Fantasy Football 2011: Jumping the Gun

romo @ phi or fitz vs wash

last time I ninja'd in fitz 5 minutes before kickoff and lost the game because of it -.-;

but this matchup is really bad for romo I think, especially after bye for the eagles. halp

[Bregor]

Fitz, Deadskins are turrbull

[Demosthenes11]

I hate that he just signed an epic contract because recent history has shown us they lay an egg right after...

fuck I hate qb decisions. wr decisions? oh well, lost out on 7 points. qb decisions? whoops lost 25 points

It technically is a bad matchup for Romo but that game has serious shootout potential. Fitz has been bad 3 weeks in a row.

Big Ben v NE or Newton v MIN? Shouldn't even be a question, right?

[kisada]

shouldnt, no lol

[Moss]

Newton is a must start.

[Tyche]

The guy I'm playing in BG money has all his primary backs on bye. He was starting Roy Helu and Daniel Thomas. Thomas went classified to "OUT", so I went and picked up Bush to cockblock. That make me a bad person?

[Chun Liroy]

implying that bush would net more than 0 points.

Not like this is a new thing for you

[Tyche]

He was at around 8 points a game the last 3 games, and that was with Thomas.

beat me to it

[Cail]

sounds like Beanie Wells is gonna play, but against BAL defense, so take it as you will

[Cail]

Kills me to ask this, cuz unlike a lot of people here, I love him, but Rivers or Dalton?....

No. That's good strategy.

You would be crazy to start Dalton over Rivers.

River has had a bad year by his standards and still has more points than Dalton.

hmm i really wanna gamble on demaryius thomas. most physically beast receiver on denver roster and regardless of the qb's inaccuracy, he was tebow's clear favorite last game. kinda makes me think tebow might rely on him as his security blanket for rest of season the way he did with lloyd toward the end of last (250 yards and 2 td's in final 3 games).

got david nelson/austin miles/antonio brown as starters this week and eric decker on bench. rest of bench is a buncha rb's whom i don't think i can drop (felix/greene/starks/helu).

if you had to drop one, who would it be? and would you?

[Cail]

i already dropped decker in a 12 team 2wr (and w/r flex) league and no one has touched him. Decker has dropped off even before Tebow

[Moss]

So none of the RBs you mentioned are your starters? If that is the case I wouldn't fault you for dropping Starks/Greene/Helu.

Otherwise, I would wait and see what happens with the Skins this week. If Torain gets all of the carries and plays well, drop Helu.

I also don't see any problems with dropping Nelson for Thomas.

Makes sense in 12-team but in deeper leagues I wouldn't give up on him just yet.
