November 3, 201114 yr Any word on Mathews or McGahee? I may have to hit the waiver wire for a RB. Any suggestions? Matthews is going to play, but he's hurting and is one play away from the bench. Even if McGahee returns, Oakland is shutting down the rushing. You might want to hit the waiver wire. If you have to start one, go with Matthews and pray he makes it through the whole game.
November 3, 201114 yr Alex Smith @ WAS Tim Tebow @ OAK Flip a coin. Probably will post similar numbers. I'd probably go with Smith.
November 3, 201114 yr Chris Johnson vs. Cincy Jackie Battle vs. Miami This is my flex, I could plug in a WR, but I'd rather have an RB. Battle
November 3, 201114 yr Pick 2: Victor Cruz vs NE S. Johnson vs NYJ Green Ellis vs Giants A Johnson vs Cleveland (I don't think he will play) D Branch vs Giants Heyward Bay vs Den I was leaning toward Cruz and Green Ellis. I think S Johnson will have a tough matchup vs Revis. Cruz and Heyward-Bey
November 3, 201114 yr Usually people don't ask for advice on defesnses, but I'm playing the second place team in my league (also a good friend who will never shut up if he beats me) and I'm projected to win by .2 right now... We do lose gain/lose points based on points scored and yards allowed, then all your other standard scoring. Atlanta Falcons @ Indy Oakland Raiders vs. Denver I don't think you can go wrong with either D. Both have very favorable matchups. I'm going with Atlanta since Detroit is on a bye.
November 3, 201114 yr I don't need any advice, I just need a prayer. With McFadden likely out I'm forced to start one of the following. Kendall Hunter Bernard Scott Isaac Redman Brandon Jacobs Kevin Faulk Jacobs
November 3, 201114 yr Picked up R. Bush. Due to byes I have to flex an RB this week :puke: :lol: I totally understand when you have lack of options. Maybe he'll surprise all of us and actually do something this week. I wouldn't get my hopes up.
November 3, 201114 yr OK, with McFadden out I'm going to have to do some shifting here. I have McCoy as my RB1 and Battle has moved up to my RB2 spot with McFadden out. That puts me in need of a flex. I need a FLEX. Pick one. Marshawn Lynch @ Dal Darrius Heyward-Bey - Den Daniel Thomas @ KC David Nelson - Jets Heyward-Bey
November 3, 201114 yr Do I keep CJ in or roll with Brandon Jacobs vs New England? It's hard to sit CJ. As soon as you do, he's going to bust out. But how long can you keep hoping for his break out game. I'd go the safer route and start Jacobs this week and wait for a better matchup to go back to Johnson.
November 3, 201114 yr Pick 2... Payton Hillis @ Houston (Hillis first game back after hamstring injury) Brandon Jacobs @ New England (Bradshaw is out) Jackie Battle Vs Miami Battle
November 4, 201114 yr Not in a great situation here, but: Eric Decker @ Oakland David Nelson @ New York Jets PPR league. I'm going with Nelson right now. Stevie Johnson will be on Revis Island so maybe Nelson gets more targets. But Decker is about the only option for Tebow and they are likely going to be playing from behind all day unless Carson does his thing and keeps it close. He's managed decent numbers through garbage time too.
November 4, 201114 yr Author Battle and (I don't like either WR this week) Bouldin I can understand why. Boldin against Pit's D or Marshall against Brandon Flowers is rough. Would you rather start... David Nelson vs. the Jets (probably not) Michael Crabtree @ Washington (maybe?)
November 4, 201114 yr Author He's starting to show some signs of life. Yes he had 2 INT's last week, but he also threw for 369 yds. If Gates stays healthy, he will open things up for the WR's and RB's. That should translate to some good numbers for Rivers. No kidding, teams are double teaming him like crazy. I've never seen a defense double a TE like teams are doing to Gates.
