Sometimes you need help. This is the place.
I start things off. Fred Jackson vs nyj or frank gore vs Ind for the flex

It sounds like bush will play but bell will definitely be getting most Of the touches. It's a gamble cuz foster is a proven rb 1. I wish I had that dilemma.... All my rbs went down last weekend-__-

I want to play Colston but I don't want to get burned again. I'll play Colston because he's safer

No flex, just 2 RB slots.

It depends if you have room to fail, at least for me. My opponent this week started Dwayne Bowe, so he only got 1 point for his 3rd WR. Because of this, I have a little lee-way at 3rd WR and so I'm taking the gamble and starting Royal over Colston and Boldin because he's the hot play with a lot of upside right now.

I hear you, I think Washington is going to have to pass a lot to keep up with Detroit and could possibly abandon the run in the second half if they're getting blown out so I'd go with foster.

Hahaha, fuck me, i knew that too.. Boldin has been playing phenominally this season, constant deep threat with him on the field, i would be very hard pressed to bench him.

Colston will get his. I would play Coltson. I would give it another week to roll the dice with Royal. You never know though man.

Yeah. The only way I sit Colston this week is if he aggravates his foot injury. I'm feeling Boldin getting me 15 points and Doug Martin is gonna go for 150 with 2 TDs. Last week I was able to win with Bodin and Colston getting me a combined 6.9 points.They're not doing that two weeks in a row. I can win this

I'm having a tough decision on who to start at TE, I picked up James Cameron as a steal in the 14th round of one of my drafts, then picked up Thomas from Denver after having these stellar games. Who should I start this week, it's a rough spot in Cleveland and Gordon comes back this week off suspension. I figure him and the shaky qb situation will eat into his looks.

It's a tough one because Cleveland will be throwing the entire game because they have no running game but it is their 3rd stringer. I would go with Thomas

darly richardson or reggie bush? both my top running backs are injured so iv got to choose between one of these for rb 2. played bowe at flex -__-

Reggie bush. The man is guaranteed a touchdown. Might split time a bit with j.bell but I wouldn't be surprised if he has 2 tds a game all year.

He hasn't got a touchdown yet... But I do love him I. That offense. If he was completely healthy it would be a no brainer.

I thought he had a TD the first game, I went and checked and I guess I was wrong. My bad dude. Still would start him over Richardson.

Yeah, go with Thomas. Gordon will eat into his looks and Willis McGahee could see some action as well.

Bush is hurt, but so is Richardson, so start him over Richardson. J. Bell will get the TDs, but Bush will still accumulate some yards. St. Louis is really more of a passing offense.

I've got another for you all. Richardson or Gore, SF says Gores touches will only increase going forward. That being said, He is a beast, but has not produced much, stick with Richy? or give Gore another chance?
Posts: 9415

Trent or Daryl? Actually either way I'd go with Gore this week

yea man i totally got butt fucked that game, im gonna lose this week, his projected points were the deciding factor in my matchup this week, he aint my #number one but i think i got trade raped

I totally fucked myself this year. Unless he picks it up. Iv got Torrey smith and tavon Austin but I was counting on consistency from bowe. I went with three rbs early instead of wr. My two top rbs are hurt and my wr isn't producing. I'm still 2-0 an I'm not completely out this week as his guys have tough matchups. So we will see how it goes.

Lamar Miller or Bilal Powell at flex? Both had good games last week. Powell is projected for 8.5 points and Miller is projected for 9.5. Powell is going up against Buffalo and Miller is facing Atlanta. Who should I start and who do you guys think is more likely to get a touchdown?

I really don't think that the NYJ-BUF game is going to be that high scoring. That being said I have no idea what's gonna happen in that Miami-Atlanta game. I've heard upset watch on that one. That one could be a shootout but I don't know how much Miami will be running the ball but Atlanta's linebackers are weak so Miller has a good chance of pulling in some receptions underneath and maybe a score. That's who I'd play but it's a close one

Jordan Cameron or Julius Thomas? I like Thomas cuz of his qb but there are also a lot more mouth in that offense.

I'm starting Thomas, but that's because he's my only TE. I think either would be a good option

On NFL countdown they are saying start Charles Clay, I have 3 leagues, I have Cameron in all of them. In my yahoo league I have Cameron and Gronk, obviously not playing Gronk but again Cameron is there alone, and Clay is on FA. Would you snag Clay and play him this week? My previous Cameron question was directed towards my espn league.

Playing Clay over Cameron? I would but that's a really close one

That is what I was thinking. Its so close to me I have feeling Clay might bust...
Posts: 9415

Karma: 10,861
Well it's tough because Clay is going against a better defense but he also has the better quarterback

I'm liking Lamar Miller this week. Atlanta's defense is really banged up, and wasn't really that good to begin with.

Didn't read thoroughly enough to see if it's been answered already, BUT
Russell Wilson
or
Matt Stafford

JUST IN! watch Daryl Richardson's Foot today, He did not do much in practice and has been wearing a boot around. Sit em boys.

I'd go with Stafford. Jacksonville is so bad that the only way Wilson has a decent fantasy game is if he throws for 3 TDs in the first quarter because they are going to get a lead early and run the ball.
