eagles2010 Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Just curious if anyone believes games like Pitt/Diego today benefit LB's like Cooper. I'm trying to determine who to start out of this group: Beason @ Home verse Detroit. Sat him last week and was a mistake. Reasoning was the Raiders offense just wouldnt produce tackle opportunities.Do I dare make the same mistake again Kirk Morrison @ Miami. Just aquired at trade deadline. Ranked high here at the Huddle and agree that Miami will run heavily at the Raiders. Probably a given to start, but so many options. Gary Brackett @ Home verse Houston. Layed an egg practically verse Pitt last week with a dissapointing 3 point game. Been pretty solid this last month or so. Rosenthals throwing multiple INT's and the Colts must be pumped to have an opportunity to win today. Stephen Cooper @ PITT. Weather should be light snow and light winds. Nothing too outragous, but I am wondering if PITT leans on the ground game or airs it out verse one of the worst pass defenses in the league. Cooper can rush the passer a bit, and Big Ben has been sacked alot this season. A Cooper sack would almost make him a must start in my league. Besides that, Cooper has been playing well as of late with atleast 5 solo's the last 3 games. Does Brackett's bad game from the middle show a trend verse Pitt? The Huddle has Cooper ranked high as well. I am leaning towards Beason and Morrison, but Cooper and bad weather makes me wonder. Heck, even Brackett may be a good start. We start 1 DL/DT , one LB , one DB and a flex DL,LB,DB. 5 point INT's, 4.5 point sacks, 1 point tackles and pass deflections and 3 point fumble and fumble recoveries. These games are getting very important as my squad is fighting for a bye week with 4 other teams. I appreciate any input, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
