Not having Welker and Peterson just killed me, lost by 10 points oh well can't overcome everything. I had Toddman filling in for Peterson but just wasn't enough to get me over the let down of Rivers game Thursday night.

You'll have an blast following the CAR/NO and CHI/PHI games. That is what fantasy football is all about.

 

I try to get my girlfriend to understand. "We want the Bears to score by throwing the ball, but it has to be to #17, not #15. We don't care if the Bears win or lose, though."

 

or "We want the Saints to score with their running back, so then the Panthers need to throw the ball more

 

Haha this gave me a great laugh, because I can just imagine a woman sitting there not understanding it.

 

I was so excited to get into the playoffs and my girlfriend thinks I'm a weirdo for wanting to win something that i get nothing for. UM EXCUSE ME, That little gold digital trophy means EVERYTHING. Haha just messing but I won my league last year so I'd like to win again.

 

Honestly think I am overmatched with my team going against,

 

Cam Newton vs Brees (I think Cam wins)

 

Murray vs J.Charles (Charles gets 30+ points this week :mellow: )

 

Gio Bernard vs Le'von Bell (Unsure wether to start Bernard or Jennings)

 

Alshon vs Brandon Marsh (Alshon goes off, saving me from a Charles domination)

 

AJ Green vs Andre Johnson (AJ has two touchdowns but less than 80 yards, Johnson has 1 touchdown but 140+ yards)

 

Vernon D vs Jason Witten (These two seems to be on same level, very close points most likely)

 

DeSean vs Michael Floyd (DeSean, Keenan Allen, or D. Thomas?)

 

Steven Hauschka vs Justin Tucker (Please New England dont allow 6 field goals)

 

Chiefs D vs Seahawks D (Carson Palmer is going to be eaten alive by Seattle. Hopefully Andrew Luck will be sacked 5-7 times,  throw two interceptions)

 

 

It seems like honeslty this game will come down to the wire just like my last game, I had Bernard and Green left and them none, down by 4, i won by 16.

I'm leaning that way. It's a tough call though. I've ridden Romo most of the year, and have had good success (obviously, in championship). But, this whole week of Dallas getting blasted for not running the ball, has me real worried they are gonna almost exclusively pound it against the Skins. IDK


Thanks.

 

Expect a 3 touchdown day from Brady and a 2 by Romo.

 

Honestly after losing to the Phins' last week Brady is pissed and you better believe when sunday comes that Pats offense will be ready. Hell brady may even go off and them score 50+ again.

 

I just dont see Romo having a big day against the Skins'

Let me know if you like my line-up. I'm playing for 5th place...


 

STARTERS:


 

QB Peyton Manning @ Texans
(obvious)

RB1 Frank Gore vs Falcons)
(solid RB1)

RB2 Rashad Jennings @ Chargers
(good RB2)

WR1 Keean Allen vs Raiders
(great choice)

WR2 Eric Decker @ Texans
(the Broncos reciever who will see most points)

WR3 Kendall Wright @ Jaguars 
(I'd think about starting Patterson. I think Wright is gonna have trouble with Gratz)

RB/WR Jordan Todman vs Titans
(unsure about this. Green-Ellis may be a better start)

 

K: Adam Vinatieri @ Chiefs


DEF: Carolina Panthers vs Saints


 

BENCH:


 

RB Bobby Rainey @ Rams


RB BenJarvis Green-Ellis vs Vikings


WR Cordorelle Patterson @ Bengals


WR Michael Crabtree vs Falcons


WR Nate Burleson vs Giants


WR Doug Baldwin vs Cards


 

 

Do you think I should start Jennings over Gio Bernard?

---

Quick question, does anyone think Alex Smith will do better then Cam Newton? Or maybe even Tannehill? I'm looking through FA to see if any good starters for the week.

---

Jennings has been racking up points for me, but I couldn't just bench GIo. Always start Gio.


 

As for a QB, is Cutler available?


 

 

My big question is Crabtree... should I bench one of me WRs for Crabs?

Tannehill has been hot for me. I waiver-shop for my QBs too. There is no point of drafting QBs high when you can take advantage of waiver-wire matchups.

Jags02, how did your team end up with so many non-starters? I'm assuming Manning was your 1st round pick, but who were your picks in rounds 2, 3, 4? You should be able to get some good talent in those rounds.

---

WR- Brandon Marshall, Andre Johnson, Josh Gordon 

RB- LeSean McCoy, DeAngelo Williams 

TE Jimmy Graham

W/R- Roddy White

W/R/T- as of now T.Y. Hilton, but I picked up Jordan Todman and will play him if MJD is out. I've actually played Jordan Cameron at this spot for most of the year, sometimes Rashard Mendenhall, sometimes Greg Jennings. Cameron has already been ruled out, so I dropped him and picked up Kirk Cousins. My choices at QB are Brady (the only QB I drafted) @ Baltimore, Roethlisberger @ Green Bay or Cousins vs Dallas. I have Chiefs defense and Phil Dawson as my kicker.

---

I had Charles on one of my teams, played Charles on another, and didn't have to deal with him in my other three leagues.

 

You had that Jamal Charles train running against me.  Still won!  Boo ya!

 

Thanks Justin Tucker on tieing it up for me!

---

I'm thinking Crabtree could be in for a huge day, and I'm wondering if I should flex him instead of Jordan Todman. Patterson is another option, but Vikings WRs scare me kind of like Chiefs WRs do...that is, they'll have a big week and then disappear the next.

Peyton Manning and Vernon Davis are my only remaining original draft picks. Frank Gore, Eric Decker and Kendall Wright were traded for, but in the process I ended up trading away Gio Bernard and Anquan Boldin. Doug Martin and Shane Vareen are other vets that I drafted and since cut loose due to injury.

I am also in the Championship but am worried on what my best line up will be...

 

Right now starting I have,

 

QB- Cam N.

RB- DeMarco Murray, Gio Bernard

WR- Alshon Jeffery, A.J. Green, DeSean Jackson

TE- Vernon Davis

K-Steven Hauschka

DEF- Chiefs

 

My back-ups are

 

QB- Andrew L.

RB- Shane Vereen, Chris Johnson, Rashad Jennings

WR- Demariyus Thomas, Keenan Allen

 

I'm not sure if Andrew Luck will have a big game again or go back to stinking. Also, do you guys think CJ2K will run all over the Jags? Rashad Jennings has been on fire lately too, not sure what to do. Keenan Allen could be a good start too. But i need sure-fire starters

 

I hope you took my advice and got Demaryius Thomas into your starting lineup. 112 yards and 1 TD at halftime.

---

PHEW. Last minute I switched Colin Kaepernick in and Ryan Tannehill out because of the weather in the Miami game.

 

His team is done. I have Kaepernick going into tomorrow nights game down by 11. This is exciting.

---

I hope you took my advice and got Demaryius Thomas into your starting lineup. 112 yards and 1 TD at halftime.

I wish I had taken your advice, for some reason.I felt like DeSean was gonna have a big game and I was wrong. I assumed the Broncos were gonna struggle along with Thomas. I couldnt bench Jeffery as he's been to good lately.


You made a very good descision, with your Quarterback switch, I should have replaced Newton as well, I knew the weather would be a huge factor.


After a few letdowns its safe to say I am still able to win with 78.06-86.50. They have no player's remaning and I have Vernon Davis to rely on. Your damn right its exiting! I'm on pins and needles over here.

---

I lost. Couldn't beat this 14-0 dude. He ran the table, I finished 2nd.

---

I'll drink a beer for with ya in spirit when Kaep slings a TD to Davis tonightz

---

I pray that happens, honestly just a touchdown and 30 yards would get me the win.


I know you've won for sure a lock. Congrats! Beers on you, haha.


I think I will fall short though, I just hope Davis can vault me to my 2nd Consecutive Championship win.

---

Yup, as long as CK doesn't start tossing INTs, I've won. I'm currently up by 3.

 

Still hoping for a Davis TD for you, man.
