devin hester or Joshua Cribbs....


I have given up on derrick mason in lieu of a my returners... they each got 16 and 18pts respectively last week cause we get great points on return yards


now do I start Hester who might have more looks as a WR or Cribbs who will get a couple reverses (possibly for a break) and who had over 200yds returning last week... Hester plays Pittsburgh and Cribbs is up against crappy denver- I'm torn

9/20/2009 10:50:56 AM

anyone know the latest on whether pierre thomas is going to play today? i got lucky when i played ricky williams last week but i dont think williams is going to have another good game today, but then again i dont wanna get screwed over playing thomas and then having him sit...

9/20/2009 10:51:58 AM

i didn't think he was gonna play today- and this is the last I heard

Quote :

"Thomas (knee) was limited in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable this week against Philadelphia, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports."

I wouldn't start him, because even if he does play, I feel like it is still gonna be the Brees show

9/20/2009 10:57:21 AM

i think you're right, not to mention they're playing philly.

anyone think rashard mendenhall is going to have a better game this week?

9/20/2009 11:01:16 AM

Good news on Boldin... but I'm still wary.

My WRs are:

G. Jennings
A. Johnson
A. Boldin
P. Crayton
B. Marshall

So Jennings and Johnson are a given. Do I risk Boldin? Start Crayton and hope Romo goes long a few times?

9/20/2009 11:03:58 AM

i'm not going to weigh in on your decision until I get an answer on mine


ok, I have to weigh in on yours, but I expect a response to my deliema soon!


I would start crayton

chicago is playing pitt (sans polamalu) and cutler had a horrible game last week, but he'll still probably put up a lot of passes and most of those will go towards hester. given that i dont have enough fantasy knowledge to know about cribbs, i cant intelligently comment further than to say id play hester. you drafted hester higher than cribbs for a reason, might as well play him.

9/20/2009 11:11:10 AM

Baltimore D/ST vs. San Diego (and Rivers is my QB)
or
Atlanta D/ST vs. Delhomme

[Edited on September 20, 2009 at 11:13 AM. Reason : asdfas rivers]

9/20/2009 11:13:42 AM

^^^ Well, ESPN said Thomas WILL play but he'll be limited and Bell will be the feature with Bush the #2. Don't expect more than 5-7 carries.

Also, I'd start Hester. If this is in a league with return yards especially (I know Bobby's league is, but I think he is a FA still).

[Edited on September 20, 2009 at 11:15 AM. Reason : x]

9/20/2009 11:14:07 AM

^^Atlanta

Rivers will find a way to pass for 250-300 against the Ravens with a lot of dumpoffs to Sproles and Gates. Atlanta will get credit for INT's/Fumbles against CAR.

Should I start...

PIT D vs. CHI
WSH D vs. STL

9/20/2009 11:16:52 AM

Biofreak - Cribbs over Hester

NYM410 - You have to start Boldin. He was limited, but he practiced all week.

Dweedle - Start Atlanta's D. Thier offense is potent and will force Delhomme to stay in the game. It's tough to not start any D that is facing the Panthers right now.

UNREAL DOWNPOUR IN TENNESSE vs. HOUSTON TODAY. TEMPER EXPECTATIONS FOR CHRIS JOHNSON, WHITE, GAGE, ANDRE JOHNSON, SLATON, O. DANIELS, SCHAUB, ETC.

9/20/2009 11:20:53 AM

yea i actually picked up the ATL defense JUST BECAUSE they are playing carolina

and i hated to started baltimore's where when it gained, it would just offset anything by Rivers, but i do want to start the one of course that will get more pts

9/20/2009 11:27:32 AM

^^with that in mind, would you start Slaton over Julius Jones or Willis McGahee? I just fear Slaton will have a dismal game (as well as the rest of the Houston offense) like last week, while Jones and McGahee have better chances of getting in the end zone.

[Edited on September 20, 2009 at 11:29 AM. Reason : .]

9/20/2009 11:29:16 AM

We all have the Slaton question, lol. So I'm looking for an answer as well.

^^^^Not bad options either way, I'd almost go with Washington, b/c St. Louis was just awful last week. Plus Polamalu is out.

^^dweedle, I did the same exact thing. I had the Pats D, but saw that the Falcons D was out there with Carolina coming to town.

2 Questions:

QB (McNabb is hurt)
Jason Campbell Vs. StL
Brett Favre Vs. Det

RB (Pick 2)
Steve Slaton Vs. Ten
Cadillac Williams Vs. Buf
Mike Bell Vs Phi

I'm leaning Slaton and Cadillac, but with Pierre Thomas being limited, it's making me think about Bell.

[Edited on September 20, 2009 at 11:33 AM. Reason : slaton]

9/20/2009 11:30:12 AM

^^ Still start Slaton over those guys

^ Campbell. They are going to get him on track today, and it's a great matchup to do so.

Of those RB's, I would actually lean towards Slaton and Bell. It's very hard to recommend Caddy in a 3 way timeshare over someone who is playing as well as Bell is or someone with as much upside as Slaton.

I could end up being wrong here, but I see a low yardage total for Bell (80 combined) but at least 1 TD.

9/20/2009 11:40:29 AM

2 questions for me...

one of these RBs:

Darren Sproles vs. Bal (LT is out)
Larry Johnson vs. Oakland
Ricky Williams vs. Ind.

and one of these WRs:

Derrick Mason vs. SD
Torry Holt vs. Arizona
Santana Moss vs. StL

Leaning towards Sproles despite a bad matchup and Mason, any thoughts?

9/20/2009 11:41:11 AM

my starting RBs and WRs are out. So...

LeSean McCoy or Donald Brown
Lance Moore or Earl Bennett

PPR league

9/20/2009 11:41:29 AM

WES WELKER IS OUT

Quote :

"Wes Welker (knee) is inactive for the Week 2 game against the New York Jets, according to NFL.com Joey Galloway will take his place in the starting lineup, and should be a solid play this week. Also, this means more targets for Randy Moss and tight end Ben Watson. "

9/20/2009 11:42:04 AM

^^^Dont overthink.

Sproles and LJ.

Santana Moss (again, they are going to get that passing game going. I would start both Cooley and Moss in any situation where you are on the fence)

^^ Donald Brown (He actually gets reps)
Lance Moore (based on what I saw last week against the Packers, I dont feel confident about any Bears WR, especially against the Steelers)

BOOYAH! I BEAT ESPN WITH THE WES WELKER REPORT!!!

- The Guru

9/20/2009 11:45:15 AM

^ thanks for the heads up. I wonder if my opponent knows this...he hasnt removed welker from his lineup yet

9/20/2009 11:45:25 AM

PIERRE WILL PLAY IN A LIMITED ROLE TODAY

9/20/2009 11:46:26 AM

i picked up mike bell, instead.

9/20/2009 11:50:56 AM

cant decide between fred jackson and ray rice. Jackson is the featured back while Rice is mainly between the 20's but rice is much more explosive and has a better chance of breaking long runs.

9/20/2009 11:58:35 AM

i'm not sold on Jackson. go with Rice

** having that said.....I can't decide to go with Rice either. pick two:

Gore (SEA)
Slaton (@TEN)
Rice (@SD)
Bell (@PHI)

[Edited on September 20, 2009 at 12:16 PM. Reason : 2]

9/20/2009 12:13:46 PM

Pick 1:

Darren Sproles vs. BAL
Jamal Lewis vs. DEN
W. Parker vs. CHI

All kind of meh choices because of either matchup (Sproles), fatness (Lewis) or general lousiness (Parker).

Thoughts?

9/20/2009 12:17:21 PM

why on God's green Earth would you not play Sproles?!?!?!

9/20/2009 12:19:50 PM

^^^ definitely take gore and rice out of that group. Slaton does well against the Titans but Panthro mentioned the weather could be a huge factor.

^^ thats a bad group but sproles has the best chance to succeed (mainly through checkdown passes and screens).

I just picked up atlanta's defense to start over NYG- I hope my gamble pays off

9/20/2009 12:22:52 PM

^ I picked up ATL DEF too, but NYG DEF should have a good game. Points might be scored but I see a lot of sacks and turnovers in that game. I would start NYG.

9/20/2009 12:24:07 PM

it's hard for me to do that morally as I'm a cowboys fan, and I have Barber starting in both of my money leagues

I'm thinking about starting Lendale White though in his place in one league (but only if I get some inside information that he is back on the tequila train)

[Edited on September 20, 2009 at 12:28 PM. Reason : euvpies]

9/20/2009 12:27:22 PM

I really don't think that Carolina is going to totally shit the bed for ATL's defense like everyone thinks they will.



Boldin is active vs. Jac, but is he going to be any more effective than last week? I could play Louis Murphy vs. KC instead. Thoughts?

9/20/2009 12:31:10 PM

I may never answer another question of yours after that.

Boldin vs Murphy?

W W

9/20/2009 12:34:40 PM

Rackers is still out there...

should i drop Robbie and pick up Neil?

9/20/2009 12:37:21 PM

^you gotta have a policy like that or people will post anything

9/20/2009 12:37:29 PM

fuck you guys

bunch of fucking douchebags

of course I would expect some clown on a fucking messageboard who self-styles himself as a "guru" to be completely full of himself

it's not like Boldin was so hurt last week that Cardinals had him out there as basically a decoy

go choke on a bowl of dicks

9/20/2009 12:39:11 PM

My wide outs suck so I need some advice...
Out of this group I need at 2 WR and a WR/RB

Chester Taylor
Dwayne Bowe
Bernard Berrian
Braylon Edwards
Knowshon Moreno
Jonathan Stewart
Ted Ginn Jr.

9/20/2009 12:39:26 PM

Id go with Bowe and Edwards, Berrian is a decent pick but until favre gets him in the plays dont pick him

and then Probably Stewart for the other slot



pick one Justin Gage WR Tenn vs Houston

or

JCotch WR Jets vs Patriots


pick two

Jonathon Stewart vs Atlanta
Jamal Lewis vs Denver
Carnell Williams vs. Buffalo

[Edited on September 20, 2009 at 12:41 PM. Reason : g]

9/20/2009 12:40:00 PM
