Here is my question

Cutler, Flacco, or Ryan

You get .2 per completion, -.25 per sack, -2 per INT, 6 per TD, 1 for every 25 yards, 5 extra points at 300, 2.5 extra at 350, 2.5 extra at 400

Cutler is @ Tampa, Flacco is @ Jax, and Ryan is @ Det. 

I have Ryan and Eli Manning on my team (Eli is on bye).  I would waive Ryan if I were to pick up Cutler or Flacco (who for some reason are both in waivers).  I expect to use Eli after this week (he is a good deal better then the other 3 this year) though may do a matchup game so there is some thought beyond this week (Flacco has had his bye already as well, the others haven't).

Id be nervous to start Cutler in any league that penalizes sacks. In any game he could be sacked 7-10 times (not an exaggeration).

The Ravens are going to run the ball against Jax quite a bit.

Stick with Matty Ryan. I think that team had a big win and Detroit is stout against the run. It should also be a close game meaning Ryan will be throwing alot.

Who do you start at the Flex position?


Eric Decker
Sydney Rice
DeMarco Murray

Decker and it's not even close...

No more Lloyd and Decker becomes defacto number 1.

a defacto number 1 with Tebow throwing him passes.

I'd give Murray a look especially if it isn't a PPR league.

I'd start Cutler against Tampa.  Of the 3 oppenents listed, their pass D is the most suspect, IMO. 

Check the weather reports for London, UK. Could turn into a rugby scrum on a muddy, rain-soaked field at Wembley. And the sack considerations also give me pause for Cutler.

Didn't realize that was the weather forecast for London.  That would certainly give me pause and perhaps choose Matty Ice instead.

Well, I just looked at the forecast. 30% chance of scattered showers. So it may not be such a concern.

I seem to recall a recent London game in absolutely miserable conditions. And the turf was in bad shape too. Perhaps it's been improved.

Murray is giving carries to Choice. Plus even though he ran hard against NE, he only average 3.2 ypc.

Plus even Felix Jones only had one TD all year. The Dallas backfield doesnt sniff the endzone.

I'm looking ahead to Week 8, when virtually half my team (Rodgers, Roddy White, Jennings, Finley, Forte, Gould) is on a bye.

Available trade partners are pretty few and far between, but one guy in my league who might bite on what I have to offer (Palmer, Jacobs, and/or Lance Moore) has both Carolina RBs.

If you had to choose one, whom would you trade for: DeAngelo Williams, or Johnathan Stewart?

(Whomever I acquire probably never starts for me again, unless there's an injury to one of my starters, so I am not sweating on getting the best return possible).

They are playing a weak rush defense.


How does Decker do now that Lloyd is not longer there drawing cover and Tebow is the QB?

Stewart has been running a lot better, and if it wasn't for one big TD run (I think what...80 yards or something?) from DeAngelo Williams, you'd notice it a lot easier.

But, Williams just got a 30 million dollar extension. He'll get his touches, at least this year.

Yeah, I'd lean towards Stewart.

It's a moot point anyways. This guy hasn't checked his lineup in a month; there's no way he responds to me.

My league has three deadbeat teams in it, and there's nothing I hate worse than deadbeat fantasy managers. Nothing.

Looks like I will just drop Palmer, Moore, and Jacobs for some waiver wire help for Week 8. I had dropped Torain for a speculative flier on Palmer, before I realized that Palmer and my QB have the same bye week. I may just pick Torain back up.

Torain will not continue to suck. I'd drop Mike Tolbert for Torain in a heartbeat right meow.
