Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hi Hugh, So I have a delima this week... I have ... R. Droughn's at NO where he should run like crazy D. McAllister at Denver where he should run like crazy C. Dillion at KC with an okay run Defense D. Blaylock at home against NE with a slightly week run defense right now I have these guys starting..... D. McAllister at Denver where he should run like crazy C. Dillion at KC with an okay run Defense D. Blaylock at home against NE with a slightly week run defense I an only start up to 3 RBs and 2 WR's. My WR's are T. Holt, D. Givens, D. Mason, and J. Morton. I'm planning on starting Givens and Holt as of now. Thanks! 562023[/snapback] OK, I like the idea of starting 3 RB's for sure. All three are good options, but I think I'd bench Blaylock. Then, at WR, you have to be careful. Holt is questionable with a concussion, so keep an eye on that. If Holt goes, start him and Mason. If not, go Mason and Givens. I know Mason has a tough matchup, but Volek likes throwing to Mason, so I think he'll produce, and there are just too many options both in NE and KC to make Givens or Morton better options imo.

Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hugh, I am fighting to make the playoffs and have a couple big decisions this week. Standard performance scoring... 1pt for 10 rushed/recived 6 pt for TD rushed /rec, 1 pt 20 yards passed and 3 pt TD passed QB's (start one) Brees @ Oak or Brady @ KC (MNF) or Carr vs GB RB's (Start two) Dillon @ KC or Blaylock vs NE or Tomlinson @ OAK WR's (start one as have Owens as other WR) Williams @ MN or Givens @ KC or Holt at Buffalo Thanks for the advice 562027[/snapback] I think your QB decision is simple. Play one of the hottest QB's, well rested after a bye, with a good matchup. Start Brees all the way. At RB Ilike Blaylock and LT, but make sure LT is OK. If it looks like he's still bothered by the groin (the bye week should have helped), and they plan on using Chatman, bench LT, because Dillon is a decent option as well. At WR, you have to start Holt, but once again, only if he's healthy. He's having some concussion problems, so keep an eye on that. If he's gimpy and/or not playing, Williams is the next best bet, because of the matchup, but keep an eye on his health as well. Good luck.

Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hugh I need to pick 3 wr's for this week. Regular performance league Burleson vs Lions Givens vs Chiefs Horn vs Saints Lloyd vs Bucs McCardell vs Raiders Thanks 562043[/snapback] Horn unless he's not healthy. McCardell for sure. Burleson. Use Lloyd only if Horn is banged up or out. He hurt himself in practice yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hugh Im torn between Mason v Jax and Chad Johnson v Steelers in 1 league and Lloyd v Tampa and Fitzgerald v Giants on the other. 562050[/snapback] I think I start CJ over Mason. Both have pretty tough matchups. Volek likes Mason and all, but I think CJ has more big play capability. Lloyd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Typical performance based 10 team league. Gotta pick 2 from James, Pittman, E. Smith, F. Taylor James and Taylor were my first 2 picks and I know you ASYS, but these guys NEVER score TDs. At least Pittman and Emmitt find the end zone. It takes a lot of yards to make up for never scoring. 562065[/snapback] Tough call. Alstott back in the mix will hurt Pittman, although it's not certain that he'll play yet. I start Edge and Taylor if Alstott plays. If Alstott sits, play Taylor and Pittman. Do not bench Fred Taylor. Do not start Emmitt Smith.

Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hugh,Which 3 do you start reguardless of position in a yahoo performance based scoring system with no "required" positons. M. Clayton TB An Johnson Hou O. Smith Minn K. McCardel SD R. Smith Den Burleson Minn Thanks, look forward to your insight -Bones 562067[/snapback] Andre Johnson for sure. K. McCardell for sure. Then it's between Clayton and Smith, and I just can't bench Smith against New Orleans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 i've got a little wr dilemma...... pick 2 out of the 3 J. Smith vs. Titans H. Ward vs. Bengals D. Givens vs. Chiefs (Monday Night) 562070[/snapback] Smith and Ward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 -6 pts per td, 1 pt per 10 yrds rshing or recvngthe choice is to either start thomas jones or start david givens... thanks 562105[/snapback] Jones might not play. If he does, it will most likey be RBBC. If that's the case, start Givens. If, for some reason, it looks like Jones will play and be healthy and not split carries, then I'd start Jones, but that's highly unlikely.

Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Well Hugh,Last week we both agreed to start Willis, Edge, and Blaylock and sit Curtis Martin. We Both Were Wrong There. What do you think this week? Which 3 of these guys get the nod? Bledsoe is so bad, I feel that any D can put 11 in the box and stop Willis. They dont even have to cover the receivers cause Drew will miss them anyways. Thx 562246[/snapback] I just mentioned it in another post. It took me 9 weeks, but I don't think I'd sit Martin any more. I go with Willis, Edge and CuMar, although I'm on the fence between Willis and Blaylock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hey Hugh, big week and I need the win. I need to start two RBs and two Wrs. Same question as last week with a little variation. Barber v. ATL Pittman v. SF DDavis v. GB I was leaning towards Barber and Davis, then started thinking that Pittman has a good matchup!!! Mason @ JAX Ward @ CIN Clayton v. SF I am leaning towards Clayton and Mason. Thanks! 562315[/snapback] Well, I'll go against the huddle here, and tell you to bench Barber. I'm not sure how the huddle has Manning at 200 yards passing either. Atlanta will put 8 in the box making it tough for Barber to run, and Eli doesn't have the experience to make them pay, so I see a bad day for Tiki. I go Mason and Ward. The better, proven WR's over the young up and comer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trots Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hugh, another easy one for you: Performance scoring: Griese or A Brooks. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hugh, another easy one for you: Performance scoring: Griese or A Brooks. Thanks again. 562394[/snapback] As hard as it is to imagine, I think Griese is the better option here. SF gives up a lot of passing TD's (20 I think YTD), so Griese should benefit, while Brooks is just struggling, and now Horn gets hurt in practice, so I think Griese is your man.

dbwebhead Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hugh: Who to start at QB in Week 11? 1. Hasselbeck vs. Dolphins 2. Gerrard vs. Titans 3. Harrington @Vikings 4. Griese @49ers [1 pt every 25 yds, 5 pt bonus for 300+ yds.] Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griese @49ers [1 pt every 25 yds, 5 pt bonus for 300+ yds.] Thanks. 562406[/snapback] Well, imo, it's between Griese and Harrington. Garrard is too inexperienced, and Hasselbeck has struggled and is banged up and has a tough matchup. Now I know the huddle is not big on Harrington because he too has struggled, but as a Vikings fan, I've watched every game this year, and their secondary can make just about anyone look good. That being said, Griese is probably a slightly better option. Close though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfin2000 Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) Hey Hugh, My season is over, but I'm still playing for pride. My underachieving trio of WRs helped to put the nails in the coffin last week, so I'm benching one of them for McCardell. Which lucky used-to-be-a-stud rides the pine? Hines Ward, Chad Johnson, or Darrell Jackson? Thanks! Edited November 18, 2004 by tomfin2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondop Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hey Hugh, I think You've talked about a lot of these guys, but this is the WR situation: harrison - starting Clayton Williams McCardell I could start one more of those guys, or two more if I bench C.Brown (which I'll clearly do if he's not gonna go) The question is which to start, and is any other worth Benching Brown for anyway? and by the way, since i seem to be the last guy who has any faith in McNair, McNair (if he starts vs. Jax) or Griese? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gdawg Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hi Hugh, I have a real problem this week, please help! I can start three of the following: A. Green, C. Dillon, J. Lewis, or Antonio Gates (we can start 2 RBs and one flex position) What do you think? I also need to chose a WR between C. Johnson, R. Williams, J. Smith, and D. Mason. This is a must win week for me so any help you can give me will be GREATLY appreciated!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WR's for this week I'd rank like this: Smith Williams CJ Mason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athletic supporter Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I need to start two out of three of these underperformers: Toomer Chambers M. Robinson What say you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gdawg Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Thanks Hugh, I hate to sit Gates but all three Rbs have good matchups. I appreciate the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbwebhead Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Thanks for the starting QB advice. I have two more for you: If you were to start one receiver among this group, who would it be? 1. Hines Ward @Bengals or 2. Eric Moulds vs. Rams or 3. Derrick Mason @Jacksonville or 4. Santana Moss @Browns This one's probably easy - starting D: 1. Bears vs. Colts or 2. Bengals vs. Steelers or 3. Redskins vs. Eagles Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 I need to start two out of three of these underperformers: Toomer Chambers M. Robinson What say you? 562434[/snapback] Me say that sucks. I just can't see starting a WR on the Giants with Eli Manning behind center and an offensive line that has given up 39 sacks. While I think Chambers will not do well with Feeley at the helm, and Robinson may not do well because he's dinged up, I think they're better options than Toomer.
