Kyle Orton and Brandon Lloyd have combined for 8 points in the 2 weeks since Josh McDaniels was fired. I'm benching/dropping them

yeah man.. I have a day to sit on it. I think I almost have to play him, especially with Jennings not having Rodgers.

I fully agree here. I'll be starting him in my 3rd WR slot this week in my league semifinal game. The upside is way too much to pass on IMO. VJax gave me some breathing room on Thursday night, so it may not matter by Monday anyway

Who do you guys like at TE this week: Zach Miller (Oak) or Kevin Boss?

I'm gonna go with Boss myself. I picked up Gronkowski but, he's so unpredictable.


I can pickup Owen Daniels so this brings an interesting point:

Owen Daniels HOU or Kevin Boss NYG?

Big Ben or Cassel? (assuming he plays)

^I like Daniels.

Holy crap here we go - PLAYOFFS?!?!?

Good luck everyone unless you have Tawmmy or Turner - concussions to both please!

Do you guys think it would be outrageous to bench AP in favor of LeGarrette Blount? My other 2 RBs are McFadden and J-Stew so I am starting both of them.

Thinking about going Blount over AP in the flex spot.

Branch or Jennings?

With Rodgers out it might be too much of a gamble. But the Pats love to spread the ball around.

^Hmmm, that's a tough one but, with Rodgers out and Branch being on fire the past three weeks I'd go with Branch.

Hmmm, this is a tough one cause it's all day but, most likely the bears are going to stack the box and make Jackson beat them with his arm not to mention AP is marked as questionable. Detroit is 22nd in total D but, the run D is their best area. However, Blount is a powerful runner and if they stack the box, Freeman will torch the secondary.

I'm starting him because my other choice is Woodhead. However, I just don't know if I could bench AP.


After much debate I'm going with Daniels over Boss and Gronkowski, hope my gut is right this time.

Final lineup:

QB Josh Freeman TB
WR Mike Williams TB
WR Miles Austin DAL
WR Pierre Garcon IND
RB MJD
RB LaGarette Blount TB
TE Owen Daniels HOU
K Shayne Graham NE
DEF New England

I know, I have about 7 minutes to decide... leaning toward benching AP... advice please!

Flip a coin heads AP tails Blount.

Well Adrian Peterson is riding the pine this week in favor of the running back trio of Blount, J-Stew and McFadden. *CROSSES FINGERS*

Do you guys think I mismanaged my team at all this week?

Looks very good, I bet you had a tough time benching Welker. Granted, unless it's the D, Kicker or Brady, it's tough to tell who is going to do the scoring for the Pat's week to week.

Yeah this was actually the first week I didn't start Welker. I'm sick of him not showing up though, and Kenny Britt seemed like a must-start against a terrible Houston secondary.

Not in a PPR league I take it?

Yeah my league is non-PPR

PS: Vick and Jackson are killing me

I see that, my opponent happens to have Jackson.

Blount is doing well though already got 12.20!

That makes sense then, cause he tears it up in PPR.


Hmmmm Boss and Daniels have done nothing so far.
