Might as well get people on record

I know people always say start your studs, but weather definitely has an affect on performance.

The Browns /Bengals Game and the Giants /Bills Game both could be in bad weather.

I been tossing around Brandon Jacobs for Kolby Smith...Detroit is pretty soft against the run.

As of right now I am benching Graham (bengals kicker) for Stover (Ravens)

I may switch because of Ravens starting their third string qb.

 
Benching Anderson for Warner :IBTL:

Benching Jennings for Boldin :shark: Eat up another guppie...actually he's a very good fantasy owner w/ bad luck(Owens)

considering benching Graham for Hanson and Maybe Cotchery for Edwards...but I'm not sure my balls are that big this week. I just spent the day shopping with my wife and I'm pretty sure she still has them. So I'd have to ask for them back to make this move...you married guys feel me. I know it.

Benching S. Gaham for Longwell (in dome)

Potentially Benching K. Winslow for T. Gonzalez (Tony in dome against horrible Lions)

And may potentially bench L. Fitzgerald (injury concern) or B. Edwards (bad weather) for B. Engram.

Anyone think I am on to something or on something.

I considered the same move but for Patten. I'm waiting till tomorrow to see whats going on before I make up my mind but I think I'd rather lose with my studs then blow it on a whim.
 
Anyone know the weather for the Chicago vs. Greenbay game? Weather.com is showing 28 mph winds!

I also have Chris Henry, and my only replacement would be Stallworth. I think I will still just go with Henry and hope for another 51 yard lucky TD in the bad weather!

EDIT: Stallworth In, Henry Out. Keeping Jacobs in over Kolby Smith. Keeping Driver in since I have no one to replace him with.

Looks like the bad weather in In Cincy got me making a couple of adjustments.

Addai is getting benched for Jamala Lewis

Chad Johnson is getting beched for Greg Jennings.

both have been outscored by thier replacements for several weeks now anyway.

changes are done, but I still have almost 4 hours ... ugh

I would make all those changes.I have similar decisions with Fitz (injury), Edwards (weather) and may just go A. Gonzo and Cotchery.
 
Waiting to see how the wind situation shakes out in Cincy, but I'm this close to benching Derek Anderson for Vince Young for the 2nd week in a row. I'd love to play the ones who got me here, but don't want to blow it with a dumb decision.

I've already benched Driver for Kevin Curtis ... this wasn't a very painful decision though IMO.

 
I was going to bench chad johnson for Burress. then bench Burress, for Driver. But wait...then bench Driver for Braylon. Then I realized I've come full circle and am back a the cin-cle game. My WRs have carried my team all year, and the week I need them the most is when Mother Nature shows up.

 
Last week should have benched Brady for Warner, but went against my gut. Got lucky still won.

This week will bench Jennings for Shaun McDonald, high winds with wind chill near zero.

Going with my gut here, but I dont see a long game with the weather in Chicago.

 
I'm strongly considering benching __Favre___________ for __Cutler________, Due to bad weather... and maybe

I'm Benching ___Chad Johnson__________ for ___Anthony Gonzalez_______, Due to bad weather.

 
considering benching Palmer for T. Jackson right now, but i am going to look at waiver wire right now

also thinking about benching Edwards for Branch or Boldin,

Graham is already benched. all due to weather!!

 
anyone have any thoughts about Croyle against the Det 31st ranked pass D over Palmer? I have to recheck my stones I think......

 
Just a quick off shoot of the OP, in a bad weather game where you have multiple starters, do you consider sitting one to reduce your exposure to risk?

 
Ok, So i changed my lineup yet again.

I am still sitting Addai for Jamal Lewis. This has more to do with the fact that Lewis has outscored Addai the last five weeks and top that off with the nice matchup in Cincy.

I also swapped CJ & Jennings again, with CJ getting the start. With so so weather in both locations, I'm sticking with CJ. Maybe I'm going against the brain a little here since Jennings has outscored CJ each of the last 3 games. I love Jennings, but I'm gonna go with CJ getting more looks in a possible high scoring game.
