I rolled my way into the semis, where I get the privilege of facing our regular season winner. I badly want this one. I'll win quite a bit of cash for finishing even second, so obviously a win would guarantee at least that.

 

I picked up Lance Moore and plan to start him on Thursday night over Braylon Edwards.

 

I didn't think I would be asking this until recently, but should I start Matt Schaub at home against TEN or Eli on the road at DAL? I've had Schaub stashed on my bench for awhile now and didn't even realize he was back last week. Of course he went off.

 

Also, I'm sitting on the Bears D now. They still score well, but I agree with the CW that they are gonna get torched this week. The best alternatives on the WW would seem to be GB at JAX or New England at OAK.

 

Thoughts?

I got a couple little dilemmas in my leagues. (3 leagues, 3 final 4's!)

 

One league: 3 RBs. Steven Jackson, Michael Turner, D'Angelo Williams. Has worked to perfection all year as Jackson was one of the top RBs early. Turner was great in the middle. Williams has been great recently w/ Jackson hurt.

 

Williams is a lock vs. a bad Denver D. But do I go w/ Turner vs. TB or Jackson vs. Seattle. On one hand, TB just gave up 300 yards to Carolina and looks vulnerable. On the other hand, TB is a good D and will be desperate to stop Turner.

I know it's risky, but I like Jackson's chances.

 

I need to choose one RB between these two guys: Slaton vs. TEN or Jacobs vs. DAL

I'd start Slaton. I don't think Jacobs is gonna play. If he does play, he will won't see a ton of time nursing an injury with the Giants already clinching the division. If anything, Jacobs will play a bigger role next week when home field is on the line vs. Carolina. This game is essentially meaningless for the Giants.

i have these same three RBs going against you this week in our keeper league.

 

i think jackson has a big game this week.

Two votes for Jackson? None for Turner? I'm leaning toward Turner actually. However, this is a PPR league and Turner does not factor in the passing game at all. He's good for a TD though.

 

Do more to convince me of Jackson other than a hunch.

Seattle is 21st in the league in run defense

 

that's all i got

Jackson hasn't had a good game since week 7, that's a hell of a leap of faith to take. you don't need to make that gamble, Turner is the 5th most productive RB in fantasy football.

 

thinking about matchups over talent caused me to start Hillis over Deangelo Williams and nearly ruin my season. Turner's scored more points than Peterson

Few tough choices for me as well.

 

Cutler at Carolina or Campbell at Cin. - Cutler has been pretty solid, but Cincy is pretty bad gotta go with Cutler right

 

Starting Adrian Peterson and Ronnie Brown

 

Starting Steve Smith (Car) and Marquis Colston

 

Need 1 more from the following

 

Mwelde Moore vs Baltimore

Carnell Williams vs Atl

Tatum Bell vs Carolina

Tashard Choice vs NYG

 

Also have available on Waivers

 

Reggie Williams vs GB

Devin Hester vs NO

Cutler should start every week. And Caddy. I don't like any of those 6 options though.

Im going with Turner in that same situation.

 

Pick Two

Roddy White

Calvin Johnson

Andre Johnson.

 

The Johnsons both have terrible contracts

Always start Andre. And I'd probably go with Calvin. Roddy White has had 1 good games vs. Tampa in his career, that was as a rookie.

Ok.....Lee Evans against the 31st rank passing defense of the Jets in Jersey (light wind, 43 degrees and 10% precip) or Tory Holt against the 32nd rank passing defense of the Seahawks in the Dome?

Pick one for my second RB spot:

Frank Gore

DeShaun Foster

Willie Parker

Tatum Bell

Cadillac Williams

Tashard Choice

 

 

Then, pick one for Flex:

All of the options listed above except for who you recommend for the RB spot above

Davone Bess

Braylon Edwards

Deion Branch

Mark Bradley

 

Lotta crap with even potential for good games for two spots...

 

I'm leaning towards Cadillac and Bess right now...

Gore is inactive today; Foster is going to start for San Francisco.

I love fantasy football. I got nothing from Lance Moore on Thursday (who I started for Edwards) and not much more from anyone else not named A-Pete, but my opponent's team totally crapped the bed. I need 1.18 points from Eli tonight to win and advance to the finals.
Posted
Going to the finals in 2 of my 3 leagues.

 

Already there in the other with a 22 point lead going into next week.

Me too. Andre Johnson and Adrian Peterson have carried both of my teams.

Posted
I started Portis, Lee Evans, Boldin, Deion Branch, and Cadillac Williams today. :cry: I was the runaway winner during the regular season, but Portis, Gore, Parker, and Graham didn't hold up physically. Boldin and Evans picked a bad time to crap the bed. If Philadelphias DST puts up like 40 points tomorrow night, I could move on, but that ain't gonna happen.
Posted
Eli got me my one point but not much more. Either way, I'm in the finals and putting some nice coin in my pocket, win or lose. Haven't won a league since 2005, so I'm due.

definitely bench Megatron of those three. we don't even know who's throwing to him this week and the other two WR are as good as it gets
oops

 

in my defense though i had the misapprehension Orlovsky, whom I like quite a bit, was on IR and Henson was going to start or something
