Which two would you guys start this week?

Mendenhall vs. OAK
Foster @ NYJ
SJax vs. ATL

Is it crazy to consider benching Foster this week? He's been a beast for me all year, but he's got the toughest matchup by far.

Also, which 2 WRs?

Nicks @ PHI
Colston vs. SEA
Wallace vs. OAK

I think Nicks is a must-start, and I'm leaning toward going with him and Wallace.

Alright I need some help with mine.

QB: Vick (vs NYG) and Orton (@SD) --> Obviously Vick

RB: LT (vs HOU), Gore (vs TB), Bradshaw (@PHI), Mccoy (vsNYG)
--> I'm not sure here. Definitely Gore, and I'm learning towards LT....thoughts?

WR: Andre Johnson (@NYJ), Mike Wallace (vsOAK), Malcom Floyd (vsDEN), Lance Moore (vsSEA), Wayne (@NE)
--> I get 3 spots. I was thinking Wallace because he's been a beast lately, and the staple Andre Johnson. Thoughts? Who should I have for a third spot? Reggie Wayne has been a dud lately.

TE: Moeaki (vsARI) and Zach Miller (@PIT) --> no idea on this one.

Should I start Moss over Thomas (Jags)?
TE-Miller or Boss?

Should I use KC's D or stick with New Orleans?

Vick. While the match-up isn't favorable, he will get the rushing yards. a TD or two, and some decent passing yards.

Foster may have the toughest match-up, but if Schaub's out he's money. Foster and SJax. Nicks and Colston.

Vick. McCoy and Gore. Wayne, AJ, and Floyd (if he doesn't play then Wallace). Moeaki

If you're talking Randy then play Thomas, if Santana then stick with Santana. Boss for TE. KC and NO is a toss-up, I may lean towards NO.

After starting the season with 4 straight losses, I've won 6 straight and moved into 4th place after being in dead place. Peyton Hillis saved my season. Torrain wasn't a bad pickup from waivers either. Same with Blount in a pinch.

I'm finally giving up on Fitzgerald and benching him for Dez Bryant (Roddy White is my #1 WR). A RB trio of Peterson, Hillis, and Blount will be good to me for the playoffs, though I'm playing Mike Williams (TB WR) over Blount this week in my flex based on the matchup for SF.

God dammit. Like I said, Forte randomly goes off for 20+ points. You better not let me down Felix Jones!

well, i didn't know the Dolphins played tonight, I accidentally had Ronnie Brown still in my lineup, as well as Marshall and Knox.. suffice to say, my fantasy season is probably over.

My opponent this week had Marshall in his lineup, but switched him out for Michael Crabtree about 5 minutes before kickoff. Also, I got a nice goose egg from Dan Carpenter, who has been lighting it up for me most weeks. On the bright side, my opponent had Cutler and only got 8 points from him. I had Miami's DST; they gave me 14 with our scoring system, so I guess that could have been worse.

I, too, received the Carpenter Laid Egg. However, my opponent had B-Marsh, so I can't be too upset.

Same here with effing Carpenter. And I also forgot there was a game last night. I really don't want to drop my game this week.

I dropped Mercedes Lewis in favor of Gronkowski this week. Really hoping Indianapolis doesn't cover him, considering they give up a good amount of points to TEs this year, and that Brady looks his way instead of Hernandez or Crumpler.

I'm off to a great start and no one on my team has even played yet. My opponent had Chester Taylor last night. 10 rushes for 11 yards. I'm down 1-0!!

Nice.

In my minor league (aka the family league with rules I don't like). I started the Bears D, so I'm up 23-0 right now (he had nobody).

I'm 5-5 in that league and barely holding on to the last playoff spot. I'm playing the best team in the league this week 8-2. But hey, I gave him one of his losses earlier in the year and I'm off to a good start. I'd love to make the playoffs in this league because I started out 1-3 and almost gave up on it due to the bad start and rules.

I picked Carpenter up the week after his second 5 FG game because my starting (and only) kicker got hurt and he was the best one available. So I missed out on all the Carpenter goodness to begin with.

I can't decide which league is my minor league one. I've been in a no-money league for 10 years with some of my closest friends and we constantly talk shit and it's great. The draft is in AC every year and the league is just a lot of fun. My other league is with a few of my friends but it is made up of 5 other guys I don't really know at all but there was a $50 entry fee so I want to win that one too.

I'm having a pretty good year in both: 8-2 in the no-money league; 2nd place and 2nd most points scored and 7-3 in the money league; 1st place and most points scored - by far - I'm 100 clear of the field.

My main league is with a good group of friends and coworkers. We've been playing together for years, but 4 seasons ago we started playing for money and the league is even more competitive than ever. I'm 1st place in this league right now, tied with another team at 8-2, but I have more points.

My minor league is with mostly family, the buy in is less, its the first year and it's just different (ESPN, PPR, divisions, positions, playoff schedules etc). So I pay attention because there's money, but I'd much much rather win my main league. I'm barely in 4th place at 5-5 in this league, but that's a playoff birth.

Then there is the CAG league. This is my third year (I think) playing with CAGs. I never seem to do well in those. I think I've missed the draft every year and after that I just can't bounce back. But I set my line up and cross my fingers. I'm 2-8 in this league and in 11th (yeah not last!).

Eli Manning or Joe Flacco?

Pick 2: Cedric Benson, Brandon Jackson, Shonn Greene, Reggie Bush

And then I have a W/R/T spot open and the options are: 1 from the above list, Pierre Garcon, or Lee Evans

In my other league, Carson Palmer or Matt Ryan?

Thanks in advance
