Scooby's Hubby Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I am gonna start Julius over Ray Rice this week and am probably aiming too high. Everyone in the know quotes how well Julius is at home. I started him while Hasselbeck was healthy but have stated previously on the huddle that it was only a matter of time before Hasselbeck went down. Now that Hass is back, I am counting on those home #s for Julius. Hopefully, I will once again look like a genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyBalata Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I'm going with Jones using the same philosophy, except I am benching TO for Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-A-G-L-E-S BABY! Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I am gonna start Julius over Ray Rice this week and am probably aiming too high. Everyone in the know quotes how well Julius is at home. I started him while Hasselbeck was healthy but have stated previously on the huddle that it was only a matter of time before Hasselbeck went down. Now that Hass is back, I am counting on those home #s for Julius. Hopefully, I will once again look like a genius. I benched him even with hasselback back, ray rice just needs willis to stop volturing his tds or break his leg, when this happens he is gonna be a stud especially with cam camerons history and flaccos development. Besides I could have ran for julius' totals against the rams home or not. Jak will stuff him and seattles d can't stop my grandmother so ur not gonna look like a genuis today.

Scooby's Hubby Posted October 11, 2009 Author Share Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) I'm starting Rice over Jones so one of us is gonna be SOL. Hopefully it's you. I am thinking that because it is such a hard decision that they both may score near the same. Good luck!

griff321 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I'm really getting sick of some of these fantasy sites. Like you said, "everyone in the know quotes JJ plays good at home." So, then why did he not? A few reasons but they were glaringly obvious, which is why JJ was on my bench in every league I had him. #1.) Only one projected starter on the offensive line started. They got guys off the street and practice squad. The only way Jones sees room is if they he got the ball in the flats but I felt with the condition of the line they'd leave him in to block and let their recievers go to work because of point number two. Also, he's only getting 2.4 catches per game, so it's not like the Seahawks are making getting the ball to RBs in short passes a major part of their game plans and also because of my second point, it would stay that way. #2.) The Jags secondary is retardedly bad, other teams demonstrated that the blueprint for beating them goes through the air. I felt this played to the Seahawks strengths, and looking at the first half when it was still a game, the Seahawks played to that strength and threw a lot more then they ran. So why in the hell did almost every single site try to shove "good at home, bad on the road" sound clips at us when a half retarded joe with little time to spend on football like me can see the writing on the wall? Why are you not shoving down the condition of that line down our throats and how it's typical for a makeshift/young line to have problems in hostile environments and that their play on the road should have us running in fear because it's showing just how unreliable that crew will be week to week until a few injured players return? Last week it was "Grant has historically seen a little room against the Vikings." Well historically the Packers O line has never been in worse shape. These guys are collumnists that play fantasy football and then they spout historical trends that distract from the real major issues affecting the game and have zero bearing over anything. Just look at Berry, the majority of his bench/start(love/hate) article consisted of his bad experience with women. It's like, "mmmk, Ann Landers, what about why I should play x over y." That's why I came to The Huddle, because i felt there is a staff that loves football and will give me the info I need to make solid judgements. Yet in the projections and start/bench list it's the same old espn sound clip. I felt Dorey had it spot on in the projections except I saw the TD he has for JJ going to Burleson or Carlson. Really how he even saw that line being able to get JJ a TD with Hass only throwing one against the worst secondary in the league because the line is that bad is beyond me. Then you got J2V actually jumping behind the same crap and trying to feed it to us once again in start/bench.. S2.. with that line... REALLY!? C'mon big john you can do better then this. Sorry about the QQ fest but all the advocates for playing JJ this week fed us fluff and the majority ate it. Look at all the WDIS posts when you guys have two sets of rankings. I think that's because the logic you're giving us to illustrate your projections just doesn't hold water in a lot of cases. We know that what happened in a game last year or two years ago between two teams means NOTHING this year, so why give us that line? Please just give us the stats and the info we need and keep all of the meaningless corperate site crap that muddies the discussion out of it.
