Last week his fantasy points were -4 whereas quincy and david carr scored 20+

That was a fluke. Play the percentages. Tom Brady was a killer fantasy player the last two years.

As for Wide receivers play Owens and Johnson... The only questionmark there is Johnson, but with them playing Carolina it should be a safe bet.

Your running backs, play Barber and Dunn... because they are better.

mavsfanforever · 09-13-2003, 04:46 PM

Thanks ark and u2

here is my lineup

QB: TOM BRADY
RB: TIKI, DUNN
WR: OWENS, KEYSHAWN JOHNSON
TE : SHANNON, SHARPE
DEF: NO

SUB: ANDRE JOHNSON

Brady is playing a great eagle d. And a hungry eagles team. Carr is a potential allpro at some point in his career and new orleans sometimes gets boared and don't beat the teams they are supposed to beat. Id play Carr.

Terell Owens is the best wideout in the game enough said. Normally Keyshawns not a good fantasy wideout just because he doesn't get in the endzone a lot, I have a feeling he will this week.

I wouldn't play dunn because falcons don't play him a lot and he will be facing eight men in the box with doug johnson at qb . Note over half of atlantas rushing yards were via vick. Emmit while old can still be a productive second back. And of course tiki at home against the cowboys enough said. Last year the giants blew the cowboys out 37-7.

Too bad the wrong Jamal was on your list MFF [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

mavsfanforever · 09-14-2003, 09:46 PM

Actually I won my matchup already and I still have Tiki Barber to play tomorrow.

Luckily I did not play the person who had Jamal. Jamal scored like 64 fantasy points.

Drbio · 09-15-2003, 08:23 AM

That Brady pick is genius now huh?

mavsfanforever · 09-15-2003, 09:23 AM

Yep. Brady had 32 fantasy points. he was instrumental in my victory.

What about Quincy? Now I have a good tradeable asset to get some depth in my running back position. I have 13 days to trade him though.

You know for a minute there I thought you had the Raven's Jamal lol.

mavsfanforever · 09-19-2003, 12:05 AM

Just got Ahman Green for Quincy. Cannot believe this. Just love the homers.

Fah Q · 09-19-2003, 12:12 AM

Whoever made that trade is an idiot.
What did they have at QB before the trade?

mavsfanforever · 09-19-2003, 12:16 AM

Brad, Johnson
Kordell Stewert

Fah Q · 09-19-2003, 12:17 AM

what did he have a RB?

mavsfanforever · 09-19-2003, 12:24 AM

Davenport,Najeh
Pittman,Michael
Williams,Moe
Thomas,Anthony
Ahman Green

I also gave emmitt with quincy for Ahman.

Fah Q · 09-19-2003, 12:25 AM

yup, that guy is really an idiot. You just pulled off a great deal my friend.

Big Boy Laroux · 09-19-2003, 07:51 AM

oh my god i wish i had a guy like that in my league... someone tht i could fleece... geez!

on the note of advice, though...

i pretty locked on all my starters this week, except my WR/RB flex position.

should I go with

Eddie George (against NO)
or
Darrell Jackson (against STL)

the titans don't use george as much if they get down early... jackson had a great game last week, but that was with koren robinson out of the lineup.

any advice?

Drbio · 09-19-2003, 08:19 AM

I'd still go with George.

Big Boy Laroux · 09-19-2003, 08:33 AM

yeah, it's hard to start a WR over a RB, cause RBs are guaranteed to touch the ball... but the titans have just not looked good running the ball lately. if they get down, they put in robert holcombe (better receiver out of the backfield).

Drbio · 09-19-2003, 08:42 AM

Always always always start a RB over a WR, unless you are dealing with superstars (Ex. Kevin Faulk vs Terrell Owens).

Big Boy Laroux · 09-19-2003, 09:20 AM

yeah, i know. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] but the titans are just so damn frustrating lately.

Big Boy Laroux · 09-19-2003, 03:06 PM

totally forgot mcnair is nursing that hurt finger. titans may try to run a lot this week.

that just cements the decision. eddie it is.

And this trade actually approved by your league without the commisioner vetoed it? You must be playing with a bunch of rookies. I tried to offered C. garner and Amani Toomer for A. green in my league and the guy said "HELL NO".

Big Boy Laroux · 09-19-2003, 03:47 PM

yeah, that trade may be one of the most lopsided in Fantasy football history. definitely a league of rookies and homers.

u2sarajevo · 09-19-2003, 04:04 PM

Heck.. the league I'm in I tried to trade Erik Parker and Michael Pittman for Priest Holmes. I did this in jest, and the guy accepted!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

The commisioner not only vetoed it, he locked my account.

No warning or anything.

It sucked.

Ummmmm Ok · 09-19-2003, 04:44 PM

I had Anquan Boldin and just traded him for Garrison Hearst/James Thrash. No way in Hell a Rookie on The Arizona squad is going to constantly put up numbers like that week in and week out when he starts getting double covered, so I traded when he was high. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

But damn, I can't get past that Green for Quincy trade. *in total shock*

I had to include emmitt with qcarr. This guy has games each week and is showing some signs of frustration and he lost the games bcos he started Kordell Stewart. Emmitt will get him 6-10 points each game and quincy will give him 15-20 points each game. Ahman Green will also do the same get you between 15-20 points.

mavsfanforever · 09-19-2003, 08:50 PM

I am having problem deciding on my defense this week.

I have NO - vs tenessee.
and Raiders- vs broncos.

Dude.... Raiders. No doubt about it.

Book it.

Fah Q · 09-19-2003, 09:59 PM

Raiders, Plummer will keep getting picked off.

Big Boy Laroux · 09-22-2003, 08:51 AM

man, as it turns out, i should have been debating whether or not to start darrell jackson over deuce mcallister... i started eddie, and he had a good game. deuce was non-existent.

mavsfanforever · 09-23-2003, 08:39 PM

If you have deuce mcallistor, you have to start him. He cannot be cold entire season. One of these days he will explode for 3 td 200 yards.

I guess I was proved wrong on that one

mavsfanforever · 09-23-2003, 08:56 PM

It did not matter Fahq. The guy I played against had Clinton Portis, Rich Gannon, Curtis Martin. I won by a good margin.

I guess so, but on most weeks I would be pretty afraid of those 3.

You are right. That is the very reason I was scared till the end. I was hoping they do not put Clinton Portis back and then I was hoping Rich Gannon does not engineer a comeback.

Anyway things fell into place by luck.

Looking at next week, I think Troy Hambrick may be a good pick as a backup RB.

i know. i start deuce every week, and will continue to do so.

i was just saying, as it turned out, i would have been better off starting jackson instead of deuce, which i didn't even remotely consider doing.
