    Should I start Selvin Young tonight? Reggie Bush's injury hurt in the flex spot (I'm in a point per reception league, so Bush was always my starter)

    or should I wait for one of my backs that is playing on Sunday: Kevin Jones or Clinton Portis.

    Also, I have a problem at wideout now that Roy Williams is done for season:

    Which 2?

    Coles (with a bad ankle) vs. NE
    Dwayne Bowe (who's been terrible lately) vs. Tenn
    Nate Burleson (who gets me return points and is Seattle's #2) vs. Carolina

    I'd stay with Selvin Young tonight.

    Bowe, Burleson at wide, I guess...not much of a selection.

    Not much selection for my flex position, but I do have great wideouts...I'm starting Terrell Owens and Braylon Edwards at WR. I have a pretty good team, I'm 11-2 and I lost the first game of the season by 3 points because the Jets DEF got me -4 points...I dropped them and I now have Seattle who has been dominant as of late.

    I just needed help for my other WR spot and WR/RB.

    Tough one, personally I would say Alexander, as I can see him getting quite a few goal line carries tommorrow

    I think I agree, but now I'm considering starting Gonzalez over Santonio Holmes. Thoughts?

    I would do it. I can't see Holmes getting two many yards against a solid Jacksonville D

    RB (I can start 2 of these): THE Adrian Peterson (a lock to be in my lineup), Kolby Smith (Ten), Chester Taylor (Chi), Kevin Jones (@SD), or Aaron Stecker (Ari).

    Right now I have Stecker in my lineup. I had Chatman too, but I just waived him because he won't play tomorrow and Week 16 is New England. Oh, and I waived the other Adrian Peterson earlier in the week because of poor matchups.

    I think I'd go Gonzalez, because Holmes is still banged up and Roethlisberger has a bad shoulder, which means that even if he plays, he's not going to be 100% on his throws.

    If it's ppr, go with Gonzalez. Otherwise, go with Shaun.

    I have the same issue in a money league.

    I would start Roethlisberger if the field was okay.
    I'm hearing it is not.

    bad situation, man. It's hard to recommend Big Ben with the supposed bad arm and the condition of the field. I guess I'd go Bulger against the slightly weaker pass defense, but it's a tough call. I have Big Ben and I'm benching him, although I do have Brees to start.

    As for the defense, the Giants have a better chance of getting the turnovers and sacks.

    The hell with it. I'm sticking with Roethlisberger. Technically, I'm sticking with the Steelers passers as this particular league uses Team QBs as opposed to individuals.

    I also have the Jaguars defense/special teams and I don't care about the head-to-head aspect of that.

    Big Ben took me the entire way to a excellent 10-3 season and 1st round BYE.

    But I made the decision to bench him, I'm going with Bulger.

    And sticking with Pittsburgh D because Polamalu is playing and the weather is bad.

    I think I can win even if I don't get a good game from the QB position.

    Him:
    QB- Arizona
    RB- Addai, White
    TE- Watson
    WR- Reggie Brown, Cotchery, Porter, Chambers
    K- New Orleans
    D/ST- Miami

    Me:
    QB- Pittsburgh
    RB- Taylor, Westbrook, McGahee
    TE- Davis (good game last night)
    WR- Edwards, Fitzgerald, Welker
    K- Green Bay
    D/ST- Jacksonville
