Team 1 (.25 PPR)

Oak D @ Den
QB: Stafford neither are good, Stafford has only had 4 multi TD games, Romo is going to be rushed-injuries
TE: Pettigrew neither are good options, but Owen Daniels has only had 1 rec in each of the last 3 vs colts

WR: Lloyd, Holmes (pick 2)no team gave up more to ff WRs than Dallas and they are missing Newman.



Team 2 (.5 PPR)

1 point PPR league. My Flex - Should i go Stevie Johnson or Marshawn?

My receivers blow. I have W.Welker starting and Deangello Williams as my flex. I was thinking of picking up AJ Green and starting him instead of
one of the following.

A.Collie@HOUST
Sidney Rice@SF
H.Ward@Balt
D.Driver vs NO

[dirtdickens]

How about Meachem, Burleson or Lee Evans? One of them should be a free agent and a better option than Green.

Johnson

Big Ben

Best

Yup

[its50]

Big Ben

Yup

throughout the season, you'd go with Ben and Best, or is it just the match up? esp the Best v Felix option

I can't see benching Best in a PPR but if Jones is going off you should try to find room for both, and I perfer Big Ben every week....

[linkin90]

im starting mendenhall and ray rice going up against each other. but i also have forte. should i put in forte in for one of these? wasn't really considering it but apparently the ravens don't fare well against pitt. also debating romo or stafford.. but leaning towards stafford

[skippy]

Flex position:
*RB Ryan Grant @ NO
WR Titus Young @TB
RB Michael Bush @ DEN
TE Tony Gonzalez @ATL

* - I have Grant active but he will be splitting reps so I don't know if I should keep him or not.

This is the offensive scoring for my league. (I am new to this.) What would this type of scoring be called so I can just refer to it later on? PPR?

Scoring for Offensive Categories

Plus 2 points for a FG of 50+ Yds
FL - Fumble Lost, Including ST plays -2 points

romo vs jets, flacco vs steelers.

bad option vs worse option this week.

i like flacco. i might be alone in that though

[BroHeat]

i like flacco. i might be alone in that though

i'm rolling with romo. flacco has LT issues, and the steelers are gonna e all over him. romo will dump to witten all day, no need to deal with the jets corners.

liek i said bad vs worse, but romo is projected better everywhere i look

I hope ur rite about witten i got him on my big league team

[dirtdickens]

romo vs jets. Not the greatest and this one could go either way, that is how much playing the Jets and injuries are knocking Romo down in this one.

Flex position:

This isnt PPR becaause you arent getting a point for every reception. This is non ppr. Also, Grant is splitting carries but at this point he is the only one out of the guys you mentioned that will have a defined role in non ppr settings. Starks is a recieving guy so far and Grant will still get carries. Gonzo is an option, but again because you dont get points per rec then he isnt valuable unless he catches a TD and thats unlikely.

You have to start Forte this week if its PPR. You could probabl swap out Forte for Rice in this one in PPR, if not ppr then stick to what you have. Stafford.

throughout the season, you'd go with Ben and Best, or is it just the match up? esp the Best v Felix option

just in this match up. You are going to be playing matchups all year with those 4 players

pretty sure that scoring is system is standard, however in my league (and i think most others) a passing td is worth 4 points instead of 6. it's not ppr however since i don't see anything on there for receptions, just 1 point for every 10 receiving yards

also i'd say go with grant for this week, i don't think they're going to do anything drastic week 1 and he is the starter, even if they'll be splitting the carries

[Scrappy34]

looking at Ray Rice's past stats against the Steelers, should I sit him and start Beanie Wells? Beanie has a great matchup against the Panthers

I could also start Jahvid Best who plays at the Bucs

[UCLAbruin1]

Sidney Rice @ SF, Amendola @ Phi, or Jordy Nelson @ GB for my WR#3

D. Williams @ Ari, Bradshaw @ Was, or Benson @ Cle for my WR#2?

[Flootie]

I have LeGarrete Blount, Jahvid Best, and Brandon Jacobs

which 2 should me starts

Flex position:
*RB Ryan Grant @ NO
WR Titus Young @TB
RB Michael Bush @ DEN
TE Tony Gonzalez @ATL

* - I have Grant active but he will be splitting reps so I don't know if I should keep him or not.

EDIT: Accidentally, deleted my comment. Round 2 at this.

I think you're making the right call in Grant. Detroit is gonna unload on the Bucs, but Titus won't have a huge part in it this early in the season. Michael Bush is a backup and Tony Gonzalez (he plays for Atl, not against Atl) is a shell of his former fantasy worth and playing a tough Bears D. Grant may be splitting time, but he is their number 1 guy so go with him.

I'd also keep a close eye on Titus throughout the year, because if he plays well, there is a very good chance he will jump Burleson for the number 2 receiver spot, which is golden bc Megatron is gonna get double covered all day. The number 2 guy in that offense has it good.

Here is the thing with the always start your studs- If you have someone like Beanie Wells vs Panthers you have to play that guy somehow. Rice's stats are bad against the Steelers, real bad, but you have to temper your predictions for him. He usually racks up 60 yards a game against the Steelers, what if he happens to punch one in? Thats an 8 point game in my league. Not the double digits I want out of my #1, but he is more likely to put those points on the board than any other player. Best is a great option in PPR leagues, but I still go with Beanie, then Rice and then Best.
