    Carolina was rolling double coverage his way all game. This left Barden, Bennett with lots of open space and single coverage and Brown with lots of running lanes. Carolina didn't respect Giants other options. Eli is good enough to make others look great.

    Rivera even said at halftime their gameplan was to roll coverage onto Cruz. Eli respected that and he and Barden feasted on that rookie CB all night.

    Don't expect teams to make that mistake again.

    If Nicks is ready to go next week than that makes their passing game more dangerous. I really think Bennett is going to have a breakout year. He should be open a lot.

    Yeah, I was high on Bennett this season, but I thought guys like Jared Cook and Kyle Rudolph would have better years.

    He's on his way to the Pro Bowl if he keeps this pace up.

    What do you guys think about the Bears against StL. Or Bills against Cleveland? Right now I have the Bills starting. What worries me though is that the Browns were able to put up points last week and nearly made my starting Bengals pointless.

    Brandon Lloyd now listed as questionable.

    Rotoworld is saying if Collie is cleared Saturday he will start over Avery.

    If Lloyd was out for sure I would play Edelman. Now I'm thinking maybe go Blackmon and hope he shows something.

    They said earlier today that Lloyd will definitely start but because he was limited in practice that they had to list him as questionable. Collie may get the start IF he is cleared but Avery will most of the plays. Collie will probable play 15-20 snaps.

    so got a some questions:

    QB: Schaub at Denver or Dalton at Washington?

    RB: Im thinking benching A. Peterson against the 49ers, the 49ers hasnt allowed a rushing TD in a long time, and Idk if AP is 100% recovered.
    for options, I have Pierre Thomas, Peyton Hillis or Kendall Hunter.

    I really think you must start Peterson. He will get a ton of touches and I think he will do fine. I have heard a lot about him this week from people in the know and say he is the healthiest he has been in a long while. The only player you have that I would come close to starting over Peterson is Thomas but even he will share a lot of his touches with Ingram, who has looked better and better each week. Go with Peterson, he will score the most points out of anyone of your RBs

    Is your league standard scoring? If so go with Dalton, if you get 6 pt Throwing TDs go with Schaub.

    Haha! What's the worst that could happen? Lloyd has a 2 TD game?

    I don't have Lloyd, I was only considering Edelman if Lloyd was to be out, but apparently he's going to play.

    Apparently Hankerson is going to take over the #1 WR role with Garcon out. We'll see about that.

    Shot in the dark.

    He did everything in his power to try to drop an easy touchdown bomb last week. I think the catch was basically saved by the anaconda in his pants being used as his 3rd hand. Hank time is a dud on the field.

    I have Brandon Marshall, Dwayne Bowe, Reggie Wayne, and Miles Austin to fill three WR slots. Marshall is an obvious start. I'm thinking same with Bowe. So which do yall think between Wayne and Austin?

    Yeah, that's what I said last week with Roy Helu.

    The one thing I know about fantasy football is that the more the media talks a player up the ****ty his play is once sunday rolls around.

    For all you know Fred Davis will get 10 catches for 120 yards and a couple of scores.

    If Hankerson's the best you got play him I suppose, but expect 2 for 21 day rather than a big fantasy week.
