mr_bungalow 1 Posted September 18, 2011 Is anyone else worth the start if he's out? I don't have Manningham but both Hixon and Stokely are out on the wire.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elaw77 0 Posted September 19, 2011 Picked up Hixon, but will probably roll with Nicks. I need him to get 30+ pts...while Caddy gets shut down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
southcarolina 166 Posted September 19, 2011 If he is out im going Gibson. Same here. Although its a moot point for me, as i am down 60 with only Nicks/Gibson left. So maybe Nicks goes 12 receptions for 250 yds and 4 TDs. LOL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kent 228 Posted September 19, 2011 I had a huge week and gambled with Nicks. Since I've already secured the win, I hope they rest him because he'll like get injured tonight since he's a frail. Nothing like playing the league low score this week. Guy I played just laid an egg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edjr 5,564 Posted September 19, 2011 I hope they rest him too. I already won that game.. I'll happily play Hixon, Dizon, whatever his name is tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted September 19, 2011 HAHA. Sorry. I'm already in the locker room with a win. Need Nicks for NEXT week. Not tonight. Coughlin, rest that stud! Same here. I've already got the win, and I have Bradshaw left, plus Gibson waiting in the wings to sub in for Nicks. Rest the guy, please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, they really need to be cautious with their stud. I bet they sit him. Bone bruises are serious business. Its not our fault we drafted amazing teams and don't really need Nicks.

justforbeer 39 Posted September 19, 2011 I won this week too, but benched Maclin for him so I would like to get some points out of him as my league considers point more than wins. Damn....freeking Maclin...who would have thought? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfalcon 824 Posted September 19, 2011 Yeah, they really need to be cautious with their stud. I bet they sit him. Bone bruises are serious business. Its not our fault we drafted amazing teams and don't really need Nicks. It's always annoying when teams like the Giants are selfish with their studs. Yeah, playing Nicks tonight might be in their best interest, but it's likely in thousands of FF teams best interest to sit him tonight so he is healthy next week when I need him. "Thousands of teams" trumps "one team" if the Giants aren't selfish bastards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RicemanX 20 Posted September 19, 2011 I need an average game from nicks to win this week. just 7.5 points. thats it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricanrockers 39 Posted September 19, 2011 Hakeem Nicks, WR NYG News: NFL Network reports Giants coach Tom Coughlin said he "feels good" about WR Hakeem Nicks (knee) being able to play Monday against the Rams. Analysis: Kickoff is nearing and the reports have thus far been good about Nicks. But the doctors are ultimately going to make the final call. If Nicks can't go, then hopefully you added Domenik Hixon off waivers as a replacement option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kent 228 Posted September 20, 2011 They had Manningham in on the 1 receiver sets on the first drive. Good. Don't tax Nicks. Wow, Eli is just brutal this year. A pick already. EDIT: Wow, Eli just under threw a guy by 10 yards on a sideline screen. Everything he's doing is slow. Did he get concussed last week? TD NICKS!!!! Horrible pass.

cavern 70 Posted September 20, 2011 i tell you what, and perhaps it's bad form to rail on a guy with a concussion, but the giants clearly tried to feature manningham in the first half and manningham played like absolute dung Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NorthernVike 2,080 Posted September 22, 2011 Shiz I need both. Hey Dex, They revised the stat line from last weeks game and gave Nicks the catch. Elias and the NFL have made the following official stat changes for NFL Week 2: Rams at Giants: A 4th down play originally reported as a first down by penalty has been changed to a 23 yard reception by Hakeem Nicks from Eli Manning. •4 receptions for 38 yds by Nicks. •19 of 30 for 223 yds passing by Manning.
