aww crap.. I need a lotta help with lineup

[SheLovesFootball]

I bolded my starters that I have penciled in... I just can seem to decide... need 2 RBs, 3 WRs..

Thanks for the help!


Romo @ GB
Ryan @ CAR

Need a 2nd RB to start with CJ...
Barber @ GB <---Cant gauge what he will do...
Benson @ PIT <---Benson is a stud but can he get going vs Pit..
CJ vs BUF
Mendenhall vs CIN <--- making a real impact.. Cincy is #2 in run defense... can he produce?

Burleson @ AZ <-- why did he open his mouth.. AZ will focus on him now.. start him?
Floyd vs PHI
Harvin vs DET
Megatron @ MIN <-- makes me nervous...
Moss @ IND

Celek @ SD <-- an every week play...
Shockey @ STL <--- can STL stop anyone? Brees spreads it out so much I cant determine if he is worth starting...

Bengals @ PIT
NYJ vs JAC

Romo @ GB totally agree
Ryan @ CAR

Need a 2nd RB to start with CJ...
Barber @ GB <--- other options better
Benson @ PIT <--- Mendy is tempting but I think Benson is the play. Looking at game logs Benson is pretty matchup immune. He has hung four 100+ yard games on opponents, three of which were vs tough defenses, Bal (twice), and at Green Bay (currently 3rd ranked defense vs. FF RBs). He also had 76 yards and a TD vs PIT last time they faced each other. So though he was under a buck for the day, he still had a 4.75 net ypc average.

CJ vs BUF

Mendenhall vs CIN <--- Has only run over one top defense (DEN last week). Other than that he had 100+ on SD. But had weak yardage games vs poor teams like CLE, and DET, as well as laying an egg vs MIN. He could have a better day than Benson, but Benson has the more proven track record here.

WRs look good to me. I haven't been following CJ's recovery status, and I try to withhold advice unless I feel certain about it. But the kneejerk reaction is to always start CJ over Burleson if healthy. That's why you drafted him so high.

Celek @ SD <-- an every week play...
Shockey @ STL <--- can STL stop anyone? Brees spreads it out so much I cant determine if he is worth starting...
I think Shockey is a great play as well. He always gets his targets and is a big red-zone threat. NO will see plenty of end-zone this week. Not sure if I like him more than Celek or not, but StL is 6ths worst vs Fantasy TEs, and SD is 11th worst. So both are good matchups. It's close enough that I would stick with your gut. You watch them play and so are dialed in to how they perform.

Bengals @ PIT
NYJ vs JAC[/quote] Yeah. I actually think CIn can have a decent day, but the PIT offense hasn't really laid any turds the way JAC has.

I think you have it right with what you have penciled in. Add Benson to the mix as your #2 RB. I like how CIN has focused more on winning games by grinding out the clock and running the ball rather then relying on Palmer and 85 to get it all done. Mendenhall has a tough match-up and I have to keep the faith in a guy named Megatron. He is the better WR with more potential.

I'd go with what you have, but I'd start Mendenhal over Benson. I don't care what Benson's done in the past few weeks. He ain't gettin 30+ carries this week, cuz Pitt is gonna be ahead. I don't see Benson getting more than 65 yards this week. I think Mendenhal gets at least 80 and maybe a TD.
