    Im the 6th seed playing the 3rd seed. Ive been beat both times in this matchup, but by 7 and 2 points respectively. 3rd times a charm right?  Anyways he has some favorable and some unfavorable matchups. To my advantage he has Portis which may not play, but has Cutler going against KC and Lynch going against the phins. On to my matchups.
    QB's
    Warner against Rams (obvious)
    Hasselback vs Pats (may cut him this week)
     
    RB's (Start 2)
    Slaton vs G.B. 
    L. Johnson vs Denver
    S. Jackson vs Arizona
    Hillis vs KC (picked him up for more of a cockblock)
     
    WR's (start 3)
    Evans vs phins
    D. Jackson vs Giants (ouch)
    R. Moss vs Seahawks (like that matchup)
    A. Toomer vs Iggles (liking him with Plax out)
     
    TE
    Gonzalez (been on a tear with Thigpen)
     
    Kicker
    Bironas
     
    Def
    Tampa Bay vs Carolina
    Cleveland vs Tennesee
     
    The top players are my starters as of now. Input is very appreciated. Im up in the air whether or not to start Toomer and same with Jackson. Hillis could be a good start to. Dont know what to expect with Slaton, but Williams tore up G.B. defense last week. which in contrast scares me with my T.B. defense.

    Slaton is a must start... I'm sorry I can't start S Jax he has been injured a lot and they should be down early again against the high powered Arizona O, putting them in more passing situations.
     
    Both LJ and Hillis go head to head.  I'm always leary of Coach Shanahan but lately he seems to favore this guy. LJ may be a better choice personally 24 atts for 92 yards and a TD last week... Should be about time for him to go off.
     
    Evans, Moss and D Jackson for me... Giants are still a run 1st O, 2nd TE, 3rd WR
     
    D- Tampa

    Thanks guys. I actually have Hillis in at the moment. He is projected for 20 points this week   So for the meantime i have him in. I will probably put LJ back in before gametime. I'd like to see what some of the analysts are saying about Hillis as well. Johnson could have a great running day against Denver though, but if they get into playing catchup mode, they may abandon the running game and goto Gonzalez for me. I think the WR are good as well. Evans is really really due for a TD. Jackson will be ok if McNabb plays like he did last week.

    went with Hillis and Slaton and they were the right choices. I really got burned with Hillis getting hurt and not playing the 2nd half.  With my receivers non-existing this week and Zona killing the Rams to the point of having Kurt not throw the ball much killed me. I am down 14 points as of now and my oppponent has Steve Smith tonight. I have TB Defense. I need TB def to have a couple TDS a few sacks, give up 13 points or less and Steve Smith to get hurt on the first play of the game or it looks like my hard fought season will be coming to an end. Thanks for all the imput and advice ive received from all of you out there. Hopefully your playoff season has been better than mine
