Rob96WVU Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 My scoring system is weighted heavily to TD's versus yards and longer TD's get proportionately higher points: Need two of the following RB's RB: Jones-Drew (at HOU), Gore (at MIN), or F.Jones (at home for CAR). I'm leaning towards JD and Jones but I just read that Barber practiced (so Gore may be the safer pick even though he is going against a tough MIN D. WR: I've got Calvin Johnson and must start two of the following: Laurent Robinson (home v GB), B. Berrien (home v SF), Brandon Marshall (at OAK), Lance Moore (at BUF), or Kevin Walter (home v JAX). I'm leaning towards Berrien and Robinson but Brandon Marshall has got to do something at some point.....right??? Advice needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbcastello Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 JD and Felix Jones. Gore won't do well against a good D i do not think. Jones will always put up points. I'd say B berrian and Lance Moore for WRs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbcastello Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Well Barber may be out this week so DEF start felix jones... he always has the chance to put up massive points... and all your other receivers have been on or off so... just wait and see what you feel.

ChantMyName Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) I still say you go with Gore despite the tougher match-up. Two reasons. One, if Barber is out you can't forget about Tashard Choice who will also be in on the action a great deal. Personally, I wouldn't mind starting either of those two in that situation. Second, Kevin Smith just stacked 100+ on the Vikings last week. In fact, so far their rush D has given up a hundie yards in each of their first two games. Don't get me wrong, they're still among the best run d's in the league but I wouldn't rank Gore beneath K. Smith. Just saying, I think there's a little more hope there than a committee situation.
