I'm starting ____________ over Calvin Johnson (1 Viewer)

[Jello_Biafra]

Calvin has undoubtedly hit a low point, but against Jacksonville, he should at least match Moore's numbers, and his ceiling is higher.

Calvin's ceiling is probably around 250 yards and 3 TD's. What's D Moore's ceiling?

I wasn't disagreeing with his post. I was supporting it.

Gotcha.

Calvin sits out practice but expected to play:

I personally think anyone who is saying they are going to bench Calvin is full of ####.

If you are ever thinking of benching Calvin you should trade him. I own Nicks, Mike Williams, Decker and can't see benching Calvin. Don't have my head in the sand - there are issues. But I think Stafford gets confidence from last week and teams have to respect other options more. Too big a talent in a very good offense to bench. This isn't like Fitz in AZ

Not only that, but a couple things... One is that it's the Jags D, end of story. Two, Megatron has yet to put up three bad games in a row this year. I expect him to get over 120 yards receiving, 2 TD's.

He was yet to put up 2 bad games (under 10 pts) in a row this year until last week as well...

I did the same and won my game because of it. The Wayne owner had put him on the block and I decided to trade for him.

Like you said, it's easier putting in Wayne than other WRs. I also had Steve Smith and Brian Hartline but wasn't ready to play either of them ahead of Calvin yet...

I also had Steve Smith and Brian Hartline

Hartline over Calvin? C'mon. Even if Calvin lost both legs and both arms I'd still start him over Hartline.

I said I wouldn't start Hartline over Calvin. I started Victor Cruz and Reggie Wayne. Calvin would be my #3, ahead of Smith, Hartline, and Cecil Shorts...

You know what, I hope they sit him for an extra week of rest. That way I am forced to start Marshall/Moore (lolz), and it would probably be better for him in the future.

You know what? I hope he plays and torches Jacksonville. Then the next week he torches that team. Then the next week he torchest that team. Then the next week he torches that team. And so on.

D. Moore had a shot at a TD 3 different times last week. Palmer is locked in.

Calvin had 1,892 yards receiving and 18 TD's last year in 17 games played (including playoff game).

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

Have Johnson, Harvin, Wayne and Floyd. Starting the first 3 in my 2 WR positions and Flex. If my RB situation weren't so terrible, maybe I'd think of putting an RB in flex and going Harvin and Wayne, but I still doubt it. It is really bizarre and frustrating to look down at a 0/0 stat line in the 3rd quarter, but as others have said, the overall pace is still there, so just gotta be patient.

crazy stat of the day. Heard on nfl am that this year the Lions have scored more points in the 4th quarter than in all the other three combined. not for the faint of heart...

Listen, I love Moore and think he'll be a true WR1 soon, but if we're talking ceiling, no-one has a higher one than Calvin.
