IMO, Willie is a start every week. He may not be Alexander, or LT, but keep him in as long as he's healthy.

Willie is awesome but thewy never let him score so thats why im questioning him.

Willie is good, but Gore had a great start, and has a good matchup against the Rams this weekend.
And I'd go with Rod Smith
Also, drop Matt Bryant and pick up another kicker. I know he's the Bucs kicker, but he's not a good fantasy kicker.

Yeah.. watch the Parker start. Steelers just signed Davenport, and he could be the new BUS and take production away from Parker.
I would ride Gore as long as you can.

Gore at RB....

As much as you want to start Parker, he's going to be a decoy for play action t his week. The Steelers should have a tough time on the ground with the FL heat and the Jags interior DL.
I'de go with Gore at RB.
For WR, for some reason I like the Eagles this week. Stalworth is going to be covered because the Giants will be fighting for their season this week. R. Brown is going to be covered either by Corey Webster or R.W. McQuarters.. lol.
Then again.. Rod Smith is going up against the KC D. It's a toss up really, they will both produce about the same, just remember that the Eagles feature the pass a lot more in their scheme.

You're pretty deep at RB and kind of thin at WR. Maybe you should trade one of your starting RBs for a good WR you can start most weeks.

Go with Gore. I don't know if you meant Mark Clayton or Mike Clayton (you mentioned both). Wouldn't go with either one. If you meant Mark, even though Ravens will stomp the Raiders, McNair spread it around and Mark is not yet a major go to guy. If you meant Mike, not until the Bucs figure it out and they won't vs. Atl. R. Brown is does not factor in to Philly's offense, yet, and may never unless someon gets hurt. Rod Smith is probably your safest bet of the WR choices.

Start Parker, bench Gore.
Gore is going to hit the wall this Sunday vs the Eagles. Remember how LT got shut down last year? Gore may have been good early on, but he had pretty good matchups.
I wouln't expect a lot out of Gore again this week.
Parker, on the other hand, is playing against an improved Cincy D. Parker struggled against JAX, every RB will. He, along with the Steelers, should bounce back from their MNF loss. Most teams who lose on MNF, come back to win their next game. I'm not saying the Steelers are going to win, but Parker should have a decent game.

Week 3,
Starters, no flex position
QB: M. Hassleback
RB: S. Jackson
RB: B. Westbrook
WR: D. Driver
WR: L. Coles
WR: Mike Clayton
TE: L.J. Smith
TE: R. McMichael
K: J. Wilkins
D/ST: MIA
HC: Lovie Smith
Bench
QB: C. Pennington, Brad Johnson
RB: Jamal Lewis, Stephen Davis
WR: Troy Brown (R. Moss-bye)
TE: G. Wrighster
K: J. Elam
D/ST: MINN
HC: Brad Childress
Hassleback should finally rebound and have a nice game against the Giants, especially seeing as how Branch is active and the Giants have had a hard time against the pass. Pennington plays the Bills, so his #'s are unpredictable. His 300 yards and 1 TD could come with 1 or 2 INT's.
The real question is between Jamal Lewis and Brian Westbrook. Both are dinged, Lewis is P and Westbrook is Q. I think Westbrook will get more touches but Lewis could get a TD..

(R. Moss-bye)
What happened to Moss? Did you trade him? Because while he's not having a good start, he's too good to just drop. At worst, trade him to somebody who'll think he'll bounce back, you could get a decent player from somebody.
PirateAttack
09-24-2006, 02:05 AM
What I meant was that Moss is on his bye week. The Raiders' bye week is week 3.
I've thought about trading Moss, but at this point his stock is so low that it would hardly be worth it. I'm going to hold on to him for at least a few more weeks before I make my decision on trying to trade him or keeping him.

Well, I was right about Parker. It's too bad McMichael didn't do much today though.

I'm glad I chose to start Hasselbeck. 5 Touchdowns, 3 Ints, 275 yards = 20 points in my league. :D

Should've played in our league, 6pts per TD, -3 per INT and 1 point per 25 yards passing, 1 point per 10yards rushing.

I know, I have Hassleback and I almost started Chad Pennington. Pennington still did well, but not 5 TD's well, lol.

I would start Colston and sit R. Brown. Gotta stick with the hot Chargers defense... IMHO.

Chargers D vs BAL is a gamble. The Chargers D might play good or it might look pretty average.
Vince Young, a Rookie, is making his debut this week vs Dallas. This Dallas D has only gotten better over the past couple years and will make it tough for a lot of teams to be effective.
I'de start the Dallas D.
Lastly, if your TE/3rd WR spot is a flex, I'de start Colston instead of McMichael.

Ok, I flip. I agree that while the Chargers D is better, they may allow more points to the Ravens than the Cowboys to the Titans...

This is the second time I've asked this, but is your TE a flex position with WR? Also, if you put what teams your guys are playing, it would save me the time of having to look it up myself. It's obvious which team each person is playing is part of the matchup.
Pretty easy decisions this week, you will have that with a 16 person roster. I, on the other hand, have a HUGE roster in one league with 12. It can get difficult at times deciding who to start.
Starters: (no flex positions)
QB: Pennington v JAX
RB: Steven "Action" Jackson v GB
RB: Brian "Game Time Decision" Westbrook v DAL
WR: Laveranues Coles v JAX
WR: Donald Driver v STL
WR: Randy "I'm not concerned about football right now" Moss v SF
TE: LJ Smith v DAL
TE: Bo Scaife v IND
K: Jeff Wilkins v GB
D: MINN D v DET
HC: Lovie Smith v BUF
Bench:
QB: Brad Johnson v DET, Hasselbeck on bye
RB: Corey Dillon v MIA, Buckhalter v DAL, Steven Davis v GB
WR: Joe Horn v TAM, Greg Lewis v DAL, Mike Clayton v NO, Troy Brown and Chad Jackson v MIA
TE: Ernie Conwell v TB, Ben Utecht v TEN
K: Jason Elam v BAL
D: MIA D v NE
HC: Eric Mangini v JAX
Pennington over Johnson? Coles and Driver are both Questionable, Greg Lewis is healthy and should get the ball (Stallworth Doubtful, Reggie Brown Questionable), is Westbrook even going to play!? Corey Dillon might score a TD..
There's a lot of talk of starting Johnson over Pennington. I might be bold and start Greg Lewis over Coles or Driver.
