Unfortunately, that is probably the best we will hear before inactives are posted.

Anywhere from 45-60 minutes before gametime. Gametime is 1230pm est.

There are several locals here, so if there is something heard before then, it will be posted here.

I have CJ in one league, my gut tells me that he is going to play. I do not have any scientific data to back that up though.

Although my gut also told me to draft CJ early second.

 

[KCC]

This is purely my opinion, but even if he starts (and that's unknown) he might be limited in his play and could not be on the field for the entire game. If you have other starting options, I would use them.

My gut agrees with yours. He's sat all week because it's a short week and he needed the time to heal. Oh, and my gut also told me to draft him early...

Fox 2 Detroit pre game show is reporting Calvin will play and also Stafford looks like he will also give it a go and play.

 

[packersfan]

John Niyo just tweeted that Johnson and Stafford are both playing.

 

[towney]

Also read that Woodson will be covering CJ.

 

[Marion Blitz]

They are coming in now...per NFL Network, according to another post, Stafford to play...bodes well for CJ....

 

[BobbyLayne]

Whoa.As if we could be any more impressed after what he did 4 days ago.

He will increase his legend 10 fold if he can get the upset victoryGodspeed, Stafford

 

[packersfan]

It's official. Here are the Lions' inactives:

Inactives: Stanton (3rd QB), D. Williams, Pearson, Sims, Fowler, Salaam, D. White

Will we get an update for Calvin in the FBG projections before game time??

 

[kingmalaki]

So who has the guts to play him? I remember his last injured game. I may roll with Snelling.

 

[Project Mayhem]

The real question is, do you start Calvin now?

 

[ScottyFargo]

Green Bay D reeling, could be Lions chance to go for blood

 

[DepthCharts]

Just put Crabtree back on bench. Since he's in uniform, he's mega ready.

 

[Kwai Chang Caine]

I am. I can play him or Driver. I need upside based on my opponent's lineup.

 

[720tail]

I am sitting him in my 10 team (non TE required) keeper league...

But I have Snelling, Ray Rice, Forsett, Andre Johnson, Randy Moss, Sidney Rice and Dallas Clark (along with Calvin) to fill my 5 starting RB/WR positions, so I am really not forced to start him...

 

[Sup_Yo]

The real question is, do you start Calvin now?

I think I'm going to sit Garcon for CJ.

 

[5-ish Finkle]

Absolutely starting him now, but not like my other options were that fantastic.

 

[packersfan]

The real question is, do you start Calvin now?

He starts for me always. He's torn the Packers up in previous meetings and he's simply far too talented to sit on my bench. It could blow up in my face but he's an elite player and I always start my elite players.

same boat here

 

[treat88]

CJ in over Santana Moss.

 

[Sylira21]

Putting Megatron in over Smith (NYG)

i agree with this. i have s. smith (nyg) on my bench. the safe play would be to start him. the homerun play would be to start CJ. if you need the homerun because or your matchups with other players, then you start CJ.

 

[BlueBandit24]

Megatron in over Nicks and Chambers. Not great options, but I don't have the stones to sit CJ if he plays.

 

[Cookiemonster]

Over Hines Ward.

 

[3MTA3]

Hmmm, I have Santonio in for him...wondering if I should swap.

 

[5-ish Finkle]

Ravens' secondary is banged up too, FWIW. I could at least see some logic to going with Santonio if you REALLY had misgivings.I'd probably start Calvin anyway, but I could see an argument for Holmes at least.

Well, I can't afford to get a zero from Johnson, just in case he tweaks something...I'm going for high points in the league which wins all of the transactions fees.

 

[dwyadog]

putting him in over msw, screw it, need someone to watch today!

 

[Mozeta]

I think I'll start CJ over Kevin Smith and Jerricho Cotchery.

 

[Marion Blitz]

You don't play unless you can play...never bench your studs!!!

 

[thatguy]

CJ in over Santana Moss.

Ditto.

 

[Lascelle]

I'm thin at receiver in all my leagues.

Starting Megatron in place of Jerricho Cotchery, Pierre Garcon and Steve Smith {NYG} (that's who he's replacing on my 3 teams).

 

[gradyholt]

not sure what to do.

right now, have colston and s. smith (car) going....although smith's matchup is awful.

can't afford a 0 from CJ.

 

[facook]

UGH. Hurting Megatron over Driver, VJax, or MSW? Right now have him in over Driver, but it's a toughie.

 

[Tom Servo]

Megatron in over Nicks and Chambers. Not great options, but I don't have the stones to sit CJ if he plays.

If I don't play CJ, then I'd have to choose between Pitt's Mike Wallace & Brandon Pettigrew.I'm playing my rival and going for 11-1; therefore CJ plays.

 

[playsccr]

berrien or CJ??

 

[David Dodds]

<br />Will we get an update for Calvin in the FBG projections before game time??<br />

<br /><br /><br />working on it now

 

[steelerfan1]

i need 2 of boldin, driver and calvin.

on the fence about taking the homerun swing.

 

[Kwai Chang Caine]

UGH. Hurting Megatron over Driver, VJax, or MSW? Right now have him in over Driver, but it's a toughie.

Same situation. I'm playing him with MSW over Driver against the highest scoring team in my league. I'm swinging for the fences.

 

[boxers]

didn't realize this was a WDIS thread

 

[The Kansas Comet]

My other options are Wallace or James Jones - going with Calvin and hoping I have one more thing to be thankful for after the game.
