Thanks. This is actually for my GF's team. I'm trying to use her team to beat somebody who's a couple spots down from me in the playoff race. LOL!

LJ vs. Buffalo
or
Derrick Ward @ Arizona

Ward had 140 last week, and I am still iffy about LJ eventhough he will get the brunt of the carries.

I'm not sure if Ward will start since Bradshaw's there and Jacobs might go. How's Buf's run D?

Whew. I started Slaton and Portis. I was contemplating them and Parker. My gut told me that Cinci's D has improved recently especially since they held Philly to 14 pts. Well Parker only had 1.85. Hopefully Slaton and Portis kill that 20 fold.

^ The G-men used all 3 RBs last week very well. I don't expect them to have another near 300 yd rushing game, but as long as they are leading Ward will get carries.
I'm not too sure a Buffalo's run D. I don't think they gave up a lot of yards to Lewis last week.

Buffalo's run D can be stellar at times and most of the time. The only exception really against the Browns was when Harrison had that 72 yard run for a TD.

Well Big Ben came out with 37 points last night, I just hope Orton doesnt one up that and make me kick myself in the ass. That happened to me last week when I didnt start Cassel and he ended up with 66 points!

I'm considering benching Westbrook against the Ravens this week. He's so banged up he should probably be benched in real life anyway, plus he wasn't really used much last week. Thoughts?

Also for QB: Favre, Quinn, or Garcia? Leaning towards Garcia just because TB plays DET.

Yeah I would bench Westbrook if you have any other decent options. Favre is gonna have a tough time with Ten I think, Quinn even though he's probably gonna play has a broken index, and Garcia should light up Detroit especially seeing how their running game is kinda depleted with Graham out.

who else do you have at RB?

and i'd go with garcia. i don't think any of the 3 are going to put up big numbers, but garcia's probably the safest choice.

Chris Johnson, Larry Johnson, Kevin Smith. Have to start 2, could start a 3rd as a flex but I think I have enough strong WR's to use in the flex spot.

I think you'd have a better shot with Chris Johnson.

Should I start Antonio Bryant @ Detroit in my W/R spot, or Justin Gage vs. the Jets?

I am actually starting Bryant on my team and Gage on my gurl's team. Usually I would say Bryant cuz their playing Detroit but Kerry Collins has been looking for Gage a lot and despite the Jets good coverage he may still have a good game.

It doesn't make sense to start Leon Washington in a league that doesn't reward return yards, does it? I don't even know what I was thinking picking him up.

If I don't start Washington, my other options are Sammy Morris and Ray Rice. Any thoughts?

Sammy Morris is back to being the starter so I would start him. He's got a better shot at getting points against Miami rather than Leon Washington. Also Ray Rice has been splitting a lot of carries and has yet to even score a TD this season.

i'd go with sammy morris.

i considered picking up washington earlier in the season when thomas jones wasn't doing much, and it looked like he was going to start getting more carries. luckily, i held onto thomas jones.

Talk about two bad decisions today. Didn't start Leon Washington, and didn't start Trent Edwards.

I still got my ass kicked even though I have Randy Moss. I got to play Baltimore's D and Coles had a nice game. I think the average winner in our league scores 80-90 points. 3 teams had over a 108. Tons of scoring this week.

Yeah I opted to start Jay Cutler over Matt Cassell and got burned bad!! Cutler had 20 pts and Cassell had 66 which is the exact same thing that happened to me 2-3 weeks ago. Needless to say I loss due to this blunder!

Amazing. I wish my team could do that and get away with it. I dont think anybody on my team scored a touchdown yesterday. Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, Antonio Bryant, Marion Barber, Clinton Portis, Kellen Winslow, Eddie Royal, Jason Elam did ok, and my Jax D got pounded!

Yeah I'm fighting for the last playoff spot which is 6 out of 12 teams. Before this week I was in 5th but this loss will move me down to 6th and our last game before the playoffs start is with the guy who is in 5th place now. Actually I'm tied for 6th but I have more points so I have the edge.

Glad I started Randy Moss, but ronnie brown, chris johnson and reggie wayne all shit the bed for me. Can still pull it off though if Jennings has a decent game tonight.

Yep. I started Cutler over Edwards in one league, and Quinn over Pennington. Luckily I will pull it off.
