  1. I picked up Starks in two leagues, I still might take a wait and see approach. I could see McCarthy pulling a fast one and either splitting carries 50/50 or Lacy getting the majority of carries. Nothing McCarthy said gives me confidence in Starks being the clear bell cow, even when he said Starks is the number one he added we'll stick with a 1-2 punch, he also said earlier that they need to get Lacy going, which i take as meaning he'll still get a fair bit of opportunities. Starks IMO is a high upside flex (I fortunately have better options) who i think will do more with his share of snaps and Lacy being a desperation dart throw, low floor play which could pay off big, if and its a really big if, he can get rolling (maybe he's laid off the rolls the last few weeks).

     

    I remember McCarthy saying last season when we were in fantasy football playoffs(against Buff) that it would be a RBBC, and Starks rarely saw the field and it was all Lacy running on Buff, and he did quite well. If you have a starter or high volume RB, I would definitely go with them over Starks. The okie doke will be a hard pill to swallow if you start Starks and Lacy takes off.


  2. No one, hes my main man after Romo got hurt. My other option was Tannehill for Andys Bye but hes on the trash pile when I pick someone better up.

     

    Gotcha. Yeah, I'm nervous about starting him, mainly because of friggin TNF games. Plus I have AJ, who I feel good about because he can still have good numbers even if Dalton goes back to Bad Andy.

     

    If Bad Andy shows up, it will be tough the next couple days. I'm playing the Brady owner this week, and can't leave QB points on the bench.


  3. I am starting him, a tad reluctantly over Matty Ice, but I think Dalton's ceiling is too great to pass up.

     

    I know last year he threw for 86 yds and 3 INT's against Cleveland, and he typically puts up bad numbers in primetime matchups, but have to believe this year will be different with no Haden to contend with and better weapons at his disposal. Any other Dalton owners on the fence about starting him on TNF tonight?
