I am with you on PT. If Bush plays (or talk running up to the game is dismissive of his knee), then I'd go with Finley. I think he is going to keep scoring (but Sea does not give up a lot of points to TEs). Generally, however, RBs get more opps than TEs. If your league still has a gap between scoring TDs and points for yardage, go with Finley as I honestly think he has a better chance of scoring than PT (b/c even with Bush out, they have been putting Bell in at goal line - it has been weeks since PT got a goal line carry). If, however, you can get some points out of yardage, PT will probably get at least 100 total yards (esp. if Bush is out - could be more) whereas Finley will likely get from 40-80 yards rec. 40-60 yards will result in enough pt differential, then go with a Bush-less PT and count a TD as a major bonus. Thanks for mine

for WR3 --> MSW @ NE (has been struggling in Pass D) for RB2 --> Maroney vs JAX (getting the ball, seeing goal line touches) for Flex --> If Bush gets the start, I'd go with him (keep an eye on Fargas injury - if he's healthy, back away slowly) Otherwise Moats is averaging 12 touches/game (11 car, 2 rec), and Foster fumbled his way out of the lineup. Ganther doesn't do it for me, but he is scoring TDs since he is basically the only RB in Wash left with a pulse (avg 15 car, 3 rec/game). He'll probably get a TD. Ward scares me b/c TB just isn't that good and NO will be P-O'd and ready to play hard at home after what happened last week. Ganther is safe, Bush if u r feeling risky. Thanks for mine

6 pts TD rush/rec, 1 pt every 33 yards. Start 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, !K, !DST I will be starting MJD for sure, but I need to start another. I must pick one of the following: Ryan Grant v. Seattle Fred Jackson @Atl James Harrison v Oakland Pierre Thomas v. TB Jonathon Stewart @ NYG My head says Grant, but the 'little man in my gut' says Harrison ("You can't win big if you don't bet big" - but I'm kind of chicken...) I have picked the wrong guy the last two weeks, but my other players have been stepping up (Week 15 bench was Grant, Harrison, and Stewart). Whaddya say? Leave a link and I will help yours

Roy could be a sneaky pick against Wash (if last week's debacle against NYG is a predictor) Dwayne Bowe - tuff matchup against tuff Cincy D Chris Chambers - ditto Roddy White - Buffalo tuff to pass on, but at home and Ryan back at helm Steve Smith (NY) - gets more looks than almost anyone, but TDs seem scarce Mike Sims-Walker (Assuming I get him) - NE pass D suspect, Garrard seeming to come on strong I guess I'd go with White, Smith and MSW to be safe. Thanks for mine!

Rbs: Sjax @Ari - he has been a solid, consistent machine even when dinged and he plays hard. He will get the ball early and often. Charles @ Cin - this guy is en fuego - consider him a Stud, even if he is up against a solid D like Cincy. Wrs: AJ @ Mia - obvious. Holmes - Bal - tough matchup but he is trusted by Big Ben and they NEED this bigtime (and playing home) Mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=360012

RBs MJD v NE (FJax and Buf ran over NE well) Snelling v Buffalo (he will get more balls and plays at home) WRs Wayne v NYJ Rice v Chicago Meachem v TB [Wallace could have a good day, but you don't know with Pit and he is 'new' on the scene and likely inconsistent] If you can get Harrison, I'd start him with MJD (I might do the same --> see mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...owtopic=360012)

Can't believe I am saying this, but I'd sit Wayne. Desean is a MUST start each week, V-Jax is coming on. The toss-up is Rice or Wayne. Revis is a human blanket this year and I just don't know how hard Indy is going to try. The safe bet is to sit Rice and go with Wayne (no one could argue with that), but check on the reports this week on the state of mind in Indy... I'd stay with Benson - there should be more than enough joy to go around against KC. Straight up, I'd take Ricky over Ray as Ricky is really the ONLY option in Miami whereas LM and WM take stuff away from Rice. Also, Pitt can be scored on, but only about 1 RB TD per game, and there is a 50% chance it will be Ray. In Miami you are almost guaranteed that Ricky will get at least 2-5 cracks to run it in in the red zone. Benson and Ricky. Mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=360012

F-Jax and Wells. They get the dosage needed. Ganther gets more than Jax, but the 'skins are awful and the matchup is tough Mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=360012

Jennings is safer and Smith has looked Morgan's way a lot lately.

I like Garcon. Manning trusts him, and almost as much as Wayne in the Red zone. They will all play for at least 3 qtrs and could do a lot of damage in that time. IF Turner is 100% healthy and IF he is clearly going to get plenty of touches, then sure, go with him instead, but I think you are safer with Garcon

I like The Wells/Detroit matchup better, but I'd go with Ricky - he's the only real option at RB in Miami, has been doing well, and Tenessee is only slightly better at run D and RB TDs than Detroit. Wells is getting fed more than Hightower, but he is only a lost fumble away from a complete RBBC situation again. I like Bush over Ganther. Ganther only got 50 yds against a bad Raiders D and NYG run Def is much better. Sure he is the only RB in Wash, but Bush has been more involved in the offense and is getting looks in the red zone. I'd keep an eye on the injury reports out of New Orleans and if there is anythign sketchy about Bush's knee, then go Ganther, but if he looks good to go, stick with him. Thanks for mine

10 teams, 1qb, 2rb, 2wr, 1te, 1te, 1dst. 6 pts TD, 4 pts TD pass, 1 pt for every 33 yards. Starting qb Schaub (hou) rb MJD rb ???? wr Johnson (hou) wr Rice te Finley k Longwell dst Ravens Bench RBs: Ryan Grant, Fred Jackson, Justin Forsett, Pierre Thomas, Chris Jennings, Arian Foster Was going to go with Grant, but wondering if Jennings (Cle) could blow up against bad KC or Foster (Hou) get the load with Houston against the awful Rams? Would anyone take the risk with Jennings or Foster over any of my other options? Plus, Houston DST v. Rams looks good, too. Might they outperform Ravens DST v. Chicago? Thanks and will help yours if you leave a link

Stay with Bush at flex - can't be too sure about Foster (who can believe Kubiak anymore?) and Ganther has tough matchup (even tho he is the only RB in Was) I'd stay with Addai and Charles. JC is going to have a BIG day and Addai should play at least 3 qtrs against a bad Jax.

I'm with them - Marshall and Boldin. Marshall is hot, Boldin will get more looks with Fitz gimpy. Wayne could still have a big day in only 2 qtrs, but the other guys are safer.

Moats. Bufs have tough matchup against New England adn F-Jax is getting most of the work. Moats may have to share with Foster, but if Foster is just so-so, Moats should see plenty of work against a bad Rams D.

Even if S-Jax is healthy, I'd start Charles ahead of him. With Null at QB defense only has to worry about run. With loss of Incognito the Rams line in even worse shape. Plus, Sjax has bad back. No question. Charles is the featured back in an offense that will be involved in a high scoring game. I wish I could start Gore & Charles. I'll trade ya? ;-)

It comes down to the RB as the TE pts always feel like bonus points. I like McCoy more than Ganther b/c Philly is better and even tho Weaver leeches off some carries, McCoy is still involved more. Ganther had a decent game against a BAD Raiders run D; the Giants are much better against the run. Given the above, then I'd grab Davis - he looks like a better option than Miller over the next two games, for sure. Plus, Campbell has discovered that when the WRs are covered, the TE might be open. Ben is still trying to figure out how to complete a 3-step drop before he gets nailed by the rush.

Gore, Gore, and Gore. S-Jax is ailing and his team has nothing left. 49ers still have a chance, Gore is healthy and running hard, and SIngetary may have finally figured out that when Gore rushes at least 18 times they win.

Britt for Wayne ONLY if Vince Young is healthy and plays. Otherwise, stick with Wayne. He's bound to get some love before Peyton takes a seat. I like F-Jax at Flex - NE good, but have holes and Freddy is getting a lot of touches these days Unless you don't feel right about starting two Bills against NE, I like Fitzpatrick this week. NE's d-backs have been getting abused. This could also open things up for F-Jax out of backfield. You could get a two-fer with those guys.

I like Desean and Nicks. Both are coming on and both have QBs that have taken an interest in them. If AZs plays D like they did against the Minny Queens two weeks ago, Cal will be lucky see catch one ball. If they play like they did against SF on Monday, Cal could get 1 TD and 50 yards. it is 50/50 on the AZ defense. Are those odds could enough to stake Cal's upside against either Desean or Nicks? I'd sit him. Meachem plays in an orgy of points, but he shares them with too many people for me - and Dallas isn't that bad defensively (ain't great, either). Collie is an afterthought, but if he and Sorgi share a of time in practice, then maybe they hook up often in the 2nd half. Risky bet, though. MSW has Garrard throwing to him (he alternates between Ryan Leaf and Phil Rivers days) and Indy's pass D is decent.

Ganther is safe bet (he's the only RB left in Wash) Forsett better ONLY if you hear reliable info that he will get more touches than Julius (at home against Tampa Bay Sucs) Turner's healthy? Unless he is, I'd stay away. Put a gun to my head? I'd say Ganther. You WR problem is about risk tolerance: Wayne safe, but may only play half a game - that said, he still could have 4/40 and a TD White is going to be covered like a blanket by one of the only true shutdown corners left - Revis. I'd stay away. I like Hicks. Manningham has run too many bad routes, costing TDs, and Eli is PISSED at him. He loves Nick's playmaking ability and looks too him for that reason. Boos and Smith are the only ones he has to worry about right now Bowe is risky since he's been out for 4 weeks, but if he comes in without rust, there are going to be a lot of points scored in that game. Cribbs is a roll of the dice every week, but this would be the week to roll with him (KC bites, high-scoring game, they are trying to get him the ball) If I felt like gunning for it, I'd go with Hicks and Cribbs. If I wanted to be "safe" and not be accused of being an idiot on Tuesday, I'd go Wayne and Hicks.

Jax gives up 2 ppg more to DSTs than Miami. Miami's offense if generally better than Jax (scores 4 ppg more than Jax) and gains more yardage. Jax gives up more sacks and INTs per game, and Indy has more sacks than Titans. I'd go with Indy DST v. Jax Good luck mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=359465

If you're PPR, PT gets 16 looks per game since week 10, plus 10-15 carries, but you're right about goal-line situation. Forsett, too, gets a lot of looks out of the backfield, but until Mora learns what we've all learned about Julius, Forsett just isn't a big enough part of the game. If Jennings is going to get the bulk of the touches v. Harrison, I'd go with him as that game should see a lot of points. The safe bet is RM cuz he will be on the field more and get the goal line carries - but Pit stinks these days. My ranking of these guys (safe, sensible, won't hate yourself on Tuesday morning cuz "who knew?"): RM*-PT-CJ-JF If you are feeling risky and want to strike: CJ-JF-RM*-PT Even if Westbrook plays he has been out for so long I just can't seem him getting a) a big workload, and into the flow of the game. He's gotta be rusty. *Plus, if the weather is bad in Pitt (windy, cold) this will be more of a ground war Mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=359465

I am going to join the chorus and say Clark, too. If you get close to gameday and you hear things about Colts sitting starters and you get nervous, I'd go with either Ganther (he's he only RB left standing in Washington) or Jennings (Cle/KC should be a score-fest). Good luck and thanks for mine.

10-team league 1 pt every 34 yds rush/rec 6 pts TD 4 pts TD pass I should start MJD, but don't know who to pair him with. Must pick one: Ryan Grant Pierre Thomas Fred Jackson Justin Forsett Jonathon Stewart Every year I start the guy who puts up a goose-egg while my bench rips it up. Can't take it anymore - please help Mat
