Felix Jones, Jonathan Stewart, or Ben Tate?

12/12/2011 1:52:19 PM

Not trying to be a homer, but Felix is the only one not sharing time and MJD just destroyed the Bucs D. (Yes, I know Felix is far from MJD)

12/12/2011 2:07:10 PM

Drop Matt Forte & Frank Gore for Andre Johnson & Ben Tate??? Tight rosters and it doesn't look like Forte is coming back. Gore looks done too, at least until playoffs. Looks like he'll get minimal work and share reps with Hunter rest of way. Both AJ and Tate are available and look to have some favorable matchups ahead (that is, if Johnson comes back as well).

"How are you in a league where a starting QB and a TE who was in the top 5 last year don't get drafted?"

Simple.

Cam Newton is playing above expectations.

Gronkowski and Hernandez were suppose to split duties at TE with Hernandez predicted to be the better of the two at the beginning of the season.

12/12/2011 6:57:34 PM

I think i am the only person in the world who fist-pumped at that last minute sack of Bradford by the Seahawks D! Went from losing by 0.2 to winning and going to fantasy super bowl! gotta love dumb fantasy sports wins!

12/12/2011 11:42:19 PM

Cam and Gronk weren't drafted in my 8 team league. Cam wasn't drafted in my 12 team league. Newton was supposed to be caveman dumb and terrible.

I foolishly picked up Hernandez in the 8 team league, and someone else got Gronk the same week. He got the better of that bet.

12/12/2011 11:49:16 PM

Newton wasn't drafted in either of my 10 team leagues and was taken in the last round of my 12 team league (and dropped prior to week 1 lol). Gronkowski was drafted in the 12th round of my 12 team league, 12th round of a 10 team league, and 7th round of another 10 league.

12/12/2011 11:59:16 PM

Shouldve figured with my luck at RB this year (Jamaal Charles and Fred Jackson out for year) that somebody else would go down just in time for playoffs. God dammit Demarco Murray

12/13/2011 6:25:38 AM

:shrug: Gronkowski came on pretty well at the end of the year last year, and was a better bet than half the other TEs in the league. I can understand Cam not being drafted, but he was a starting QB who had more upside than Beck/Grossman, Henne/Moore, and TJax among others.

coworker got fucked over by that garbage time lynch td- lost by .13, thus missing the playoffs despite having the highest total point in the league

12/13/2011 8:11:47 AM

Should be a fun playoffs. I powered through losing Peyton Manning, Kenny Britt, and Darren McFadden. And now I can't use Forte or Jennings.

12/13/2011 8:40:15 AM

Is that a keeper league, otherwise why in the hell would you have manning?

Somehow I don't see myself doing much in the playoffs since my rb's consist of Michael Bush, CJ Spiller and Willis McGahee. I am down to starting 2 players that I drafted (Steve Smiff and Antonio Gates). At least now my white bench isn't filled with injured starters, just shitty backups.

12/13/2011 9:30:00 AM

Which D/ST?

Seahawks @ Bears
Bears vs Seahawks
Bengals @ Rams?

12/13/2011 10:20:14 AM

Drop Matt Forte for Kevin Smith?

12/13/2011 1:18:30 PM

is forte coming back?

Who else you all picking up this week to save your playoffs? I need to drop DeMarco Murray

12/13/2011 10:13:18 PM

Finished as the #4 seed in my $ league, and play the #1 seed. I love my matchups for my RBs though

Adrian Peterson vs Saints (still questionable I think)
Rashard Mendenhall vs 49ers (#1 rush defense)
Ryan Matthews vs Ravens (#2 rush defense)

I did manage to pick up Felix Jones (@ Bucs) off of waivers, so I might be forced to start him this week.

12/14/2011 6:56:05 AM

^^^^ Bengals, its the Rams c'mon man
^^^ No timetable on Forte, isn't there anyone else you can drop?
^^ Titus Young is my sleeper pick of the playoffs
^ Gotta start Felix over one of those 2 bad matchups

Need 2 RB 2 WR and a flex (current starters in bold)
Peterson (NO)
Bradshaw (Wsh)
Greene (Phi)
K. Smith (Oak)
Barber (Sea)
Fitzgerald (Cle)
L. Robinson (TB)
T. Young (Oak)
D. Baldwin (Dal)
N. Washington (Chi)

Lions (Oak) or 49ers (Pit)

12/14/2011 4:25:06 PM

I wouldn't drop Forte...they haven't ruled him out this week(doubt he plays) but he may not be far off.

12/14/2011 5:27:48 PM

Here's my line up this week:

QB - Matt Ryan vs. Jac
WR1 - Dez Bryant vs. @TB
WR2 - Percy Harvin vs. NO
RB1 - Arian Foster vs. @Car
RB2 - Darren Sproles vs. @Min
TE - Jake Ballard vs. Was
W/R/T - Roy Helu vs. NYG
K - Neil Rackers vs. @Car
DEF - Tennessee vs. @Ind

BN - Steven Jackson vs. Cin
BN - Greg Olsen vs. Hou
BN - C.J. Spiller vs. Mia
BN - Antonio Brown vs. @SF
BN - Felix Jones vs. @TB
BN - Houston Def vs. @Car

Any suggestions?

I don't. I drafted him before it was known he was hurt so I had to do the whole season with a QB2.

12/14/2011 6:09:24 PM

^^Honestly, I'd start Felix over Sproles and keep Helu in there. Felix is going to get ALL the carries against the dead-last rushing D in the NFL.

Which team will win:

TEAM A

Brees
Chris Johnson
Roy Helu
Beanie Wells
Calvin Johnson
Percy Harvin
THE GRONK
Cardinals D/ST v. CLE
Dan Bailey, DAL

TEAM B

Matty Ice
LeSean McCoy
Michael Bush
Marshawn Lynch
Jordy Nelson
Mike Wallace
Jimmy Graham
Cowboys D/ST vs. TB
Olindo Mare, CAR

[Edited on December 14, 2011 at 8:19 PM. Reason : .]

12/14/2011 8:17:33 PM

Antonio Brown @ SF
Laurent Robinson @ TB

who should I play at flex in a PPR league

12/15/2011 5:14:16 PM

^IMO, If Big Ben plays then I'd go Brown. If Roethlisberger is out, then Robinson.

Lions D (@OAK) or 49ers D (vs PIT)?
And at the flex:
Ryan Grant (@KC) or DeSean Jackson (vs NYJ)?

12/15/2011 5:18:55 PM

palmer is a turnover machine, but i'd go with san fran at home, especially if Batch is playing. i am starting sf in one of my leagues. flex is a toss up to me. can't trust djax to do anything against anyone, much less against the jets secondary. even though grant may start, he still only got 10 carries last week. i guess i would go with grant, as he may have some momentum on his side.

playoffs time:

ATL defense against jax
or
TEN defense at indy

12/15/2011 6:44:08 PM

i hope you chose ATL defense.



Playoffs matchup and I need to set my RBs

Pick 1.
Stephen Jackson vs. Cincy
Roy Helu @ NYG
Beanie Wells vs. Cleveland

12/16/2011 9:49:57 AM

Chris

12/16/2011 9:54:36 AM

do huh?

12/16/2011 9:55:27 AM

Chris "Beanie" Wells I'm guessing

12/16/2011 10:17:37 AM

WHICH DEFENSE DO I START:

Arizona vs. Cleveland
Houston vs. Carolina
Detroit vs. Oakland

12/16/2011 10:20:39 AM

^^lol, didn't even cross my mind

12/16/2011 10:34:04 AM

^^ I'd go with Arizona. They're actually not terrible, have potential for return TDs, and have the most favorable match up (Don't even know who the Browns backup QB is)

12/16/2011 11:09:49 AM

Pick 3 out of these RBs (Bold is starting)

Stephen Jackson vs Cin
Reggie Bush vs Buff
Beanie Wells vs Cle

Kevin Smith vs Oak
Ben Tate vs Car

Pick 2 WR (bold starting)

Vincent Jackson vs Bal
AJ Green vs St Louis

Torrey Smith vs SF

or

Steve Smith @ Hou

12/16/2011 5:16:48 PM

Tough one...

I would go with Steve Smith even though he is against the number 1 Defense. Rams are a joke.

12/16/2011 5:46:18 PM

I am only starting 3 players who I drafted this week

12/16/2011 7:07:48 PM

gore, michael bush, marion barber pick 2 gore and bush smart pick but something is telling me pits d is not going to give him a thing and put in barber?

12/16/2011 7:18:58 PM

Seattle's defense isnt exactly a pushover

12/17/2011 11:46:11 AM

Dez Bryant @ Tampa Bay Bucs

or

Brandon Lloyd vs Bengals

?

12/17/2011 12:36:32 PM

^Dez Bryant


Im starting Rex Grossman vs the NYG

over

Sanchez vs Philly
and
Palmer vs Det

Good play? I honestly do not know who the worse D is vs the pass. I am leaning towards the Giants because they are injury laden.
ESPN predicts 21, 17, 14.
for my Flex position:

I am currently starting Kevin Smith vs Oakland, but he is questionable. Complete big or nothing player.

or I could play:

Denarius Moore vs Detroit
Darrius Heyward-Bey vs Detroit
Lance Moore vs Minn

ESPN predicts 15.5, 11.5, 4.5, 12 in that order. Im currently leading the #1 guy in the league by 15 points since apparently each playoff round is two weeks.

12/18/2011 11:33:07 AM

I'll jump in with one..1st round of the playoffs.

Pick 3 out of these 5 - PPR league:

Calvin Johnson
Nate Washington
Lance Moore
Santana Moss
Donald Driver

Need to hedge a bit as I'm projected down by 20 to the #1 guy who is 12-2..although, both of his losses are to me.

12/18/2011 11:42:08 AM

^^ - I like the Grossman play. Giants are giving up 2nd most pts against QBs.

For your flex in your +15 position, I have no idea with your selections. Maybe Denarius Moore is the most solid performer? All the others seem to blow up or do nothing.

12/18/2011 11:48:47 AM

PRIV vs Baltimore

or

Tebow vs NE

i'm such a rivers homer, i have a hard time sitting him. dammit!

12/18/2011 11:50:44 AM

I'd go PRiv although also may be blinded by bias (both Pro-PRiv and Anti-Tebow).

12/18/2011 11:54:36 AM

Torrey Smith vs SF

12/18/2011 12:18:28 PM

[Edited on December 18, 2011 at 12:37 PM. Reason : w]

12/18/2011 12:37:47 PM

^^ Go with what you have

Marion Barber (Sea), Ahmad Bradshaw (Wash), or Kevin Smith (Oak)

Lions D (Oak) or 49ers D (Pit)

12/18/2011 12:43:51 PM

Agreed on S Jackson. Although, his late TD last week eeked out a win for me and got my wife the final playoff spot in another league. Plus, without Bradford starting today SJax should get more looks.

12/18/2011 12:44:45 PM

^^ Barber redeeming himself and Lions D.
