bye, Jacobs is a bum and Donald Brown has been ruled out.

Starting "The Law Firm" and hopefully Ladell Betts.

It's tough call though. Betts has been taking snaps w/ the first team. But Ivory will get a lot of touches (incl goaline) but its one of those circumstances where they might just end up riding the hot hand. Who the hell knows who'll that'll be.

Torain is obviously the guy you want long term. But for this week, I'm liking Betts. I see Philly going up on Redskins and the game plan will be to throw. If Portis is a no go (since he's questionable) its Torain since there is no one else on their team.

EDIT: AFTER READING THAT PORTIS WILL PROBABLY BE A 3rd DOWN BACK. I'VE SWITCHED MY MIND TO TORAIN.

Bryant is on a bye so do I start Golden Tate(vs St Loius) or Patrick Crayton(vs Arizona)
[/quote]

Golden Tate. I have a feeling the Hawks want to get him the ball. He's one of those guys where everytime he touches the ball, you think he can score. It looks like Tate and Butler will be the guys soon enough.

Donovan Mcnabb @ PHI or Mark Sanchez vs BUF

I'm actually leaning towards the Sanchise.
[/quote]

Buffalo has the pieces to be a top flight passing D. Plus the Jets should lean on the run in this game. If they get up early, Sanchez's arm might be shelfed in place of Greene.

I expect Redskins to fall behind to the Eagles. The iggles have too much going on offense for the Skins to stop. So McNabb will be throwing either way (if its a shoot out or playing from behind).

McNabb is my pick.

[PuRock]

Phew! I think I answered everybody's start - sit questions in one sitting!

[Pedro Rhormes]

Again Im having some doubts problems...

You see, I don't know if use 3rb, 1 TE and 3 WR...or if I should use 2 rb ,4 wr and 1 TE...or 2 rb,3 wr and 2 te...

My RB'S : Clinton Portis (bench), Ronnie Brown (doubt)/LeSean McCoy (doubt,but should be my starter), Reggie Bush (bench), Darren McFadden (starter).

My WR's: DeSean Jack (starter),Brandon Lloyd (starter),Terrell Owens (Im doubtful on this, its an easy game against browns,but T.O still didn't get many passes),Mario Manningham (doubt,proably starter)...Eddie Royal (bench), Percy Harvin (byeweek),Davone Bess (bench), Jacoby Jones(bench), Pierre Garçon (I believe he will not play, if he would, I would put him)...

Should I keep T.O?Or do something else

TE's: Jeremy Shockey (starter), Tony Gonzalez (doubt)

WHAT IN THE BLUE HELL SHOULD I DO?

If I were you. I'd do this.

Rbs: McFadden, McCoy & Brown (flex)
WRs: DeSean Jackson, Terrell Owens (if he doesn't break out this game, he never will) and Eddie Royal (yes over Lloyd, just don't trust Lloyd and Royal is the only Bronco WR getting CONSISTENT targets). You'll get points from Royal no matter what. Lloyd might have a big game, he might not but you've hedged your losses.

TE: Tony Gonzales. Shockey is in a system where one week he's up , next he's down.

That's what I would do if I were in your shoes. When in doubt go with the RB in a close situation for your flex. Ronnie Brown is averaging 5.4 YPC (against Jets & Minny), loves to play night games, Loves to play the Pats.

[Pedro Rhormes]

thx man
great help

[XxSizzleXx]

Out of these three for my flex spot

Jason Snelling vs SF
Roscoe Parrish vs NYJ
Fred Jaackson vs NYJ

I would side with Snelling. SF has been pitiful, the Jets are a much tougher defense.

Like Berad said, I'd go with Snelling. Parrish [i]could[/i] do have a solid day against the Jets but the match-up is just too poor to rely on him. It's even worse with Jackson as Beast Mode seems to be back and Spiller is going to get touches as well.

[757RavensFan]

Which WR should I sit today?

-Mike Wallace vs Ravens
-Wes Welker vs Miami
-Lance Moore vs Carolina.

welker. the problem with Moore is that he (like purock said about shockey) is in a system where he could be amazing or could get hardly get targeted at all. and for me wallace seems a hit and miss guy at the moment, once Big Ben returns that could be a different story though.

i like welker for his consistancy and although he won't get the big gains he'll get a lot of targets so could put up big numbers anyway

[757RavensFan]

Thanks Ben. I should have made my post clearer. Out of the 3, which 2 would you start?

I'll pick Lance and Welker. Without Big Ben, Wallace is not good against the Ravens.

having just re-read your original question its my bad

its cool. welker and moore then. i see wallace becoming a poor man's desean jackson when big ben is back but not until then.

[dpatrickguy]

Matt Scaub against a decent Oakland secondary and with a struggling O-line (and possibly without Andre Johnson) or Bruce Gardkowski against a Houston secondary that has been torched by QBs thus far this season?

[/quote]

as stated, go with Moore and Welker... I'd actually list Moore over Welker as long as Reggie Bush is out... Moore has historically been good when Bush is out...

[ZIBBY28]

Batch loves throwing to Wallace... he constantly threw his way in the preseason and hooked up with him for TDs twice last week... just saying.

Still, I'd probably go with Moore and Welker to keep myself from feeling good if ANY steeler scores against the ravens

[ZIBBY28]

[quote name='AwakenTheDemon' timestamp='1286047625' post='494204']
If Best starts, I'd be hard pressed to sit him. He's already cemented himself in both the passing and running game.

Imagine that, we can't agree on one or the other... this is what I'm dealing with every week lol
