In a non-PPR league where throwing td’s are worth 4 points, I am starting Eli Manning and have Jon Kitna on the bench. Who should I go with?
Thanks again if you can get to me
I have Eli myself in one league and am starting him … but I don’t want to. I’d start Kitna
trying to win my way into two championship games this week end, in the first league 3 rcpt = 1 pt 1 yd = .1 pt. starting chris johnson at one rb, which 3 i should start with him {we can start 2rb/2wr or 1 rb/3wr}, roddy white, greg jennings, steve johnson, dwayne bowe, jahvid best, or tashard choice, a couple weeks ago this was a good problem, now given some qb situatuions there are some issues.
my other league, 2 rcpt = 1 pt, 1 yd =.1. which 3 wr should be in my lineup along with vick, foster and mccoy ; calvin johnson, tb williams, mike wallace, or steve johnson
thanks for your opinion
Tough. Cold weather in GB and backup Flynn going. I’d go with White, Johnson and Bowe myself. You might consider Best for Johnson but Best has been a non-factor.
Bench Stevie Johnson.
Hi. Non PPR league. Still not sure who I want for my flex start. My options are Ryan Torain, Miles Austin or Mike Williams of Tampa. Any advice? Thanks.
Non-PPR is all about TDs which means it’s all about touches. I always go with the RB if I have the chance. I start Torain.
Wanted to get your thoughts on picking up Kerry Collins against the Texans? I will have Britt in my line up as well.
My regular qbs Rodgers will be out and Cutler has a game outside at night in Minnesota. Uncertain if there is a right call on this one.
Thanks
LT, Woodhead or Randy Moss, 1 pt PPR, need one to move onto the FINALS!
In another league should I roll with Keller or Sacife at TE, for some reason I am feeling Scaife, and then M.Bush or Edwards for FLEX
And finally M.Bush or S.Greene in my other league
Woodhead, he’s a sneaky play. Tough to go against your gut feeling and you should always be true to yourself first. I roll with Keller though. Edwards is the better play but you don’t want to start both Keller and Edwards if you don’t have to. Why don’t you follow your gut and go with Scaife and Edwards.
PPR, pick one for my WR3
Earl Bennet
Johnny Knox
Davone Bess
12 Team PPR League
Which QB should I start?
Cutler (MIN)
Big Ben (NYJ)
Which RB Should I start?
Mendenhall (NYJ)
Forte (MIN)
Which two WRs should I start?
Branch (GB)
Gaffney (OAK)
Manningham (PHI)
Going to be cold in both places. I’d start Cutler against that suspect MIN D. NYJs are falling quickly too and Big Ben could find success … but I’d stick with Cutler.
Forte. I like the PPR aspect of his game and Mendy is slowing down.
I’d roll with BRanch and Gaffney
Non-PPR:
1-O. Daniels or Pettigrew at TE?
2-Chicago DST or Jets DST (only D yardage and points scored against count)?
1. Pettigrew
2. I HAVE to play that CHI D against the 3 string MIN QB in an ice game.
PPR, bonus for 100yrds, pick two > Britt, Wallace, Williams (TBB)
Non PPR standard scoring, pick two > Torain, Bradshaw, Blount
Thanks for the help!
Wallace and Williams. Would like to play Britt over Wallace but even with the weather, I hope Wallace can haul in one deep one.
Changing my play here … start Britt over Wallace. Just can’t go against that horrid HOU secondary.
Torain and Bradshaw
Hello again. Need help defending my championship in a Dynasty league, standard, non-ppr league.
Start two qb’s: Vick, flacco, roethlisberger. Vick and Flacco are in right now.
Starting Moreno and Peterson (nervously) Only other choices are Lynch and Benson.
My real issue is at WR. Start 3 from this group: Roddy White (given), Boldin, Holmes, Maclin and Britt.
Thank you.
PPR, Dynasty, 12 Team
Pick 2 WR: Ochocinco, SEA Mike Williams, Roy E. Williams, Blair White, Brandon Tate
Pick 1 TE: Bo Scaife, Celek, Jimmy Graham
Pick 1 Flex: Any unused players from above, Green-Ellis, Brandon Jacobs, James Starks.
Thanks again!
Ocho and Mike Williams
Celek. I have a feeling this week.
BGE as your flex.
.5 PPR
Steven Jackson or ray rice?
Owen Daniels or mike Williams (tb)?
Thanks!
Must start three of the following in point per reception:
L Blount
Nicks
Jennings
Harvin
Thanks, I love this site
Standard scoring format – non PPR
At QB Schaub or Flacco
At RB Torrain or Felix Jones
At WR Ocho or Knox
At TE Miller (OAK) or Boss
On Def Pitt or Miami
Grossman’s start has me worried about Torrain, but will Felix get enough carries?
Is Miller healthy enough to rely on?
And Troy P’s injury makes me think about using Miami.
Am I over-thinking all this?
Thanks in advance.
You have to go with Schaub for sure. Torain is a must. Felix is in a time share plus Barber might be back this week. Ocho over Knox. Miller is an elite TE. Funny i have the same Def you have and I’m going to keep Pit in.
QB: Schaub
RB: Torain
WR: Ocho
TE: Miller
D: PIT
Yes, you’re over thinking all of it … but it’s good to question things to a point. I make all of those plays and don’t lose any sleep.
1/2 PPR Mike Wallace or Mike Williams (TB)
Williams vs. DET? Yes please! Wallace would be a good play if it wasn’t against NYJ and 15 degree weather.
Non PPr, need to pick 2 of 3,
MJD
Charles
McCoy
also which D, Patriots or Bears
I’d sit Charles of that grouping.
Bears D all day. 3rd string QB and bad weather make them a must.
I need a flex play. Ryan Torain or Kenny Britt. This is a .25 ppr league to WRs only.
TIA
PPR League
Need to start 2 RBs:
J.Charles, K.Moreno, and Ray Rice are my options.
Seems to be the question of the week throughout fantasy cyberspace – do I dare think of benching Adrian Peterson in a must-win game? I have Jonathan Stewart as an alternative (and probably the safer pick), but, still, bench AP?
6 pts for TDs, 1 pt for every 20 yds rushing, 1 pt for every 20 yds receiving, NO PPR.
Sam eproblem I have but with hightower Out doors cold weather and QB issues 8 or 8 in the box to stop AP you do the math I’m rolling with Hightower LOL
Do not bench A.P. Winners make it happen….. Losers let it happen…… Think with your dipstick Jimmy…
I could never bench AP, even given the circumstances. I want to make sure I can sleep at night first. Stewart isn’t a sure thing enough to play over AP. Goodson is still the 3rd down back and has been running better on 1st and 2nd down as well. Stick with AP
Should I pick Kerry Collins up and start him over Eli Manning this week?
I don’t think that’s a horrible play. Both are colder games but Collins is up against that bad Houston D. Gmen are a running team now. Roll with Collins.
Who do I start? ppr- Pick one receiver between these four.
Miles Austin
Jeremy Maclin
Brandon Marshall
Santonio Holmes
Thanks in advance
St. Louis D against Croyle or Dallas D against Grossman?
Also:
Law Firm, Goodson, Choice…pick 1?
Yeah but did you see Croyle play? Pretty terrible. I suppose its a good problem to have, but my WR corps is decimated going into this week. A first round bye didn’t save me any grief.
I picked up Joe Webb. Start him in a yahoo league as a flex WR or go with Stefen Logan (KR seeing time at RB for Detroit)? Flex spot is a WR/RB position and league awards return yards.
Also in league 2… Owen Daniels at TE or Mike Williams (TB) at a flex spot? League is no ppr, no yardage. Need something big cause Vernon Davis whiffed on Thursday.
I need to play two of these:
Javid Best
Mike Goodson
James Starks
Reggie Bush
Michael Bush
Cadillac Williams
12 team PPR
What do you think?
They all suck flip a coin a 2 headed coin….. I Do like BUSH a lot of BUSH………… CAN’T GO WRONG WITH THE BUSH!!!!!!
Being PPR I’d go with Reggie and Goodson without much further thought. Best could be a sneaky play, but hasn’t been.
PPR scoring…
Jonathan Stewart v ARI or LeSean McCoy @ NYG
McCoy has been great so far, but a tough matchup on the road… Stewart has been coming on lately and has a great matchup at home…
thanks in advance
I’d stick with McCoy in PPR scoring. Stewart really hasn’t been as good as he’s looked. A lot of those yards came on one or two carries where he wasn’t even touched. Goodson is running with more speed, dynamic and heart … and is good in PPR. I’m just not sure they’ll continue to feature Stewart.
I have a dynasty question… I have Mcnabb in my league and could drop him for Kolb or Tebow… What is the better play in terms of upside? Does Mcnabb or Kolb have a shot at the Minnesota or Arizona job?
Any suggestion are welcome
McNabb will land somewhere and I would bet in Arizona if i had to guess. If this is a dynasty league, I wouldn’t drop him just yet, especially for Kolb or Tebow unless you’re really deep. Tebow is starting today though.
PPR league question.
Start two wide receivers: I have Brandon Marshall, Kenny Britt, Pierre Garcon and Johnny Knox. Who do I start?
I start Peytong Manning, most likely garcon, so should I start Tamme or Zach miller (oakland) at TE?
Who would you start as a flex spot, Ryan Torain, Ronnie Brown, Blount or one of the guys not used up top?
Thanks.
Britt and Garcon. Marshall looks pedestrian and uninspired.
Miller is still banged up. Hate starting too many from a single team, but if I’m going to do it, it would be in IND. Start Tamme.
Who to start? 1 pt for 10 yds 6 pt for TD
Santonio Holmes vs Pit
Anquan Boldin vs NO
Mike Williams South vs Det
QB – with Rodgers inactive, do I start Garrard vs Colts or Collins vs Texans
Flex – Jennings or Jonathan Stewart
Thanks a ton!
I don’t think TEN has 3 great wide-outs. But, they have a great matchup and good enough WRs with CJ in the backfield … go with Collins.
Stewart in the flex.
Obviously an important match-up. Playing the team from week who ended the season 13-0. Need to win to make the finals.
Heard that Was is rolling with Grossman and the Dallas D sounds incredible appetizing right now. But i’ve had Pitt all year and they’ve done me well. Especially with the struggling Jets tomorrow they also have a decent match-up.
Dal or Pitt????
Need advice. Thanks
Yikes, no pressure. In times like these I go with guaranteed touches and don’t get too cute by over thinking things.
Stick with PIT, I am. Cold game, great D and vs a bad Offense in the Jets.
Hi guys,
non-ppr league, semi-finals of a 10 man league, 1 pt every 20 rushing/receiving.
Pick 2:
Moreno
Run-DMC
Hillis
BJGE
I’m thinking Run-DMC and Hillis. Tebow starting for Denver scares me, but BJGE against GB is intriguing.
Pick 3 WR:
Megatron
M Williams (TB)
Branch
Lance Moore
Mike Thomas
Roy Williams
I’m thinking Mega/Williams and Branch.
I have to go with got me there, DMC and Hillis. Non ppr makes it an easier decision.
Yep, you nailed the WRs.
Mike Williams (Sea) or Jacoby Ford…non ppr bonus points for 40 plus yard td’s
Greg Jennings or Kenny Britt…. No Rodgers worries me, I am leaning towards Kenny.
You’re leaning in the right direction. Britt vs. a bad HOU secondary.
Standard scoring league, Non-PPR
Who should I start between these three RB’s
Bradshaw, Rice, Blount
And I have Joe Webb as a WR right now I have Megatron and Nicks in, but debating whether to bench Jennings for Webb. Thought are appreciated.
Thanks.
Bradshaw and Rice. If you’re league allows you to start Webb as a WR this week, go for it.
Bradshaw and Rice.
Webb as a 3rd WR is a nice play if you’re league will allow it. This is the week to do it in what is going to be a COLD game.
Who to start at QB? Semi Finals, 10 team league. .1 point per yd/standard scoring.
Cutler @ Vikings or Freeman vs Lions?
Freeman has been better than Cutler, is ranked higher and has a more manageable game. Gotta go with Freeman.
non-ppr, standard scoring, redraft league.
Start 3 wide receivers: I have Nicks, Boldin, Britt, Tampa Mike Williams, Jacoby Ford. Which three would you start?
Start 2 RB: I have Bradshaw, Steven Action Jackson, Hightower, Ryan Mathews and Choice.
Thank you very much.
I’d go with Nicks, Boldin and Williams. Hard to say who scores in TEN this week and they’ll double Britt where they can.
Bradshaw and Jackson for me.
PPR question, standard scoring.
Start one at flex: Brandon Marshall, Ryan Torain or Blount?
Thank you again.
PPR, need to start one of following for flex spot:
M. Wallace
R. Mendenhall
P. Harvin
M. Sims-Walker
J. Starks
I need 2 in a PPR league:
Moreno, Torain, Forte, Fred Jackson?
Thanks guys!
12 Team PPR League
Who should I start?
Tamme (JAC)
Daniels (TEN)
Need 2 RB standard scoring:
Torain – Dallas could give up the runs
Blount – Tough runner against DET D
McCoy – Tough matchup, but may lean on the running game
Forte – Againse MIN D and weather may dictate a running game
Brandon Jackson – Not a good choice IMHO
P. Thomas – Ivory out
Thanks…
2 RBs standard scoring (another league):
Mendenhall – Tough game, but he got me here
Blount – Smash mouth
M. Bush – Not a good pick in my opinion
R. Jennings – Sleeper & Indy allows the runs, but behind MJD
3 WRs:
Welker – Lock
A. Johnson – Lock
H. Nicks – current pick but Garcon is tempting
M. Manningham
P. Garcon
I sat V. Jackson – Dohhh! 29 pts
Eli, Palmer or Collins at QB?
May be the only time I ever say this … Collins.
Not sure if I start E. Bennett. M. Williams (Sea) is on the wire. Need a quick one here…Thanks
Dynasty keeper question for you: it’s time to officially cut bait with driver…question is would you pick up matt flynn or Marion barber? I have Rodgers and choice so I have ties to both positions…
1/2 ppr, thanks
My only other cut I could make for either of those guys is Mike Goodson, but I also have JStew so as it stands now, I have carolina backfield covered in a case of injury (I think DWill is not gonna be resigned)…
I wouldn’t cut bait on Goodson, I like him quite a bit and have since he came out. He’s always been an oft-injured player which is what dropped his draft stock, but he’s a dynamic runner. I’m guessing that DWill will be franchised, but will be traded. They won’t just release him because they won’t get any compensation for him.
I wouldn’t rush out to get Flynn. He had a nice game but Rodgers is the guy and Flynn has a long way to go to get snaps. Barber is the better of the two and will likely be playing elsewhere next year.
I am gonna hold onto Goodson I think…but debating Driver vs Barber…which one would you rather have in 1/2 PPR dynasty next season?
I’d go with the youth of Barber … relatively that is. I think it’s 50/50 that Driver even comes back and it’s obvious that Jones needs to be the WR2
Week 16 lineup question – only putting it on this thread so I dont forget! .5 PPR – thanks guys!!!
1. Pick one: Owen Daniels or Vernon Davis?
2. Pick one: Steven Jackson or Peyton Hillis (my other confirmed starters are MJD and Ray Rice). Leaning towards Sjax given the matchup of Hillis, though he torched Baltimore for 180 yards and a score week 3… Just seems like defenses have figured him out.
3. Pick one (flex): Fred Jackson (vs NE), Matt Forte (vs NYJ), Tashard Choice (vs AZ) or Sidney Rice. Leaning towards Forte or Choice, and I am hoping with the short week that Felix Jones doesn’t play so I can start Choice. AZ defense run def is horrid and DAL is likely to get out to a lead and I would hope they would lean on the run. Starting any RB against the Jets scares me (Forte). I think NE is going to jump out way ahead of Buff early and they are going to abandon the run, which doesn’t bode well for Fred Jackson. Sidney Rice didnt get any looks with Webb and Donald Brown, well, he is Donald Brown…
Gotta have VD! That never gets old to me. 🙂
Tough call, but I’d go with Jackson.
Forte’ although watch the weather.
Wow, just found James Jones on waivers. Would you go James Jones over Forte (assuming Rodgers plays)?
I’d still play Forte’. I love Jones for 2011 and he was one of my top pick-ups for 2010 considering his future in GB as I believe he’ll be the #2 full time next year. But he’s still too inconsistent in his current role. Go with the guaranteed touches.
