Depending on the rest of your team, I would play it safe and go with Ryan.

Nate Washington vs. Cincy
or
Heywood-Bey vs. Denver

11/5/2011 4:25:25 PM

Heywood-Bay. Palmer's probably gotten a chance to start developing a rapport with the WR's and Denver's pass D is pretty bad.

Faulk vs. NYG
-or-
McGahee vs. OAK

Any thoughts? Faulk was a FA pickup, he's listed as Probable today but they're projecting him to have double digit points.

11/6/2011 8:21:22 AM

Start 2:

Mike Tolbert
Chris Johnson
Pierre Thomas

11/6/2011 8:57:45 AM

^^Thats a tough one but I would lean towards Willis considering he will most likely see a greater percentage of carries compared to any NE RB.

^Thomas and Tolbert. I wouldn't start CJ until he shows something.

11/6/2011 10:25:30 AM

^ That's what I was thinking. I'm going to keep Faulk on the bench this week and see what his production looks like before using him as a starter.

"you made the wrong advice 2 weeks ago when u questioned me saying to bench lt as he wasnt really the "starting back" vs san diego"

lol he was the starting back and still performed just as well as the guys other option, even though he only played the first half and sat the second due to a mean hit at the very beginning of the 3rd quarter. If he had played the whole game, he would have easily outperformed. The only thing fucking me in all my fantasy leagues is injuries which you have no control over, other than to have good back up plans for injury prone guys like colston or foster

I like your effort to continually troll a false statement that you believe to be correct- hats off sir!

^I agree. I don't like Mcgahee, but I'm starting moreno (who I like even less) as a last ditch effort due to injuries and byes because oakland will allow some running today. we just gotta hope that Tebow doesn't screw the pooch and ruin it for the both of them.

"Thomas and Tolbert. I wouldn't start CJ until he shows something."

I agree... I mean, he is one of those guys that can break out at any point, and I think it is coming soon, but Cinnci has actually been reeeeal good against the run as of late, so I wouldn't risk it. Ingram is still banged up (and not playing as far as I know), and tolbert, well he is tolbert- a vulture worth playing!

11/6/2011 11:42:54 AM

Yeah Ingram is out and TB help Sproles pretty well the 1st time around. Thomas appears to be a decent option this week.

11/6/2011 11:47:28 AM

Pick 2: Roddy White, Miles Austin, Cedric Benson

11/6/2011 11:48:07 AM

KC defense versus Oakland
or
Cincy defense versus Tennessee

?!?

11/6/2011 11:55:11 AM

^^For sure I'd go white, and I like Austin going against a crappy defense...

the only thing about benson is he is back in from the suspension, and tennessee has not been defending the run well as of late...

My rule of thumb is to play a RB and WR over two WR's (unless they are like AJ and Megatron), so I'd go for Benson (as much as I don't like him) and flip a coin on the other two.

^KC plays miami, not oakland, so I'd go them... unless you meant Denver against Oakland, in which case I'd flip a coin (but lean towards denver)

[Edited on November 6, 2011 at 12:00 PM. Reason : e]

11/6/2011 11:58:21 AM

I agree with KC D. Miami is awful.


I'm going to change it up. Pick 3:
Chris Johnson, Cedric Benson, Miles Austin, Roddy White

11/6/2011 12:09:00 PM

now that is truly a head scratcher- the thing about WR's is they can light it up, and they can also get only 2 touches. But both RB's are gonna get 15+ carries... haha I wish I knew better what to tell ya, but my you can see above what I think of CJ this week

11/6/2011 12:11:52 PM

I figure if CJ could not get it done against the Colts he probably wont against Cinci's #2 ranked run D.

11/6/2011 12:15:38 PM

I picked up Ringer last week, because it seems pretty clear which way this is headed.

11/6/2011 12:19:25 PM

Mendendall v. BAL

OR

DeMarco Murray v. Sea (Felix Jones is out)

11/6/2011 12:42:23 PM

wtf, just run the ball from the 1 yard line. dumbass cowboys. this is why you suck in the red zone

11/6/2011 1:45:51 PM

well i guess i should have started julio jones

11/6/2011 2:00:08 PM

Julio Jones outscored my three starting WRs - Dez Bryant, Roddy White and Marques Colston

I hope Beanie, Lesean McCoy and Vick can go off and pick up the slack. Fucking Julio Jones

11/6/2011 4:06:15 PM

Also had julio on the bench. Tom brady sucks balls. Every pick I made in this one league didn't pan out.

11/6/2011 5:20:31 PM

picked up oakland D to cover the bye since they were up against Tebow and I figured I could score some easy INT, Sack and Def TD, now they are getting dangerously close to negative points

11/6/2011 6:47:47 PM

Never doubt the Tebow.

11/6/2011 7:04:14 PM

ndmetcal's bench: where fantasy greatness lives

11/6/2011 7:40:03 PM

The Indy Colts have fucked me hard this year. First I drafted Dallas Clark, and he turned into pure shit once Peyton was declared done. Then this laying down bullshit every week, allowing dudes to just pile up fantasy points against me every time. Drew Brees, Darren Sproles, Matt Ryan, Mike Turner. Looks like they're done impacting me after this week, just in time to fuck me out of fantasy playoffs.

11/6/2011 8:21:35 PM

And Torrey Smith just f'd me.

Need 26 points from Rice to win.

[Edited on November 6, 2011 at 8:34 PM. Reason : .]

11/6/2011 8:32:35 PM

Kevin Faulk was worthless, I'm just going to drop him as I can't see him being much good going forward.

Willis McGahee came through with 33 points in one of my leagues. Glad that hand isn't bothering him.

Mike Wallace stole a touchdown from Antonio Brown last night and sealed up a W for me. Good fantasy weekend.

11/7/2011 9:28:04 AM

unless lesean mccoy can but up 61 points (unheard of) i will suffer my first loss in biofreaks league i need mccoy to do nothing i hate playing against my players across leagues

11/7/2011 9:33:32 AM

Need some trade advice:

I would get: Roddy White, James Starks
I would give: Willis McGahee, CJ Spiller

We get 2 RB, 1 RB/WR, and 2 WR. I currently have Foster and Forte as my running backs (with Cedric Benson on the bench). I have Andre Johnson, Miles Austin, Eric Decker, and David Nelson as WR, but Johnson and Austin are hurt. Do I trade McGahee to get an extra WR?

This guy has McCoy and Battle as his only decent running backs, but he has Welker, Bowe, White, and Cruz as his wide receivers. It is a point-per-reception league, so receivers usually score more points than typical running backs.

11/7/2011 10:41:33 AM

Given your depth at RB, I would make that trade.

[Edited on November 7, 2011 at 10:45 AM. Reason : ing]

11/7/2011 10:44:55 AM

^ I think I'd do that trade - White isn't finding the endzone like he used to, but he's still getting decent amounts of catches/yards that'll help you out until you get Johnson and Austin back

even then White could be a flex play for you

11/7/2011 10:46:58 AM

losing to the last place team really hurts. what an off weekend for my team

11/7/2011 10:47:08 AM

Jake Ballard is available in my league.

Would you guys drop A. Hernandez or Owen Daniels for him? He's been really consistent lately and I feel like Daniels production is going to take a hit with Andre Johnson coming back.

11/7/2011 12:42:00 PM

^ drop Daniels, Hernandez gets too many TDs and is in a pass happy offense

^^^,^^^^ We know Fox likes to run the ball, and I hate to let a guy getting 100 yards a game go. I do need WR help though, I'm thinking I'll accept the trade.

11/7/2011 12:58:24 PM

^^ I would drop Hernandez. Daniels is the #2/3 receiving target for the Texans once Johnson comes back (behind Foster).

11/7/2011 1:35:33 PM

they are within 4 points of each other in my league before this week. Hernandez is a red zone target almost every game.

11/7/2011 3:01:56 PM

I need a WR for week 11, i was planning on picking up Torrey Smith or Steve Breaston, but they both just got picked up yesterday.

Any good players out there that nobody would know? the highest rated FA in my league is like Jerome Simpson, Denarius Moore, etc. Houshmandzadeh is out there..

We do get return yards so the highest projected for the rest of the year are Jacoby Jones and Josh Cribbs

11/7/2011 4:03:42 PM

Is Jacoby Ford available?

11/7/2011 4:06:48 PM

nope.

it doesn't really matter actually, since i'm 1-8. it'd be better if i just don't play a WR and make sure I lose and get the first pick.

[Edited on November 7, 2011 at 4:09 PM. Reason : ~]

11/7/2011 4:08:20 PM

Love looking at Tebow & Jordy on my bench yesterday. Missed out on 33 points leaving those two on the pine. Meanwhile I play our league's last place, winless team and he racks up the points thanks to the shitty Colts (he had Matty Ice & Turner) and VJax losing his mind. Unless Lesean McCoy goes off for 40 points tonite, my playoff hopes are fucked.

11/7/2011 4:50:45 PM

I need forte to have less than 5 pts and Vick and Philly to have 33+ pts in order to win in 2 different leagues... fucking teebow on the bench - he would have sealed the deal in the forte league

at what point should I start playing him over Schaub?

11/7/2011 5:45:57 PM

I have nobody left vs Maclin, Hester, and Chicago's kicker...

I'm up 145-61. ha this would suck to lose. Hello defensive game!

11/7/2011 7:35:55 PM

^^I actually love looking at situations like this. For these two guys I don't think there is a certain point in the season that you start playing Tebow above Schaub, but I would instead play the matchups week to week, espcially with Johnson coming back at some point.

Texans Broncos
10 HOU@TB DEN@KC Tebow (if Johnson plays then Schaub)
11 Bye NYJ@DEN Tebow
12 HOU@JAC DEN@SD Schaub
13 ATL@HOU DEN@MIN Toss up, but give homefield advantage to Schaub
14 HOU@CIN CHI@DEN Tebow (he played decent in cold weather last year)
15 CAR@HOU NE@DEN Tebow (Another toss-up. You got to think that Houston will be running alot in this game compared to Denver playing from behind and passing.)
16 HOU@IND DEN@BUF Schaub
17 TEN @ HOU KC @ DEN Schaub (depending on playoff scenerio at this point, would Schaub be sitting?)

Just my opinion based on current points against in a standard scoring league, and certain advantages/disadvantages. It's going to depend on a ton of factors as well (injuries, etc.) If you are looking to drop one in favor of the other though, I don't think I could personally choose Tebow over Schaub at this point.

11/7/2011 10:09:13 PM

Our keeper league has been doing 3 keepers for the past few years, but is talking about upping it to 6 this next season. Seems like a lot of keepers to me, especially for a standard size roster

11/7/2011 10:50:21 PM

i am in one with 5 keepers in an 8 man league and it is too many however the draft is faster. i think in a keeper league you should be able to make trades in previous years based on draft picks in the future years that would make it more interesting

11/8/2011 8:51:52 AM

Pick One:

Crabtree vs NYG
Decker vs KC
Mike Williams vs Hou

11/8/2011 9:17:42 AM

Decker and Crabtree. The Giants are good against the run and will attempt to bottle up Gore. That should open up the passing game.

11/8/2011 10:20:42 AM

Fiance has both Desean Jackon and Jeremy Maclin. Is wanting to offer Jackson or Maclin, to a guy for either Colston or AJ Green. What do you think would be the fairest most beneficial trade offer?

Jackson for Colston?
Jackson for Green?
Maclin for Colston?
Maclin for Green?

thoughts?

11/8/2011 10:57:39 AM

Maclin for Green

11/8/2011 11:09:37 AM

anybody know if felix jones is coming back for this week? thoughts on devaluing demarco murray?

what about shonn greene? is that turd 100% or should i look into joe mcknight?
