Is the weather effecting who are you starting? (1 Viewer)

[Soaring Eagle]

Is anyone avoiding their regular starters this week due to the weather conditions?

 

[Deuce'sWild]

Nope. My starters in bad weather are Brady, Moss and Edwards. I can't bench those guys. Just have to hope for the best.

I agree 100% I am playing Edwards and crossing my fingers!

 

[BIGGjohnny]

HELL YES. I am starting Kitna over Brady this week.......

35-45 mph wind gusts......

No thank You.

Not good. Chargers secondary is eating up QBs this year. Detriot may try to control the clock with KJ....Kitna will throw 3 picks today. Brady will get his...it might be on check downs to Welker all day, but he'll get his.

 

[GoBirds]

Winslow but really have no other option, i mean Billy Miller? Thats scary.

 

[CravenM]

Yep.

Dropped Phil Dawson and added Ryan Longwell - kicks in the breeze and snow is not good.

Yep.Dropped Phil Dawson and added Ryan Longwell - kicks in the breeze and snow is not good.

Now this is a smart move. Benching Brady?

I don't know, I'm in a quandry on starting Brady as I do have a decent option for replacing him. It's so hard benching someone who has performed at the level that he has, though.

 

[Shelomojo]

Well, I am benching B. Edwards for M. Colston, but that was a close call to begin with. If I didn't have a WR as good as Colston on my bench, I probably would have kept Edwards in. The conditions in Cleveland appear to be pretty bad.

 

[Deuce'sWild]

The Field in NE is covered with snow...so much for covering it before hand. They have freaking bulldozers on the field trying to clear it off....lol. What a mess.

Winslow and Cotchery owner in a PPR league. I'm gonna take my chances with both. The other options are Greg Olsen at TE - and I want nothing to do with the Bears with Orton at QB - and Clayton/Ted Ginn at WR and the weather is supposed to be bad in that game too. I can't see benching either of those guys for lesser talents even in bad weather.

 

[SeniorVBDStudent]

Benching Big Ben for Warner.

I know, I know...

It's been a bad year.

Benching Shockey for Miller due to both weather and general suckitude. Big Ben and Portis are my only bad weather guys @ this point (over T. Jackson & MJD)

Your toast..Hope your watching countdown...Horrid conditions...

Now this is a smart move. Benching Brady?

Yep..Benching him for Favre..

 

[CrazyHorse1581]

I'm going with Bulger over Big Ben and Edge over Hines Ward at my flex spot. This will probably bite me in the ###

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Snow and rain won't affect a passing game. The wind might though. But you can't bench brady.

 

[plinko]

Brady got his in similar (maybe stronger) winds in Baltimore a couple weeks ago

I am probably going to replace Gostkowski though. Need every point we can get.

 

[Buddy Ball 2K3]

Brady owner here...

Benched Welker as my flex and started Marion Barber

 

[rascal]

Debating if I should start Roddy White over Edwards and Stecker over FWP.

Looks like I've lost gates for this game as well. figures.

 

[Don't Noonan]

Brady got his in similar (maybe stronger) winds in Baltimore a couple weeks agoI am probably going to replace Gostkowski though. Need every point we can get.

I am seriously considering picking up Longwell and starting him over Gostkowski. Certainly seems like a safer play.

 

[trout]

I'm strongly considering benching Burress for Stecker....

 

[Witten Fanboy]

Looks like Dodds projections are now updated for weather.

 

[BustedKnuckles]

I'm strongly considering benching Burress for Stecker....

I`m pretty sure the storm will be over by tonite

 

[WildEyedOne]

Janikowski comes off my bench to play in place of Dawson today for sure

 

[rascal]

Looks like Dodds projections are now updated for weather.

how do you figure that. they look exactly the same.

 

[Deuce'sWild]

Snow and rain won't affect a passing game. The wind might though. But you can't bench brady.

How about the guys trying to catch a pigskin covered in WD40?

 

[siran808]

No way I'm benching Brady (but the weather makes me nervous), but I am benching Holmes for Gado (Chatman is out) - Am I ON CRACK FOR BENCHING HOLMES?

 

[trout]

thanks. I didn't realize that. but still...that's the thing. If i want to start stecker, I have to make that decision within the next hour.

 

[Beetle]

Another Gostkowski drop for Longwell...

 

[unckeyherb]

dropped gostkowski for Automattica.

 

[ManODaHour]

Just changed Garcia to McNabb and probably will change Galloway to Curtis. Probably not very significant differences between these players before the weather report, so not a difficult change for me.

Never ever bench Priest Holmes.

So far not so good.
