Do I start Mike Thomas over Ward this week for WRs?

Yes.

slouchostinko combined for 58 yards, good thing I benched them where I could but in one league, TO and Dez gave me 1.7 points :(

I should win my matchup in the money league. Down by 3, but I have Reggie Wayne, so a TD or 40 yards, and I'm good. If he only scores 3 points, I still have a good chance since I have Gates on my bench. Even if I didn't, Steve Breaston (his bench) would still have to score 15 points, just for a tie.

Thomas did terrible Ward did decent, still i manged to squeak by and get a victory in my money league thanks to Tom Brady and Peyton Hillis.

Yup, Peyton Hillis scored for me just under half of what my opponent's team is going to finish with. Looks like I'm going to 12-0 this week with a 174-100 or so victory.

thanks for nothing vincent jackson. sure am glad i left deion branch and mat forte on the bench.

I should have known VJax & Rivers would bone me after Bowe trumped Hillis.

I still trail by 12 but he only has Feely left while I have Gore & Breaston. I should be fine but it's still annoying when a W should already be in the bag.

yeah, lucky for me manning had a terrible game too. i have gore left and he has vernon davis, i should be fine.

Silly people thinking Vincent Jackson would explode after being gone for almost a season. Left without a catch

He was my only option after Nicks went down. Stupid.

I am not totally out of it - I'm down by 28 going into tonight with Gore and Fitzgerald. It's winnable, I think.

Put up a pretty solid week, and look to be headed into the playoffs as our league's number one team after knocking off the other 9-2 team this week.

I've got a motley crew of talent and have essentially survived off of the waiver wire.

QB - Aaron Rodgers (OPP - Philip Rivers)
WR - Reggie Wayne, Jabar Gaffney, Deion Branch (OPP - Santonio Holmes, Danny Woodhead, Steve Breaston)
RB - LeSean McCoy, Donald Brown (OPP - Chris Johnson, Knowshon Moreno)
TE - Aaron Hernandez (OPP - Antonio Gates)
K - Garrett Hartley (OPP - Mason Crosby)
DEF - Cleveland (OPP - Tennessee)

Bench
RB - Justin Forsett
WR - Mike Thomas, Lance Moore
DEF - Oakland

I've left a couple of open spots on the roster for waiver/free agent pickups, and they've been filled this season with matchup players. Cleveland was a product of "sign whoever plays Carolina", and ended up not working as planned as the game was actually close. Either way, I'll gladly take a 50 pt win over the other top team in our league.

I should be safe unless troy smith gets 38 points. I think I'm pretty safe

he was injured. its not like he was shut down all game. not to mention rivers sucked in general, no SD receiver had a good game.

that being said, hes on my bench until further notice. Forte is getting the start this week, 2 straight weeks of double digit games and playing Detroit.

Fantasy wise, sure. Real world, he was more than fine.

No sense slinging it around to a gimped receiving corps when his defense & running game were kicking Indy's ass.

A double douching by injuries this week. Fantastic.

I'd be pissed about Gore's injury likely screwing me out of the playoffs but if he's out for the season I wouldn't win anyway.

For this week PPR league can start 2 out of the three WRs
Mario Manningham NYG playing WAS
Santonio Holmes NYJ playing NE
Steve Johnson BUF playing MIN

Any advice?

Johnson & Manningham

I picked up Westbrook and Gerhart since Gore is out for the season and AP looks to be out this week. Hope he's not done for the season as well as that will be a huge loss for my team (pretty much locked into 4th place for the 6-team playoff).

Sucks for my opponent this week that had Gore. He would've beat me had he not got injured. And to make matters worse, I picked up Westbrook before he did! He ended up picking up Brandon Jackson, lol!

I lost when Gore went down and now my season may be over. I'm in second place but I lost Gore and Nicks in the past 2 weeks. I put in a waiver claim for Westbrook for $50 which is 1/4 of our season budget but I need him to stay competitive.
