You got to go with Horn and Williams. After that, I'm really starting to like Jenkins prospects. Against the Seahawks, he could really break out. I'd go with him by a hair over Evans based on matchup and gut. With Fergy, you've got to take a wait-and-see approach. Good luck! [smiley=shammy.gif]

[offtopic]By the way, Rick, I will probably be giving you a call tomorrow about the Rams report. That goes for you too, Todd, regarding the Colts report if you happen to be reading this.[/offtopic]

Horn, Williams, and Ferguson!!!!

[smiley=band.gif]

Horn is a gimme...Williams will come out of the funk....Ferguson will reap rewards from an embarrassed Favre!!! Brett will ensure that he does not have a game like that again. Fergy IS a good play this week!!(Franks too) How many times can you call to memory that Brett laid back-to-back eggs? That magical Favre energy will cause all of GB's offense to elevate their game!! It always does. ;D

[smiley=pullleeeeeeeze.gif] you've been watching too much Brett Favre Fan Club TV, a.k.a. anything John Madden says anymore. [smiley=shootmyself.gif]

That said, ... [smiley=Imwithstupid.gif] ;D [smiley=rollinwithlaughter.gif]

Ferguson will do well vs. CLE. Maybe on the road would be a different story, but the Lamebo opener should be a successful day for Brat Farte and Co.

Good Luck!

Madden's an arse....you're just blind, forgetful, or one of those Viking geeks!!!

i'm jumpin' on the jenkins bandwagon...even though his qb has big giant wheels and little respect in the pocket - if he gets the ball - he's gettin' good stuff...tough call - but alot of heavy baggage in gb right [smiley=cheesehead.gif] now and the saints are usin' up all the pixie dust...but - like everybody else, that's just what i'm thinkin' right now [smiley=idontknow.gif] ...good luck, [smiley=shamrock.gif]

I would (and I am) start R. Fergusson.

He's in his 5th year. He knows the playbook. He knows his role. Now that Jevon walker is done for the year, He finally gets his chance. I feel that he has been inconsistent in his career because he really hasn't had too many opportunities. But he still had ok numbers last year as a #3.

B. Favre could break J. Elway's record for most TD's thrown in one stadium at the home opener for G.B. Favre feels he let down a lot of folks in Miss. on Sunday, so He bounces back big at home and Driver and Fergi reap the benefits.

Evans faces TB. Even Culpepper couldn't do anything against them. Do you think Lossman will?
Williams faces CHI. The CHI pass D looked good against WAS, and Jerry Azumah should be back as well.
Horn is an automatic start.
Jenkins at least has a chance for something, even though ATL likes to run it, because SEA is lousy against the pass.
Ferguson - What the other guys said.

I'd play Horn, Jenkins, Ferguson.

Play Horn if he's playing, but watch the Sunday morning reports. Deuce will probably get the touches. Teams are beating the Bills' run D, LB Spikes should be out, and the Saints won't have to abandon the run and go to the pass due to the score. But watch to see if Horn is actually going to play. If Horn plays, he finds a way to do things.

Galloway is getting downfield play, and the Lions' secondary has injury problems.

I'm playing Curtis this week. He could really go off. The Giants' pass rush is just fine, but their secondary sucks. Bulger has to throw it to someone, and Bruce should not be there.

R. Williams - Joey throws to him, but the Bucs are murder against the pass. Low score for the Lions.

Williamson - The Vikes are playing the Falcons D, and who knows what's happening with the Vikings' WRs.

I would recommend Horn (if playing), Curtis (definitely), Galloway, not Williams unless necessary, Williamson as a last option.

Well, like Callie, I'd go with Curtis definitely... He'll be a goodie this week with Bruce likely out, and ailing in any event. I'd go with the hot hand, Galloway, next. Then, again, like Callie suggests, I would wait out the Horn situation. If you just can't stomach it, go with Williams. If you can, put in Horn (at least preliminarily, right now) and cross your fingers and pray. [smiley=fingerscrossed.gif] ... [smiley=pray.gif] I, personally, am the type to have the stomach for it; as such, I'd just go with Horn and grin and bear it... with fingers crossed and hands clasped with eyes focused upward. Good luck, friend! [smiley=shamrock.gif]

i couldn't have said it better myself so i won't - i absolutely agree with steg & callie (horn's a warrior - unless he physically CAN'T go he will - even if it's to attract attention from the other guys, but the finger crossin' & prayin' should still commence)...good luck [smiley=shamrock.gif]
