Yep. I have always thought -2 was too low for turnovers. But, IMO, -6 is too high. I'd be happy with -4. Anyways, I'll repost.for the new page...thoughts on:

My starter, RG3, is off this week. My back up is Eli. Should I start Eli (@CIN) or pick up Alex Smith (vs STL)? Only reason I ask is that this league is -6 for INTs and fumbles and +6 for all TDs. Eli will throw for more yards but also probably turn it over more. I think Eli is the right choice...I'm just too familiar with his multi-turnover games, though.

So should I start Chicago's D this week or Houston's? I hate not to start Chicago's but I feel like Cutler has a bigger chance of screwing up than Houston's offense.

11/7/2012 4:24:00 PM

Chicago D is lapping the field this year. The TD's are unsustainable, but I can't fathom benching them at this point.

11/7/2012 4:34:53 PM

^^^ Eli

11/7/2012 7:09:57 PM

A-Rod is on a bye this week. Who do I start?

Joe Flacco v Oakland

Ryan Tannehill v Tennessee

11/8/2012 6:12:53 AM

I'd say go Tannehill, only because Flacco is in a funk.

11/8/2012 6:36:01 AM

Tennessee is getting picked on bad. Tannehill is a good start.



Need some help with my Flex play this week.

Heath Miller vs. KC
Jamaal Charles @ Pit
Brandon Lloyd vs. Buf

usually i go with the RB in this situation, but Charles and KC just aren't doing anything right now.

11/8/2012 11:32:40 AM

And hasn't Miller been crushing it this year? As well as KC's pass defense being pretty bad. You might want to go with Miller.

I've got Charles as well and I don't know what to do. He still has the ability to have monster days...it just hasn't been happening recently.

11/8/2012 11:58:34 AM

the only upside to the decision is they both play monday night.

i started Miller in flex last week and it payed off. having him and Daniels has been great.

11/8/2012 11:59:56 AM

romo v. philadelphia
or
luck v. jaguars

luck's away stats vs. romo's historic stats against the eagles.

seems about a coin flip, but leaning towards luck.

[Edited on November 8, 2012 at 12:04 PM. Reason : e]

11/8/2012 12:03:55 PM

Aaron Hernandez vs. BUF or Jermaine Gresham vs. NYG

My gut says stay with Gresham

Brandon Myers from Oak is also available on FA

11/8/2012 1:43:33 PM

^^ i have the same decision and I'm rolling with romo

^ I'd personally not play hernandez until he shows he can play an entire game

11/8/2012 1:47:58 PM

^^ coin flip but I'd go with Luck so I'd have someone to cheer for in that shit fest on Thursday Night Football

^ Go Hernandez, Buf is terrible against the TE

Need 1 RB and 2 Flex out of (current starters in bold):

Jamaal Charles (@Pit)
CJ Spiller (@NE)
Miles Austin (Phi)
Mikel LeShoure (@Min)
Felix Jones (@Phi)
Malcom Floyd (@TB)
Kenny Britt (@Mia)

11/8/2012 1:50:55 PM

Andrew Luck @ Jax
or
Cam Newton vs Den

11/8/2012 3:21:59 PM

man, no one following the rules and helping out the posters ahead of you

^^I like the Floyd play here. TB just put there other CB on IR for the year. they are top 3 in fantasy points to WRs and Barber is old. Floyd could definitely get free deep. I think they'll be throwing the ball a lot here.

^I'm starting both this week. I like Luck vs. the Jags and he'll have a good game. But Cam could be playing from behind early this week which would give him a lot of chances to throw. It's risky.

11/8/2012 3:32:52 PM

^^I'd go Luck

^^^I might swap LeShoure with Charles, but that's tough. I would stick with Spiller. My first thought was Austin at WR, but ^ makes a good point, too. That one's tougher.

Help me with my flex spot (.25 PPR):
Brandon Pettigrew (@MIN)
Jacquizz Rodgers (@NO)
Mike Williams (v SD)

11/8/2012 3:40:10 PM

easy, Mike Williams

11/8/2012 3:41:04 PM

That's what I figured. I was thinking Jacquizz Rodgers might be a decent option going against Saints, but Williams is the safer guy.

11/8/2012 3:45:22 PM

would you guys trade James Jones for Matthew Stafford?

if. A) your other QB is tony romo

and B) your other WRs are R. Wayne, W. Welker, and J. Kerley


i'm thinking No but need some help. this is a 12 person league so the WR pool is empty. Actually, i'm almost positive this is a no. The trade is with the last place team but only one game back of moving into the top 6. Stafford doesn't offer me much upside to Romo while losing Jones would really hurt.

11/8/2012 4:21:21 PM

yeah, i was definitely leaning towards luck.

11/8/2012 4:29:53 PM

Titus Young or TY Hilton? Young has missed two practices and Hilton plays tonight so...

11/8/2012 6:56:38 PM

^^^ no way I make that trade.

11/8/2012 8:50:40 PM

Who to start, Michael Turner @ NO or Chris Johnson @ Miami

11/8/2012 9:01:03 PM

Turner.

Flacco vs. Oakland or Dalton vs. NYG?

Also just got offered a trade. I would send Alfred Morris and get Andrew Luck. My other RBs are Fred Jackson and Chris Johnson, my other QBs are (again) Vick, Flacco and Dalton. I don't see any way I can accept this, it would leave me way too thin at RB and I would have to drop at least one startable QB that somebody could pick up for nothing.

[Edited on November 9, 2012 at 9:58 AM. Reason : trade]

11/9/2012 9:51:18 AM

Yeah...but your QBs kinda suck. Flacco was above average, but is on a shitty streak right now. Vick is horrible and Dalton is doing pretty well. Your other RBs are pretty solid, you just might have to pick up a back-up just in case. Or get the guy to throw in a decent RB if he has one.

I don't think it's a bad trade...especially if Luck keeps it up.

11/9/2012 11:48:10 AM

I think it's a bad trade. If I had those rb's I would be starting morris every week. He's arguably the best back you have.

To me luck isn't a big enough upgrade over what you have to give up Morris.

11/9/2012 11:50:40 AM

Agree with ^

11/9/2012 12:06:48 PM

Yeah, I declined that one and we've been going back and forth with some trade offers. This is the latest one:

I give Chris Johson, Brandon Marshall, and the Ravens D and I get Andrew Luck, Trent Richardson, Steven Jackson, and the 49ers D.

My other WRs are Percy Harvin, Torry Smith, Steve Johson, and Danny Amendola.

So it is essentially CJ, Marshall, and the Ravens D for Luck, Richardson, and the 49ers D. I don't know if I can afford to give up Marshall, I'm currently leading my division by 2 games but I'm a long shot for a win this week. Any thoughts?

11/10/2012 1:06:04 PM

Marshall is too good to give up in that trade. I say no.

11/10/2012 4:15:13 PM

Pick one: Schaub or Fitzpatrick

Pick 1:
N Washington
A. Bolden
D Bryant

11/11/2012 9:00:43 AM

fitz.
bolden.

11/11/2012 9:14:56 AM

Steve Smith (car) vs Broncos or Malcolm Floyd vs Buccaneers?

11/11/2012 9:43:35 AM

I would go with Floyd, just based on TB have the worse pass D of the two.

11/11/2012 10:42:07 AM

^^ I'm hesitantly starting Smitty today. I hope I don't regret it

I need help -- Rivers or Freeman?

11/11/2012 10:46:25 AM

^
I reluctantly say Rivers. The SD defense has been pretty good this year.

11/11/2012 10:48:36 AM

I hate how up and down he's been. Luckily, INTs are only 1 point deduction in this league. Come on, Phil. Get me 3 TDs and 300+ yards

11/11/2012 10:52:06 AM

Who's the safer play, Stevie Johnson @ NE or Marcel Reece @ Ravens? I feel like Reece may be the stronger play given the depth on that roster right now.

[Edited on November 11, 2012 at 11:22 AM. Reason : .]

11/11/2012 11:14:56 AM

Percy Harvin inactive
Aaron Hernandez inactive

bench accordingly

11/11/2012 12:11:19 PM

ncstatetke

Rivers' left tackle, Jared Gaither is now inactive. Phil has been a train wreck in games he's hurt.

11/11/2012 12:11:21 PM

sounds like his blindside is even blinder now

so, Freeman is the way to go?

11/11/2012 12:18:39 PM

I'd say yes. But I'm a mental invalid.

11/11/2012 12:24:05 PM

Flacco or Romo?

11/11/2012 12:25:50 PM

Romo

11/11/2012 12:29:01 PM

Rivers or Cutler?

and where do you guys check for last minute injury updates before kickoff

11/11/2012 12:38:08 PM

Rivers

11/11/2012 12:38:35 PM

thanks for the player status advice in the CB hey now

I should have known that the miracle of twitter was the way to go

11/11/2012 12:46:43 PM

if you're just looking for the status of your own fantasy team's players, Yahoo, ESPN, etc tend to update each player's news item within an hour or two of the game

11/11/2012 12:48:22 PM

owen daniels or vernon davis?

11/11/2012 12:51:19 PM

LOL glad yahoo was freezing on me this morning and I wasn't able to swap out Freeman for Rivers

great start, Phil!!

11/11/2012 1:07:20 PM

Yahoo was fucked for everyone.
