I'd go with Jacksonville. Bears have a much better special teams though, probably best in the NFL. Chargers going to put up more points than Cleveland though especially if Peyton Hillis is going to continue holding out for his contract.

Roddy White or Vincent Jackson this week? I'm leaning towards V-Jack but he's been feast-or-famine this season & the Bears' D has been tearing it up lately.

I have roddy white in one league. he has been terribly disappointing, but at least he has been consistently mediocre V Jack has 3 or 4 good games an almost nothing in the others I would base your decision on if you think you need a home run or a single...if you need to gamble or play it safe

Yeah, sometimes it's better to go with average over someone who can have big games but doesn't do it often.

Smith. Goal line carries usually to Kuhn or Rajji now apparently.

I have sooooo many players playing on thursday in both leagues. I hate that. I always like having my players play last/later as I still have hope League 1: Romo, Rice, Jennings, Pettigrew, Cundiff League 2: Stafford, Pettigrew, Crosby /rant Also, CJ Spiller is a hell of a pickup as he can play both WR and RB ...though he can only ride my bench in one league at least I kept him away from others...will start at WR in other league though over Brandon Lloyd

Tough one here. A.J. Green or Dez Bryant? Dez has been pretty mediocre lately and has been completely shown up by Laurent Robinson. A.J. is playing the Steelers... seems like a gamble either way.

Anyone?

They're both projected at 12 XD

I'm leaning Dez though. Arizona's D isn't too great.

I agree with that reasoning ...also, teams might eventually start paying more attention to L. Robinson

Pick up the Patriots D/ST this week. Indy going to Foxborough with a 4th string QB? I'm not saying the Pats D is great, but this should be a blowout.

things have a habit of not working out that way in the NFL though- the way you think ...usually the first start for a QB goes well (then they get film on him) + NE D is not very good But Bill does seem to do well against 'new' qb's (even though this QB is not new)

You're probably right, but I bet a lot of it will just be garbage time scores. Either way...I'm sticking with the Ravens.

Well if you got Baltimore then of course play them, but if you're like me needing a win this week with other questionable defenses, Patriots look like a potentially good pick. I'd imagine the time of position would be dominated by NE too.

Trying to figure out my third spot.

Julio Jones *Q* @ Houston
Peyton Hillis *P* vs Baltimore
Torrey Smith @ Cleveland
Denarious Moore *Q* @ Miami

Leaning toward Hillis as he had nearly 20 carries last week, but he's facing Baltimore
I'd probably go with Moore, but it doesn't look like he's going to play

Two of those times came against the Patriots. I think a Colts upset would be hilarious.

Wow that's pretty hard. You're seemingly screwed no matter what.

julio more than likely won't do anything this week. Peyton probably won't score because they'll fall behind and have to throw. Torrey is probably the most unpredictable starting receiver. Not sure if Denarious is really healthy...

You could try and hit a homer with Torrey otherwise I'd guess Peyton is probably your best option.

I was going to drop Carson Palmer for Andy Dalton. I'm dropping Palmer for Matt Flynn instead. In my other league, I'll wait a couple weeks until the Packers announce Aaron Rodgers is sitting the last couple weeks to drop him for Flynn.

I barely made it in my league's playoffs and need some help deciding my starting RBs. I need to start 2 from Bradshaw (@DAL), Greene (KC), Wells (SF), Helu (NE), or K. Smith (MIN).

Dude, just forget about Wells. He is playing San Fran. 1 Running back has scored on them ALL YEAR (LeSean McCoy), and it was on a receiving TD. I would go with Greene and Kevin smith.

Is Kevin Smith even playing? ...if so, still too risky IMO (he went out last week again) SF has not allowed a rushing TD all year = no Wells for me (I have him in one league) I have Helu and am starting him ...but shanny likes to troll FF players. so use Helu at your own risk (Forte is out for me, so no choice) Don't have a read on either Bradshaw or Greene Greene has not had a good year (aside from last game) Bradshaw is still recovering. Also, which dallas D is going to show up and what Giants team is going to show up

Yeah Smith is most likely not going to play. He did get 13 points this week even though he got injured so hang on to him though. Smith will most likely come back the week after and be much healthier. Then he will be worth considering a start/flex.

Okay... Carson Palmer is playing the Packers, followed by the Lions, over the next couple weeks. Both have defenses that give up a lot of yards and points. However, where the Packers give up TDs, they make up for it with INTs. Therefore, I'm considering dropping Tony Romo for Matt Flynn to prepare for when the Packers rest Aaron Rodgers for the playoffs. I'd start Palmer for a couple weeks until Flynn starts for the Packers. I'm 60 point favorites going into this weekend's matchup AND the top seed in the league. Also, will Rodgers leave the can't drop list when he gets benched?

you think flynn is going to outperform romo :? -romo will be fighting for a playoff spot with all hands on deck -if they sit Rogers, do you not think that they will sit many other offensive stars or at least not play them the full game...not to mention that he is still a backup and it is not just some great system where you can plug anyone in

This. Do not drop Romo for Flynn that is a horrible move.

It's the playoffs so I have two decisions:

Matt Moore vs. the Eagles or Alex Smith vs. the Cardinals?

Early Doucet vs. the 49ers, Robert Meachem vs. the Titans or Davone Bess vs. the Eagles?

What do you guys think?

Moore vs Smith is kind of a toss up. If it were me, I'd take a gamble with Moore since this entire Eagles team is in disarray.

I'd take meachem. Brees can spread it around well. I don't like anyone against the 49ers and I haven't heard of Bess :P

That's it... After watching Ingles complain about DeSean Jackson.................. Should I play him or Nate Washington? I'm 30-point underdogs, currently at the 4th seed and will place 4th, 5th, or 6th. If I win I'm likely to face this week's opponent next week at 30-point underdogs.
