    I have Sporles, F. Jones, R. Brown, and S. Jackson. Need to bench one.

    I'm thinking Sproles, Brown, and Jackson because its not completely certain that Jones will get the start.

    Start Sproles, Steven Jackson, and Brown.



    I benched Chris Johnson, DeAngelo Williams, and Jonathan Stewart in a league today. Starting at RB I have Fred Jackson and LeSean McCoy. I am starting the other Chris Johnson at DB!

    Raining in Foxboro, should I bench WR Roddy white in the flex position and go with Reggie Bush against Buffalo?

    I'm thinking Bush will be targeted a lot out of the backfield with Pierre Thomas still a little banged up.

    Gotta start two. Portis, Sproles, Felix jones, Steven Jackson

    I'm leaning to Sproles and Jones because of matchups, my thoughts are Jackson's team could be down early...

    Portis has a great matchup... any advice?

    Glen Coffee (SF) or Fred Jackson (BUF). Singletary says he will not shy from the run while Gore is out. They face 2 soft run D's coming up. Jackson begins his time share with Lynch this week. Suggestions please.

    Both are easy.

    Rodgers - Sanchez should have a good game, but the Jets are going to try to run the ball down their throats when they have the ball early, not throw it. Minnesota defense is more susceptible through the air.

    Coffee - STL defense isn't very good against the run. Miami defense isn't bad, and Jackson is going to be in some sort of a timeshare. Give me 20-25 carries against the Rams any day of the week.

    M. Lynch vs Miami - still think he will get 15-20 carries, especially around goal line
    L. Washington vs New Orleans - could this be the game he breaks a big screen play?

    need one of them. Thanks

    Lynch was just reinstated today. I don't think he'll be very effective this week, nor do I think he gets close to 20 carries.

    I've been waiting for Washington to bust out a big game. It hasn't happened yet, but who knows? I don't particularly like either one this week, but I'd probably lean toward Washington.

    So, I shouldn't start Colston this week, right? Or should I? I don't really have a lot of options left, but my other WR's are:

    Donald Driver @ Vikings
    Nate Burleson @ Colts
    Pierre Garcon vs Seahawks

    I need to start 3. I'm thinking of going with the crew listed above, but Colston/Brees just sound like too much of a good combination to pass up. However, I don't see a worst matchup between these 3 than Colston vs Revis.

    As long as you think Revis is going to be on Colston all day, you don't start him. I'm not sure how the corners are going to be utilized.

    The other three all have good matchups.

    Standard scoring, no PPR

    Got Forte at RB1, and Choice as Flex, who should be RB2?

    Bush v. Jets, Jones v. NO, Bradshaw v. KC, or Barber v. Denver?

    I'd go with Barber facing Denver.

    I'd bench Garcon and start Colston...

    I'd go Bradshaw against KC. Mike Nolan has Denver defense playing well, and I don't know how many carries Barber gets. I think the Giants roll KC. Then again, if you hear good things about Barber Sunday, I definitely can't blame you.

    The Yahoo update on Bradshaw is that he sprained his ankle against TB.......Coughlin said he'll still play....but who knows at what capacity.

    But Anthony Gonzalez is still out and Garcon has scored a TD in the last 2 games. Nothing is guaranteed with Colston especially since I don't know if Revis will be on him all game long. I'm leading to believe he will be. Especially in the redzone.

    He's probable. I don't think Revis will be on Colston all game. Saints have too many weapons, I think Ryan will move Revis around to put him in position to make plays. Besides, Lowery and Coleman aren't fast enough to cover guys like Henderson one-on-one. I just don't think you can bench Colston, not for Pierre Garcon yet.

    Need a Flex

    WR - Dwayne Bowe KCC vs. DAL
    RB - LeSean McCoy PHI vs. TBB

    If Westbrook wasn't coming back this would be an easier decision. Although I think because of that Bowe is the logical choice.
