    I like Washington but they've been iffy at times. Minnesota would likely be my pick if everyone stays where they are.

    Not much of a dilemma (A. I can't lose, B. I've already clinched) but just wondering what 2 RB's you guys think I should start:

    LT vs Indy
    Slaton vs. Cleveland
    DeAngelo Williams vs Atlanta
    Matt Forte vs St. Louis

    Wow, so you mean there was even more of those posts that we didn't know of? Amazing what being able to sweep things under the rug can do. :wink2:

    Gore and Lynch.

    LT (Sanders is questionable, I think he'll be limited at best) and Forte.

    I thought so too though DeAngelo's been going nuts these days and Slaton himself has an incredible matchup. I wish I could start all of them.

    Alright I need to choose 1 WR to fill the slot...Burress is questionable and a gametime decision so he is on my bench to play it safe for now...


    Driver vs. Saints
    Avery vs. Bears
    Berrian vs. Jags
    (Q)Burress vs. Cards

    I'd go Driver or Berrian. Driver might be a little more dependable, but Berrian has hit a lot of homers.

    I'm going with Ward, even thoug Jacobs might play I am thinking he might be limited.

    I didn't start Turner in one league but am I going to be mad at going 91-51 vs. 120-51. Probably not. :tongue2:

    Alright, folks. I clinched the playoffs and I need to win this week for a possible bye. Please give me your advice.
    I need to start two RB and two WR:

    Brandon Jacobs vs Washington
    Michael Turner vs San Diego
    Thomas Jones vs Denver

    Hines Ward vs New England
    Vincent Jackson vs Atlanta
    Lance Moore vs Tampa Bay

    I'm leaning towards Turner/Jones and Jackson/Moore.
    Opinions?
    Thanks, again! :wink2:

    Question:

    It looks like the Cardinals are the only team that has really secured their playoff spot and may be resting their starters during playoff weeks. Which WR should I pick up if they decide to sit Fitzgerald. Breaston is long gone. Irwin maybe?

    Doubt they rest anyone, they are still hunting for a round 1 bye.

    I have an excellent shot at a 1st round bye and winning highest scoring team of the year (25 bucks) this weekend so I need to win both of my games.

    I have too many options at RB and it only gets worse if Parker & other NO RBs are out. Its total combined yards rush/rec with PPR so catches matter.

    I think I have to go with Thomas Jones vs Broncos and Michael Turner @ SD.
    Grant @ Panthers, Dunn vs Saints, Moore @ Pats, P Thomas @ Buccs are tempting.

    Best thing about having all these guys is they are not on other teams.

    @ WR I'm a little shakey with Boldin being my only must start guy. Colston and Evans are penciled in with Breaston @ Eagles, Driver vs Panthers and Gates vs Falcons on the bench. I'm going to try and pick up Dustin Keller and if I do will likely sit Colston for him.

    lol, I'm so good, I throw a matchup and still win. Amazing what Arizona's negative points can do. Total embarrassment. :lol:

    Still, I'm hoping to lose a few more games so I can get a good series in the playoffs and hit the presumptive winner of the other in the championship round when he has bad matchups.

    Never bench Turner from this point out. Falcs are on the cusp of a playoffs berth and they'll lean on their workhorse. Jones could go wild against Denver. Keep it Turner/Jones unless Jacobs is good to go.

    I would consider Ward against NE rather than Moore. Moore's going up against a tough pass D in Tampa with top pass rushers and corners. NE's secondary is soft as butter. Even our hardly special WR's did well against them. Add that to the fact that Ward's been solid against NE when they actually had very good CB's and rushers.

    What about the Philly D vs Arizona
    or
    Miami D vs St. Louis.

    Philly has been solid for me all year but they have a tough match up this week.
    Do I assume that the 'Fins have an easier game?
