Could it be that (1) fantasy owners that have advanced this far probably have superior depth at each position and (2) those owners are going to think even harder than usual about who they should start, given that it may determine whether they win a championship?

The only reason you wouldn't play Driver is if you have two other top 10 WR's on your roster.Driver is a must start.

9/99 yards = 18.9.....just slightly triple your projections. Looks like Salmonstud wins again. I look forward to seeing your new signature in bold blue or red letters...I'll let you choose.H.K. said:

Not everyone does PPR. 99 yards was nice, but in my league it was 9 pts. One more yard, would have netted me 12 pts (2 pt bonus for 100+ yards) Here is hoping his stat line gets changed somehow!!! LOL

PPR leagues may have loved his performance but those of us not in PPRs got 9.9 or in my case, 9. Was really expecting a TD.

He did great by me (yes I am in a PPR league). Especially considering my opponent started Favre as one of his QBs (our flex can be a 2nd QB). So my WR scored 14.4 to his QB scoring 8.2 -- I am thrilled.
Unfortunately my opponent's RBs are LJ, Steven Jackson and Marion Barber so I'm probably going to get killed anyway.

How many other catches did he have that were called back due to a GB penalty or a MIN holding penalty? I remember seeing at least 2. I am specifically avoiding the play-by-play on NFL.com. Too painful to look at.Where's that HK guy? Time to eat some crow, DD hater.Not everyone does PPR. 99 yards was nice, but in my league it was 9 pts.

If you've been a DD hater this year, it hasn't worked out too well for you. Driver has had a great year. His TD numbers aren't awesome, but recs and yards are getting up there... both career highs, I think.
Looking at Driver in dynasty and keeper leagues is tricky though.

Can I put it in green for the Packers? Even though he didn't score, I'll take the 18.9.9/99 yards = 18.9.....just slightly triple your projections. Looks like Salmonstud wins again. I look forward to seeing your new signature in bold blue or red letters...I'll let you choose.
FYI - I'll change my sig on Tuesday after this week's games.

Very impressed with Driver last night, especially in my PPR league.
He was playing hurt and I thought he was gone for good in the 3rd when he went to the locker room, but I hoped he would come back (as he did) for Favre and his possible last game @ Lambeau.
GDB Aaron Rogers throwing to him next year though.

Well, put me in the club that's content with Driver's performance last night but FRUSTRATED that 1 more yard would have given me the 100yd bonus in my league.
My favorite part (
) was when I clicked back to the game in the 4th and Gumbel announced that Driver caught the long pass from Favre down to the Minny 27. Then the WR stood up and Gumbel says, "Ruvell Martin!"
Yeah, that was fun!

If it weren't for the Vikings constantly getting called for Defensive penalties, Driver would've had another 2 receptions for approx another 15 yards.

I know. That pissed me off. It seemed like they were getting called on every other play.If it weren't for the Vikings constantly getting called for Defensive penalties, Driver would've had another 2 receptions for approx another 15 yards.

What's up with this thread? Why is Driver getting so much attention this week. He had a good week -- 'nuff said.
