Week 12 Sit/Start

[Sandman62]

Flex: Keiland vs. MIN, Ronnie @OAK or Beanie vs. SF?

I may be crazy, but I'm slightly worried about the Vikings doing what the Cowboys did in their first game w/ their new head coach. But even if MIN gets ahead, won't Keiland still be a pass-catcher (6 receptions on 8 targets last week)? Well, there's also James Davis now off their practice squad. But we've been burnt in years past by the evil Dr. Shanahan!

Ronnie seems like the least desirable of this bunch, w/ his tattered O-line and terrible Tyler at QB. OAK's still a bad run D (25th) and allowed just 8 rushing TDs. But MIA's offense, on the road, banged up, missing Marshall... seems like a blowout in the making?

Wells whined to the media this week about not liking his role and lack of ARI using their RBs. Will the squeaky wheel get the grease, as we often see in the NFL? The Cardinals ARE at home and facing a division rival. Note: SF's run D is 15th and has only allowed 6 rushing TDs.

I'm probably just overthinking this (as usual). It seems like Keiland's the best option by far here, no?

Also for TE, give ZMiller another shot in his second game back from injury or roll w/ Dreessen, facing a TE-friendly TEN defense?

Thanks all and Happy Thanksgiving!

Damn! I just read that Fred Taylor's active today. Should this scare us away from BJGE as our RB2? If so, our only other alternatives after Keiland at flex would be Wells or Ronnie.

I'm pretty sure we still have to roll w/ BJGE tho, as the Pats should stomp the Lions today and hopefully run out the 4th quarter.

Heya Sand - I'm just some dood, but if I had to pick 2 of Keiland, R. Brown, Wells or BJGE I'd take Keiland for sure and the rest of the 3 are all a matter of who gets a lucky goal-line TD. So by default I take size. Who would get the option at a 1 yard plunge do you think? I'd sit Wells and probably put up BJGE. Careful on the Lions prediction today - they're passing happy offense vs. the Pats passing defense means they're going to let the Lions in for 30+. Pats should win, but I see a fun 41-34 game here. (admitted Lions fan)

TE? Give me Dreessen.

Good luck to you and your squad

Deion Branch or Mike Williams [Tampa] Shaun is good for 250 and 2.5 TD's this week, I like him over Manning's non-existent WR corps.

Give me Deion Branch vs. Detroit - 7 receptions for 97 yards and a TD. [/QUOTE]Thank's DYV as i played them both.Great game from Branch but at the half i was worried as he didnt have a catch.SHAUN Hill should have had a much better day BUT THE ONE YARD run's killed him.Still together they put up good numbers.

Yeah, I'm shocked Hill didn't get in the endzone a couple more times. Glad it averaged out the right way - Hill vs. that pass defense with Megatron.... hard to believe they didn't punch it in just one more time - a 27+ from Hill is what I would have expected.

Sadly I left Branch on my bench - I thought Sidney Rice vs. Wash after the 'new' Vikings hit the field would outperform him, but gonna be hard to beat the 26 I left watching ):

Good job getting it!

[Sandman62]

Flex question (again)... w/ Shanahan announcing that Davis will see more touches this week, is Keiland too risky? Only other options are Ronnie @OAK (which is slightly better now that Henne's starting again), Beanie or give ZMiller another shot on his injured foot? Thoughts?

[BLACKHAND]

im using keiland. from now on im doing the complete opposite from what shanahan says.

[Sandman62]

That's probably as decent a strategy as anything Frank!

[da bears]

Pierre Garcon or James Jones @ flex?
