CavalierEternal: Browns over Steelers, I'm callin' it.

I don't know, I think they are gonna get raped.

10min_game_misconduct: I need a couple fantasy opinions myself.

1. Would you drop L. McCoy for Donald Brown (non ppr)

2. Who to start Sims-Walker or Kevin Walter (ppr)

The reason I'm considering Walter is vs Cinci the 2nd receivers are seeming to have very nice days. Were that to continue he could have a great day.

Anyone?

FreakinB: milkandcheese: FreakinB: GIANTS!!

Also, fantasy football question: Big Ben against the Browns or Matt Schaub against Cincy?

Big Ben cause Browns suck

Yeah I know, but Cinci hasn't been good against the pass and the Texans have been an air show. Hence my dilemma.

As we said before, don't think I can go wrong either way.

true but i think Cinci are the real deal and well the Browns are just sad, sorry Brownie fans

1) Yes

2) I love Sims-Walker, he's probably Jax's #1 receiver at this point. His last-minute suspension killed me last week.

I have a bad feeling about the Bears game today. Atlanta is a bad matchup for them. I think the Bears will make a game of it, but will lose it late.

Lost Thought 00: Over-Under 35 for lowest passer rating (min 10 attempts) today?

Is JaMarcus playing? UNDER.

Well, umm, uh. How long do we have before kickoff? I'll be right back.

Story on ESPN about how Adrian Peterson has a shoe collection he has spent about $200K on.

Hmm, wonder why so many athletes end up broke.

Not after their QB leaves the game with a broken collar bone.

I need to start three of these five receivers:

Housh
Mason
Roddy
Devery Henderson
Braylon

My thought is Braylon (Buf), Housh (Ari), and White (Chi). Playing a New Orleans receiver is such a feast or famine proposition these days.

Also, do I put in Thomas Jones (Buf) for an injured, time-sharing Westbrook?

RminusQ		2009-10-18 12:20:20 PM

milkandcheese, for a moment I thought that was going to be an anti-dairy poster from PETA.

nudave		2009-10-18 12:21:54 PM

Farking NFL TV rules. I'm a Giants' fan in DC. The Skins are on CBS, and Fox is showing... Seinfeld reruns! Two undefeated teams, one of whom is an NFC east rival of the Redskins, are battling in the game of the week, and I get farking Seinfeld reruns.

Anyone ever been to 51st State in Foggy Bottom? I'm thinking of heading down there to watch the Giants remain undefeated.

Ponzholio		2009-10-18 12:21:55 PM

Well, if the Chiefs don't beat the Redskins... Lookout Detroit, only 3 more possible chances to avoid an O'fer season (at Raiders, Buffalo, Cleveland).

I just wandered back and saw people have no clue what I was talking about so thanks for posting it. :D

Lost Thought 00		2009-10-18 12:23:00 PM

Mendenhal to start, Parker to play in relief. It appears that Parker officially lost the starting job, until further notice.

Yeah, it kind of farked the entire game. Hopefully from now on he'll keep it in his pants the night before a game.

/that better have been some darn good pootang, Mike.

good thoughts - not i would NOT sit westbrook - you didnt draft him in the first/second round to sit him.

your receiver choices are good, the only thing i might change would be if your opponent has one of your receivers QB, you can (potentially) negate his QB with your WR.

Ok my fanstast dilemma
Bears d vs falcons in a dome
pats d vs titans in cold, windy lots of rain

im leaning toward bears, their opponent is better And they are on the road. but you rarely see special teams excell in rainy nasty conditions, right? And the titans are likely to run a lot, meaning less chances for sack/intercepts/defensive points?

anyone agree/disagree?

Good wings, tuesday nights they're 10c each. I drank too much last night or I'd be tempted to walk on down there.

The reward for last week's epic choke? A road game against division-leading Cincinnati!

Let's hope Cincy's wins were just an illusion.

jake_lex		2009-10-18 12:30:41 PM

This DirectTV commercial that they show over and over is probably the longest I've ever listened to anything by the Black Eyed Peas.

Do all their songs suck as much as this one?

Pats D, no question whatsoever.

Bubblegum Tate		2009-10-18 12:32:20 PM

Ok, so my 3rd receiver slot. Should I start Mario Manningham against the Saints or Eddie Royal against the Chargers? I feel like Royal is starting to come around this season, but I'm not sure about the matchup. Or I start them both and bench Santonio Holmes. Thoughts?

I would say Pats d will score you more pts. Windy and rain isn't a bad thing for the defense, it does hurt SpT but I think the upside is better. Falcons will air it out and looking at more of a shootout.

Royal, he started to break out last week, and the chargers secondary is pitiful.

The "series of questions as headline" thing is getting annoying. C'mon, subbies. We can do better than that.

Anyway. Cowboys on a bye so.... Go Saints.

Yea, I was leaning towards Royal. Should I just bench Holmes for Manningham? After that opening game, Holmes hasn't really done much. It seems like Big Ben is going to Ward and Wallace a lot more now.

How is Oakland below Kansas City in the CBS power rankings?

I get that watching the Raiders is about like watching the Three Stooges, but they did manage to beat the Chiefs, didn't they? Maybe I imagined that.

Cincy is for real. The Browns are a college team. Big Ben no contest.

I think at this point in the season, the Chiefs definitely look better than the Raiders. The Chiefs look like, if the other team plays badly and they catch some breaks, they could win a game. The Raiders seem unsure exactly how this whole "football" thing is supposed to work.

Morning, football Farkers!

Good news: FOOTBALL

Bad news: Not getting the steelers game

Good news: Getting the Giants/Saints clash!

Bad news: Also getting the Favrings/Favrens game

My dilemmas today:

Torry Holt or Chris Chambers?
Chris Johnson or Derrick Ward?
Clinton Portis or Darren Sproles?
Take a lortab for my hangover or just deal with it?

The real question is whether OSU could beat the Browns?

Probably not, but I think it'd still be interesting.
