    Any Week 17 Championships Out there?

    Yep, right there with you OP. In the championship game this weekend, and while I was resistant to it at first it has grown on me. We had been a 16-week league until this year & decided to try it. What stands out to me is just like every playoff season - it's about the players on the A-...

    wannabee Strategy Thread

    Hey Jeff, Good problems to have, I know, but I could use your input on these players I keep flip-flopping on: Standard scorinng (no-ppr) Must start 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1 Flex, etc. Start 1 QB: Foles v. decent Bears secondary Cutler v. softer Eagles secondary Dalton v swiss cheese Vikings...

    Prior stats or tackle opportunities? (new IDP-er here)

    First time IDP player :shrug: , and we are pretty simple in only starting 1 IDP from any position. Our scoring system seems to benefit the high-tackle Inside LBs (see below), so I've been focused there. Drafted Keuchly from cheat sheets and just plugged him in without much thought. So now...

    Hey Jeff - major waffling here on some B-/C+ players. I'd love your insights. 12-team, 1pt-PPR league. At the RB/WR spots, I'm pretty well locked into these guys - RB1 Wells, WR1 Wallace & WR2 Bowe. Now the wafflers.. I have 1 RB spot and 1 flex spot open, so I can take 2 of these (1...

    NFL admits two blown calls in CIN-PIT game

    I don't personally buy into conspiracy theories like that. Mostly because I don't believe people (officials) can think that in-depth on the fly during live game action. But if, and I mean it's a huge "IF", the league does have a preference for the Steeler organization, can you really blame...

    I'm officially starting Kyle Orton over ? as my every week starter

    :thumbup: Does it surprise anyone that the Jets are merely middle-of-the-road against the pass? (17th) Hype is messing with you if you sit Orton based on matchup. Don't buy the hype, check the facts & start Orton with confidence.

    wannabee Strategy Thread

    which QB this week? My Gut - Big Ben at Patriots, (assuming PIT will have to score a lot to win) or My Head - Brees at Falcons, (Mon night shootout?) They are both hot right now, and I know Brees has an "easier" matchup for whatever that means in terms of FF points. But I can't seem to...

    I'm starting _______ over Pittsburgh D this week

    I am starting Steelers D with confidence. Expecting a performance somewhere between the MNF moshpit and the last matchup with Cinci.

    Defenses to target

    I posted this in another thread, but here's how I'm handling the Steeler's DST schedule in tandem with the Bengals D: week 13 - Steelers D vs. Cincy week 14 - Cincy D vs. STL week 15 - tossup, either Steelers vs. JAX, or Cincy @ SF week 16 - Steelers at STL 2 weeks against the Rams...

    wannabee Strategy Thread

    All good points - Frerotte wasn't horrible in relief last week and seemed to look for Bruce last week as well. I think I may go with Bruce, since I already have Big Ben going in that Steeler-Cincy game, and would hate to have another mudfest with both he and Miller going. Rolling with Bruce...

    wannabee Strategy Thread

    Jeff, thank you for all your help on these questions. it's a great service to others. I have a quick gut-check here for a flex spot. TD-only scoring league Heath Miller vs. Cincy (6 tds to date, muddy field again) Ike Bruce vs. ATL (2 tds to date, but both in the past 3 weeks) what's...

    Steelers Defense owners

    I picked up the Bengals Def yesterday, to be used in week 14. I'll stick with my Steelers def for this week in the mud, but here's my plan for using a 2 team tandem (assuming I remain in the playoffs that is) week 13 - Steelers D at home vs. CIN week 14 - Cincy D at home vs. STL week 15 -...

    Anyone still starting Chester Taylor?

    Yes, I'm trying to evaluate whether to stick with Chester this week 13, but this is not a WDIS. I'm interested in seeing what RBs you might be starting Chester over this week, and why you still think Taylor makes a good start.

    **Discuss Field Conditions in Pittsburgh Here**

    interestingly enough, that helicopter (or a few of them) would be a great way to dry out the field. :blackdot:
