    I wouldn't start Jacobs until he shows me something. Of the other two choices, it's pretty tight. They are both #1 WR on thier team right now. I guess I'd go with Holmes but it's a close one.

    Matt Leinart vs STL or Derek Anderson vs NE
    The only reason im asking is because Leinarts time might be slated with Warner and that would hurt his production drastically. Also, the Pats scare the hell out of me so im not sure what ill get from Anderson.
    Thanks.

    Schaub vs. Miami
    Brees vs. Carolina

    They're projected to put up the same number of points in my league. Somebody in my league actually dropped Brees last week. I figured he'd be a decent upgrade over Alex Smith, so I picked him up. Now I'm not so sure I have the guts to start him with how he's been playing. Schaub has been pretty decent...

    I'm almost tempted to start Ward and Jacobs this week (I've got them both). :sad:

    But seriously, Jacobs will likely not have many carries just coming back from the injury. Holmes has been pretty good for me this year, I'd go with him, especially with Hines Ward being banged up.

    It looks like Andre Johnson will be out agian, so I would go with Brees.. I think that he's due for a big game

    Leinart. He gets pulled when he isn't getting the job done. Anyone can get the job done against StL.

    Would it be wise to start Nate Burelson as my third receiver, or bryant johnson? Also, Kurt Warner vs. CAR or Derek Anderson vs. MIA

    Guys...I am really hurting at rb this year. I have Frank Gore on a bye this week, Jones-Drew, Michael Turner (doesnt do me very good) and.Brian Leonard.(plays the Ravens D this week)..In my league I have a Flex option as well. Which two backs do i go with.

    At Wr I have both ron curry and Jerry Porter of Oakland (waiting to trade one of them) Colston and Fitzgerald. Do i go with Porter or curry as a flex this week?

    Start MJD and Leonard.

    As for the Porter vs. Curry dilemma, can't really help you there. They are totally equal. Who would Culpepper like more? Hard to say. I guess go with Curry cuz he's the possession guy and they won't want to take risks.

    OK, i need a by-week filler at RB,

    Morency (Was)
    DeAngelo (@Ari) or
    Norwood (NYG)

    on another League, PPR, my #1 RB is Edge right now, but who do i start as #2
    Maroney (@Dal) or
    Rudi (@KC)
    this might be more a problem, of who is healtier instead of who has the best matchup.

    on the same league, i need a by-week filler at WR.

    Greg Jennings (Wash)
    Bernard Berrian (Mia) or
    Vincent Jackson (Oak)

    and who should i start at my R/W-Flex position, of those who are left?

    Morency.

    Yeah, check the inactives before the game and start whichever is playing. You might want to line someone up in case neither can play.

    I'd go with Berrian. Jackson is unreliable and Jennings in injured.

    For your flex, it looks like all you have left is Vincent Jackson.

    Drew is heating up with no end in sight...start him.

    Turner may very well put up more numbers as SD appears to be going with more of a RBBC than

    Leonard on a terrible O against the ravens, the only upside is his pass catching ability which could give you 60-80 yards, especially with Ferotte at QB.

    there is an absolute correlation between QB and WR in Oaktown:

    Culpepper=go with Porter
    McCown=go with Curry
