I trust you guys more than the big sites and the playoffs start today: Thigpen @ oak Big ben @ New England Sage vs. Jax Any advice would be appreciated. Leaning towards ben because of how all the above defenses have faired recently.
Go with Ben -- yeah Thigpen may go off again, but it's just not worth the risk. Check the weather up there that could be a factor for passing -- it's been nasty up in the north east.
I have big ben and tyler on my team as well - i went with big ben in NE - the pats can shut down a rushing attack (and a feeble willie parker no less) so big ben will be forced to the air... tyler is going against a solid OAK secondary that has shut down better QBs in the past (see Cutler last week)
I know I'm a little late, but I have both these guys. I just picked up Thigpen. Over the last four or five weeks he has the best scoring average in my league. Ben has been inconsistent and I can't count on him. Thigpen may be worth the gamble. Oakland did shut down Cutler but they haven't exactly been Team Consistent either.
Well, thanks for the suggestions... I went with my gut (and the consensous) and chose Ben. However, the conditions are AWFUL in NE right now... and as I'm typing this, Ben throws a pick (non-weather related, however). What will be interesting is that Sage likely ends up having the best week of all three...
i need advice asap its playoffs time and im in a pretty deep money league. i need help deciding who to start as my 2nd rb. Sammy Morris @ SEA Justin Fargas @ SD tonight Maurice Morris vs NE (he's starting ahead of julius jones)
