I'd go with Green Bay over Buffalo. Rivers is a turnover machine this year.

I'm 8-0 and this week may be my first loss. AP isn't playing and the only other RB's I have are Mendenhall and Ringer. I'm hoping Ringer comes up with some big plays and takes over some of CJ's carries. Mendenhall is playing the Ravens so I'm screwed there.

I have Jonathan Baldwin in the flex with Best out on concussion and bye. =/

I'm starting to regret that trade of Battle and Lloyd for Mendenhall.

Just so you know, I'm totally fine with jinxing you if it means Rivers stops sucking ass for my team.

However, I'm actually on the other side of this problem. I have Rivers, and I just picked up Mark Sanchez off waivers to take his place in my starting lineup. Except for the bye week and his game against Baltimore, Sanchez has outscored Rivers every week this season in this particular league. I'm starting Sanchez because I'm playing that trend and because I like that matchup better than Rivers vs. GB.

Need to make some tough choices this week (AP on a bye), going with Big Ben (hate the matchup but Josh Freeman is my other option). Here's who I've got for 2 receiver spots and the flex:

WR- Roddy White, Nicks, AJ Green, and Manningham
RB - Cedric Benson

Pretty sure I'll hang with White, but the other two spots are up in the air. Nicks' hamstring scares me, Manningham is inconsistent but if Nicks is out, he could see the ball. Who is more likely to have a big game against Tennessee - Green or Benson? Not real big on using both, but it's possible. Fire away.

I don't see how you could leave AJ Green on the bench. He seems like a must start every week. But Tennessee's run defense is 24th in the league. Tough decision, especially with Benson having fresh legs coming off his bye week AND suspension.

And this is why I love FF. I don't think your jinxing me.... I've beaten the best in my league and lost to some of the worst... I'm playing a guy now who is winless... he's 0-8.... i'm sitting at 4-4... I won last week.... so i'm [censored]ed either way I go...

I'm trying to figure out who to put in the flex position.

For RB I start Ray Rice and Michael Turner
at WR I have Wes Welker and Marques Colston

My options that I am considering at flex are

Mike Tolbert (starting) vs Green Bay
Julio Jones (PPR League) vs Indy
Steve Johnson vs NY Jets

I'm leaning towards Tolbert, but with Indy having the worst D, Jones could have a coming out party. Steve Johnson is the most consistent, but he'll have Revis on him.

Green Bay's defense isn't as good as it was last year. I think Tolbert could have a big day. I'm in a similar position where I have Ray Rice and Fred Jackson starting, and then have to choose between Steven Jackson or Tolbert.

Most definitely Steven Jackson.

I have a couple of WR's that are listed as questionable, but both should play. I've got one spot to fill:

Plaxico Burress vs Buffalo
Julio Jones vs Indianapolis



Top projected WR's I could pick up are:

Gaffney
Jonathan Baldwin
Denarius Moore
Doug Baldwin
Jacoby Ford
Early Doucet
Torry Smith
David Nelson


any of those better options than the two I have?
