Fantasy Football who to start

[creepworm]

Its a PPR league. I need two running backs

Maurice Jones Drew vs. San Diego

Steven Jackson vs. Oakland

Leshaun McCoy vs. Detroit

Brandon Jackson vs. Buffalo.

MJD and McCoy

Jackson is an intriguing play... but who knows how much they'll run with him. Its close between him and McCoy - but the Lions stink so much I'd go with whoever plays detroit. its a can't miss fantasy strategy

[thatoneguy]

MJD and McCoy - no two ways about it.

[CJH]

No reason to sit MJD unless he is hurt. He's one of those guys I would never bench, he's just too good.

[FISHINGURU]

I'd go MJD and Jackson especially in a PPR league.

The Rams won't be able to air it out that much going against a pretty good Oakland secondary. Look for Jackson to get some good yards on the ground and the underneath pass.

Mccoy would be a strong play against the Kitty's but I'd go with the tried and true guys for now.

[creepworm]

MJD was getting the start no matter what as long as he is healthy. Steven Jackson has a sore knee which made me think about benching him. Brandon Jackson I figured might be good because it should be 21-0 by the end of the first quarter so he should get plenty of touches. Leshaun also should get plenty of touches and receptions so I really don't have a clear cut decision. I do think that no matter who I start, they will give me a solid amount of points.

Which back would you sit this week? I can start 3 backs.

Pierre Thomas(N.O.) against the 49ers

Brandon Jackson (GB) against Buffalo

DeAngelo Williams (Car) against T.B.

Darren McFadden (L.A.) against the Rams.

[FISHINGURU]

I'd bench Jackson personally, my reasons would be because you haven't seen how well he can do yet or how they will use him, they spread the ball around in the red zone and also Rodgers likes to run it in too.

I'd play Pierre and DeAngelo forsure though, McFadden should be able to rip up the Rams pretty good but it's a toss up between him and Jackson IMO.

[goblueM]

nah i'd play Jackson... the staff in GB love him, Buffalo sucks, and he did look good after Grant was hurt.

Bench McFadden

[creepworm]

I agree. You absolutely cannot bench Deangelo or Pierre. Mcfadden is a good option but I would go with Jackson.

[FISHINGURU]

YAAAAAAAAWN, you should of played Mcfadden.

[Rip_Some_Lip]

YAAAAAAAAWN, you should of played Mcfadden.

I did play McFadden although I still got my butt kicked...unless Pierre can give me like 35 points tonight...lol.

[FISHINGURU]

Hehe, I feel ya, I need 25 out of him to win in one of my leagues. All it takes is a couple long runs and a couple TD's. Anything can happen, I remember way back when I was down 60 points with Peyton and Marv left and Peyton threw for 6 TD's and 3 or 4 of them went to Marv and I won. It was either a Sunday night game or a Monday night game, that ruled.

[Craigums]

How would you guys set the RBs and WR/TE's, We are allowed any combination of 3 WR/TE's

[creepworm]

Boy, thats a tough one. I think Jermichael could do better than Cooley. I would leave the rb's the way you have them seeing Jahvid is being just plain rediculous, so he should have a decent game even against the Vikings.

[Craigums]

Im actually thinking off swapping all of my WR/TEs and going with boldin, MSW and finley, even though the other guys have out produced them up to this point

[FISHINGURU]

I'd take out Collie and Cooley and replace them with Boldin and Finley.

[curtistodd]

I wouldnt change a thing! Im guessing you are 2-0.

[JeffB]

Ok since I have some of the same backs I'll revitalize this thread and ask my question for week 3. A. Foster Hou vs Dallas D., C. Benson(Cin) vs Car., L. McCoy(Phil) vs Jac., D. McFadden(Oak)vs Ariz. I am debating on which of these backs to sit. I had to pick up a couble of these backs after Ryan Grant went down for the season, but I think they all look pretty good, and I dropped Clinton Portis. Thanks.

[FISHINGURU]

YAAAAAAAAAWN, hopefully you played Boldin and Finley!!

[gr8icefishinmind]

this week.........matt schaub or a revenge minded donovan mcnabb???

[creepworm]

I would think that Mcnabb would have the better game. Oakland's pass defense is not bad and Andre could be a step or two slower than normal if he even plays. Plus, I think the Texans will hand Oakland a heavy dose of Foster seeing they struggle against the run.
