another week, many more questions lol

Qb:
Peyton Manning vs SD
Mike Vick vs CHI

i was leaning toward Mike Vick, i have a feel the eagles/bears will be a high scoring game.

RB: pick 2 and a flex
Jamaal Charles vs SEA
Leshaun Mccoy vs CHI
Michael Turner vs GB
Peyton Hillis vs CAR

i was going for Charles, and Hillis, with mccoy in the flex, good or bad?


WR:
Dez Bryant vs NO
Miles Austin vs NO
Steve Johnson vs PIT
Wes Welker vs DET
Pierre Garcon vs SD

and finally at TE:
Aaron Hernandez vs DET
Jacob Tamme vs SD
[/quote]

I agree with bears/eagles being high scoring and Vick could very easily put up the same passing stats as Manning + you get the rushing so go with him.

Charles, Hillis and McCoy in Flex i agree with as well

Steve Johnson (a must start at the rate he's going)
Welker v Lions Pass D should put up solid numbers
then its pretty much a toss up between Austin and Bryant, either of them could be Kitna's go too guy for that game. I'd go with Austn

Then Tamme at TE, don't know why just think he'll have a good game

Peyton Manning it what should be a 30-something to 30-something game. Chicago front 7 is mobile enough to keep Vick pedestrian.

Hillis with just an awesome matchup. And he is just being featured so much to be ignored. Jamaal Charles and McCoy. Turner just doesn't get into the pass game which hinders him. If he doesn't score you get a dud.

Steve Johnson. He has earned must start and the Bills w/ conventional wisdom should be down in this game. The only way they'll have a chance is if they throw. 2nd guy I would go with Dez Bryant. Austin outshined him last week with the 2 grabs for TDs. But Dez is still the guy for Kitna and is getting a lot of targets.

Jacob Tamme no doubt. If Gates doesn't play he's the top TE. Hernandez has fallen off the map, it might not be a bad thing to look on the waiver wire for a replacement.

As my third WR/RB option: Fred Jackson, Marshawn Lynch, Nate Washington, or James Jones?

Keep in mind Lynch has been terrible, and Jackson will go against the Steelers.
[/quote]

Hmmmm. That's a tough one. Is it a ppr league? I'd almost have to go with who will get the most touches. Fred Jackson has a horrible matchup but he will get a lot of touches and swing passes out of the backfield. If it is a ppr league, it might not be a extremely horrible play.

I just cut Lynch in a ten team league. Shows how high I am on him. Nate has a QB who is rusty (pun intended). I own both Fred and James together in a ppr league. I wish Driver would just go away and James would be stellar. But I can't trust him w/ Driver playing. I feel like I'll start him and he'll get like 1 catch. Right now I have Freddie in my flex. But I weighing my other options and hoping a couple guys are healthy enough to play over Jackson.

Ricky Williams Vs Oakland or Shonn Greene vs Cincinnati in my PPR league?

Oakland is porous versus the run (25th) but Cincinnati isn't far behind (23rd). Neither back is used much as a receiver, so I don't really think PPR will come into play.
[/quote]

Shonn Greene. He is eclipsing LT in amount of carries per game.

another week... more question marks. I'm thinking of going against a fantasy football rule of mine yet again and starting a receiver in the flex, but idk, I guess I shouldn't complain about the "problem"

Need 1 Receiver and 1 Flex:

.25 PPR 20 yards = 1 point for WRs and RBs

Wes Welker - Detriot
Mike Williams (TB) - Baltimore
Vincent Jackson - Indianapolis

Shonn Greene - Cincinnati
*Joe Addai - San Diego
*Jahvid Best - New England
*Jonathan Stewart - Cleveland

*if they play

I almost [i]have[/i] to go with 4 receivers (along with Megatron and Fitz), right??
[/quote]

I'd go with Mike Williams as WR2. Our Secondary can be had *gulp*. And I'd roll the dice with V-Jax. I am doing that in my ppr league. The reports are that he looks stellar in practice and is in excellent football shape. All the other WRs on that team are beaten up and broken. V-Jax is healthy and ready to go on a high power offense against a questionable defense.

So yes I'd go with 4 WR.

i like bryant as well, kitna's been working with him all season (on 2nd team offense) so they've got a bit of a chemistry also austin will be the defenses main focus. i think bryant goes over 100 yards today.

my question is:
Mario Manningham v Jags
or Percy Harvin @ Redskins?

i'm leaning towards manningham now that nicks and smith are out, just want some thoughts on it

I hope you didn't go with my advice. Bryant was abysmal or better yet non-existent. Giving up a big fat 0. Well he losses my vote of confidence. He seemed to be on a fast track but got totally shot down today.

I don't know if I can trust either Austin or Dez going forward. Austin is getting lucky. Last week it was two catches for two TDs and this week its a 60 yard run for a TD. I just can't rely upon that production. Then when you think Dez is breaking through he has a game like this. Ugly, Ugly.

I've got a good one...again.

Start 2 out of 3: Rice, Mendenhall, Foster
[/quote]
I'd go with Mendenhall and Foster.

All 3 are great options though.

Edit: I thought Foster was going against the Jags. I'd go with Rice and Mendenhall in that case.

Rice is goin against the 29th ranked run defense, and Mendenhall's goin against the bills. i'd start them two cause Foster against Tennessee and they've held most RBs in check. so go with Rice and Mendenhall IMO

Yeah, well look what Foster did against the Jets last week! I didn't start him last week, I started Rice and Mendenhall and missed Foster's 24 points performance. I do realize that it wasn't as likely for Foster to put up that kind of performance against the Jets, though.

I really think that Rice is going to tear it up over these last few games, and prove why he should be taken in the late 1st to early 2nd in FF next year. Leave him in, even when we play Pitt. Mendenhall is the one that you can mix in and out, but start Foster all the time too. Pitt's OLine is just a mess.

You're benching Foster? The man has been basically match-up proof.

Johnny Knox (vs. PHI minus Asante Samuel), Mike Williams (TB) or Percy Harvin (against the miserable WAS pass defense)?

If Williams wasn't playing us then I would definitely choose him, but I try as hard as I can to not play anyone playing the Ravens

Well, so far it's been a good thing that I benched Mendenhall for Foster. Currently, Foster has 20 points and Mendenhall has 14. I just need Rice to do better than Mendenhall.

Looks like Gates is active and will start. I have Gates and Tamme as well as McMichael. Anyway, Gates or Tamme?

I currently have Tamme in there but thinking I should go with Gates but you just don't know with his injury.
