Fantasy Football Question (need help ASAP)

Steven Jackson vs. Houston, or Rashard Mendenhall vs. Green Bay? Not thrilled with either option, but I've got to pick one.

Need to select two out of Calvin Johnson, Roddy White, Michael Crabtree, or Jason Witten. Bad matchups for White (against Reavis) and Crabtree (against Samuel). I like Johnson, but hate relying on Culpepper. Witten gets some catches, but not the big yards and not in the red zone.

Looking for suggestions, so I can blame somebody else.:biggrin:

Steven Jackson in a walk...Mendenhall couldn't even light up Cleveland, and Pitt will have to throw a lot if Green Bay does probably.

Witten is up against NO, and Austin seems to be catching all the TDs...so I'd steer from him. White is playing with a backup QB too, no? It's tough, but I'd say safest bet is Calvin Johnson, maybe with Crabtree/White as a tie...depends on which matchup you like the best, but if it were me, I might stick Crabtree in there...though White is the safer pick.

Report I heard yesterday was that several Rams players have been sent home this week with the swine flu.

Today it is being reported that Stephen Jackson did not participate in practice because he developed 'flu-like symptoms'.

The report did not say Jackson had swine flu, and has not speculated whether he would play this weekend or not, just that he didn't practice today because of illness.

You best keep a very close eye on Jackson for Sunday.

Your WRs all look like a roll of the dice to me. Grab two and hope for the best.

OK, after getting great survival pool help last week, I'm back for more this week. I took Houston, as suggested, and lived...3 others took Denver and died. That leaves just 3-4 of us in the pool now. I am getting down to the dregs for teams I have left available, but here are some viable choices I still have. Any help will be appreciated...I win a good chunk of coin if I win this pool.

Atlanta (vs. Buffalo)
Green Bay (vs. Seattle)
NY Giants (vs. Carolina)
San Francisco (vs. Detroit)

Also, I haven't really done this at all this year, but perhaps it's time to take a 2 week strategy into consideration, since next week is the final week. Week 17 choices (to perhaps influence the week 16 choice?)

Carolina (home to NO, who could rest starters)
Jacksonville (@Cleveland)
NY Giants (@Minnesota, who may or may not have anything to play for)
NY Jets (Cincinnati)
San Francisco (@St. Louis)
Atlanta (@Tampa Bay)
Green Bay (@Arizona)
Denver (KC)

QB question. For some reason my league plays 2 QBs at once. I'm sitting Peyton this week and I picked up Alex Smith last week to replace him. My other QB is Cutler, who tried really hard to lose my game for me (he had -2.97 and I won by .55). I want to sit his bum ass against Minny....but here's the available "talent" pool:

Jason Campbell vs Dal
Matt Stafford vs SF
Chad Henne vs Hou
Josh Freeman vs NO
Brady Quinn vs The RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRaidahs

So Culter, Manning's 3 snaps, or one of these bums?

Henne put up 300 against NE 2 weeks ago, so he at least has a chance at a good game. I might go with him.
