The "Who should I start?" Thread

Who should I start at WR??

-Greg Jennings vs Vikings
-Devery Henderson vs Falcons
-Derek Mason vs Broncos

I usually start Greg Jennings every week. But his performance and yards have gone down every week. He hasn't been without a touchdown the last 4 weeks. The other receiver I'm starting is Hester vs Cleveland. Welker has a bye this week

Thanks, Jon

Hm, kinda tough. I wouldn't play Jennings against the Vikings. Maybe Henderson just because there is always a threat with that offense. I know Mason has been good but I'd try Henderson.

hmm the thing is with me though when i sit jenning he will probably bust out and have a huge game lol. I might start henderson. I did pick up that rb form the jets though, Shonn green or whatever his name is since Washington is out for the year.

or should i pick up Hakeem Nicks and start him instead??? He had a solid week last week getting 14 points.

I just picked him up and am hoping he produces well. My wideouts haven't had any consistency this year.

Last night, both of my QBs had a bye so I dropped Carson Palmer and picked up Brett Favre for this week. That turned out to be a GREAT move

Eli vs SD or Brady vs MIA
Broncos D vs PIT or Saints D vs CAR
McCoy vs phi or Jamal Charles vs JAC or Derrick Mason vs CIN. (two of three)

Eli over Brady... SD defense has been struggling all year. Lights Out just hasn't been the same, and Jamal Williams has been out, among other injuries.


Saints D vs. CAR, simply because the Panthers haven't really been all that spectacular this year.


And thirdly, McCoy and Mason.

See i was thinking McCoy and Mason but Champ on Mason could be bad and Jamal is starting this week (i think) so i was leaning with McCoy and Jamal.

Yeah, those matchups are a tossup. It's ultimately up to you, but at the very least I'm pretty confident about my other two recommendations.

Thanks Marcus you gave me alot of good points for Eli and Saints D. Going to go with both of them i am 8-0 so i feel the need to win agian.

Brady vs Mia - Manning still has that nagging injury and SD has some Ballhawks on D, interceptions could bite Eli and the Giants are struggling big time. I also think Brady and the Pats are at home if I'm not mistaken.

Saints D - The Saints D just won me my last matchup with their performance on Monday. They give up a decent amount of points, but they are turnover machines and the Panthers offense is also a turnover machine, all signs point to the Saints D. That being said their weakness is run defense and the Panthers will try to run all day, but there is a good chance they will fall behind by 10+ and have to throw.

McCoy and Mason - McCoy seems to be getting more action each week with Westbrook uncertain, and the Eagles are red hot. Jamal Charles is reportedly splitting carries in practice with Kolby Smith. Charles also has a knack for fumbles. The chiefs don't score much to start with. Mason is Flacco's favorite reciever lately and is a safe play.

Steve Smith (NYG) vs San Diego or Donald Driver vs Tampa

Steve Smith (NYG) vs San Diego or Donald Driver vs Tampa

Absolutely go with Driver. Jammer and Cromartie are both Pro Bowl caliber corners.

Julius Jones vs Lions or Tomlinson vs. Giants
