Have a couple of tough lineup calls this week, let me know what you guys think.

1. This one is sorry but EJ Manuel or E. Manning. Like Manning's matchup but he has been so horrible I don't think that I can start him.

2. I have to sit one of these guys, which would you put on the bench. D. Murray, R. Jennings, B. Marshall, D. Jackson, A. Brown (pitt), or J. Gordon. I like all of these matchups but am interested on what you guys all think.

Unfortunately it's looking like you should roll with Eli no matter what. It all depends on the severity of Manuels knee issue. Apparently he sprained his knee on sunday...

It's tough to make lineup decisions like this on Monday for the following weekend. The best thing to do is to sit tight and watch the injury and practice reports throughout the week and let things work themselves out.

If those are the guys you have to pick from I'd say you'll be ok.

In ppr, there is no way I sit any of those WR's. Gordon is going to torch the Jets. DJax could easily do the same against the Bears, Cutler loves to throw it to Marshall, and A Brown catches at least 5 passes every week and plays a soft GB defense.

I'd sit one of the RB's. Dallas is the dumbest team in the NFL, so while Murray's matchup looks ok against Washington, the Cowboys cannot help but trip over their penchant to throw right now. Jennings faces an improved San Diego defense. I'd probably sit Jennings, but its close.

I'm worried (as a Dez and Witten owner) that Murray gets 100 carries next week as the Cowboys react to the media criticism by feeding him the ball. I agree it's close, and I also bench Jennings.

Dallas should have figured that out LAST week with Murray, but failed to do so. They were hanging with the Bears until they stopped running the ball. How could they fail to see that two weeks in a row???

I agree it's the smart football play and I couldn't believe their approach in either game. But I'm just a fantasy owner wanting my guys to catch some passes. :)

Stay stubborn Callahan/Garrett/Romo!

I would play other guys you have on your bench and put Charles, Marshall, D.Jax, J.Gordon, and A.Brown on the pine! :lol:

Great job thus far.......would rather be in my position this whole week, but have a feeling you will be smiling more when it is all over! :D
