Week 3...Who should I start?

Hey guys,

I'm in two potential dilemmas, so some help would very much be appreciated!

The first potential dilemma is my qb situation. Does one start Tony Romo on the road against the Bears, or does one start Philip Rivers on the road against the Packers? It seems like a no brainer, but I'm really not sure on this one.

My second potential dilemma is my RB/WR situation. I have:
Rudi Johnson at Seattle
Willis Mcgahee vs Arizone
Maurice Jones Drew at Denver
Carnell Williams in St.Louis

at the WR I have
Randy Moss vs Buffalo
Torry Holt at Tampa Bay
Roy Williams at Philadelphia
Ronald Curry vs Clevland

My league allows 2 rbs, 2 wrs, and 1 rb/flex, who should I start this weeek gents?

Thanks alot!

Rudi and Willis for RB

Randy and Torry for WR

Roy for RB/Flex (Philadelphia seemed to have trouble with quick and speedy receivers)

My league starts 2 RB and 1 flex and I need to choose between LJ, Edge, Lamont, and Ahman. Which three do I go with this week?

Two of your guys don't have the best matchups in the world but they also the two with the most chance of finding the endzone. So you have to play LJ and Edge. The last one is pretty easy for me Jordan is going up against a terrible defense and he should be able to have a huge day. I think the Texans will end up playing from behind most of the day which will cause them to go away from Green.

Romo Vs. Bears...

He has more options than Rivers. Way more.

My turn:

Struggling McNabb at home vs Detroit or sucky McCown against horrific Browns pass defense (also at home).

Cooley against bad NYG pass defence or Heap.

Cheers

i would choose rivers over romo. i think rivers and the chargers will bounce back in green bay.

Cooley against bad NYG pass defence or Heap.

mcnabb. he's off the past two games but he was decent in fantasy aspect. mccown had a great game against detroit and you should expect the same with mcnabb. mccown has injury concerns and culpepper is likely to take over the starting job.

cooley.

jason campbell vs. the gaints
or
tony romo vs. the bears?

i'm starting campbell but romo has been fantastic and dallas is more pass happy than the redskins.. hm... tough choice.

Eh not really a tough choice. The NYG can't play defense or a team that is very good at it. You go Campbell.

At WR - Bernard Berrian, Jerricho Cotchery, Shaun McDonald, or Darrell Jackson?
At RB - Chris Brown, Maurice Jones-Drew?

Or I could start 2 of those WRs and not any RBs. This is for the flex positions.

In my other league, Reggie Bush, Adrian Peterson, or Marion Barber III? Pick 2.
Larry Fitzgerald, Bernard Berrian, Shaun McDonald, or Isaac Bruce? Pick 2.

Jones-Drew and Cotchery would be my picks in league one. Just make sure Cotchery is healthy. I know he missed practice earlier in the week.

Peterson is the easy pick for league 2. For number 2 it depends. If you have a point per reception I'd give Bush a shot. If not just hope Barber finds the end zone.

For WR while Fitz is having a down year so far I would still go with him. And the Rams will end up passing a lot so I'd go with Bruce.

I play in a .5 points per reception league. The only reason Bush hasn't been total crap, just close to it.

true but the redskins can just run it against the giants.. i just don't want that to happen..

I think you'll be just fine. Perfect time to use Campbell with that matchup.

You think its that big of a difference? I was leaning towards edwards. I am thinking that the Brown/Raiders game is going to be more high scoring then then what maybe a low scoring Miami/Jets game.

Edit: Also throw Plax into the mix

Plax
Edwards
Coles

Who sits?
