anyone local please advise!!!

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

How bad we talking here?

 

[ROCKET]

Not a local but from all I've seen they are expecting rain and 25 mph+ winds all day. I am leaning on benching Blackmon for TY Hilton in a dome. I really want to start JB but this sounds like a brutal recipe for passing.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Shorts could be a good play maybe with his yac.

 

[tombonneau]

Rain and snow usually favors the offense how knows where they are going. High winds is the worry. I've no better option than Shorts so hopefully he can take a quick hitch to the house but I'm not expecting one of his deep balls today.

what about spiller?

 

[Franknbeans]

Anyone making any lineup alterations based on the latest forecast?

 

[Twenty-Four Eighty-Four]

I live about 15 minutes from Ralph Wilson Stadium. The rain is coming down, not a monsoon or anything. The wind is no where near where predicted yet.

I was about to bench Spiller for Ridley, however I think Spiller will be much better in the short passing game. I get 1pt per rec.

 

[Chicago Hooligan]

Currently I have Steve Johnson starting over Bowe and Boldin. Hmm.

Also I am experiencing flashbacks to losing a playoff game because I started DeSean Jackson in high winds instead of Chad Johnson.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

How has Henne done in past rains and wind. You'd think he'd have some experience in this weather.

 

[packseasontix]

This worries me need this game to lock up the #1 spot in the league for next week. Johnson and Blackmon are both possible plays but its a gamble if the wind picks up too much.

 

[Darryl Talley]

Is it usually that windy on the playing field though?

Benching Johnson for Broyles.

 

[Kwai Chang Caine]

Reece over Shorts. Hate sitting Shorts, he's been hot.

Ditto but I am sitting him for Broyles

sitting Blackmon for Broyles at my flex.

You guys will want to avoid the inevitable Shorts thread bump when he takes a quick slant 70 yards.

 

[frae]

Trying to decide if I want to risk playing Stevie Johnson or not. This looked like a very good matchup, but now I am just very worried that the wind will turn it into something ugly.

Anyone starting Justin Blackmon with confidence? Bueller?

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

How bad is the wind though? Gusts at 20mph or are gusts supposedly higher?

Against the Bill's def? Someone should. With these defenses, I think there will be quite a few studly fantasy days in this unheralded match up. The only thing that makes me wary is a quick exit if the practice injuries flare up for the Jags receivers.Go Jags!

Fitzpatrick's weak arm has me second-guessing. I'm putting in Bowe/hating myself.

Yeah I went with Leshoure, in my PPR league I would usually go with Stevie, but the wind has tipped the scales for me.

You didn't hear me tell you this - you can't play Bowe. Quinn is terrible. Me thinks Johnson will be okay in the weather.

That one report says gusts up to 40. May bench shorts for maclin ....

 

[Squintz82]

Anyone else sitting Shorts because of the weather? I have Forte or Bush that I can start at flex, but I don't like either this week.

 

[Tony Jabroni]

#### it. Starting Blackmon over M Floyd in my flex. Yes, I know you don't care, but some folks may have a similiar decision. 21pts a game with Henne at the helm.

 

[Daywalker]

Damm. Stick with Blackmon or go with Antonio Brown? 2 minutes.

Decided to roll with Blackmon over TY Hilton in one league and benched him for Broyles in another. Let's hope he breaks one.

I'm rolling with Blackmon over T.Y. Hilton as well. It could go either way for us.. Good luck!

Possibly. I went with Reece over Shorts as well. Tough call, but Reece has been just as hot (PPR) as Shorts and if you follow the even odd thing at all, Shorts is due for a less than stellar game and Reece is due for a stellar one. Honestly, in PPR it is a coin flip. Shorts is a better bet for a TD, but Reece is a better bet for total yards. Receptions is probably similar. Since TDs are much harder to predict, I went with Reece, especially with McFadden unlikely to play.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

I went shorts and regret it already. Weather looks real bad. Can't believe nobody local gave the full story. Can only tell so much from reports.

I would've but I didn't get home until after 1 PM and figured all of your lineups were already set. I'm about 20 mins north of the stadium and it's been a pretty steady downpour since like 12:30.

Weather can't stop a stud.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Never mind!

Hope he's good to go after getting his bell rung. What a phenomenal run the last 7 weeks!
