just read miami has allowed 7 rushing tds in last 6 weeks.  got to go with davis.  the defenses seem to be a tossup.  miami's offense is more inept so i would probably go with carolina, however, the giants defense has been stellar so far this season.  still pick carolina.

I'd actually go with Thomas Jones at home against Cincinnati over Stephen Davis in Miami.  Maybe they've given up rushing TD's, but they tend to be stingy with rushing yardage, especially at home.  Also, I think Chicago, with Benson waiting in the wings and team VERY invested in him in any case, is going to look to continue to "showcase" Jones this week.  Their bye is next week and Week 5 is when I would expect Benson to really be called on to step up.

I don't think you can go wrong in any tandem

 
I don't like Jamal...but I do like his matchup. Deuce is gonna roll!! He should see the ball 20-25 times and is a lock to get at least a TD. Davis....good for around 90 and a TD (maybe 2). Would be 2 TD's for sure...but I think Steve Smith will rob one as he and Delhomme are on the same page right now!!!

By the way prm......Buffalo isDEAD LAST
against the run this year!!
 
After ranking 7th against the run last year, the Bills have allowed 174 rushing yards per game this season to Houston, TB, and Atlanta. Deuce will shred Buffalo this weekend!!

Flip a coin...  I'm with you...  Go with Davis and Deuce.  Keep Jamal on the bench as long as you can for now, i.e. until he does something of worth.  Good luck!

tough call.  if it was warner throwing to fitz, i think it would be obvious.  detroit is so bad, galloway may be the pick.  but then again 49ers have injuries on defense.  based on that thorough analysis.....i say galloway.  but that is just my 2 cents.  go get them this weekend.

I say stick with the two you expected to be your big guns, Smith and Fitzgerald.  But, really, quality-wise, Smith and Galloway amount to the same thing this week.  So, again, get your coin out, bro... Good luck!

man, had to dig deep to find this one again...anyway:
 
i have found at times that the greatest cause for anxiety is too much CHOICE:
(standard scoring w/ yardage bonuses...)
 
i'm starting delhomme against a decimated arz secondary instead of brooks in a shootout (because i can't seem to trust him)
right now i'm starting deuce and s. davis - but i also have  
t. jones / m. pittman / jamal (been a busy week - injuries, some back at practice now...i agree it's a coin flip between tj & davis - but now pittman is in the mix)...
i'm ok at wr (s. smith / fitz)...
no choice at te - conwell...
or kicker - graham...
or d/st - carolina (nyg off)...  
 
just looking for a little extra eleventh hour insight or a vote of confidence on the ones i've chosen...thanks,
prm...

i agree with delhomme.  lots of possibilities at running back.  can't argue about deuce and davis.  i would not consider pittman.  i think davis, jones, and lewis are pretty much a wash.  good luck this weekend!

Agreed...Deuce and Davis
except I would go with Jones as my 3rd option. Delhomme is a good choice at QB...but Brooks will be good too, GB's Defense will see to that. Brooks has that extra added "Hey look at me, I can run one in myself" bonus!! Which doesn't suck!!

Look, I don't like Brooks at all, BUT this week I'd go with him over Delhomme.  As per my picks on the "Fantasy Mirages" thread, my gut tells me he is in for a rough week all the way down in the desert.  Brooks will have numbers one way or another.
 
At RB, you don't have a choice.  You have the right two in.  My third choice like BW would be Lewis WAY over Jones.  Lewis got a slow start is preparing for lift-off; Jones got a quick start, pretty much, and is ready to fall... and get replaced.  BUT, I'm wondering...  Is this the league you now have Tiki in based on the trade?  That was NOT integrated into/consolidated with THIS thread, so I don't know... ... ... (Read,... substantive lesson in thread non-proliferation if this is that league.)  Mind you, prm, I did appreciate this, Quote:

understood and agreed sir, this will remain the thread for all my league questions heretofore...and yes sir, i did nab tiki in this league (not an issue this week)...as much as it scares me, i will supplant jake for his former team-mate - with no small degree of trepidation (based purely on recent past performance) - which will spread my scoring around a little more anyway...thanks,

Saban is smart, and he will probably go RBBC for now to see what sorts out.  Brown for now sounds better, but who else does this guy have at RB?  You say he is good there.  And for that matter, he may not be anxious to drop the Raven's D just yet.  I would keep them over the Giants and Panthers Ds for the season at this point.
 
The Ricky and Ronnie thing could be an RBBC until someone goes to another team, until someone crashes, or it could hold steady.  And for that matter, who else do you have at RB?  Oh, and do you get points for receptions at RB?
 
Just askin'.

Saban says he wants to use Brown and Williams on the field at the same time, with Brown sometimes playing more like a fullback.  That is supposed to start this week.
 
It's hard to say if Peterson will share a lot of touches with Benson and for how long.  Is Droughns available on the WW in your league?  Suggs is supposed to be out for awhile.
