    Steelers 37, Rams 17
    in my league.
    Those stats are tentative. The numbers may change by 1 or 2 points. It doesn't look like I received any points for the 2-pt conversion Cedrick Wilson threw. That might be worth a point.

    If you let me know what the stats are I can answer your question.
    Is it only based on points allowed or does your league also take into account sacks and INTs and that sort of thing?

    vast majority of leagues do use sacks and INTs, some use special teams as well.

    toss-up next week.

    Gotta go with the Vikings. Has nothing to do with the fact that I'm a Jets fan - it's just the better play.

    If it was me, I might base my decision upon who starts at QB for the Jets. If Clemens starts you should feel confident he'll get sacked a few times and throw at least 1 INT. If Pennington starts, he wouldn't take as many sacks, you would think, and he'd protect the ball better.
    Because special teams comes into play, you might want to use Minnesota. There's a better chance you'd get a return TD from the Vikings than you'd get with the Titans.
    All that said, Clemens or Pennington, I'd probably go with the Vikings and just hope for the best.

    Well, for the record. I would of lost either way if I started Ben.

    But you can't imagine how much I was pounding the table when I saw Benny toss those TDs late in the game. I kept saying I cost myself a shot at the Finals and couldn't shake it.

    But I would of lost either way. Win 7 straight and OUT in 1 game.

    Let?s Bump this one, to prevent 15 "should i start ... or ...?"-Thread a week.

    OK, usual scoring. I need a #2 RB and a R/W Flex, my options are:

    McGahee (Cin)
    Parker (Hou)
    Perry (@Bal) and
    Mason (Cin)
    Eddie Royal (@Oak)

    Another Team, 0,5 PPR, rest usual, need a #2 RB

    McFadden (Den)
    Ronnie Brown (J-E-T-S) or
    Perry (@Bal)

    2. McFadden (I heard Williams is starting week 1)

    _____

    Now for me...Chris Perry or Jerricho Cotchery at FLEX? Give me some upsides...

    The last thing I heard about McGahee is, that he?ll start, but won?t be 100% for the first few weeks.

    Cotch untill Perry shows something

    Cotchery, considering the chemistry with Favre (work in progress -- but nice potential).

    Bulger or Kitna? (I know, neither option is sexy...), or I could drop one and pick up Warner. Thoughts?

    McGahee and Parker

    Definitely not Ronnie Brown. I'd go with Perry until DMF shows something.

    Depends entirely on your scoring. If it's PPR, go with Cotchery. If not, go with Perry.
