Johnson or Nicks for WK 2?

Postby Bigpop » Tue Sep 14, 2010 10:39 am

Hey all. I lost this week in a close game, simply because I started Calvin Johnson and sat Hakeem Nicks. My other WR is Steve Smith (Car.). With Smith playing TB, I expect he will have another productive day. So my dilemma is now Johnson, who has lost his QB or Nicks who may very well be Manning's new favorite number 1 receiver who has a break out year.

With Stafford out, it looks like Hill is gonna just throw the ball to Calvin, but I am concerned about him being doubled and thus much less effective. Which means my biggest (or most obvious) replacement is Nicks. I'm struggling with not making a silly move because of one bad week but also trying to make sensible moves to improve my team and sometimes the "big name" guys need to sit.

Opinions/ideas welcome. Thanks ahead of time!

Tough one...as a Giants fan I believe that Smith and Nicks are gonna alternate big games. As an owner of Calvin Johnson I can't see myself benching him this early. I know that doesn't help you at all :-b just my .02 worth. I'm kinda in the same boat with Rice in that it's tough to bench your "big names" but sometimes it does need to be done.
