Week 9 Flex Help

German CTL

Circle City Outlaw
Standard scoring with a half point per catch...

Mikel Leshoure @ Jax

Titus Young @ Jax

Fragile Felix Jones @ Atl

I'm leaning towards Young right now, what do you guys think?

Hey Circ,

I'm in the same boat with Leshoure and Young but I have Lance Moore instead of Felix.

I've waffled all week over this decision. They all have pluses and minuses.

Unsettling events surrounding Leshoure this past week otherwise I would start him. Yanked in the 2nd half last week, missed practice for "personal" reasons, rumors of an injury. As much as I love the match-up I just don't think Detroit has much interest in running the ball and Bell is the pass catcher in that back field.

Two things bother me about Titus. 1) He had a great week last week. Guys who teeter in the gray area of fantasy relevance rarely repeat. 2) If Jax is as bad as reported then I think Detroit will use them as tool to get Calvin off the underachiever list. There should still be some left for Young but I wouldn't expect another great game.

I ain't crazy about Felix but the match up looks very good. I can see Dallas winning this game in a high scoring affair. Jones is the undisputed #1 with goal line duties and Cowboys always make it a point to run some. I like starting a RB at flex.

I'll probably be the only one but I'm gonna say Jones. If that makes your stomach turn then go Young.

I just read where the injury to Calvin's knee could be a real factor this week. Keep an eye on this as CJ being out or limited would make Young a MUST start.

Just read that Calvin is a game time decision and if he DOES play it will be on a limited basis.


Now I'm wondering...

With Burleson OUT, Calvin limited and Titus still a little wobbly...Reckon maybe Detroit grinds the ball against a weak D and gives the wide outs a break?

Sure hope not.

Fortunately or not, I have to rely on LeShoure as a Rb each week, he finally paid off in spades for me
