Start 'em Sit 'em Thread

[bengals_in_miami]

Ask your week to week start 'em or sit 'em questions here...

I'll start it off by having a RB question:

My RBs are (in an 8 team league): Ladanian Tomlinson, Marion Barber III, Sammy Morris, Adrian Peterson, Jerious Norwood, and Fred Taylor.

Now, for some odd reason the league voted to start both 3 RBs AND a wide receiver/running back position. And as my wide receivers are less then spectacular (chambers, wayne, jerricho cotchery)...it looks like its all RBs.

Who should I start in the four positions?

I am leaning towards LT, Marion Barber, Sammy Morris, and Adrian Peterson...what do you think?



I also have a second dilemma, I have 3 QBs (with 2 starting), Brees (bye), Brady (probable, shoulder), and Jake Delhomme (out, elbow). The only servicable spot starters are:

Kurt Warner (not even sure he will start)
Derek Anderson (plays for the Browns)
David Garrard
Jason Cambell
Joey Harrington (yikes!)
Daunte Culpepper
Jeff Garcia


So, who do I pick up and give the start till delhomme gets better or Brees is out of his funk?

And if this is helpful, I am 2-1 so far and play a team that is 1-2 but has scored more total points then me.

Any suggestions are helpful.

I would expect Brady to be fine for you. Though I do like Garrad. And I agree with your rb choices.

Ladanian Tomlinson, Marion Barber III,Sammy Morris


Kurt Warner (not even sure he will start) NO
Derek Anderson (plays for the Browns) Ravens week
David Garrard BYE
Jason Cambell BYE
Joey Harrington (yikes!) not against Houston
Daunte Culpepper I wouldn't start unless he played before this season
Jeff Garcia Best bet,not much of one though


Can't you get Matt Schaub? Not that it is a issue because 80 percent of the time Brady plays injured

RB1: LT
RB2: Marion Barber
RB3: Adrian Peterson
WR1: Reggie Wayne (How many WRs are you starting?)
RB/WR if that is the option should go to Reggie Wayne, or, if you have him at WR, Jerious Norwood.

As for the QB...Start Brady and pick up Jeff Garcia.

Scratch Jeff Garcia off, he lost a LG on offense

Heres another question:

Drew Brees vs carolina or jake delhomme against NO?

[Judge]

Jake Delomme

[oasiswr]

Heres another question:

Drew Brees vs carolina or jake delhomme against NO?
Jake is still out or questionable against NO. (elbow injury-- could need season ending surgery) Just a small question--- why do you have a player in your sig who looks like he's ready to use his DSL? For some reason I have found that very disturbing in most cases to be honest.

Need to start 2 RB's for week five: Reggie Bush, Michael Pittman, Fred Taylor, or Brian Leonard (Steven Jackson's replacement).

Going with Bush for sure and I'm leaning more towards Pittman or Leonard.

If you want to leave it at that, I would play Pittman, Arizona's defense was the only team to really stop Willie Parker during last weeks game. Their defense looked impressive and St. Louis is going up against Arizona's D this week. I don't like the offensive effort out of the Rams and would stay away from them at all costs. They are bottom of the league when it comes to TOP and if you don't have the ball, it doesn't really give the offense time to put up any stats. I havn't been following fred taylor but I believe Jags are playing KC this week who gave up over 120 yards last week (albeit LT but with a depleted offense there as well). I would give Fred Taylor a look as well, he put up halfway decent numbers in week 3 before the bye and before he took a shot to the leg with a helmet.

Summery: Go with Bush and Taylor.
If Taylor is going to sit due to injury. Go with Pittman. TB is in talks with getting Chester Taylor from MIN.

Week 5:

LenDale White (TEN RB vs ATL)

Larry Johnson (KC RB vs JAC)

Reggie Bush (NO RB vs CAR)


Which two do I start?

Also, I have a huge QB Problem now, Marc Bulger benched... and I have Philip Rivers as his backup. Either one havn't been lighting up the night's sky.

[Defensewouldbenice]

Week 5:
Need 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 flex

I have Bush, Gore, Peterson (Bye), and Jacobs (of NYG, comming off injury).
At WR I have Holt, Branch, Bowe, Crayton, and Chambers (and Andre Johnson, but he's still injured)

Currently I'm leaning toward:
RB: Gore
RB: Bush
Flex: Bowe
WR: Branch
WR; Crayton
WR; Holt

Thoughts? Im not real sure about Crayton over Chambers, but Chambers blew last week.

Oh, and Defense: Steelers vs Seattle, or Bears @ Greenbay?

I'd start Bush and LJ, they've got to break out at some point...right? Remember White is splitting carries (I think?) and Bush no longer is as Deuce is done for the year.
Check the waiver wire? Maybe someone like Garcia is available?

Well I'm not sure if you like long shots but Detriot is giving up tons of yards passing and Washington plays them next. So Jason Campbell? Since I was desperate for qb last week with both Jake and Marc questionable --- I picked up Dante last week for QB. Currently I have Joey Harrington in one and Jason Campbell in another because David Carr isn't going to fair much better without Pace.

[bengals_in_miami]

Drew Brees @SEA or Culpepper @SD?

TOUGH call

[Paul from Dayton]

Drew Brees @SEA or Culpepper @SD?

TOUGH call

I'd still go with Brees.

What about Donte Stallworth vs. Cowboys or Nate Burleson vs. Saints (Deion Branch is out).

And Deshawn Wynn vs. Washington or Reggie Bush vs. Seattle

[IgnoreME]

And Deshawn Wynn vs. Washington or Reggie Bush vs. Seattle

I would go wtih Burleson with Deion Brach out.

I would go wtih Reggie Bush after watching Pitt run all over them. Granted, Reggie is no Willie Parker but Bush is comming along being the Feature Back.



PS. I had posted about my QB Dilemma last week. I am totally Glad I waited and Played Philip Rivers last week! Holy Fantasy points!!

[Paul from Dayton]

QB; McNabb vs. Chicago or Kitna vs. Tampa

[SmallAxe]

After that embarassment by Minn, I expect CHI's D to come out and paly with a fire next week. Kitna should be back putting up huge numbers if Calvin is at 100% after their bye.

I vote for Kitna.

[bengals_in_miami]

QB; McNabb vs. Chicago or Kitna vs. TampaMCNABB. just a feeling
