Offical Who To Start Thread

[Bear Pand]

Whys everyone so high on Mike Wallace this week? I think he'll have a solid year but with Dixon throwing to him?

 

[Colonel Angus]

This.

I think the toss up is between Greene and Harrison. Harrison is going against a terrible run defense, so I think you start him. Ronnie Brown should get the bulk of the carries in Miami until he inevitably gets hurt again..

 

[Colonel Angus]

Joe Flacco Jets
Vince Young Oakland


?

This one is pretty darn tough even though I think the Jets are very overrated. No one who sits out of training camp is ever unaffected, and Revis will be no exception. Oakland has a good young defense. All that being said I think I would go with Young just based on how explosive Chris Johnson is.

Joe Flacco Jets
Vince Young Oakland


?

Honestly I am going to say Young against Oakland.

anyone else?

Young @ Oakland

 

[G-men]

Can start 2 RB, 3rd at the RB/WR position.

Steven Jackson @ Arizona
Jerome Harrison @ Tampa Bay
Ronnie Brown @ Buffalo
Shonn Greene @ Baltimore

Who's the odd man out? Also got Michael Bush.

Jackson, Harrison, and Brown

SJax is a top 5 RB and Harrison and Brown are both going up against shitty defenses

 

[G-men]

anyone else?

Young because he has the potential to put up rushing numbers as well and maybe even a TD.

 

[G-men]

I can start 2 RBs + 2 WRs + 1 RB/WR

Darren Sproles
Jamaal Charles
LaDanian Tomlinson
Willis McGahee

Calvin Johnson
Wes Welker
Chad Ochocinco
Jerricho Cotchery

RB: Charles
RB: Tomlinson
RB/WR: Ochocinco
WR: Johnson
WR: Welker


(sorry for the triple post :smug

 

[G-men]

hooray for all the people that were told to start Hakeem Nicks. i, for one, know that hes killing me this week.

 

[Colonel Angus]

Hey Colonel,

Arian Foster is the starting running back and should see the bulk of the carries easily. I would say 15-20 carries plus a few receptions. I could see even more work, to try and keep Manning off the field. He played well in the pre-season and should be a focal point of the offense. He was solid at the end of last season, and it seems the coaching staff is confident in him.

As for the receiver situation,
I would go Nicks and Mike Williams. And then Nicks.

I'd thank you 100 times if I could for nudging me in the right direction with Nicks. Holy shit!

 

[Fappin Raptor]

Nicks should be an automatic start in most leagues I would assume.

 

[Chrispy]

Benson over Foster was a bad idea

Benson - 43 yards, 1 TD, 11 Rec. yards, 1 fumble - 9 points
Foster - 231 yards, 3 TDs, 7 Rec. yards - 41 points

:smh:

 

[Fappin Raptor]

Austin Collie over Derrick Mason is already looking like a bad idea for me.

 

[Cody]

Austin Collie over Derrick Mason is already looking like a bad idea for me.

I had Collie benched :crying:

 

[jms493]

i shou;d have played Hightower

 

[Maize]

I'd thank you 100 times if I could for nudging me in the right direction with Nicks. Holy shit!

Well I'm glad you took my advice. I drafted Arian Foster and Nicks in one of my leagues, lets just say I'm looking at a win. I was shocked by the game Nicks had, but he is a touchdown and PPR machine. Will never be a big yardage guy.

And holy Arian Foster! I thought he might get some carries, but 33?!? Outstanding game for him.

 

[Fappin Raptor]

My Hightower over Grant choice worked out in my favor.

 

[Champ]

How about Naanee at JAC Massaqoui at KC or Mike Williams (TB) at CAR?

 

[Tailback U]

I'd go with Naanee. I don't expect him to go over 100 yards again, but he has the best QB out of that bunch throwing to him and it looks like he is turning into Rivers favorite WR.

My dilemmas this week:

Legedu Legedu vs. JAQ
Crabtree Vs. NO
(Leaning toward Legedu Legedu)

Cadillac Williams vs. CAR
or LeSean McCoy @ Detroit
(Leaning towards McCoy)

In another league....

Brandon Jacobs @ Indy
Felix Jones Vs. Chicago
(leaning towards Jacobs based on Foster's game vs. Indy)
