    I know it can be scary playing CJ1K but his game in Houston should be a boost of confidence for him going forward even if it was in garbage time. I personally hate Michael Turner and think his last week performance was completely due to the complete inability of the Carolina rush defense. So go with CJ1K because I think Turner is on the decline.

    im playing manningham over hawkins and tate. I just have a gut feeling he is going to score.

    he playing the bills who give up the forth most fantasy passing tds in the league and the bills, since they throw a lot, I see more plays for manningham to catch passes.

    I would play Forte, but I think both get around the same points.

    Such a tough decision here because both these guys are playing against similarly ranked Rush defenses and in kind of odd situations because of injuries and backups who are goal line vultures. I'm leaning towards Mathews though just because of his overall talent to run the ball, I personally believe they sent a message to him last week by giving battle a few more carries but Mathews is 20x more talented and will prove himself as the one and only back in San Diego.

    Excellent points. My biggest fear with Mathews is that the Chargers will fall behind in a shootout and abandon the run. The chances of that happening with Forte in Jax are virtually nill. But how healthy is Forte? Argh!

    W/T flex
    Reggie Wayne vs. GB
    or
    Rob Gronkowski @ DEN

    I'm leaning Wayne this week due to a likely shootout against the Pack. Thoughts? Other starters at WR and TE are Nelson, Bowe, and Jimmy Graham. Luck is the QB.

    I benched Crabtree at home vs the horrible Buffalo defense in favor of Hartline on the road vs the mediocre Cincy defense.

    That was so disappointing from him today. I started him over Peyton Manning thinking he had the easier matchup (and was worried about NE pulling an Atlanta on Peyton and taking away the easy short throws). Was so wrong.

    Thankfully it didn't matter in the grand scheme of things, but from now on Flacco is benched by default unless I have no choice.

    Peyton scored 50+ again for me this week. Also picked up David Wilson to start for DMC on the bye. He brought be over 12pts. Overall happy with my team. I had several out on BYE. I am now 3-2
