Week 6 Start 'em or Sit 'em

    Same old conundrum for me....Romo vs. Vikings or Cutler vs Seattle

    Romo hasn't found his groove yet and Cutler is coming off injury against a pass D giving up 300+ per game.

    Other situation I got is Roy E. Williams or Eddie Royal
  2. bruce1337 SRMer

    Romo and Roy cause all that team does is throw the ball. Plus I think Dez is questionable...

    Which QB do I start?

    Orton, Roethlisberger, or Flacco?

    Orton or Rapelisberger. It would be a coin toss for me. Orton has been the most consistant QB in ff this season. Rapelisberger could be rusty and the Steelers have been a run first team all year. I'd probably lean towards Orton who you know is going to jack the ball up almost 50 times.


    12 team ppr league. Pick one to start next to Orton, AP, AJ, R. White and Dallas Clark.

    Brandon Tate (Baltimore)
    Aaron Hernendez
    Wes Welker
    Michael Bush (SF)

    If DMAC misses another week Bush could get close to 30 carries against a bad San Fran run defense. No one knows how the NE offense will play without Moss and who is going to be the go to guy. Not sure if Welker has the same sort of value, better value or worse value than he had before the Moss trade. Leaning towards Bush again this week because of that.

    I have some questions myself. Roy Williams, Brandon Tate Nate Burelson or Deion Branch. I think that you starting Romo is a good deal. I think Cutler is just a hit away from being out a while. I just hate having Roy Williams - everytime I have him he is a dud. I can't believe he actually caught a touchdown in consecutive weeks. I made a trade and he was a throw in so I started him. I have nobody else that's why I picked up Tate, Burelson, and Branch.

    Another question about another league.

    14 team PPR. 5-0

    Flacco
    CJ
    Forte
    Santana Moss
    Pettigrew (Finley's WW replacement)


    With CJ (WR) looking like he is going to miss the week I have a couple options. 1.) Start Felix Jones who is getting more carries but playing Minnesota. 2.) drop Steve Smith and pick up a WW WR or TE like Greg Olson, Mike thomas, Earnst Graham, ect.

    Im, hard to believe I am questioning this, the way the season started... thought this was my only lock position...

    Brady vs. Baltimore without Moss, or Shaun Hill vs. NY Giants?

    I am most likely going with Brady, but it is just uncomfortable, which is weird.
  7. dolfan2004 SRMer

    Also: choose 3...

    Brandon Lloyd
    Kevin Walter
    Steve Smith (NY)
    Davone Bess
    Brandon Tate

    Tough dolfan,.....Id go Lloyd, Smith and Bess (or Tate....cant go wrong with either.)

    For me, its tough. I can start two RB in my keeper league, two WR and a RB/WR Flex. Here are my options.

    RB: LeSean McCoy (Seattle)
    RB: Matt Forte (Atlanta)
    WR: Randy Moss (Cowboys)
    WR: Malcom Floyd (Rams)
    RB/WR: Rashard Mendenhall (Browns)

    I also have Wes Welker, who will be playing against Baltimore, who could unseat Flloyd, but I'm hesitant because the Chargers play the Rams, and Floyd went off last week. I also have Santonio Holmes and Kevin Walter, but I don't think they figure into the equation.

    If its worth anything, I'm also likely starting Big Ben ahead of Rodgers this week, partly due to matchup and Rodgers' concussion.
  9. kevinwayne20 Banned

    Would anyone else start Michael Bush over Wes Welker, Aaron Hernendez, or Brandon Tate at flex in a PPR League? I'm already starting AP, AJ, R. White and Dallas Clark.

    Bush could get 30 carries against a bad San Fran run defense and you don't know Wes Welker's value with Moss going down. Tough one IMO.
  10. kevinwayne20 Banned

    Its Mccoy vs Atlanta and Forte vs Seattle. I like what you have proposed. If you knew what the New England offense was going to be like without Moss then maybe you could find a spot for Welker but it is a big question mark still.

    Ben or Rodgers is a tough one. The Steelers are going to run the ball much more than the Packers. I wouldn't worry about the concussion effects. He wouldn't be playing if there was an issue. I'd probably lean towards AR but I'm not sure you can go wrong either way. Ben could very well have some rust and he was terrible in his last meeting with Cleveland. That offense is kind of an unknown right now IMO.
  11. dolfan2004 SRMer

    gotta factor in the match up also... Miami is the 4th best pass defense in the NFL. Cleveland can't do anything right on that side of the ball it seems... and Pittsburgh will get alot of shots on offense with McCoy QBing Cleveland... Miami will look to run the ball and keep it away from Rogers... I think both will have good, not great fantasy days and put up similar points... so I agree that you can't go wrong either way.
  12. kevinwayne20 Banned

    I don't put much into rankings 5 games into the season. Miami has faced one really good passing attack all year and Tom Brady completed almost 80% of his passes in the game. Mark Sanchez also absolutely abused their secondary. Not too worried about their ranking this early in the season.
