Tough decision for me.

Pick 3

Michael Turner vs NO
Matt Forte vs TEN
Chris Johnson @ CHI
Thomas Jones vs STL
Steven Jackson @ NYJ

That's a good problem to have.

Gotta start Chris Johnson, Thomas Jones and Michael Turner imo...I don't know if Forte will put decent #'s against Tennessee's defense but stranger things have happen...I should know I started Philly's defense over Seattle and the Jets defense got me more Fantasy points when they played at Buffalo???

I have to have a must win in Week 10...where do I begin? Do I start Cutler on Thursday against Cleveland and hope that Cutty has a bounce back game on the road. Or do I go with Garrard against Detroit and hope he gives me some Rushing or passing TD's. Logic and all the projected stats say he will fare better against a weak Detroit team...

So who would you go with? Garrard or Cutler?

Tough one. If Scheffler plays, I start Cutler. Although, Garrard is supposed to get Mike Walker back, so he could help that offense out. Jacksonville is a mess though. The OL is struggling, Fred Taylor is supposedly nursing some nagging injuries, Matt Jones is week-to-week on if he'll get suspended, John Henderson will probably get suspended after that fight last week, and Mike Peterson got sent home first thing this morning by Del Rio. JDR also ordered that some players change lockers to build chemistry. So things aren't well in Jacksonville right now.

I think Cleveland/Den could be a shootout with Brady now in for the Browns.

on the order that you have,
new orleans saints defense is #18 in the league against the run
tennessee is #10
chicago is #6
saint louis is #29
new york jets is #4 . . . 4? holy crap.

anyhow,
1. thomas jones at home is a definite start
and that is the only definite right now.
but chris johnson is RED HOT, and he can give you the passes out of the backfield. the danger is lendale white. with a solid run defense, key carries around the goal line might tip lendales way. in bear weather tennessee might go to the "mudder" or heavier back. lendale is that guy. that sucks though for fantasy with a dual back system.
and michael turner at home looks to be a good matchup, although steven jackson is a dual threat. the problem is the rams QB.
so thats
1. thomas jones
2. chris johnson
3. turner-jackson

probably berrian for that, charles is promising but a rookie and chargers d isn't bad and the chiefs will most likely be down and throwing

and the packers will be looking to stop the run, and Berrian is Gus' favorite wr by a long shot
and he's been on fire for about a month

OK, here's one to make everyone laugh, but please after you're done shamelessly haranging me, give your true opinio.

Who do I start at QB this week, Daunte Culpepper, Tyler Thigpen or Seneca Wallace?




Wow, that sucks even reading it.

I definitely wouldn't start Culpepper since this is his first week with the Lions. I would lean towards Thigpen because of the San Diego secondary.


Should I start Derrick Mason or Dwayne Bowe at WR?

As you go with Thigpen(and so did I even before reading your guys responses, although I flipped a coin best of 3 and Culpepper won, yikes), I go with Dwayne Bowe (Bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo......).

I am definitley going Turner and Thomas Jones.

I almost have to flip a coin on CJ and Forte.

I think I Forte because he is at home, then again Rexxy should turn the ball over at least 2 times, Titans up early, therefore try to control the clock and run the ball maybe more than usual?

Turner and Jones, literally flip a coin between the other 2, both should be solid because they are focal points of their offense, but both have tough, tough matchups.

Man, you only get to start 2 recievers, but you basically have 3 must starts.
Good problem to have though.

I am personally starting Charles as my flex.

I am also starting Berrian as one of my 2 WRs, my other is Avery, but I only have the 3rd option of Nate Washington, lol.

I guess I go with Charles, I am personally benching Ryan Grant in favor of him.

I went Forte/Jones/Turner.

I'm a genius. :lol:

I'm not benching Forte for the rest of the year. In his worst game of the year he gave me 40 rushing yards and 40 receiving yards vs the Eagles for 8 fantasy points. He has scored a TD or gone over 100 yards from scrimmage in every game but that one.

If you have Forte, I suggest you start him for the rest of the year as well.

I went with Garrard but doubt I bench Cutler from here on out...Damn I wished I drafted Thomas Jones or MJD over Joseph friggin Addai as my #1RB...
