The "Who should I start" thread

[Dutchrudder]

Serious question here, first week of playoffs:

Aaron Rodgers vs DET or Matt Schaub @ NE

6 points per passing TD, -2 for INT, no loss on sacks, and 25 yards per point.

My gut: I don't like Moore vs. Champ, even though Raiders should be behind & throwing. Week 4 was a Broncos blowout, and Moore was benched last week. (Watch him blow up, now!)

My top QB this week, and I suggest you don't bench your studs. Good luck.

Quick help please:

Drew Brees vs. Giants or Matt Schaub vs. Patriots?

Drew Brees for me, final answer.

Gotta go Brees. The track record is there even if last week sucked.

Definetly Rodgers! Schaub is way too inconsistent points wise - and Rodgers should put up big numbers in what will be a high scoring game...

Again I have to go against Schaub. Brees is just too good to sit...

Guys on the bench are:
Maclin
Kendall Wright
Sidney Rice (also questionable)

I have to decide on Moore by tonight. Since he's healthy, I might just have to leave him in, cause if Shorts can't go (and he probably can't) than it's a toss up for one of these three.

Thoughts?

Need to give us more time man.

Well, Schaub has outscored Rodgers in each of the last 3 weeks, so I'm a bit concerned. But as DKR said, "Dance with the one that brought you."

true story....oh no, i suck again

How you been? Let's grab a beer soon.

What do you guys think I should do about my terrible RB situation

Dwyer
Turner/Rodgers (I have both)
Felix Jones
Alex Green

Right now, I am leaning toward Dwyer and Rodgers. I think Dwyer is definitely a start especially with big Ben coming back. (Vereen is available as a FA, that's a big crapshoot like Felix Jones IMO). I know nothing about Green.

2nd RB to pair with AP:
Bryce Brown PHI @TB
Johnathon Dwyer PIT v. SD

Pick 2 WRs:
Greg Jennings v. DET
Mike Williams TB v. PHI
Denarius Moore v. DEN
Randall Cobb v. DET

Pick 1 TE:
B Myers v. DEN
K Rudolph v. CHI

performance, non-PPR

RB - Bryce Brown. He's had a great start.
WR -Randall Cobb and Mike Williams. Cobb is Rodgers' favorite target.
TE - Brandon Myers. He's a solid tight end compared to Rudolph.

Dwyer & Turner for me.

Playoff week. Having a real hard call here between starting Nicks, Maclin, or Golden Tate.

I'd avoid Maclin, he's screwed me all year. Nicks is going to be knicked up, so maybe Tate by default.

[Goldensilence]

I swear the FF Gods hate me. Start Tate... He's done nothing. Maclin goes for 21 and Nicks just caught his first TD in several games. OF course I sat both. FML.

I feel the same way. At least there is nothing I could have done, my opponenet but up 173.

[Playoffs]

I suck.

Picked up all these top ranked guys at no small cost and I get practically nothing: Bryce Brown, Myers TE Raiders, Conner Barth.

Not my year.

I have Ben Tate and Justin Forsett tonight but can only play one ... which one would you play?

I'd go with Justin Forsett. Tate still seems to be in the doghouse. Last game against the Titans Forsett had 14 carries, Tate had 3.
