Burned in Wk1 help with Wk2 starters WHIR

Here's my proposed starting lineup:

QB: Schaub (Redskins)
RB: AP (Dolphins)
RB: F. Gore (NO)
WR: C. Johnson (Eagles)
WR: B. Marshall (Vikings)
Flex(RB/WR): B. Jackson (Bills)
TE: T. Gonzalez (Cards)
K:Crosby
D/ST: N.O.

BN: A. Bradshaw (Colts), Forte (Cowboys), P. Garcon (NYG), Driver (Bills), M. Ryan (Cards)

This is essentially my week one starting lineup and every player on the bench outperformed the starters, a fluke week I suppose, but I really need a win this week as our 8 man money league is very competitive.

So the definite starts are Schaub, AP, Marshall beyond that I really like B Jackson's matchup but I am concerned that Bradshaw against the Indy D might be a better play than Gore vs Arizona even though Gore is a stud and the go to guy in SF. With S Hill throwing to C Johnson I also wonder if Driver vs the Bills might not be a better play there. D is set, as my other D is SF, not a risk I am willing to take. Any thoughts are appreciated.

I think I stay with Johnson even though Hill is in at QB. They are going to be playing from behind and I think Philly focuses on the run and forces Hill to beat them. I think Johnson picks up some decent stats due to garbage time and Hill doesn't really have options. I think GB takes the early lead on BUF and hands the ball off to Jackson to see what he is made of against a weak BUF run-D. Good Luck.

I agree, stay with your current starters. Bradshaw and Driver are viable....I do think Bradshaw will have a decent game, but if the GMen fall behind, they may turn to the air more frequently...more risk. And you need to start Megatron no matter who is under centre...he still caught a TD from Hill last week...yes, i dont care what the stats say, that was as TD. He will catch a lot of garbage yardage....

Thanks for the thought on mine! Good luck!

I think you should start Gore and Megatron despite the match ups; just too much upside. Then it comes to down the flex between Jackson and Bradshaw. I think any way you slice it; both are a good start. I personally would like Bradshaw; after seeing what the Texans did to that Indy defense; I think Bradshaw will have a good game. Jackson could as well; but I like Bradshaw by a few rankings higher this week. Either way, I don't think regret would enter the picture if you started one over the other in the flex. But I'd go with your current roster; subbing Bradshaw for Jackson. Good luck!

AP and Gore are no-brainers. As are Megatron and Marshall (start the studs - don't overthink Megatron). The flex is a toughie, and I'm not sure how much I have to add since I have the same issue with my other leagues. I think you're right for letting Forte ride pine this week, but Bradshaw vs BJax is a toss-up for me.

Gotta start Gore, he's an elite RB (playing NO not AZ, it's Monday night game)

Gotta start Johnson, he's an elite WR

Only real question IMO is Bradshaw vs. Jackson.

I think I'd role w/ Jackson simply because he's at home & Bradshaw is going to Indy - IMO can't really go wrong w/ either.

Nice lineup. I like Bradshaw against Indy's weak run-D. I'd leave the WRs alone and bench Jackson for Bradshaw.
