    Can you really start Megatron this week?

    I've been a Calvin owner since his rookie season and have noticed that with his injuries these past few years that Calvin usually takes off of practice on Wednesday (for Sunday games) and then generally practices for the rest of the week. I have also noticed that when he is obviously injured...

    Rhett Ellison, anything to see here?

    With Kyle Rudolph out for 6 weeks he's probably expected back after the Vikings bye week which is week 11. That gives 6 games for Rhett Ellison who is listed as the backup TE on the depth chart. What I know about this kid is that he was a 4th round pick in 2012 who was expected to go...

    Calvin Johnson's knee injury

    I know that sitting out pracitce on Wednesdays has been the norm for Megatron this year but he is sitting again this Thursday. IIRC the last time he didn't practice on a Thursday, he didn't practice that Friday, and didn't play on Sunday. I haven't seen any mention regarding the severity of...

    What to expect from Vereen when he returns

    Shane Vereen practiced today. It looks like he's on track to be activated for week 11 after the Pats bye week. What should we expect from him? In week 1 he led the team in carries with 14 and yards with 101. He added seven receptions for 58 yards. Is it realistic that he comes close to these...

    NY Jets WRs

    Looking to get more conversation on the NY Jets WRs, which are probably available in the majority of leagues. Admittedly I did little research on the Jets as I thought their offense would be offensive. I'm still not sure about the Jets O and what to make of Geno Smith since week 1 was his...

    Commish scheduling question

    I'm taking over as commish in a 14 team league with two divisions playing the regular season weeks 1-13. I'd like to schedule divisional doubleheaders the first 3 weeks and the last 3 weeks of the our regular season. Has anyone done this before or is there a website that helps with funky...

    Are Da Bears Defense

    The Green Bay Packers placed OT Derek Sherrod (leg) on the Injured Reserve Tuesday, Dec. 20. RT Bryan Bulaga is also trying to come back from a knee injury, and veteran Chad Clifton is dealing with a back injury. We should see T.J. Lang start at RT for the Packers on Sunday against the Bears...

    Is Vince Young a good start this week?

    He's thrown for over 250 yds and one TD in each of his past 2 games. Vick is out and McCoy is listed as questionable. Even though Maclin is out there are plenty of able bodies to catch balls. Has the ability to make plays with his legs. Seahawks D is middle of the road, better than most...

    You play to win the game

    I'm sure this has been brought up before but I believe I have the opportunity to decide my playoff opponent next week. I am in second place and there are 2 teams that are 2 games back of me fighting for the final playoff spot to play against me next week. I play Team A who has been decimated...

    Peyton Manning

    Most who picked Peyton as their #1 QB have played him every week. Some didn't even draft a backup QB. Astute owners snagged the likes of Orton and Vick off the WW to block other teams from adding them knowing they most likely wouldn't go QBBC and will keep playing Manning every week. Now here...

    Defense by Committee

    I've been holding Denver's D since week 2 but have been afraid to play them since week 3 due to the way they played last year. I've been holding because I like what Mike Nolan's been doing with the unit and I like some of their upcoming matchups, specifically at Washington, at KC and Oakland...

    Is QB, RB or WR #1 week 8 still #1 week 16?

    Let me preface by saying I am not a member so if this is covered in the subscriber content then mods feel free to delete. Is there any statistical analysis showing how, for example, QB #1 or RB #1 after week 8 (or any week, on average due to bye weeks) finished after week 13 or 16 (typically...

    Injured players with week 6 bye

    Last week was pretty quiet for the likes of Gore, Felix Jones and A Gonzo. The only news that I caught was that A Gonzo was not practicing during the bye week. Is there any early news on their expected availability to practice and play this week?

    Buffalo Bills No Huddle in 2009

    http://myespn.go.com/blogs/nflnation/0-7-6...-for-Bills.html Interesting. I live in Buffalo and on the radio they were comparing the 2009 team with the 1990's K-Gun offensive players. They may think they have the right players on the team but I think it will be a challenge to succeed with a...

    TO vs Giants

    I think TO is primed for a big game on prime time tonight. Owens had five catches for 36 yards and one score in his first game this season against New York without Romo. Owens had nine catches for 212 yards and four touchdowns in his two games against the Giants last season with Romo. The only...

    Mercedes Lewis

    Pros: - Matt Jones and Jerry Porter are out, not that Porter has mattered this year anyway. - Jax lost 4 in row and has given up an average of 26 points per game in those losses; they'll most likely be playing from behind as GB has scored 29 PPG in their last 4. Jax O is averaging 13 PPG in...

    Greg Olsen

    In the past two games Olsen went 1-7. The two previous games he went 9-95. It's not like St. Louis and Minnesota have been shutting down the opposing TE; granted both games were away. What's changed in the past 2 weeks? Dez Clark entered the last game against Minn as questionable and went...

    Atlanta's QB this week

    I've read speculation that Redman may start this week. At home against a week NO pass D I think that he could be a good play in start 2 QB leagues. The last I read, Petrino would not name a starter on Monday. I checked out the Atlanta Journal Constitution newspaper but there is no update for...

    If this post is a Honda then please direct me to this dicussion as the Search funtion came up with nothing. Who get's Colston's production if he is out for any games? As posted in the Colston injury thread Henderson has problems dropping balls and Copper has problems fumbling balls. In one...

    WRs and Broken Fingers

    I have read that after TOs surgery he should be back in 2-4 weeks. Link Owens, who broke his hand in Sunday night's game against Washington, had a plate screwed into the bone attached to his right ring finger during an operation Monday evening. His recovery time is estimated at two to four...
