Ok, need your help again.

I have a few dilemas here in a must win game this week if I want to keep my playoff hopes alive. What do I do at the following three positions?

At QB do I start:
Rex Grossman against NYG
Philip Rivers against The Bengals
or
Jon Kitna against San Fran

At WR do I start:
Marty Booker against KC
Donald Driver against Minnesota
or
Joe Horn (if healthy) against Pitt
(I also have TJ Housh who I plan on playing against SD)

At TE do I start
Kellen Winslow against Atlanta
or
Desmond Clark against NYG

Re: Ok, need your help again.

Rivers against the Bengals seems like the best play. Cincy's D is down and Grossman has been terribly inconsistant as of late. Not sure about WR, but Winslow is questionable for the Falcons game, so I'd go with Clark there.

Nope...Rivers, Driver, and Winslow...10 catches last week for Winslow...I like his chaces over Clark any day...he was questionable last week as well...still caught 10...you can't play it safe and win...winning takes risk...

Nope, you're wrong. Taking risks is how I wind up with Joe Horn in my lineup last week. Plus I believe Winslow's been downgraded to doubtful. No way you should play him.

...Unless you have a sterling line-up, you gotta take risk...or you will be a 7-7 team at best...why play a TE who might get you 4 points, if you have one that can get you 10-15?...The risk is low cause it's your TE, the reward out weights the risk...

Fantasy Football is part football knowledge part math equation...If you can't take a flyer with a TE, you are playing waaaay too conservative to win...

Horn is a different animal....because a starting WR will normally gets you twice the TE points...so the risk is bigger...also Winslow has been questionable since the start of the season, and unlike a player like Cole his stats haven't gone downward...

Say it with me know Lefty..."The rewards out weigh the risk, play Winslow my good man"

Cool Re: Ok, need your help again.

Welcome to GoTeamsGo disgruntled Dolphins fan

I'm going against the herd at QB. I would start Kitna against SF. The Bengals have to have this game against the Chargers and the Chargers historically don't travel well to the East.

WR - Driver

TE - CLark against the Giants - Strahan is out and Berrian is out so Clark may get some serious action.

Re: Ok, need your help again.

I would still go with Desmond Clark, sometimes you need to be able to count on every point you can get, Clark has been explosive in some of these games so far. Winslow and CLark's numbers are almost identical, except for the fact Clark averages more yards per game then Winslow. Same #TD's. I would still go with Clark

Man you guys are all nuts...

Two of Clarks TDs came in a blow out against the 49ers...Winslow has twice as many catches just about, and more yards...Clark has had a game low on 12 yard this year...Winslow has I think 4 games over 7 catches...Grossman is struggling...

You gotta roll the die with my man Winslow...I suppose I stand alone...seeing as we have no one willing to roll the die for a big score...

Re: Ok, need your help again.

Even though Rex Grossman had a great performance in some games this year, I don't see him playing well against the (6-2) New York Giants.

Kellen Winslow will fight hard against the Atlanta defense, but I'm not sure how well he will do.

Michael Vick should do well, if he runs with both hands on the ball. Plus, did you check out his stats from that game when he only fudged seven passes.

Thank you!!! I'm touched that you're taking my advice but I must warn you that I finished second to last in 2005 and this year i'm taking off cuz life kicked my a**!! Good luck though and remember what Kitna did against a weak Jet defense...the Niner's D is worse!
