True but that was with a banged up Revis, They were pretty stout against Green Bay last week. But hey thanks for all the replies.Maybe because they rank 18th against the pass
Interesting. If anything, it's their offense that has hit the plateau. Their defense gave up 9 points, 3 off a bonehead punter's mistake, and 3 in garbage time.
But I do like the Lions' offense, just not this week so much.
Take the points. This smells like a trap bet.For all the reasons stated a couple posts above, Lions will give the Jets all they can handle.
Don't mean to turn this into a Burleson thread but FGB has him 57th this week? That seems extremely low. If Revis locks up on Megatron like Ryan says he will, Stafford could throw a ton to Burleson. Cromartie's a tough matchup but Burleson has quietly been getting a healthy number of targets each week. I could see him being a solid WR3 in PPR leagues this week.
i've been mystified by this all week long, so i'm with you. combined with this and the fact that the ranking for cutler vs. BUF is quite low, and i'm even more confused.
Actually, I'm starting Stafford over Roethlisberger and sitting Stafford for Eli in another league. Bengals @home vs Roethlisberger could potentially be bad for Roethlisberger. Bengals actually don't give out that many fantasy points. Brady and Ryan were the only ones to have good weeks against them but those were away games. Although, Roethlisberger is better than Flacco, Freeman, and Henne so he could have a good day. He just put up a stinker against them last year @CIN so I don't think he is a safe play and at least warranting thought considering Jets are a good real life defense but give up more points to fantasy quarterbacks than Cincinnati believe it or not. That's probably why Stafford is ranked higher than him. Prior to last week they were among the top 8 best fantasy matchups for QBs. However, because of last week against Rodgers, the Jets did boost their ranking quite a bit and are middle of the road. The Jets had the bye to prepare for the Packers and they don't have that luxury against the Lions. That and the fact that the Jets are a lot more lenient on the road should give Stafford enough of an edge to make him startable. I don't expect as big of a week as last one though. 250 yards, 2 TD, and 1 INT would be enough.
LoL. Gurus.... Lol... Gurus... Gurus????Lol...All seriousness... What are your other options?If you look at the SoS on their content webpage, you will see that the Jets have been a neutral matchup for QB's so far. They haven't been shutting down opposing QBs. SoS is a good tool just to see how many fantasy points defenses have actually been allowing. The Jets do not come in as a bad matchup for QBs so far this season. What are your other options?
Good info here.
interesting. i'm wrestling with stafford vs. cutler myself.
Same here (Stafford/Cutler/Fitz), and right now I have Stafford in.
yup. same here. last week was hard to ignore from stafford combined with cutler's lackluster play.
Ryan said earlier this week that Revis will match up most of the game on Calvin. “There’ll be times when he’s not, but he’ll generally be lined up on Calvin Johnson,” Ryan said.
He's top 5 at WR and is tied for Td's for Wr's in the NFL? You think that is disappointing?He's had young QB's, backup QB's, injuries, horrible surrounding talent since he's been in Detroit. This is by far the best team he's played with and even then, it's a team that will finish below .500.Try looking at the glass 1/2 full, it's not all doom and gloom in Detroit this year.The Jets are a tough matchup. There's no doubt and starting any Lion against them you risk a low fantasy score, there's no doubt. If you have great options, you may want to consider using them. Otherwise, you play your studs and you hope they come up big. Detroit is playing at home, they've played well there.I think you are underestimating Detroit. If Detroit only scores 13, the Jets won't be too far away from that point total. The game will be relatively close and the team that makes the least amount of mistakes will win.
this, i would think, is the conventional wisdom. however, stafford being ranked a 7 spots ahead of cutler in FBG rankings (granted only a point higher) though has me really confused. i probably SHOULD be starting cutler...but the FBG ranking is sticking with me and has all week.
Like clockwork each week.
Sad to say but yes again he went down.
Dont recall anyone messing with Dodds, I just didnt understand his rankings, never the less I had Stafford in my lineup and he came up big! I just hope he isnt out another six weeks since he reinjured his shoulder.
I drafted Stafford. He went down in week 1 so I traded for Romo and held on to Stafford. Then Romo went down, but it was OK cause I still had Stafford. 4 TDs last week, 3 more this week, and then he gets hurt again. I am down to Jon Kitna. Uh-oh.
What other moves did you make this year?
nice reply. Stafford getting hurt twice this year was relevant to the thread. Sorry you didn't feel that way.It's those type of snarky Cliff Klavin (correct spelling) type of comments that detract from what is otherwise a great fantasy football site.What other moves did you make this year?
