Boys and girls, I'm back by popular demand. At least that's what I tell myself. :D

 

You know the drill. Ask your questions, please post any and all pertinent information I may need to help make my decision easier, like scoring type, matchups, roster requirements etc.

 

PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO PICK YOUR ENTIRE LINEUP!!!!

 

Fire away. B)

 

Oh, and sorry that I didn't get to a lot of questions last week, I had a busy work week and just couldn't find the time. I'm off on Friday this week, but between this afternoon and tomorrow I should be able to get to a lot of your questions. :D

Hey Hough One, hope this isn't asking too much.

 

 

I start 2 RBs, 2 WRs, and 1 RB/WR Flex

 

Here's what I got

 

RB: (Huddle stat prediction follows)

Dom Davis @ Jax - 90,0

Edge vs SD - 90,1

Portis @ Dallas - 90,1

K Jones vs Chi - 130,1

McDeuce vs Atlanta - 110,1

 

WR:

Moss vs GB - 120,2

Burleson vs GB - 100,1

Harrison vs SD - 100,1

Kennison vs Oak- 130,2

 

Rushing and Receiving yards have been combined in the yards total above.

 

I have Trent Green starting as a QB so starting Kennison is almost a lock.

So is Moss

 

Here's what I am leaning towards:

 

RB

K.Jones

Portis

 

WR:

Moss

Kennison

 

Flex:

Harrison

 

I am torn beween starting Harrison at flex or starting Edge (a stud), McDeuce (Atl has clinched and resting players), or Burleson (Minny will be able to score on GB's 2ndary)

 

Yardage is the same for WR/RB and so is TD pts.

The rest of my team is in my sig.

 

 

Please let me know what you think.

Hugh,

 

Who would you start for your 2nd RB if your choices were between Deuce M and Tiki for this week? I think i am leaning towards Tiki as my 2nd starter

 

I am already starting James as the first RB.

 

Also i need to PU a D this week since i really dont want to use indy and i am leaning towards Carolina but the choices are:

 

Carolina @ Tampa

Cincinnati VS NYG

Washington @ Dallas

Jacksonville VS Houston

 

Thanks a bunch

Hey Hugh,

 

Hope the Holidays are good. Two questions.

 

WR: Start 3

 

RMoss - starting

Burelson vs GB - another big game?

Clayton vs Car - Last week was not so good.

RWilliams vs Chi - Finally, a good week. A little banged up. Another good week?

 

Defense:

 

Wash @ Dal

Miami vs Cleveland - too good to be true?

Chi @ Det

 

Thanks for all the input this year. :D

Hey Hugh, who would you start this week at qb. My choices are Greise vs. Carolina or Delhomme vs. Tampa. Our scoring is 6 points for every passing or rushing td, 1/2 point for every completion and 1 point for every 25 yards passing. Thanks for the help.

Well, I'm gonna have to disagree with you. I bench Kennison in favor of Harrison, and then at the flex I plug in McAllister. Sorry, I'm just not a Kennison fan, and with Mannings record waiting in the wings, starting Indy WR's is a good thing. I would also start Edge over Portis.

Hi Hugh,

 

I'm in the finals and need to decide on a defense.

 

Choices are:

 

ATL v. NO or

CIN v. NYG?

 

10 Points for a shutout. No other score based points (so once the offense scores, it doesn't matter how many points they put up.) Then pretty standard defensive scoring, DTD's (worth more points than offensive td's), sacks, fbr, int etc.

 

I've got the rest of my lineup just about set (see below if you're interested), but the defense could make a difference. What do you think?

 

Thanks and Happy Holidays.

 

Volek

DDavis

Pittman

R.Moss

Kennison

B.Williams or K.Dilger

J.Feely

I would start McAllister. Tiki has faded somewhat, and I just think McAllister is a better option.

 

Defense is a tough call. Caroloina has been HOT, but I think I'd give the nod to Washington.

I've started NE D every week this season (exluding bye week). They have provided me with a lot of points. Our D"s get points based on the amount of yardage given up. Am I crazy for thinking about starting Miami D this week at home vs the Browns or should I stick with NE D @ Jets? I can't decided and I am in my Superbowl!

Happy Holidays to you as well. :D

 

Man, I would hate to start 2 WR's on the same offense, but in your case I think you have to. Williams had a good week, finally, but he's really playing in pain and Chicago's secondary is better than the Vikes who he played last week. Clayton is solid and consistent, I wouldn't bench him. The Vikes play Green Bay. In Minnesota. The Vikes play well at home, and Green Bay has no secondary. I think playing Moss and Burleson this week is a great move.

 

Cleveland scored 7 points in 2 weeks. 7 points total. Start Miami.

 

Good luck. B)

Hey Hugh,

 

I want to start by thanking you, with your help I am in the championship game. I assume others appreciate your analysis and advice as much as I do. :D:DB)

 

Scoring is standard performance, 6-pts all TD's, with 1-pt per reception.

 

QB-Griese vs. Carolina or Brooks vs. Atlanta--I am leaning Griese since Atlanta has nothing to play for and I expect it to be low scoring.

 

RB-(pick 2)-D Davis @ Jags, Edge vs. SD, Pittman vs. Car, and JJ vs. Was--I am not considering JJ, but thought I would throw him out there... I am leaning Edge and Pittman since DD is going against a very tough Jags D (even though he is almost all of the Texans offense)

 

Thanks Hugh, and hoping you and yours have a safe and Happy Holiday season.

Hugh, thanks for all your advice in past weeks... once again I seek your guruish knowledge. :D

 

This week I'll be starting these guys for sure:

 

QB - Culpepper

RB - R. Johnson

RB - Pittman

WR - J. Smith

TE - A. Gates

K - Stover

Def - Redskins

 

I need to select 2 of the following players:

 

RB - Westbrook @ St.L.

RB - A. Smith vs. Den.

RB - S. Morris vs. Cle.

WR - R. Smith @ Ten.

WR - B. Stokley vs. S.D.

WR - A. Johnson @ Jax.

 

Scoring: 1 pt per 10 total yards, 3 pt bonus for RBs that go over 150 total yards, 1 pt per catch for WRs. 6pts for TDs less than 40, and 9pts for TDs more than 40.

 

Thanks again, Hugh!

Happy Holidays Hugh :D

 

I need 1 QB:

Vick @ New Orleans (Will he play?)

Hasselbeck vs. Arizona (Is he healthy?)

Delhomme @ Tampa Bay (Tampa is my defense so I don't want to root against them if I don't have to.)

I'm leaning toward Hasselbeck since they have a lot to play for and are at home.

 

I need 3 RB:

L.Johnson vs. Oakland (No Brainer)

T.Bell & R. Droughns @ Tennessee

E.James vs. San Diego

J.Jones vs. Washington

Johnson is a definite, I was leaning toward Bell until I heard Droughns was starting, James has been solid all year, Jones has a lot of upside, but going against a tough D.

 

Thanks for your opinion :D

Okay at WR which 3 for the SB Hugh.

 

Porter- at KC

Mason- v Den

Thank you and happy holidays Hugh.

So, Champ Bailey will cover Bennett. That would make Mason a very good option next week. Please start him. :D

Your other 4 options are actually all quite good. Clayton has faded a little, but I think he'll have a decnet day against a very hot defense. He's a decent option, but probably your worst. Bench please. :D

Moulds has a great matchup. He's been having a hard time finding the end zone. I like him this week, as I think teams will have to start to respect Evans more and more (remember the Peerless Price years?). He's a bit of a risk, and in your case your second worst option. Bench please. B)

In other words, start Horn and Porter. I'm sketchy about Porter, but against KC you just CAN'T go wrong. Horn is hot, they're at home, and he played well in their first meeting. No reason to sit him. :D

 

Jacksonville.

 

I wouldn't start a banged up Bell in a Shanahan RBBC clusterf*ck, regardless of what the huddle projects, when I have another good option. Portis is another good option. Portis please. :D

 

Good luck.

Here's what I'm looking at Hugh.

 

Start 3 WRs (1 pt per 10 yards and 6 pts per TD)

 

Horn VS ATL

Walker @ MIN

Evans @ SF

A Johnson @ JAX

Clayton VS CAR

 

*I'm leaning towards Horn, Walker and Evans

 

Start 2 RBs (1 pt per 10 yards and 6 pts per TD)

 

A Green @ MIN

Pittman VS CAR

Bell @ TEN

 

I'm leaning towards Green and Bell

 

Thoughts...opinions? Thanks again for your opinions.

Hugh,

Please pick ONE to go with Jimmy Smith and Nate B.(going against C-pepp-will use Nate as safeguard).

 

Moulds @ SF

Clayton vs. Car.

TJ Hous vs. NYG

Ward vs. BALT.

 

What do your think? Thanks

 

626426[/snapback]

 

 

 

 

All decent. Moulds has the best matchup, and is the primary target. I know he's been cold lately, but like I mentioned earlier, the recent success of Evans could really open it up for Moulds, and with the matchup being solid, I really like Moulds this week.

Happy Holidays Hugh! The very best to you and your family.

 

Well, I made it, Im in the championship!!! Dont ask me how, must be that blind squirrel/occasional nut thing :D

 

Here's what Ive got: I need to pick a defense from these three: Miami v Cle, NE @ NYJ, CAR @ Tampa

 

Also, I have a dreaded kicker question (sorry, if you want to ignore it I understand, I know these guys are hit/miss), if you wouldnt mind weighing in Id be grateful: Lindell @ SF (50's, some showers) or Graham @ NYG

 

Finally, would you start Kitna (@ NYG) if he plays, Brady @ NYJ, or McCown @ Sea.

 

Kinda irritating questions I know, but if you'd help me this one last time I'd appreciate it! :D

The saga continues Favre or McNabb.  Both on National TV, both have good match-ups.  I don't think Favre's injury will impede his performance.  While McNabb might not play the whole game and losing TO will make a difference in his numbers.  Who do you start?

 

626431[/snapback]

 

 

 

 

McNabb has gone from a must start to a don't start. No TO, and in a meaningless game is not a good option. If TO is throwing to Pinkston as his primary WR you can shelf him indefinitely. Favre, in essence playing for the division title, against a porous Vikes secondary, is a very good option.
