S.Johnson and S.Moss both have favorable matchups this week. And Sproles is always dangerous. That's a very solid trio there.ohjtbehaaave

That's why I'm undefeated in that league. :D

Johnson and Sproles are red-hot, and I also have LeSean McCoy, Ray Rice, Gronkowski (also red-hot), and Jermichael Finley (who is benched for now :lol:). With that group, I can run with any QB I want *cough*Romo*cough*Kolb*coughcough* and still win.

DeSean is a feast or famine guy. One game 4 or 5 catches for 200 yards and 2 TDs, the next 1 or 2 catches for 20 yards.

I lol'd when someone dropped their defense. I have the Packers defense so I don't need and upgrade. If I did I'd take them.

Redskins D or Packers D? I ask because the 'Skins are playing a craptacular Rams offense while the Packers are playing the Broncos. Both offenses suck but the Packers tend to allow opponents to put up points and passing yards. They're great against the run though...

I just picked up the Skins defense, because in the GS league I have the Steelers. Packers get TOs though.

Yeah, that's why it's a tough call. As much as the Pack allows points, they tend to return TOs for TDs.

Here's a question: When Aaron Hernandez comes back to the Patriots after his injury, do you think they'd give him the top spot again? Or would they let Gronkowski keep it for awhile because he's hot right now?

... The Pats run a TON of two tight end sets. Both are playable every week. For instance in week 1-2 (when Hernandez was playing), they both were top 5 tight ends. In week 1, they ranked 2nd (Hernandez) and 3rd (GRONK) In week 2, they ranked 1st (Gronk) and 5th (Hernandez).

Okay, so it'll be safe to play Gronk over Finley all season even with Hernandez back. Got it. :D

I'm trying to decide between Eagles D and Saints D this week. Saints get the Jags rookie QB... and Eagles get banged up Niners offense which blows in the first place. Either one should do pretty well hopefully. I'm leaning towards the Eagles because they will be looking for a big bounce back effort after the Giants loss. I could see a pick 6 in this one.

I picked up Grossman for Kolb, specifically because Grossman is playing the Rams and I have Santana Moss playing, so I'm looking for double duty. I'll drop him for either Kolb or Hasslebeck later. This also means sitting Romo, whose offensive weapons mostly have injuries anyway.

Well, that certainly backfired... :( Oh well, I'm kicking ass anyway. I don't need to rely heavily on QBs in that league because the rest of my team is awesome.

I'm going to drop the Eagles for the Texans D. Eagles are all hype and a total MYTH this season! Dream team? What a joke. Forget the playoffs... Dream about just being 8-8 from what I've seen.

Big win for Texans. They could have won by 2 TD's if it weren't for awful penalties. A.Foster looked good... and Texans look for real this year.

I didn't think Arian Foster and Frank Gore would do so well :( I had them on my bench coz I wasn't sure how they would perform due to their "injuries".

Are you still thinking of picking up Hasselbeck? I'm thinking of picking him up and trading Cutler

Lol..maybe they're not really bothered in updating their team. My next opponent still has Jamal Charles starting. Though if I still manage to lose, I will retire from my position :D

ok how about this one. Steelers Defense vs the Titans or Titans Defense vs the Steelers? What sucks is that this is even a question. I used a mid round pick for what I thought was a safe Defensive team, and a defense that I claimed from the waiver wire is doing better.

oh wow lol. I just had another look at my next matchup projections and realised my next opponent actually has a pretty good team, so I'll take back my claims I'll step down if I lose :P

Anyone think I should trade/release J Cutler? He seems to have no confidence.

I'm glad I didn't cut him. I put him in for Hightower's bye.

EDIT: Also, I'm down by 30 right now, but I still have Rodgers, Nelson, Finley and Packers Defense yet to play, while my opponent has played everybody.

I totally blew my game this week starting M.Williams again of Tampa when I was leaning towards trying V.Cruz. Should of trusted my instincts. M.Williams is a total BUST!!! My whole team is basically underachieving this year. I thought P.Rivers would have a huge season... but he's doing nothing this year without Gates.

Yeah... unless Rogers gets injured, you win. I'm up by 4 with only Roddy White left, while my opponent has Tony Gonzalez, Michael Turner, and the Bears kicker.... I need a monster game from Roddy White to win. I'm talking about 120+ yards 2 TDs kind of game.

Don't by almost 50 now, so I need everybody to show up tonight.

EDIT: Thank God Lloyd forgot to show up. If he had, then not even Rodgers could help me come back from that deficit. I mean, 50 is hard enough. I just need repeat performances. But 60-70? I'd lose for sure.

Well, I lost at least one unless Rodgers throws to Nelson or Finley but it's over so I seriously doubt it. Would've won if Finley didn't go Butterfingers on me. I might win another league if the Packers D gets another INT/fumble recovery/touchdown OR Stafford and the Lions stomp on the Bears. I definitely won the GS league though...

Who do I start for McGahee in the spread? My choices: Benjamin Watson (Cle) Mike Thomas (Jac) Davone Bess (Mia) Johnny Knox (Chi) Yes, I know my bench sucks right now. It also sucks that I'm without Chris Johnson and Willie McGahee this week due to byes. Hopefully my Packers and BJGE can pick up some slack though...
