    Ok I need a quick answer please!! I have Eli Manning and Brett Favre as my quarterbacks... Who should I start??

    Eli is playing against his older brother, so I think he'll be pumped up for a big game.

    Favre is going against the Dolphins..

    So once again who should I start??

    I'd go with Eli. Favre does not look the same without Sidney Rice and I think Eli should have a fairly good game against the mediocre Colts D and his Bro

    Who should I start as my 3rd WR this week?

    Percy Harvin, Mike Williams (SEATTLE), or Mark Clayton?

    I got Jamaal Charles on my fantasy team too, and I'm definatley gonna be starting him. He did good last week and this week he is going up against the Browns, so look for another big game from him.

    I like Mike Williams, but I have a feeling Harvin is going to produce some this week even though it isn't the greatest of matchups. I actually hate Williams' matchup even more -- they're playing the Broncos right? Which means he's probably got a one-way ticket to Champ Bailey Island...just ask Mike Sims-Walker how lonely it is out there. I'd play Harvin.

    Jamaal Charles looks really awesome...even if he's sharing carries, he's really a beast. I'd compare him to Chris Johnson back when he was sharing touches with Lendale White. Frankly, unless your other RB spot is occupied by Peterson/MJD/Johnson/Gore, you should probably be starting both Jackson and Charles.

    If not, you should consider a trade. Those guys are too good to be riding the pine, and I'm sure you could use a top player at another position like WR.

    Have to pick one this morning...

    Hakeem Nicks (game time decision tonight @ Colts)
    Mike Sims-Walker @ SD
    Brandon Lloyd vs. Seattle

    I'd love to stick with Nicks if I knew he'd play, but with it being a night game, and my other 2 options being noon games, I don't get the luxury of waiting.

    In a 2 WR league, who should start as my second? Greg Jennings is my first WR.

    Legedu Naanee (caveat: Rivers and R.Matthews are my QB/RB)
    Pierre Garcon
    Mike Wallace
    Mark Clayton

    I'm pretty much down to Clayton or Naanee. I'm not too big on starting 3 guys from the same team, but the Bolts are playing the Jags.

    Then again there's a guy in my league starting Schaub/A.Johnson/Foster, and we all know what happened last week. He ended up losing his matchup because of Schaub/Johnson.

    I'd go with Garcon, with Naanee a close second. Don't let what the Texans did last week convince you it's a bad idea. That was a freak thing. The Texans are much more likely to be way more balanced than that going forward...as will the Chargers. That said, Garcon is going to get his touches and hopefully (sort of) he'll drop less than he did last week.

    I already got the 3 WR starters at Calvin Johnson, Greg Jennings, and Randy Moss.

    My QB is Rodgers.

    I might need to upgrade my TE spot though.

    Is it safe to start Owen Daniels this week?

    I have Brent Celek, but that QB situation in Philly is making his production drop. I've got an itchy trigger finger to drop Celek and add Daniels

    Should I?

    Dont drop celek but add OD, start any of the two since I think it will be possibly a 3 point difference.

    Two days ago it really looked like Nicks might miss this week's game. Today it looks much more encouraging. Nicks rolled his ankle in last Sunday's game and did not practice Wednesday or Thursday, casting doubt on his availability for Sunday. He returned Friday, however, and reportedly felt much better making directional moves on the ankle.

    He will still be a game-time decision and it is a Sunday night game so there is some risk for fantasy owners, but both Nicks and coach Tom Coughlin seemed far more upbeat about his chances late Friday than they had been earlier in the week. It now appears more likely that Nicks will suit up, but fantasy owners should pick up Mario Manningham or have another Sunday night or Monday option at the ready.


    Well safe bet MSW, but best WR hicks you can take a gamble on. He will not be going full speed.

    I scored 196 points so far this week (still have Saints Defense playing tonight) but I am only ahead by 8 pts. WTF? Last week I scored the 2nd most points in the league and lost.

    OD looks bad, he is definitely not healthy, he lacks the speed and cutting ability he possessed from the past. I am considering dropping him.
