Week 13...PLEASE HELP ME!!!?

Question

I'm in a must win situation to make the playoffs. Here are my options:

(1) RB: L. Maroney v. Det, T. Henry v. Indy, or Jones-Drew v. Miami...LJ is my #1 RB

(3)WR: Holt v. Ari., Horn v. San Fran., Chris Henry v. Balt., D. Stallworth v. Car., or Reche Caldwell v. Det.

QB: Philip Rivers v. Buf. or M. Bulger v. Arizona

TE: K. Winslow v. KC or C. Cooley v. Atl

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

definitely play maroney and lj, play holt and horn for sure..as for your other matchups..theyre tough--definitely dont play stallworth..hes useless with garcia..id play henry simply because hes been doing well all year behind two great wrs but who knows how hell do against baltimore...id check out his last game against baltimore and go from there...bulger v arizona bc arizonas d is terrible and stl needs to do well to make a playoff run, and cooley over winslow bc cooley has been money the past few weeks..i think hes had a td in the past 4 games..i dont know what this guys talking about saying winslow has been more consistent than cooley...winslow has had 0 tds the past 4 games and 64 yards a game, while cooley in the past 4 games has had 63 yds a game with 3 tds

Answer 2

RB- I will have to go with either Maroney or Henry. Maroney is going against a weak Lions defense that has been able to stop the run that well. Henry on the other hand is going against a weak Colts defense that can't stop the run either. Also Henry had a great game against the Colts. Miami is playing great lately so don't even start Drew. So go with either Maroney or Henry but I mostly say Henry because he is the starter. Maroney shaers touches with Dilon.

WR- Torry Holt hands down. Arizona has a weak defense that can't stop the run or pass so who is going to stop Holt. Brees doesn't really throw to Horn that much because he has a lot of other weapons even though they are great WR. He still uses them. The Ravens have a great defense so I don't think you should go with Henry. The Eagles aren't using Stallworth at all probably because of his injuries. Also they didn'y look that well against the Colts. Caldwell may have a good game but then Brady might not have to throw that much if the running game is so successful against the Lions. Also Caldwell hasn't put up big numbers yet because the Pats aren't a passing team.

QB- It won't matter who you start because both of them will have a great game but I will have to go with Bulger because he has more weapons. Bulger has Holt, Bruce, and Curtis. Rivers has Gates and L.T. but look how Rivers play against the Raiders. Come on the Raiders. I think you should start Bulger because he has more weapons and plus L.T. might have a great game and Rivers might not have to do anything.

TE- I don't really know about this one. Winslow hasn't been use lately and Cooley only had that big play against the Panthers. Besides that, he hasn't done anything but I am going to go with Cooley because the Falcons defense is not as good as the Chiefs defense.

I hope you do good and make the playoffs.

Answer 3

Go with Maroney. Miami has a pretty okay run defense, and Travis Henry is okay, but go with the Pats. Do you get return yards, then it's even better if you go with Maroney, but even if you don't. Maroney is a great bet...

I'd go with first Chris Henry vs. Baltimore. Baltimore's core defense is the linebackers, and Henry is looking very very good. Stay away from Reche vs. Det. But other than that, the other three aren't bad. Especially Horn vs. San Fran. Brees, Horn's QB is having a great time this year, lots of passing yards...

I'd go with Bulger, mostly because Buffalo has pretty good passing guys.

The TE is a toss up. But I'd go with Cooley vs. Atl by a nose (though Kellen generally will have a good day too) but KC's defense is a little stiffer than Arizona's... so, Cooley...

Hope this helped some, and I hope you make the playoffs, it's a whole new season after that... :)

Answer 4

You should most definitely play Laurence Maroney against Detroit. Rod Marinelli has done nothing with the defense in the Motor City.

At receiver, I would take Horn, Caldwell, and Holt. Henry is up against a very stingy Baltimore defense, and Carolina's defense is nothing to sneeze at, either.

It seems like a toss-up between Rivers and Bulger, but I think that Buffalo has a better defense than Arizona, so personally I would go with Bulger.

Kellen Winslow is having a pro-bowl year, and the Kansas City defense is down this season, so I would take him this week.

Answer 5

As much as I like SD, it may be snowing or rough weather in Buffalo. Bulger is still a good option vs a sad AZ team.
As long as you have LJ starting any other RB is just gravy.
Henry has the edge based on Yard running. Jones-Drew has more TD (8) and splits his runs and reception yards. Maroney has more total yards running and receiving, but not as many TD. For you, it depends on what you get more points for.

WR: You should go with Holt vs AZ, Horn vs SF and Caldwell vs Det.

TE: Cooley has become one of the best Fantasy TE and should is must-start against the Falcons. Winslow has been slowed a bit cause he is on a sorry team.

Answer 6

RB - LJ & Travis Henry vs worst run D in the NFL
Wr - Holt, Horn, Henry- Bengals will be forced to pass.
Henry averages a TD per start for his career.
QB - Bulger
TE - Cooley

Answer 7

T. Henry vs. the worst run defense
Holt is great always, Stallworth is a threat, Reche is becoming a popular target for Brady
Rivers is going to come back strong off a poor week
Winslow is more consistent than Cooley

Answer 8

For runningback I would go with Maurice Drew...He gets all the redzone touches plus he is also like a mini R Bush and will get you receptions.
WR-Holt-Horn-Henry---Even though Henry Is the 3rd reciever it looks like Palmer has forgiven him fro a couple weeks ago for not leaping for a ball...he will get you a td

QB-Rivers.....Great qb matchup.......Bulger qb's a team which is now a running team and will get something like 190-210 yrds in the air where Rivers will get like 250-290 with a couple of td's

TE-Easily Winslow....He had 11 receptions when he went up against SD who has Gates and he will prove he is good against Gonzales....even though C Frye sucks he will go to his bread and butter

Good luck

Answer 9

RB, start Maroney. Detroit's run defense suuuucks!

WR: Holt (see Detroit defense), Horn (SF pass defense is inconsistent), and Caldwell (see RB).

QB: Bulger.

TE: C.Cooley (KC defense is much better this year).

Answer 10
