  Yeah I would have finished 1st place in my league if 6 weeks ago Steve Slaton wouldn't have gotten me -1.2 points. I lost the matchup 98.70-98.10
  
  So literally Steve Slaton could have gotten 0 points for me and I would have won, and would have won the regular season (60 bucks) and the first place seed.
  
  There were 4 teams in my league who finished 9-4, I finished 3rd because I was 3rd in points.

  *Kenny Britt vs. St. Louis (will Justin Gage be back?)
  *TJ Houshmanzedah at Houston (he has been horrible, but is he due?)
  *Roy Williams vs. San Diego (he stinks, but has 3 TDs the past two games)
  *Mario Manningham (coming off a bad game, but I espect the Giants to throw a lot against Philly)
  
  I also have these scrubs: Michael Jenkins, Josh Cribbs, Sam Aiken
  
  It's my 16-team league, my strengths are my RBs (Adrian Peterson and Ray Rice), but my receivers have killed me all year ...

  Any other feedback on this year? As it stands, I am inclined to bench Britt, only because (A) Vince Young is questionable and (B) Justin Gage may be back and take back his starting role.
  
  I am not comfortable with any combination really, any help would be appreciated!

  I originally benched Sydney Rice agianst the Bengals in favor of Kenny Britt..but now that Young may be out and gage may be back, I might play Rice now.
  
  I would definitely play Williams and Manningham.
  Then I'd probably go with TJ cause they'll be able to pass all over Houston.

  Thanks, that is what I am thinking. Just really hard to bench Britt after scoring a TD three straight weeks ...

  My public league team is in the playoffs. I'm in 4th, but have scored more than 200 points more than anyone else in the league. I'm not very consistent.
  
  Need help at QB and WR #3
  
  QB's:
  Flacco against Detroit
  Cutler against GB
  
  To me it's a no brainer Flacco, but thought I'd ask.
  Also some FA's out there
  J. Campbell vs Oak
  V. Young vs Stl
  
  WR #3:
  Okay, I screwed the pooch and started Ward (2.1 points) Now I need to hit a home run with my #3 WR
  Breaston against SF
  Cotchery vs TB
  D. Henderson vs Atl
  
  FA:
  A. Collie vs Den
  K. Britt vs Stl
  P. Crayton vs SD
  
  Also my Defense might need an upgrade:
  SF plays Arizona this week and SF is my only defense. Who should I target from the FA's?
  
  Ari vs SF
  Car vs NE
  Sea vs Hou
  Mia vs Jac

  Yeah that's why I put him in at first...but with the recent news of Gage being back and Young potentially not playing it's just not worth it, especially in the playoffs.
  
  Besides, I think TJ will do just fine for you...Houston gives up fantasy points to opposing receivers.
