DISCLAIMER: I feel that before I offer any advice, I should mention something. I do pretty well at fantasy football; I do insane amounts of pre-draft research every year, I draft well, and I'm luckier than a leprechaun. I've made the playoffs in my main league every year for the past 15 years, and I'm one game away from being in my 4th straight league Super Bowl. HOWEVER.... my knack for making the wrong call when it comes to lineup decisions is uncanny. Legendary. Eerie. In fact, that knack for picking the wrong guy to go with each week is the reason I began a "Who Should I start?" thread last year. I haven't kept track of how often my advice in here is good or bad, so maybe this "skill" only applies to setting my own lineup. I'm not sure. I just thought it was worth mentioning.
[quote name='evildeadjedi']^ Don't see anything wrong with those decisions. Especially since San Diego brings the pain at the end of the regular season every year.
Here is what I'm starting most likely:
QB Josh Freeman vs DET (Cutler is too inconsistent though. I also have Sam Bradford)
WR Mike Williams TB, Danny Woodhead NE, and Pierre Garcon IND (also have Miles Austin DAL and Roy Williams DAL really leaning toward Austin especially since the game is at Dallas)
RB MJD JAC LeGarrette Blount TB (I also have Ricky Williams Mia)
TE Rob Gronkowski NE (Since Gates SD is probably not playing tomorrow another option is picking up Chris Cooley Wash)
K Shayne Graham NE
DEF Arizona vs Car (other options are Tenn, NE, and TB) I think I'm going to go with Arizona due to "the Carolina effect" sorry Panthers fans. However, if Rogers can't play against NE I'll probably go with them instead.
Would anyone make any changes to these?[/QUOTE] I think I would start Austin ahead of Woodhead, and yeah- if Rodgers doesn't play, I'd go with the Pats D, too.
[quote name='Jimbo Slice']I gotta start 3 of the following 4... what do you guys think?
Adrian Peterson
Darren McFadden
Jonathan Stewart
LeGarrette Blount
AP and McFadden seem like no brainers, but I can't decide between Stewart and Blount (both have Favorable match-ups in ARI and DET, respectively).
Also, which of the following WR would you start (only 2)
Welker
Desean Jackson
Kenny Britt
Jacoby Ford
Terrell Owens
I've been rocking primarily Welker and Jackson all season. Welker has been maddeningly inconsistent, though. I'm thinking about Jackson and T.O. What do you guys think?
Also... last question Marcades Lewis @Indy or Tony Gonzo @Seattle?
Playoff time is rough.[/QUOTE] I would go with Stewart at RB3, Jackson and T.O., and Gonzales. My opponent this week has Gonzales, so I fully expect him to go off.
[quote name='ayolykewhoa']Despite being 2nd in points differential and points scored, I'm 5th in my league. Tough choices this week:
Hillis or McFadden?
Tamme or Vernon Davis?
and I need to select 2 out of a group of Steve Johnson, Sidney Rice, Anquan Bouldin, and Austin Collie[/QUOTE]I would start McFadden, Tamme, Boldin, and Collie.
[quote name='lordopus99']Mendenhall (NYJ) or Torain (@DAL)???
Who should I run as my 3 WR (non PPR league)...
- Mike Williams (Seattle) (ATL)
- Austin Collie (JAC)
- Danny Amedola (KC)
- Anthony Armstrong (@DAL)
Lastly, should I give up hope on Orton or continue to run him, thinking the last two weeks were flukes?[/QUOTE]Mendenhall is due to get back on track, but I'm not sure he'll do it this week. I think I'd go Torain. I'd go Collie at WR3. Who else do you have at QB besides Orton?
