How many teams have Big Ben?

McCoy looks completely out of it. No way he should have come back in.

Hardesty isnt anything close to an NFL player. Why doesn't Hillis play?

Brown came out smoking and had 7.5 points at the half.
We will see as there is still a quarter left. oh.

[/QUOTE]It happens to everyone. We over think things. Somehow the stars have to align to realize fantasy gold in the chase for the big bucks. I played Brown tonight but gave it some consideration not to. This is only the first playing decision of 30 over the next 3 weeks. You can't hit on all of them, but to win the overalls it probably needs to be at least 29. You've got 1 life left.

Good Luck.

I am really starting to question where Ben ranks in the NFL now at QB. I question how Brees, Brady, Peyton (when healthy) could or would perform with a horrific offensive line where 80-90% of the positive passing plays are primarily due to the QB making a play on his own.

Rodgers is clearly playing on another level now but even he is in a very cohesive system. The vast majority of positive plays by Brady, Brees and a healthy Peyton are designed plays that allow the QB to find an option as he reads through his progressions and the protection is usually there.

As fantasy players we all know what "high ankle sprain" means... We all have seen a guys leg get twisted in an awkward position. That was as bad as I have seen in a long time. Thought for sure it was broken and minimally a high ankle sprain... to see him come back in AND make plays at a high level is absolutely mind boggling.

Tomlin, who usually impresses me in front of a microphone, really went out of his way to downplay what Ben did as if he is frustrated that the TEAM doesn't get equal attention. Tomlin should re-think that attitude because his standing as a top head coach in the NFL has been riding right on the back of #7 for a long time.

[/QUOTE]Big Ben looks to Brown as the first option often. He seems to be the #1 WR at this point.

Seeing Big Ben get help leaving the field looked done.
I was happy seeing this knowing no way a qb who cant walk cant play.I sat Antanio Brown so not really afraid of Charlie Batch but Big Ben scares me.Two minutes and change to go in a 7 to 3 game just kill the clock and im a genius as Brown will have a 4 for 55 just like Wallace and i can live with a 11 point game on my bench.Big Ben back to pass ,oh no ,anybody but 84 ,oh no the player caught it,who is that guy steaking down the field ,its 84 .No flags,i hate you Big Ben ,couldnt you be like any other qb in football and go sit with a couple vicodens.Damn it 11 points to 26 in a flash and i now have to double up on the ambien.
