yes, certainly worthy of POY status. That is amazing.

Detroit over San Fran all day for week 15. I wish I would have been able to pick them up off waivers but I couldnt so I am going to roll with St. Louis.

Who do I sit this week: AP (yeah right!), Knowshon Moreno, DMC, Lawfirm?

I'd keep a close eye on DMC and if he's like 100% sit Lawfirm, if not bench McFadden.

Hard to sit Seattle Defense. I'd just assume they're going to crush it because Doug has them! Then Jets. Wouldn't consider Denver.

lol im not the one thats 7 for 7 with teams in the playoffs. Hell i only had 5 out of 12 make the playoffs. I do love Seattle D though, pretty much my sleeper D at draft time. This week is weird, i mean there are better matchups. Bills could run the ball all game with spiller, this would be bad for Seattle D. Also Fitz shows up once every few weeks.

Denver was at the bottom of the list. I like Jets bc I like having players on MNF.

A bit skeptical of Seattle coming off that big game and having to travel cross-country.

The Jets aren't a bad play, they have been good lately. Double digit pts in 4 out of the last 5 weeks. Only allowed something like 16 pts in the last two.

Serious question. How many teams did you have Shonn Greene on? How many of those teams made the playoffs?

Only 1 team in my 7 leagues that made the playoffs had him on their roster.

It is comforting knowing you have guys going on Monday night. Powell may be able to run the ball to waste some clock too.

I'd still go Seahawks, but it's close.

I would have Jets on MNF and Hernandez SNF....his team would be done.

I guess i'll wait and see how things play out this week. Tough call to make....

think i got him on 3 teams,,,1 by trade. One of which is still in it.

He certainly hasnt turned out to be the stud i thought he would be by now. I saw him as having Jerome Bettis type potential as a powerful inside Rb. He is built like a tank (ever see his neck? its like my thigh) and he is faster than most people think. So far he doesnt seem to have much patience (letting blocks happen). Alot of the best RB will slow themselves down to let things open up when they got nothing. Im sure a big part of it is the Jets in general, coaching and O-line. Who knows,,he could still come around and im sure ill draft him a couple times next year.

Well it looks like DMC will be playing cuz he is practicing. Do you still play Knowshon over Lawfirm if you are also starting Peyton and Demarius Thomas? I have been riding these to buckin' broncos all year so I don't want to sit them even against Baltimore but I do have Big Ben, Crabtree, Torrey Smith, and Antonio Brown that could step in to dilute the Bronco gene pool.

I only made the playoff in 1 out of 3 leagues so I am listening to the Fantasy MVP.

Looking for a little advice to get through my semi-finals.

Seattle or Jets DST?

and

David Wilson or Cecil Shorts in the flex option?
Aces or Eights!!!

I'd play David Wilson there even if Bradshaw plays. They aren't even sure if Shorts is going to play and if he does they are going to be careful with him.

I like the Jets D for this week. I've played them the last two wks actually, but I'd probably still be playing Seattle if that's what got you there. They have been solid all yr. I like the Lions better than the jets though. AZ sux


Jermaine Gresham, Greg Olsen or Dennis Pitta at TE this week??

Thanks. Seattle is hard to bench after putting up 41 pts last week.

Olsen isn't a bad play since that should be a favorable matchup, but I've heard a lot of people talk about rolling with Pitta.

Agree with Shawn, Wilson is a start even if Bradshaw is ok. Bradshaw has been banged up all year, it would be shocking if he got more carries than Wilson.


No real big decisions for me. Biggest one is Maclin or Dez Bryant. Im rolling with Maclin and benching Bryant. Philly game is 2nite so i dont have time to wait to see about Bryant's finger. If i dont start Maclin and Bryant ends up being out my next option is really bad. Cant risk it.

I'm in the same boat between NYJ and SEA.

Just realized SEA doesn't have to travel AS far because they are playing in Toronto - more neutral than "away" for Seattle.

Still a toss-up for me, but SEA is the #1 ranked D/ST this week vs NYJ at #5.

Stroika I'm expecting a big game out of law firm tonight. I'd start him. Must win game and the Bengals are regretting not giving him the ball more last weekend and letting Dallas come back in the game. I don't think they're going to make that mistake again.

Reggie bush vs Eric decker is my biggest concern. Leaning towards Reggie.

Moderately concerned about Matt Ryan over dalton but I've been rolling with Matty ice all year and he's treated me well. Here's hoping that I don't regret it!

I was and will continue to start BJGE and sit Knowshon unless DMC has a set back. I feel like Knowshon is a product of the system, not raw talent. I have been riding Ben Jarvis all season. He may be the only RB I have started every week other than his bye week on any of my teams and he really hasn't let me down. Thanks for the reassurance. Plus, I am hoping to get an internet feed of TNF tonight.

I've been able to run with Trent Richardson and Jamaal Charles all season and they've run like clockwork for the most part.

BJGE >>> Knowshon

I may need an intervention. Why do I keep considering benching Ray Rice? Is it wise? McFadden, Moreno, Rice, and Spiller. I like them all. I can only play three. I want your top three and reasons why. Help me out if you want to, and think you can talk some sense into me.

McFadden sux in the blocking schemes. That limits his appearances. The other 3 are solid. DMC is very injury prone also.

That is a good problem to have Mike but never bench Rice. Spiller is money now that that other guy is out of the picture. It looks like DMC will play so I would and am benching Moreno to play him.
