Sit/Start Week 7

[Smack]

Need a Flex:

Ryan Grant @ CLE

Jonathan Stewart vs. BUF

Kevin Walter vs. SF

Percy Harvin @ PIT

Ted Ginn vs. NO

 

I'm leaning Grant, but Kuhn keeps stealing his TDs! It seriously makes me want to break things.

I'd think Grant could get some long TD runs this week. Though I've also heard that the Packers' plan with Ahman Green might be to use him in a goal-line role. I'd still go Grant, though.

 

I need two receivers out of this group:

 

Harvin @ Pit

Manningham v Ari

Ochocinco v Chi

 

Leaning toward Manningham and Ocho, but I'm not sure.

[UMFan83]

Isn't Harvin banged up? I'd go with Ocho and Manningham.

 

I need 3 RBs out of this group:

Slaton (vs. SF)

Benson (vs. Chi)

Portis (vs. Phi)

Mendenhall (vs. Min)

Maroney (@ TB)

 

I'm pretty locked into Slaton and Benson, so it's the 3rd spot I'm worried about. Portis has been mediocre and hasn't gotten into the end zone much and is very banged up but will play. Mendenhall has a really tough matchup against Pittsburgh.

 

I'm actually leaning towards Maroney for 3 reasons:

1) (biggest) His RB partner Morris is out tomorrow

2) He had a good game last week (120+ yards TD)

3) Tampa Bay's run D is mediocre at best, and TB sucks so NE could be running a lot later.

 

So I'm leaning Maroney but I want to run it by the board to see if I'm being a huge idiot not starting Portis or Mendenhall.

It's hard to play well when your own teammates don't have your back.

I'm in the same boat with Mendenhall and Maroney. I have both (and also Reggie Bush, but I've ruled him out) and only one spot left. I'm probably going with Mendenhall, even though he faces a tougher opponent. I still don't trust that Maroney will get a big enough workload, even with Morris out. Mendenhall has already been named the starter, so he's a lock to get a lot of touches.

 

Man, it's gonna piss me off when Maroney gets like 20+ carries tomorrow and has a big day.

Your running backs have been pretty lousy this year.

[kujay]

Just need Jason Campbell to keep sucking tonight. Have Philly D going against Westbrook, down by 2. Averages say I should win tonight, but this season has been a struggle.

Okay, I really do hope Westbrook is okay. But this is going well.

eh. steven jackson is still on pace for like 1500 yards and lots of receptions, he just can't get into the endzone. gore scored a ton of points for me in the first 2 weeks before he got hurt, so i think he'll be fine. mendenhall has been nice since he's been starting. the others pretty much suck, but i've gotten good weeks from choice and bush as fill ins.
