3 questions for Week 9

[theprez]

- Yahoo Keeper league

- Standard scoring plus 0.5 pts per catch

- Standard lineup plus WR/RB flex

 

Here is the starting lineup I have right now:

 

QB - BFavre @ KC

WR - RMoss @ Ind

WR - BMarshall @ Det

WR - RoWilliams @ Den

RB - KJones vs Den

RB - LTomlinson @ Min

TE - TScheffler @ Det

WR/RB - ABoldin @ TB

K - NFolk @ Phi

DEF - Balt @ Pit

 

BENCH -

DBrees vs Jax

LMaroney @ Ind

JNorwood vs SF

AJohnson @ Oak

SJackson BYE

JShockey BYE

 

My questions:

 

(1) Favre or Brees at QB?

 

(2) Roll with Baltimore Def @ Pitt? Is Baltimore still an every week play? Are they dropable??!

Some other FA options are:

 

Wash @ NYJ

Dallas @ Phil

SDiego @ Min

Hou @ Oak

Tenn vs Car

 

(3) Roll with Scheffler as a bye week TE? Some other FA TE's options are:

 

EJohnson vs Jax

JKing @ Tenn

WHeller @ Cle

ACrumpler vs SF

 

Guess I am a little worried about starting 4 guys in the Denver-Detroit game (KJones, RWilliams, BMarshall and Scheffler)

 

Any thoughts for me??

Thanks!!!

Brees / Favre is tough. I might take Brees over Favre just because teams that have a short week AND go on the road historically don't fare too well. Arrowhead is a tough place to get a win, no matter who you are.

 

I don't think the Ravens are an every week start anymore, especially against a team that's rolling like the Steelers. I'd probably go with the Chargers against the Vikings. Minnesota's secondary is Antoine Winfield and a bunch of guys named Joe. I have a feeling you'll see SD air it out to Gates and even Tomlinson and build a lead in this game. A.Peterson can always blow up, but the Chargers have a stout run-D, too. Now that they've righted the ship in SD, I might think about the Chargers D the rest of the way.

 

Sheffler is a sneaky TE, but I might like Eric Johnson a little bit more.
