Start/Sit Week 1- (WHIR- Always!)

[bwind22]

I am in a scoring only league. Yards, turnovers, receptions, etc... are all meaningless. The only way I get points is when one of my guys finds the endzone (or kicks a FG or XP.) So help me set my lineup. Which players are most likely to hit paydirt in week 1?



Start 1 QB (3pts for TD pass, 6 for TD run)
*Palmer - Cin vs. Denver
Schaub - Hou vs. New York Jets

I'm leaning towards Palmer until I see how Schaub does on his ankle.

Start 2 RB (6 pts for TD run)
*A. Peterson - Min @ Clev
Addai - Ind vs. Jax
L. Johnson - KC @ Balt
Hightower - Ariz vs. SF

Well, Peterson is a no-brainer, but which of the other 3 is most likely to score this week. Just based on the defenses they are facing, it looks like Hightower has the best matchup, but is Wells going to vulture TDs from him on the goal line?

Start 3 WR (6 pts for TD rec)
*A. Johnson - Hou vs. NYJ
*Jennings - GB vs. Chi
Holmes - Pitt vs. Tenn
D. Jackson - Phil @ Caro
Cotchery - NYJ @ Hou

Andre Johnson & Jennings are automatic starts. My only real question here is which of the remaining 3 is most likely to score this week.

Start 1 K (3 pts for FG, 1 pt for XP)
*New Orleans vs. Det
Houston vs. NYJ

I'm leaning strongly towards NO here. I just expect them to put up more points.

Start 1 DEF (2 pts for Safety, 6 pts for TD)
*San Diego @ Oak
Houston vs. NYJ

I'm leaning towards SD here. They are the better defense against a weaker team, plus they play on Monday night and I like having players in the last games because I know what I need out of them.





Like I said in the title, I will be happy to help in return. Just leave a link and I will answer your query as quickly as possible. Thanks in advance for any help I get.

[tobias875]

QB: Palmer
RB: AP, Addai
WR: Johnson, Jennings, Jackson
K: Houston (Houston was one of the worst teams in the league in the red zone, i think they'll kick more FGs than NO this week)
DEF:SD
