Thanks a lot Eli 4 lousy points from you My brother picked up Schaub off his waiver wire last week (he's on ESPN; long story about that pick). I recommended starting him the rest of the year.

So it looks like I was kinda lucky yahoo was down earlier. I was leaning towards benching Rivers for Alex Smith. I'm thinking of maybe picking up Colin Kaepernick in a related note.
As for my match up, I'm up 20 with McCoy and 2 defensive players playing now and Brandon Marshall in the late game. My opponent has Issac Redman and 2 defensive guys left. I'm feeling pretty good about my chances, which were increased because he started Percy Harvin.

Still going to be second place, and definitely looking like I'm going to have the most points in the league this season.

I'm up by a little above 35 and the only person my opponent has left is Isaac Redman.
I really like my chances even though Redman will be running on the pathetic Chiefs tomorrow.
10-0 here I come.

I'm still undefeated. Now I face my biggest challenge this week with no AP. With some luck I'll be at 11-0

With some luck I'll be at 11-0 Ironically enough, the week without AP for me is the week that I face the WORST person in the league this year. I mean, WORST. 0-10 and averages about 50 points a game. Of course, I'll get buttf***ed and lose.

Decision:
do I start Andrew Luck against the Patriots or Josh Freeman against the Panthers?
Both are road games against suspect defenses.

I just HAD to not start Danny Woodhead. 2-8 now. Only those two wins keep me from the absolute bottom of the Yahoo! league.

The Colts won't be able to run well and they'll probably be throwing from behind. Also, Luck is legitimately good.

Alright, in one of my leagues I have a couple of conundrums:
1. I have to start 2 of these 3: Willis McGahee (vs. San Diego), Marcel Reece (vs. New Orleans), and Felix Jones (vs. Cleveland).
- I think I am definitely starting Reece. I am leaning toward Jones over McGahee. McGahee is unquestionably the better back, but he is fumbling at an all-time high this season, he is in an passing scheme, and Jones has the better matchup. Of course, this all hinges on DeMarco Murray being out again. Thoughts?
2. Do I start Dwayne Bowe (vs. Cincinnati) or Darrius Heyward-Bey (vs. New Orleans)?
- Darrius has the better match-up, Dwayne is the better receiver. All the projections say to start Dwayne, but I just have a sneaking feeling that if I bench Darrius, as much as Palmer throws the ball, I'll end up regretting it against this Saints D. Thoughts?

Starting Dwayne Bowe would require you to trust Cassel, Quinn and friends. So if you do, start him. I'd start DHB because of the awful defense and Palmer playing pretty well considering he's always playing from behind.

Bowe is also ailing, and may be limited.
Of course... calvin Johnson was "limited" 2 weeks back and had 100 yards and a score. So you never know.

Thoughts? got to go with DHB, saints give up the most vs wr (28pts according to espn)

Yeah, I'd go with DHB for WR and Reece/Jones as RB.
I know that both the two front RB's, including McFadden are still healing up, so it's probably going to be the same as last week. I picked him up because I needed a fill-in for AP this week since he's on bye. Won't matter since I'm playing a scrub team (knock on wood), but I'm trying to keep my 100+ point streak alive. Haven't had a week under 100 so far this season.

DHW because if you're staring Bowe is means having confidence in Brady/Cassell throwing him the ball and I don't.

I'm thinking of picking up Russell Wilson and dropping Colin Kaepernick. The only reason I have Kaepernick is because I have Alex Smith, with the other QB on my team being the erratic Rivers.
Should I do it?
