Been a bad season this year. I feel i have a great team, but only half my team shows up every week. I am currently sitting in 7th place out of 10 teams trying to buy a spot in the playoffs which 8 go. This week unfortunatly i play the #1 spot which he has only lost 1 time this season, so i am in trouble. Onto the dillemas
 
RB Starters
L. Johnson
Steve Slaton
 
Bench, S. Jackson (out this week)
Derick Ward (Do i play him if Jacobs is out?maybe if he's in?)
Deuce (obviously no)
 
WR Starters
D. Jackson
L. Evans
R. Moss
 
Bench
Galloway
Curtis
 
Evans hasnt done shit for about 4 weeks so hes about due, but Curtis at least gets a few points. Almost thinking of starting Jackson and Curtis together. Bad combo though

yes I started ward if jacobs is out....do it in a second.
 
tough call with your WRs....not a huge fan of jackson, as a rookie you have to expect the ups and downs. galloway is droppable at this point.
 
curtis isn't terrible, so I'd decide between him and jackson.....start evans and moss and hope for the best.
 
GL this week.

Thanks Nofancy
 
Who would i bench inspite of starting Ward?  Slaton has been awsome this year for me other than a couple of games. Johnson had a pretty good week last week other than not getting in the endzone. With all his troubles, hes going to be playing his heart out to make him look good for his legal/suspension battles.  But i agree that i need to start Ward if Jacobs is out.

well, it may be a moot point if jacobs plays but.....I'd probably bench johnson.....both are good options this week so I can't blame you either way.....I just love slaton and to me, he's almost unbenchable b/c he's so good in the passing game.
 
johnson should have a solid game but hey you have to bench someone....if jacobs doesn't play, ward is a top 6 or 7 RB this week.

I think I go the way you have it set with your starters

Thanks Bustin.  I will more than likely go that way, but if Jacobs is out i have to put Ward in. Receivers are probably set pending any late info.  I did however drop Galloway and picked up Crayton. He might be a good one with Austin out. i would assume he will take his place on the return team and get more balls thrown his way. I might consider.

I like your choices, Ward is a must play if Jacobs is out
I think Philly passes alot in this game with Balts stout run D

I think your right. Do you go with both Curtis and Jackson? or which one do you go with?  Evans has to have a breakout game sometime and i dont want him on the bench when it happens, but im in desperate need of a win this week. It would almost guarantee me my spot in the playoffs.

Evans is a FF enigma, just never know when he will go off  Mr. consistently inconsistent is what I call him
Edwards  has been in a funk the past 5 weeks however KC seems to be susceptible to the deep pass ala L.Moore last week so Evans could be in line for 2 catches 80 yards and a score as that what his stat lines usually looks like
as far as using both Curtis and Jackson as much as it could turn out ok for you I would lean Evans at this point and slight edge to Curtis as he will want to make up for the couple drop balls he had last week

check weather for both games as it could be a factor
