Title: I need help who to start, my team is that good
Post by ibdfunk on Sep 2^nd, 2003, 10:01am

I am so confused who to start because my team is very deep. I try to play match ups every week but it is hard to do the first week. I have to start 2 QBs, i think i am going to sit Mcnabb this week because he is playing Tampas Df. This will enable me to start Bledsoe and Mcnair who have good match ups.

As far as Rbs go, i need to start three. My first two are Faulk and Dillon, as for my third i have Amos Zer. Trung Canidate and now O. Gary. Who should i start??

My recievers are set with Moss, H.Ward and Darrell Jackson.

My Df is a question as well. I have Tampa and Caralina, i am thinking of playing Caralina at home against Jacksonville. Tampa is playing on the road at Phili..

Suggestions would be great!!!!

First off, welcome to the Gridiron funk!!

I have to agree with all of your choices, although I think McNabb, in a brand new stadium, on Monday Night Football, against the team that put them out of the playoffs, may put up some good numbers.

As for your other RB, I think I'd go with Zereoue. Gary would be a great start against Arizona, but I am wondering how much playing time he will see.

I'd go with Carolina's Defense as well.

Good luck!

I have mcNabb as the #1 QB, I'd go with him rather than Bledsoe against NE. Bledsoe seems to choke against his former team, NE has upgraded their D this offseason, and Buffalo appears to be moving to more of a ball control offense.

Normally, I'd say Trung Canidate is the choice for your 3rd RB, however Dallas is playing Atlanta who did well against FF RBs last year, and Amos has done very well in the past against Baltimore. Zereoue is my choice for 3rd RB.

Gotta go with Carolina vs a very questionable Jacksonville offense right now.

QB - go McNabb and McNair - two Irishmen who will carry you to victory in week one.

RB - when do you have to decide on your third RB? I like Gary the best if he is starting, but we may not know that until just before game time. If you have to have your whole lineup set by Thursday, give Canidate a shot.

Def - Gotta go with Carolina. They were among the best last year and they face a team that will only be handing it off to Fred Taylor since their WRs are not a threat.

"The Black Irish"

Best team name I've never seen used/I have not had the right combination of players to use! ;)

Am I missing something? Why would you not start famous Amos. He seems to have the least question marks surrounding him. Solid Offense, Starter.

Gary...we don't even know if he is starting....splitting carries. Too dangerous to start week 1.

Trung....Spurrier has said that all 3 backs will receive touches. Yes, even Chad Morton is getting in on the mix on 3rd downs. RBBC BIG TIME!!!

Go with Amos!!

Being a Steelers fan, I have to advise everyone to seriously downgrade the whole team for the first game of any season. Check out the history for Steelers first games under Bill Cowher - absolutely brutal.
