my current line up (i did drop big ben recently for campbell).. based on how many pts they scroed in my league over that last 4 games

QB Jason Campbell (Was - QB) -hosting NYG
WR Kenny Britt (Ten - WR) -hosting MIA
WR Devin Thomas (Was - WR) -hosting NYG
WR Robert Meachem (NO - WR) -hosting DAL
RB Thomas Jones (NYJ - RB) -hosting ATL

BN Roddy White (Atl - WR) -@NYJ
BN Randy Moss (NE - WR) -@BUF
BN Vince Young (Ten - QB) -hosting MIA

im up against this guy..

QB Donovan McNabb (Phi - QB) hosting SF

WR Andre Johnson (Hou - WR) @StL
WR Johnny Knox (Chi - WR) @Bal
RB Ray Rice (Bal - RB) -hosting Chi

any recomendations.. Moss has been hit or miss.. this his week?
I hate to sit fitz (would be a 1st all season).. but the knee and the easy matchup he might not need too play much, but then again they need the win right? Im over thinking again..

thanks all

This is who I'd start:

QB Jason Campbell (Was - QB) -hosting NYG
BN Randy Moss (NE - WR) -@BUF
BN Larry Fitzgerald (Ari - WR) -@ DET (He tweeted yesterday that he's fine and that he'll practice today)
WR Robert Meachem (NO - WR) -hosting DAL
RB Thomas Jones (NYJ - RB) -hosting ATL
RB Ricky Williams (Mia - RB) -@ TEN
TE Fred Davis (Was - TE) -hosting NYG
W/R Joseph Addai (Ind - RB) -@JAC

K Jay Feely (NYJ - K) -hosting ATL

BN Arizona (Ari - DEF) -@ Det

bench

WR Kenny Britt (Ten - WR) -hosting MIA
BN Alex Smith (SF - QB) -@ PHI
BN Roddy White (Atl - WR) -@NYJ
WR Devin Thomas (Was - WR) -hosting NYG
BN Vince Young (Ten - QB) -hosting MIA
DEF Green Bay (GB - DEF) -@ Pit



Now, I would consider Roddy White over Meachem. I think you can swap them out based on gut feelings. Keep in mind though, the Jets have been incredible at shutting down #1 WRs. Revis is a full on shut down corner.

I own Randy Moss in a league too and seeing him throw up a goose egg last week was painful. I wouldn't worry about it though. He's getting a lot of heat from the media about quitting, but then we heard Tom Brady come out and defend him. That's honestly the best thing we can ask for from that club right now. I feel that Brady feels like he has a lot to prove and he also feels like he wants to show the world that Moss isn't quitting. I expect big things from Randy this week.

Larry Fitz got an MRI on Tuesday and it showed no additional damage to his sprained knee, just bruised. He then tweeted yesterday that he's fine and that he'll practice today. Expect him suited up.

With Kevin Smith on IR I don't think ARI's D/ST has much to worry about. Lock down Calvin Johnson and they should have a field day.


The best advise I can give you, is to spend time with your line up before ever looking at his team. You need to sit down and go through every position and matchup you can think of and start the best players every single week that you can. Only then, when you're 100% certain that you will be squeezing every last point out of your team that you can, can you look at his lineup. Honestly, he's stacked, there's no doubt about it, but so are you. I mean he's got Reggie Wayne and Matt Forte who've not done much recently, and I can kind of expect not to see too many looks to Reggie past the 1st half. Johnny Knox against Baltimore's D... I think Jay Cutler will get picked off more times than Knox catches the ball. Do not sleep on San Fran's D. They could hold Donavan to bad day, but take a look, he's starting SF's D too. Whatever Donavan does it will be negated with a loss of points there. Andre Johnson and Ray Rice will go off, no doubt about it, but I think that's all you really have to outscore, is those two. I think you're going to have a very close championship, my friend. Good luck.

Start Fitz and Moss definitley and if J Cribbs is available with the return yards and his increased role in the offense grab him and sit Meachem! And start AZ Defense. I wouldnt worry about hem not playing due to blowout looking to make a statement after last week it is going to be a beat down!!! Your QB scares me both are bad starts this week I would see who else is available??
