Tonights thursday Game.. (1 Viewer)

I think Ford is going to light it up and so will Tolbert. Has nothing to do with them starting on my fantasy teams.

 
Past meetings were right in the 24-21 range. I don't know why but I just have a feeling we are going to see a 35-32 type game.

Gotta love VJax and Gates tonight. On the Raiders side, I think the WR do well and Bush is a valuable asset in PPR.

Of course this will probably end 15-12 now. :bag:

 
Yah I think both QB's do well.

I think Bush, Tolbert and Mathews are worthy and healthy.

Vjax looks good, as does Ford I think..

Well see how they go, but I'm excited to check it out there. :)

 
I'm starting VJax and Novak. Novak is a kicker, so he doesn't really matter that much. VJax looks to be in line for a big game, but it's VJax, so who the hell knows. He could put up 10/150/2 or 2/15/0

Also starting Vjax and Novak in two leagues. Pretty confident both will put up good numbers.
 
I'm starting Bush & Rivers. Would love to play Matthews, but benching for Rice & DeMarco Murray.

If Matthews blows up I guess I'll be happy that he's healthy, but pissed that he's on my bench.

Why not play him over Bush?
Bush seems like the safer play. Mathews is coming off injury (an injury that is easily aggravated) and Tolbert usually gets the GL carries. Bush will be the "bell cow" for the Raiders and is expected to be the GL back.

I've been convinced. I'm sick of guessing between Bush and Mathews....I'll go with the Mercedes over the Ferrari.
 
Starting Rivers and Moore. I have a chance to start Moore in two leagues, don't know if I have the guts to throw that many eggs into one basket.

 
I also smell shootout (& I'm usually the opposite: I tend to think low-scoring when everyone & their dog thinks shootout). Gonna put my fantasy $ where my mouth is by starting Moore @ flex, benching a couple options that'll get me ridiculed if it doesn't work out

Really debating between Ford or L Robinson this weekend
I've got the exact same decision. Originally had Robinson but just slipped Ford into the starting lineup. Gotta figure the short week favors the offense so optimistic this will be a high-scoring affair. But it's a crapshoot...
 
Going with Ford and Bush (drinking and driving)

lil dilemma between Battle/hernandez/ford, but I gotta feeling tonight is gonna be a shootout and SD can't stop anyone. Plus it's fun to have guys play in the TNFG.

Opening O/U was 46.5 with San Diego -6. So Vegas thinks something like 26-20. Pretty good score for anyone starting a kicker in this game. Not quite a shoot out, but I think there will be plenty of yardage.

Same but leaning toward L-Rob because I hate playing a Thursday player then they end up doing little and you have to think about it for days. Hate Thursday games.

I am in a similar situation with Ford... I have Ford starting in one league and feel pretty good about it.. but in another league I was going to sit him out because I did not want to put too many eggs in one basket.. but now that I heard Julio Jones might have re-aggrivated his hammy I might have to roll the dice with Ford because I don't want to miss out on the chance of playing him tonight if Julio does not play on Sunday :wall:god i hate Thursday night games

With Nicks and Julio both iffy, I'm really tempted to start Vincent Brown, though I think sanity will prevail. I do feel like Brown could have a Baldwin-type breakout from a couple of weeks ago in this game.

I toyed with the idea as well with taking a chance and rolling with Brown. I have Andre Johnson and Hakeem Nicks dinged up and seriously thought about starting him tonight, but backed off the ledge.

Yeah, it would take pretty large stones to play him....and I'm afraid I don't have them this week.

Same situation and did the same thing.

first target, first catch...
 
jacoby ford carted off. some type of leg injury?
Looked like his left ankle, but who knows.... on the other hand Moore looks like his value is going up by the minute with Carson Palmer and Ford possibly out for a few weeks

Uh....what can I say other than thanks. That was one tough looking Mercedes while the Ferrari broke down, as usual. If the Mercedes had an extra gear last night he would have had a massive game. That said, the production from Bush was really good.Thanks again.
