What makes you think they are a dark horse D? Brady against Ten or Hassleback against Arizona? I think this is the week Brady goes off. NE has faced some tough defenses (along with an injured Welker), but he has done surprisingly well.
I dont know, maybe everyone is overselling on Light being out and his mental connection with Brady being so Key, and that makes me think this is just what Tennessee needs. They need Kearse (maybe out) and VDB to get into the pocket for their defense to be effective. I'd go with Carolina too, I'm thinking about picking them up for the week because I have Cinci, and I try not to play Texans opponents, for superstition. It works half the time.
I picked up Mike Bell off of the waivers this week. Should I start him in my flex over mario manningham?
Rivers at home on Monday Night vs. Denver. He has already produced big numbers against the Steelers and Ravens. Should I start Dennis Northcutt at Green Bay or Eddie Royal at San Diego. I'm starting DeSean Jackson and Brandon Marshall in my other 2 WR spots And also should I start Sammy Morris vs. Tennessee, LeSean McCoy at Oakland or Willie Parker vs. Cleveland Right now I am starting Northcutt and Morris but leaning on subbing in Parker against the porous Browns rush defense.
Michael Turner (Atl) @ Chi Leon Washington (NYJ) @ Buf Thomas Jones (NYJ) @ Buf Which two? Turner hasn't been doing well but might surprise vs. Chicago and I don't know about Leon Washington... am I right in leaving both Jets in?
I have Michael Turner also, and he did excellent last week. He may not be worth the first round pick in the end, but he should always be a lock for a spot. Leon hasn't really produced since week 1, so unless you have faith that he can break outside the 20, it will be Jones getting the short yardage touches.
Definitely Steve Smith. I don't see the Saints covering both Mario and Steve the same way. New Orleans' isn't necessarily a top passing defense. Tell me why I should leave Turner in? You only have a hunch?
85% of the nation is getting that game on fox, houston will be seeing philly v oakland. Because of Kolb maybe?
That is just a hunch....I have seen Chicago's defense play this year and they aren't that great with Urlacher out. Nothing over scientific about it just think he should be in the game. Of course that's just me...
I had a choice between Brees and Ryan today. this face says it all On top of that...my opponent is undefeated. I really thought I could give him is first loss.
Sammy Morris being hurt is killing me. He could have gotten some great yardage today against Tennessee in this romp. Need Forte, Rivers and Marshall to play huge tonight and tomorrow night.
Down 65-40 with Rivers and Marshall playing tonight. Hoping for a high scoring affair with lots of TDs for both. If I can pull off the win I would be the only 5-1 team in my league.
Damn. I'm down by 19 going into tonight. I have Rivers. My opponent has Marshall and Gates. This will be my first loss of the season. I guess I made a few mistakes. I put in Boldin over Colston. Cooley over Owen Daniels. And my baltimore D got me negative points, my kicker (Bironas) got me zero. And I had Ray Rice on the bench (but my RBs are Turner, C Johnson, and Forte). Grrr
I'm down right now 133.64 to his 141.36. I still have Eddie Royal and LaDainian Tomlinson to play tonight, against his Vincent Jackson. Still in first place if I win tonight.
