Not too good of options... how'd I make the playoffs..

Postby Natedogg888 » Sat Dec 19, 2009 3:29 pm

I've got to pick 2 of 3 RB's and 2 of 3 WR's/TE:
A Rodgers or E Manning (Just in case anyone thinks Eli is a better option)

Pick 2:
B. Jacobs @ WAS
R Grant @ PIT
P Thomas vs DAL

Pick 2:
M Crabtree @ PHI
P. Harvin @ CAR
L Evans vs NE
T Gonzalez @ NYJ
D Dowe vs CLE

Sure are a lot of @'s= No bueno

geesh, lol

Id have to go with Jacobs/Grant because of their roles, certainly not for their matchups haha...


The wr is tougher. Im going to assume sf will have to throw to have any chance. And philly does give up some passing tds, but a lot of those are to tight ends. However crabtree has the ability to make plays, and they'll need em to win. Sounds like some crappy weather in store, the game got moved from 1 to 4:15 due to some storm.

Harvin i guess practiced but i dunno bout him. Seems like minnesota finally doing what was speculated in the beginning of the season and running the ball to help preserve favre for playoffs. With carolinas well below average statistically rush def, and their well above average passing defense, i would assume they will try to win the game on the ground. Thats not to say harvin couldnt bust a big if he DOES play, but theres no gurantee.

Evans, i dunno bout that game, even if it was good weather i still cant trust him, some good weeks but for the most part crap. Definitely a no here.

Bowe is back...fresh...has a good matchup. However again his success will depend on cassel. Id guess he will have a descent game tho, i mean even stafford threw 5 tds on cleveland (tho they did just beat pitts, but pitts been on a shnide for weeks, and cleveland/pitts hate each other).

Gonazalez, mixed opinions ive seen on him. Sure he is a great TE, and with revis on roddy, there isnt much left besides him and jenkins. Good chance he will have a descent day based on that, however....the jets give up the 2nd LEAST points to TE in the whole nfl. So that can be a lil daunting. Though who they played has some influence, however by this time in the season, there are a lot of games to take this # from. Meaning they're pretty good with handling TEs. Some obv may not have been as dynamic as Gonzo.

So i would have to go with crabtree based on they need em, and how good he looked last week, tho this is not nearly as good of a matchup on paper as the arizona game...and bowe on matchup.

If ur gut says gonzalez, go with it i guess. And if harvin is 100% and u wanna risk it, maaaaybe him assuming rice will be gettin covered heavy im sure.
