The Cowboys defense appears to be much improved, though. The Giants usually put up close to 30 on us as well but the Cowboys held them in check most of the night.
True, but Philly's secondary is garbage too. It's a tough call. I'd probably go for Romo just so if he has a great game I'll be able to enjoy it more. That's why I usually don't draft Cowboys

Yeah, my CJ Anderson in rd 1 pick is looking great right about now. Hoping Chris Ivory bails me out

Right there with you. Kept him over Brady (draft was before the Brady decision) in a keeper league.

Have a flex position to fill and choices are: Legarrette Blount, Dion Lewis, or Markus Wheaton. Its a PPR league.


Hate having to guess which NE RB is going to get the work but im kind of stuck. Thankfully it will get better next week when Bell comes off suspension.

What are your thoughts on which WR has the better match up?

John Brown, Arizona vs Chicago
Jarvis Landry, Miami vs Jax

I'm leaning Brown right now.

Close call, Landry should see more targets but Brown has better big play potential. I'd probably go with Landry as the safer play

I would go with Landry, too. Because they are playing the Jags if nothing else.

Options for 2nd starting QB:

Derek Carr vs Browns or Kaep vs Cards

Leaning towards Carr, but not real sure what I should do.

I'd go Carr as well.

I don't trust Kaepernick going against that Cardinals' secondary.

Lol. NE is always like that with their RBs. Dion Lewis seems to be the only safe bet if you are in a PPR league.

Now watch next week Bolden or Cadet get the most touches. I should know better than to draft any NE rb, I'm seeing what I can get for him coming off a 3td day so I don't have to deal with the headache

My apologies to [MENTION=28]Rev[/MENTION] for the complete annihilation of his team this past weekend. After spotting the league 2 games up on me, it's time to make my move.

Lol. That was bad. All your guys decided to go off at the same time. Just nothing you can do about that.

Would've been even better if LaGarette Blount's 27 points weren't sitting on my bench. :lol

Here is one for discussion:

WR and Flex position open. Choices are Willie Snead, Hankerson, and Blount.

Its a PPR league so Snead is getting decent points with added playing time. Hankerson had a big game last week but can he do it again? Again PPR helps here regardless. Blount had a huge game the last time and should have goal line opportunities against a bad defense??

I go with Hankerson and Blount. Hankerson has been targeted quite a bit all season.

Someone in my main league dropped Lamar Miller at the bye. I had been sitting on the #1 waiver priority since early in the season and jumped on Miller. I plugged him into my lineup immediately and have been smiling like hell the past two weeks.

Someone just offered me Mark Ingram and Antonio Gates for Miller. I don't want Gates as he is likely to miss multiple weeks with a sprained MCL (and is always a health risk anyway). Plus, I have Eifert, who is an every week start and is now past his bye.

So it comes down to who you like better rest of season, Miller or Ingram. One factor is that MIA is past their bye while NO has not yet had theirs. NO does appear to have an easier overall schedule though. It is a 1.0 PPR league. Make the move to get Ingram or stick with Miller?

I like Miller...Payton gets a little cute with his RB carries and I think Campbell is legitimately trying to win games so he can keep the job...so playing Miller makes sense as opposed to developing another back.

Thanks. I am leaning towards turning it down for a few reasons, one being the usage that you mentioned. Hadn't really considered the Campbell angle (outside of the fact that he actually uses him while Philbin foolishly did not) but you have a point.
