Week 2- Start em Sit em 

Post#1 » by LApwnd » Tue Sep 13, 2011 6:25 pm

Figure Id start it off :D

this is really tempting but I have Stafford & Vick, I sorta want to start Stafford based on what he did vs Tampa as well as what Buff did to KC. Vick had nice week 1 but half of his pts were from rushing, that can't be good for a QB and Atl is certainly a bit better D then Stl.

Also Steve Johnson or M. Williams? I have Williams & Blunt and a bit worried about TB offense, Williams only did what he did at the end when TB was clearly in pass mode.

Lapwnd: I'd run with Vick over Stafford this week but they are both great options.

Bac2Basics: I think Blount would most likely be the play for a rb2 I think they want to get him in the mix. Althought Tolbert had a massive game hes nursing a knee injury and I doubt that he will get 3 red zone scores.

now my question:

RB2 Standard scoring league
J. Starks vs. Carolina or Shonn Greene vs. Jacksonville

have Blount as well, quite disppointing week 1 if he cant get it done this week, I lose all hope :lol:
but of the 2 I'd go Blount/Starks. I dont think SD can run it in on NE, they'll have to pass for it.

Really tough RB situation 

Post#7 » by aaa » Thu Sep 15, 2011 4:06 am

Standard scoring, 10 teams. 3 spots for:

LaGarrette Blount @MN
Jahvid Best vs KC
Shonn Greene vs JAC
Reggie Bush vs HOU
BenJarvus G-E vs SD
James Starks @CAR
Cadillac Williams @NYG

Im really torn. Blount and Greene burned me last week so I'm hesitant on them.

I think i'd go with Best, Blount, and Starks.


I got another one my wr 3:

Henderson vs. CHI or Julio Jones vs. PHI

just picked up Henderson and I'm a little worried about the Nnamdi factor with Julio.

^ I'd say it's a crap shoot. I'd go w/ Henderson though, just because Jones is a rookie.

I have three I need help on...

Packers DEF/ST vs. CAR or Ravens DEF/ST vs. TEN?

Steve Smith vs. GB or Stevie Johnson vs. OAK?

Jermichael Finley vs. CAR or Owen Daniels vs. MIA?

Steve Smith vs. GB or Stevie Johnson vs. OAK? - Stevie Johnson - GB is gonna clap down on the Carolina passing game.

Jermichael Finley vs. CAR or Owen Daniels vs. MIA?
Finley is a must play every week.

Percy Harvin or Dwayne Bowe?

I'm leaning toward Harvin since KC will probably look to get their running game going with Charles and it's Vikings home opener as opposed to KC's playing on the road at Detroit...

Felix Jones vs SF defense or Blount @Minnesota?

My gut says go with Felix Jones but Blount could have a bounce back game and TB could run the ball more than last week.

Isn't Donovan the QB in Minnesota? Not sure I'd want to start anybody he's throwing to. I'm also hoping and counting on Blount to bounce back this week(maybe if he got more than 5 carries that would help), as I have him on my team too. Which leads me to my dilemma:

2 RB, 2 WR, 1 FLEX spot:

Charles/Blount/Cadillac/Tate/Greene/DeAngelo?

Leaning towards Charles/Blount/Cadillac, but if Tate is heavily involved again this week I might have to go with him over one of them(probably Blount, though Charles has a tougher matchup I guess). I have zero confidence in either Greene or DeAngelo, though I am sure if I bench them they'll have monster games.

For my WR's, I have Roddy/Marshall/S. Johnson/Bryant.

I am leaning towards Marshall/S. Johnson this week, though I would usually not ever bench Roddy.

Decisions, decisions...
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Pick my flew player, non PPR

S Smith vs. GB, ocho Cinco vs. SD, Julio Jones @ PHI, or Jacoby Ford @ Buf.

Originally I was gonna play ben tate, but it looks like foster is playing now. I cant see S. Smith having a repeat game, but the other three are risky too....SJax getting hurt screwed my team

Definitely not Ocho, the guy barely plays any snaps right now. I could see Jones struggling against Philly's secondary. I'd probably go Smith. GB will try to take him away but Cam is obviously comfortable with him and will probably try to force balls to him.

Pick 2 to go along with Charles: .5 PPR

Starks @ Car
DeAngelo vs. GB
Ingram vs. Chi
Addai vs. Clev

Leaning towards Starks and Ingram right now. I feel like their teams will be up in the 2nd half and run a lot.

I'd go Starks & would lean toward Addai.......Indy should bounce back against a much lesser defense in Cleveland

I agree with B2B with starks and addai, but the problem with Addai is carter is likley to get any goaline carries.
