Should I bench San Fran D vs the Giants in favor of Atlanta D vs Oakland?

Need one here.

Boldin vs Dallas
Jordy vs Houston
Titus vs Philly

No ppr

AJ and Bowe.

Would anyone trade Steven Jackson for Doug Martin. I have Jackson.

I do not know how healthy hakeem is, but reports were that he was looking ok to good this week. I am not saying to start him, but if he is healthy I don't think you can ever bench him.

Stevie is going up against Zona who has been good except for one game in pass defense. Johnson has 45 total targets on the year in 5 games, thats 9 per game, whereas Nicks had 21 in 2 but in both games he was playing injured.

So really I would look to see what they say because if Nicks isn't really healthy I might consider playing him, but Johnson is getting almost as many targets per game and is due for a good game.

I am a Giants fan so I am biased, but I don't think you bench Eli, especially when we will have to pass because SF is much better in rush D than pass D imo.

Luck is a good play also, I think the Jets will score more than people think which means that Indy will too. So in short both are good plays, Luck might be the better option but Eli is still Eli.

Id go w/ Johnson and Austin because I don't know if Brady Quinn can get Bowe the ball. Isn't his arm strength in question? The texans don't throw often, but this game might be different because of the packers having a legit offense whereas most of the teams the texans have faced weren't very good.

You could go Hartline because he does get a lot of targets, but Finnegan and Jenkins have been doing a great job as of late.

The sad thing is that Miles Austin should be the #1 option in his offense, but Dez is for the dumbest reasons. I still think Austin will get a lot of targets because their OL is so bad they cant run.

Edit: so in short Id pick Andre and Austin

Absolutely not to Titus, he blows. Jordy hasn't been getting his but i have him and I play him because he has the most potential to blow up.

Dallas CBs are pretty good and I don't really like Boldin but he gets the most targets in the passing game, Jordy has gotten 3 less with 36.

This is your decision, Baltimore is home and Flacco is good at home so Boldin is a good option. Jordy will probably draw Johnathan Joseph so I guess Id probably pick Boldin because he'll draw Morris Claiborne

I don't like Doug Martin, so I don't think I would.

yes, I would. Carson Palmer blows and they will likely be passing more

BaLLiN · 10-14-2012, 11:31 AM

Alright I answered you guys, can I get some responses?

I am gunna start murray just because I feel like he is due and Costa is back (good and bad).

I want to know who I should play in regards to my flex (Stephens-Howling, Hawkins, or Leshoure), or if you think one RB will be a better choice than Murray say so

saintsfan912 · 10-14-2012, 11:40 AM

I'd keep your lineup as is in the link.

b316 · 10-14-2012, 11:46 AM

I'm really tempted with Leshoure and running on that wide 9.

Mendy beat on them coming off ACL, but couldn't do much against Tits.

I want to go with Stephens-Howling but I am not sure how they will use him so I don't feel confident playing him. He is talented its just I see them doing a timeshare in the backfield.

I think Murray and Hawkins are my picks. Murray is being picked by all the analysts as is Hawkins. Not saying they are right but i think these two are more likely to get points than being cute with a good matchup and player who just got the start.

On the other hand, Cobb has played well but is the 3rd option whereas Dez is targeted like a #1 receiver.

Good call!

Cigaro · 10-14-2012, 06:35 PM

You know what I thought would be smart? Picking up Alex Smith as my substitute for Brees.

My opponent would rape me regardless, to be honest. RGIII and Shonn Greene both put up over 35, Maclin and Vincent Jackson over 20 each. And Arian Foster hasn't even played yet.

Malaka · 10-14-2012, 06:35 PM

I am down 10 in fantasy, he's got McGahee, and I have got A-Rod and Malcolm Floyd... what are my chances DC brethren...

Bert Macklin · 10-14-2012, 09:36 PM

Was down 21.7 with just Jordy Nelson left and BAM!

You won bro

fenikz · 10-15-2012, 07:15 AM

Ryan Mathews +13.5 vs Peyton Manning & Eric Decker - Non PPR

Who wins?

scottyboy · 10-15-2012, 08:24 AM

I'm hoping Decker and Peyton. Thanks to ******* Jordy exploding, I need 23.5 from Decker and Prater

SuperMcGee · 10-15-2012, 10:11 AM

I was uneasy about drafting Harvin and Welker as my top two receivers. But it was ppr and I am so happy with it. Still would have lost this week if my opponent hadn't benched Jordy, but I'm a happy camper barring Gates going off, tonight.

When do you bench Jordy? Clearly that is a case of over thinking.

ImBrotherCain · 10-15-2012, 10:20 AM

I am up by 41 and the other guy only has Peyton to go so depending on if Peyton goes off I should win.

People were scared of Houston, seems to be a recurring trend in here. He did start 5 good players - Foster, Charles, Wayne, Bryant, and Ridley, who is the one I would have left on the bench. I'll take it, though.

You only have 3 RB? Who is on waivers?
