I'm having a good week even with Brady not being that great.

 

[champcruthik]

Jonathan Dwyer or Wes Welker in my flex? I also have Nate Washington but he's supposedly not going to play and I'm not taking a chance on decker. Mendenhall is supposedly out so I'm thinking Dwyer since he dogged redman last week. Thoughts?

Would have said Wes as a no-brainer. He's a must-start in every league, every format until W1 proves to be a re-occurring anomaly. 5/95 much better but not even Wes' best yet.

 

[mmg]

CJ28 is a ******g bum.

never touching him again in any draft

 

[champcruthik]

Thoughts on Anquan Boldin?

He just cleared waivers, and I wanna pick him up for depth on my bench. Because of autopick, I got screwed at WR.

I only have Welker, Holmes, Robinson (Laurent) with Jon Baldwin on my bench, who'd I dropped for Boldin.

 

Smart to drop Baldwin for Q. I see Boldin regressing but he's a far better and more consistent, dependable WR option than Baldwin. Baldwin is more a deep-league sleeper candidate.

Im hearing all kinds of different reports on Ryan Mathews as far as he is playing and he isnt playing. There's no way I can start him over Alfred Morris or Trent Richardson is there? Trent plays at 1 so I know im not taking him out and sweating the injury report till 4. And I feel like Morris is going to have another good game against the Rams. But if Mathews is starting I might have a hard time keeping him out.

Hope you guys read my earlier posts. Trent was the must-start, I've been saying that all week. Morris second best option but still a sit option for me. Matthews was forcing himself to play. He's not a factor until W3 earliest, more like W4 or W5 to see his best and full production.

Would you start Maclin over decker? Even with the hip pointer and bmore def

Hope you didn't. Injury had me concerned (hip). Even with the TD, I think Decker will post better on Monday night.

 

[timelessflight]

my team beasted today

Eli

Percy

Rice

Sproles


Ridley gave me a good game. Trent went off but I didn't start him

Still have Julio, Pettigrew, and the Falcons kicker left to go. Bout to head to 2-0

 

[champcruthik]

Ryan Williams vs Ne or Ben Tate vs Jax?

Hope you started Tate, brotha. Two TDs.

 

[champcruthik]

Locker against SD
or
Kolb against NE

Would have said neither, but Kolb is having the better week thus far until the conclusion of the TEN/SD game.

 

[champcruthik]

Ugh, Anybody got info on Gates and Djax's situations?

D-Jax had a good week playing through the hammy issue. Hope you started him. Gates was inactive, surprised he didn't play through injury. Hope you checked this morning before the 1 PM kickoffs.

 

[champcruthik]

Santana Moss, Beanie Wells, Justin Blackmon, or Kendall Hunter at my flex?
Yeah my team is that bad.. Fred Jackson getting injured really hurt my team :x

Would have said Hunter or Beanie as the lesser of two evils. Definitely not Blackmon because of Gabbert, and I see Hank playing better than Santana in 2012-2013. Hope you went in that direction even before this post.

 

[diewitsjames]

everyone on my team scored less than 5 pts except for eli manning. fitz, marshall, olgletree (garcon was out), dmc, bradshaw, hernandez. garcon and fred jackson on my bench.

 

[champcruthik]

Info is appreciated

Kinda tempted to start Pitta...Guess I'll be sitting on rosters until game time

Hope you started Pitta over Tonio, man. His production over Dickson is real in Cam's no-huddle, uptempo offense.

 

[champcruthik]

should I start Darious Haywood Bay or Jeremy Maclin?
Darius is playing the Dolphins which looks suspect
and
Jeremy is playing the solid Ravens D

Truthfully I would have said DHB because of Maclin's hip. Hope you started Mac9 though because of the TD.

 

[champcruthik]

That feel when you see Shady score

That feel when you realized he scored on your starting Defense :\

That feeling when you have Shady for fantasy football and also support the Eagles fervently.

 

[champcruthik]

knew i should've picked up Spiller.. dude is gonna score all their tds this year

Him and Stevie. Fact.

 

[champcruthik]

glad i started spiller instead of d. martin....props to Champ for convincing me to start him

No problem, brotha. Glad you did as well. Hope you win this week.

 

[jblackcat13]

Played LaFell at FLEX did me good. Wish I could have put him in WR instead of Fitz so I could've P.Thomas at FLEX. Oh well now to worry about Hernandez being out 6+weeks.

 

[champcruthik]

Trent Richardson scores his first NFL TD

Many more to come. He's going to get a heavier and heavier workload as the season progresses and the summer surgery fades. I can't imagine Shurmur trusting Weeden with the keys to the car. Richardson is a fringe RB1, legitimate RB2. Props to anyone who risked ADP on Richardson and Matthews even after the summer injuries.

 

[champcruthik]

Spiller with 22 points in the first half I knew not to listen to you guys now I have to try and veto my own trade

One week. I love Spiller but am still trusting MJD over him based on body of work and consistency. Look at ADP, MJD was top-7 overall on almost all boards. He got J-Ville's lone TD and they lost by 20.

 

[diewitsjames]

Played LaFell at FLEX did me good. Wish I could have put him in WR instead of Fitz so I could've P.Thomas at FLEX. Oh well now to worry about Hernandez being out 6+weeks.

hernandez confirmed to be out 6 weeks?

 

[nike4kja05]

2nd week in a row I lose somebody. Aaron Hernandez

bout to go 0 -2. My team is underperforming like crazy >:

 

[champcruthik]

Stafford vd 49ers Def or Alex vs Det Def??? I need some help here. Stafford is projected to get 28 but against the 49ers, I dont think so. It hurts cuz im a 49er fan smh

I can't justify starting Alex Smith over Stafford even based on the match-up or Smith's strong performances against NO (playoffs) and GB (W1). Megatron is a threat against anybody in the league regardless of team defense strength.

 

[champcruthik]

Tolberts vulture TD

Could be a factor rest of the way depending on Rivera's preference. Similar to Michael Bush but obviously less effective now that Bush is the starter and just a better overall RB. DeAngelo as the primary, Stewart as the third-down with receptions, and Tolbert with the goal-line touches for short rushing TDs.

 

[champcruthik]

Is Colston playing? No targets so far.

3/49. It's the foot, bro. Jimmy, Sproles, and Lance in favor currently.
