    Ben - Denver's defense sucks, but Cassel sucks. Take away his game against the Colts and he hasn't been worth a roster spot.
    Rivers - I'm playing him every week still.

    I suppose I agree with this also.

    Though Eli and Rivers are much closer. Is San Fran, really that good on defense?

    I am not sure that they are, but Rivers can be a monster and the afc west games are always high scoring.

    I'll pick rivers but I do think Eli could get more points.

    Ben is a no-brainer.

    They are great against the run, but pretty low against the pass, !st in points allowed per game tho.

    Pts - 14.8 (1st)
    Pass yds - 255.1 (22nd)
    Rush yds - 70.8 (1st)

    So Eli may be a pretty good play this week.

    Battle if you want to be safe, Robinson (or Manningham) if you feel like rolling the dice.

    I'm probably starting Robinson over Battle at my flex despite of ESPN projection 3 more points from Battle (7 vs 4)

    Robinson? Do you mean Laurent Robinson?

    And apparently Preston Parker. I wish people would use first names for common last names.

    I would start Battle in a standard league, Robinson in a PPR

    Flex spot... Gotta get this figured out before tomorrow.

    Addai v Jac - But, unsure if he'll be playing or not at this point. Even if he is, he hasn't been very productive this year
    Jacoby Ford @ SD - Very good game last week.
    Laurent Robinson v Buf - With Austin out, he's going to get more looks.
    Cribbs v StL
    Sidney Rice v Bal

    I'm thinking either Ford or Robinson.

    I had high hopes for Jacoby at the beginning of the year, but that failed once he got hurt. Seems to be back to full speed now. If him and Palmer are clicking, he could go off. SD isn't giving up a whole lot of yards/game, but they're giving up a lot of TD passes, not alot of INT (8), and middle of the pack for yards/attempt.

    Buf is giving up alot of yards/game. However, they're also giving up alot of rushing TDs and yards as well, which may mean a large role for Murry. Even so, with only Dez and Witten, L.R. should get at least 5 catches like he has the past 2 games.

    Thoughts.

    Pick 3:
    Fitzgerald @ Phi
    A.J. Green v Pit
    Jennings v Min
    Jordy Nelson v Min

    Go with the best players or sub Nelson for Green/Fitz (tough matchups)? TIA.

    Im really tempted to start Cassell vs DEN at home. Broncos give up the most Fantasy points to QBs

    I would maybe sit Green for Nelson, Ike Taylor is gonna try to be all over him and Polumalu knows Dalton will be targeting Green for big plays and red zone TDs.
    _____________________

    So I'm playing Mike Tolbert and Shonn Greene for sure since I'm not clear on Ahmad Bradshaw's status. But should I play on of these guys at my flex:

    Breaston vs DEN
    Helu vs MIA
    Ford vs SD

    It's a ppr league so receivers and Helu would account for more points with their catches made. If AJ ends up playing this week I'll sub him in for Crabtree but I have him and Fitz starting at the time.

    They say he is favoring his ankle, same way he was in the game where he rushed for over 100 so I am wondering what to do. I guess I start Bush for tonight, and leave the last one open in case Gore doesn't play.

    Yeah, he's had a sore ankle in some shape or form for years. I've sat him and watched him go off, and I've played him and seen him leave in the 1st quarter. It is the nature of Frank Gore.

    I am resting the urge to let D.Moore loose. My gut tells me he is going to be a fantasy dude this week, and curiosity we know killed the cat.

    Like Martin Staszko, I've got to turn my back on him.
