Harrison on the other hand is a dirty POS who tried to injure a QB in a preseason game.. standard play for that dirty ass team. Im sure Hines Ward gave him props later on. Ask any division rival, the Steelers are a disgusting team. Lead by Mr. Rapistberger. Dumb as hell. Orton wasn't even near him and went right to the ground. There's only one thing you're going for down there, and Orton got what he deserved for being an idiot. Hey, if it's preseason, just stay the hell away from the play then. You can't care enough to try and stop him in a preseason game, but then bitch when he punishes your ass for being stupid. I hate how babied QBs are these days jesus | ||

He's certainly not helping himself for a career outside of 'Zona either. | ||

As expected, Big Ben is suspended for four games instead of six. Darren Sharper gets placed on PUP. Eagles trade for LG Wells. And the most interesting piece Housh done in Seattle I'll start with the top. I was really hoping Ben would be suspended for six games. I hate him with a firey passion. I can only hope his season is cut short somehow (maybe he'll try to rape another girl). Sucks for Sharper, but moreso, it sucks for the Saints defense. He was the engine that moved that train last year, and without him they are going to hurt, I think. Solid move for the Eagles in signing Wells, he's a decent LG, and the move makes a lot of sense for 'Zona, who have Faneca starting at LG. Wells was just a financial burden at this point. The most interesting story is the Housh story. Seattle is shopping him around, and will release him if they can't find a buyer, making him a free agent (obviously). Housh can then sign for the veteran minimum with another team (850k), and still get paid 6.15 million that Seattle is on the hook for. I don't know what the deal between Housh and the 'Hawks, but I hope they release his ass, and the Bears grab him up, because FFS, they need a damn WR to help out (of course, they need offensive linemen as well). And for 850k for a year, they won't find a better player or deal (even though I think Housh is highly over rated, and benefited largely from having Chad Johnson playing opposite him in his years with the Bengals). To make things even crazier out in Seattle, reports are that once forgotten WR Mike Williams will take the starting role that TJ held, making an incredibly unlikely comeback a success. | ||

AP or CJ? I'm leaning towards AP because with Harvin and Rice out, AP will probably get more touches than CJ. Also Titans RB's seem okay to alleviate the carrying CJ had to do last season. However, there is always the problem of fumbleitis.... | ||

I'd probably go with CJ, but's a coin toss IMO. Depends on how much carrying AP has to do with Favre having his main receivers out (and who steps up). | ||

I think I HAVE to take CJ. After what he did last year i feel like it's a decision made for me. If you take CJ and he does poorly, absolutely no one is going to second guess you. THe man was a freaking 2k yard rusher last year, several HUNDRED more than AP. He also didnt have the severe case of fumbleitis that obviously is an ongoing Peterson issue. Both could be argued as number 1's, but there's nothing worse in Fantasy Football than second guessing decisions, and right now CJ is a more clear, common sense choice because of what he accomplished last year. ...at least that's what i like to tell myself. Please don't argue otherwise or i will have a mental breakdown. | ||

I think the packers defense is going to be really solid like it was last year. Eli is going to have a rebound year after that embarrassing 2nd half. AP i think is going to improve as teams are going to overeact to Brett Favre like i think they did last year, at least statistically. Not a fan of your WR core though, no huge numbers going there, with Ocho's only going to go down due to split duty with TO. But its always nice have Gonzalez has thats a gaurentee'd solid start. | ||

In the same league as GTR, finished with the following: QB: Cutler, Palmer RB: Gore, Deangelo Williams, Arian Foster, Kareem Huggins WR: Austin, Steve Smith (Car), Bowe, Nicks, Knox, M. Floyd, Jacoby Jones TE: Zach Miller K: Hartley D/ST: Vikings I just feel like my team doesn't have the real legit big name star. Just a bunch of pretty good players. I feel like my bench is deep, but I'm just not sure. I don't have that ridiculously big name QB that puts up huge stats like Brees or Rodgers. Just a gunslinger who throws a ton, and also throws a ton of picks. Felt like I kinda had to take DeAngelo, but I'm not sure about his timeshare with Stewart. And Gore keeps getting injured -_- I think I'm set on WRs though. | ||

Gore is very solid RB and Austin is very much a big name star. Arian Foster is interesting. He could either be a good starter, or a 3rd backup RB. You NEVER know what the Texans are going to do with RBs. | ||

He certainly hasn't impressed anyone in the preseason either. Zach Miller (who I have as TE in my league) is a solid sleeper for TE in my opinion. I know when it comes to Raiders, you can never know, but Miller is someone who they consistently got involved. By the way, anyone care to comment on my fantasy team (I'm in 10 men regular scoring league)? QB: Schaub, Roethlisburger RB: Gore, Mendenhall, Beanie Wells, Donald Brown WR: Greg Jennings, Percy Harvin, Hakeem Nicks, Jeremy Maclin, Kenny Britt TE: Zach Miller (Oak), Todd Heap K: Tynes D/ST: Arizona Cardinals*. I plan to switch D/ST every week based on matchup. Arizona got Rams in week 1 so I picked them for now. | ||

I plan to switch D/ST every week based on matchup. Arizona got Rams in week 1 so I picked them for now. It depends on where you were drafting from, but I would be unhappy at QB and HB in a ten team league. Schaub, despite being a very good QB and a good fantasy producer last year is a second tier QB. I hate Big Ben with all my heart and would never put him on my team (that's pure bias though). (If I had to guess, I'd say you picked 5 or 6.) Your HB's are all second tier, you only have one good WR, and your TE's are second/third tier. Kicker doesn't matter. Unless you get a top five defense, you're better off doing what you're doing for now, and then hoping to strike gold mid season (I caught Tennesee's defense in week 4 when they went 13-3 and were the #1 fantasy defense, for instance).

Manning RB: AP, J Stewart, Felix Jones, Bradshaw, Thomas Jones WR: Wayne, Ochocinco, Meachem, Mike Williams TB, Heyward-Bay TE: Gonzalez, Miller K: Gostkowski D/ST: Packers I feel the same way about your QB's as the guy above, but other than that, very good team (although, with #1 overall, I think Schaub is a solid QB to walk away with... also keep in mind that QB's are weighted heavily in my money league). AP will be AP and get like ~17 TD's with 1800 total yards (at least), and 12 fumbles. I'm pretty sure that I'm taking CJ first overall on Monday. But, your backup HB's are very good. JStew finished with (I think) 13 TD's and 1300 yards last year, and he gets the majority of red zone carries. Jones could be a beast again this year, depends on how Charles does. Wayne is, by many accounts, the number two WR this season. He's basically guaranteed 1k yards, and 7-14 TD's per year (I know the TD's is a wide range, but it's so hard to tell when a WR will score, especially with Manning chucking the ball, because he has so many guys that he throws to... still, Wayne is his go-to guy). I think Chad Johnson rebounds this year. Some people think he'll have to deal with a lot of throws to T.O. but let's be real for a second... Johnson has been with Carson since Carson started, if Chad gets open, he gets the ball. More throws will go his way. The other guys... garbage overall, imo. TE, solid. You nabbed a top 5 TE on a team whose HB has durability questions and may be forced to throw a lot. Gonzalez is ALWAYS a RZ threat. Idk if that's Heath or Zach. Kicker doesn't matter, and your D is so-so. They were a good fantasy D last year.

Floyd, Jacoby Jones TE: Zach Miller K: Hartley D/ST: Vikings QB's are not good, but Palmer could be a sleeper this year. He had a hot start last season, and fizzled. We'll see. I like Gore when he's healthy (I feel like I've said this before), but that's the problem... when is he healthy? DWill is awesome, but JStew steals red zone carries. I honestly don't know who the other guys are. Unless you're playing a lot of WR's, I think you have too many, and some of them are simply irrelevant, like Jacoby Jones. There's no reason to pick that guy ever (unless you also get return points), because AJ, Walter, and Owen Daniels get all the receptions there. I think Austin is going to be decent this year, but he probably has some competition from Dez now, so he won't repeat last year. Still, good pick overall (top 15 WR by anyone's standards, top 10 by others... haven't really seen him placed top 5). Steve Smith should have a return to form this year, now that Delhomme isn't throwing INT's all game (he would have won that title had he not been pulled from the starting role). Bowe is good, even on a bad team, nice pick. Nicks is considered by many people to be THE sleeper WR this year, so good pick there. Knox is a huge question mark, I'd like to know who else was on the board at that time (probably better value in a HB somewhere). Malcom Floyd... I could do without. Zach Miller is interesting, he could be 14c gold, or he could be 10c gold and turn colors halfway through the season. It's a risk, because you don't know what the QB play will be like (though he did well with Russel, and it won't get worse), but a good risk to take. Still a second tier TE. Kicker is the same as always, good D. And now that I realize it was auto-picked, not a bad pull at all. I hope there's no money in this though. | ||

QB: Rivers, Stafford RB: MJD, Jamaal Charles, CJ Spiller plus all their notable backups except Fred Jackson WR: Boldin, Housh TE: Vernon Davis D/ST: Ravens Kicker: Gould Backup WRs are Cotchery, Laurent Robinson, and Mario Manningham. A little weak at wide receiver, but I feel like if there's a position to be weak at, WR is it. | ||

I plan to switch D/ST every week based on matchup. Arizona got Rams in week 1 so I picked them for now. I'm not as negative as sweetlemons. Your team isn't bad, but it isn't good. This is all dependent on what you have to start each week... Gore is absolutely a top tier RB. He's a featured back who can catch and is top five in total yards over the last four years or something like that. Mendenhall is another back who did well last year and will be the main back for a Steelers team that's going to run more with Ben out. He can make shit happen. I do not like your depth after that though. Arizona's run blockers sucked with Warner there to keep Ds honest. They didn't improve that line this offseason and Warner's replacements blow. Schaub/Ben is fine for a QB tandem. You probably picked sixth. There are less featured backs than good QBs (and QB TDs are 4 in standard vs 6 pts for RBs), so going RB first was good. Schaub's near the top of the second group of QBs after Peyton Rodgers Brees. WRs are pretty meh besides Jennings. Harvin and Nicks could potentially be useful, but they are more of a #3 since they are #2 options in their respective offenses. Harvin might improve with Rice out though.... I think the Eagles take a big step back and I think Vince Young is terrible. TEs That's not a bad sleeper. I personally have been doing Cooley as my sleeper pick... I think Heap, who used to be very good, benefits a lot from Boldin drawing coverage and the great run game. Change your D though, the Cards are not going to be any good on D. If there's no one solid, play week by week on match ups. My team. Scoring changes are 6pts passing TD, -2int, .5 per reception. 10 Teams. Picked 3rd (someone grabbed Rodgers at #2 lol) Rivers Ochocinco, Crabtree, Floyd Peterson, Mendenhall Witten W/R: Ronnie Brown, Brandon Jacobs Bironas Dallas D Bench: Donald Brown, Hightower, Gonzalez, Berrian, Palmer I figure I'm solid at RB QB and TE. WR has potential to be good. I think Floyd will get the ball from Rivers a ton with Jackson out and Crabtree showed skills last year in limited time. | ||
