Yeah i still feel like it's must win even though im 4-2 and i was a beanie wells play away from being 5-1... my team just isnt strong and i keep havin to use bits and pieces to scrape by... however every week seems like somethin gets thrown my direction and i hop on it... this week was no exception, although ive left maurice morris for now. i ave more rb's than i care to as it is and just had to look away giving up starks, who i know at some point will have 1 or two big games, anyway lemme know what yous guys think, ive done my usual dismantling of the team and rebuilt with backups and waiver gold

K Jason Hanson ATL (i suck at kickers)

BN Hakeem Nicks BYE (really would rather have a top tier RB still)
BN Frank Gore BYE
BN Beanie Wells PIT (Should be healed up... but it is PIt)
BN Antonio Brown @AZ (Heyward Bey is a scury play)
BN DeMarco Murray STL(hoping this is a long term pickup vs Morris who will be out when best returns)

I would start Murray over Graham..and I would think about Wells over Torain. Noone knows how shannahan is going to play it. Wells is vs. PIT but has PIT really stopped any RB this season yet??

This one is interesting........ #1 Bears fan and jjtweeks have a slightly different take but I agree one the part they both agree on. You have not given Beanie Wells enough credit or the Steelers D too much credit maybe. I also like Beenie as a lock and rate Graham and Murry as a very close call..... Torrian isn't a bad start either but for me he is the biggest risk.... many owners will be using Torrain this week and should get good results but you have RBs out the wazoo.

all right so I did plug beanie back in, although im feeling torain, it's just not a sure thing, what's really unknown though is heyward-bey... will he catch anything? maybe should just put in antonio brown... we do get pts for return yards but not many... i just dunno what the raiders are doing honestly

Bey and Rice both playing with back up QBs.

If one of those wr spots is a flex, I'd get a RB in there.

Good Luck!

nah no flex and all i have is a. brown, s. rice, dhb, and colston (nicks bye) - im considering sitting dhb for brown, but who's seattle throwing out there, whitehurst? i think little is available, but yardage really isnt rewarded at all in this league, at least not well, and i dunno where mccoy has been looking red zone

Antonio Brown for me, stud for me in a big scoring KR league. Another league I have weak wrs, very flexy league, play Brown every week as he seems like the guy with the best chance to get a score....... even though he doesn't.

Hope you played Brown, Colston and Bey and left Rice on the bench.

...but what are the chances :biggrin:

i went brown colston rice... but really dhb scored 5.5 (he had a tackle apparently) and rice had 2. no big shakes. my RB, on the other hand, combined (graham and wells) for a total of 2 ****ing points. coulda been a monster week if i played murray, instead im on pins and needles hoping a suggs/mike thomas cant get the 8 pts to tie me... and i coulda been in 2nd in both these leagues :shake:

Sorry gizzil. never saw that coming with anything that happened beanie is really frustrating me with these minor(imo) constant health issues. If murray never busted that first run off he may? have shared touches with choice most of the game(got me there too). Good luck

taint your fault like i said i mostly ask in case i missed some big news or i want to be talked into what i already wanna do... i had a feeling on murray but so many rb's... hell if i started torain over beanie i woulda had 0 pts insteada 2 haha, just really a weird week id say in general. too many byes and alotta low scoring fantasy games... i woulda killed any other team but the guy im playing has sproles AND graham. normally, this woulda killed him and i would be fine. instead, brees had to hit sproles and graham for td's and they let sproles walk in for that 1.. ugh why do i always lose to the dregs of this league...:wtf:
