Just traded Cedric Benson. I have him for this weekend though against the Colts and then he has a bye week and then an upcoming suspension. ^5?

^Maybe Julio Jones is getting more targets. Also Matt Ryan has been a huge disappointment for me. I picked up Andy Dalton, I'm gonna see if I can trade Jay Cutler (though who would want him lol)

Should I start Buffalo Bills or Cincinatti Bengals Def?

I'd start Bengals. I'd basically start any defense that went up against Indy.

This was a good decision. They net me some good points

I'm well disappointed with Vernon Davis. He practically rolled a donut. And the day I decide to drop Matt Ryan and Jay Cutler, they decide to have a solid game.

Looking at possibly an easy win in one league. My opponent has started Nate Kaeding and Jamal Charles (both on IR) all season, and this week started five players, three of them active on bye weeks. He doesn't change his roster, so I'm surprised he even has two wins. He literally lost to the guy with the best record by nearly a hundred points. Two bad only his 49ers defense are on bye or I'd be laughing my ass off next week. I got Ray Rice playing clean up so hopefully I'll have the win before he takes the field.

lol..that kicker scored more points than any one of my players. How embarrasing. Crabtree might be worth a look. He got a number of targets his way this past game (9 catches 77yds). Maybe why Vernon Davis was such a letdown for me this week. Not sure how consistent he can be though.

@apostle..lol. i also saw someone in my league who had at least 2 players on bye week (maybe even 3) and they still won their matchup.

Finally, I should be firing on all cylinders this week.

Drew Brees
Darren Sproles
???
Anquan Boldin
Greg Jennings
Larry Fitzgerald
Jason Witten
Ravens D/ST
Janikowski

Question is...who should be my number two RB? Willis McGahee, Marshawn Lynch, or Daniel Thomas? I'm leaning toward Lynch.

Ehh, I really like Daniel Thomas. He is gonna put up some numbers. Lynch is not consistent and even when he is its not that great. I would take McGahee over him.

I got Brady on a BYE this week, so I am gonna take a risk and start Tim Tebow. I really think he is gonna have a great game against the Dolphins this week, mostly running.

Probably gonna end up regretting it, this team is 6-0 on this season and I do have Colt McCoy in my bench. :?

Daniel Thomas is available in one of my leagues. I'm thinking of picking him up for Tim Hightower.

Thats ridiculous, he should be owned in every league. He is a great flex option and a bye week replacement.

I want to be in a lot of the leagues mentioned ITT ...even in a 10 team league that is ridiculous 10 teams...3 starting rb's + 3 backup rb's per team = 60 rb's per league even if you say 5 rb's per team = 50 rb's per league D thomas is in the top 50 most valuable rb's...easily

I got Jimmy Graham as my starting TE. Just noticed that I also have Jason Witten and Aaron Hernandez. WTF? Its a 12 team league and these are elite TE's.

I'm not really deficient in any category, I just drafted really well??

I really just noticed that, I got some trading to do!! 8)

^That's a nice selection of TE's to choose from. Aaron Hernandez TD against the cowboys cost me the game last week. I lost by just over 1 point lol.

Who should I start at QB this week..Cutler or Matt Ryan? I'm personally thinking Cutler this week since they're coming to London and they might pass a lot to wow the fans haha. But I am sceptical about which O-line will turn up, the one that started the season poorly or the one that did a decent job against the Vikings D line

I would go with Cutler out of those two. Ryan just hasn't performed well and they run the ball alot. Julio Jones is banged up and is questionable this week. Have you considered picking up Tebow?

Drafting Chris Johnson and P.Rivers has ruined my FF season. Both are busts that will probably do big things when it doesn't matter anymore.

Santana Moss broke his hand. Gonna cut him for the Texans defense to fill in for the Packers' bye week. I got other receivers anyway and I'm starting to think I have a shot at the playoffs in my ten-team league with only one loss.

EDIT: Alright, I'm currently in second, a game behind. The first place guy lost and I won (didn't play each other), so we're tied. I estimated that need to do 36 fantasy points better than him. He's playing Garcon with no one left while I'm playing Sproles and Kasay with only Ray Rice left. Well, I'm ahead by 36 now. Rice guarentees my first place. We play each other next week (my 4 Packers players have the bye week obviously but I've already replaced them), so that should be exciting. :D

Ugh... Looks like Tim Hightower is out with an ACL tear... I guess I'll drop him for Jonathon Stewart while dropping DeAngelo Williams for Mark Tolbert.

TEBOW, TEBOW, TEBOW!!! So glad I benched Rivers on 3 of my teams and started Tebow on all of them. And 2 of those teams also had DeMarco Murray in for Hillis and Burressssss for Welker!!! 8)

Went for 9-0 second time this season, at this rate 7 of them look really good in making the playoffs and the other two still have winning records.

I can't think of an instance where I would start Stafford over Brady... (and Stafford in my fantasy QB) I am not saying there will not be weeks were Stafford won't outperform him, but Brady is far more consistent and less injury prone. Also, Brady has had success against the Steelers (so that doesn't affect my choice)

Staying from Tolbert like the plague at this point... 1. I hate the Mathews/Tolbert time share anyways 2. He is questionable and has not practiced all week 3. He plays on Monday night. so if he doesn't play = you are screwed (can't sub anyone in)

I actually have those players and have to choose b/w them for a different reason (not b/c of J best) I am going with Washington b/c of the defenses they are both playing. -Battle going against a pissed off SD team, 14th best against RB's -Washington going against Indy, 30th worst against WR's

I'm liking my chances of leading one of my leagues after this week. We're both 6-1. I'm playing most of my best players (sans 4 Packers members due to bye week) while my opponent has a lot of injuries and four of his players are on bye. He's playing Fitzpatrick over Eli Manning (with Manning playing the Rams); starting Addai and Beanie Wells (who kicked my ass once in another league) over Fred Jackson and Ahmed Bradshaw; Santonio Holmes (Bye) at WR with Pierre Garcon in the Spread and Brandon Jacobs on the Bench; and Kellen Winslow (Bye) over Benjamin Watson. He can't do anything about M. Bryant or the Jets Defense, both of which are on bye week.

Manning and the Giants are playing the Dolphins this week, still a good matchup. Drew Brees and the Saints are playing the Rams.

FitzPat and the Bills are playing the Redskins

My mistake... Still noit sure why he has Manning benched though. I'm playing him in my other league but that's just because Rodgers is on bye. :D

EDIT: Wait... The Saints are playing the Rams? PLEASE tell me Sproles is starting in place of the injured Ingram! :D

^awesome dude. he has a great matchup so hope he performs for you.

I just saw Desean Jackson was projected 6.3 points against Dallas. How do you think his matchup is? Should I put in Nate Washington for him and start Battle at W/R? I currently have Nicks, Jackson as starters and Washington at W/R

In the last game against Dallas, DeSean went for over 200 yards (on like 6 catches) and TD. DeSean is a hot-cold receiver. He may get you 6 points... or he may get you 20+

So, I was just reading up on players for one of my teams when I saw this:

TE Fred Davis is the first Redskins tight end with four games with 80 yards receiving in a season since Chris Cooley did so in 1987. (Yahoo! Sports)Yahoo

WTF?! The only Chris Cooley I know of that has played for the Redskins is currently playing, and he was drafted in 2004. I can't find any others on the internet. Is this ZOMGZ teh typo'd?
