Who to start in week 15 - fantasy football?

Question

Championship game - first place $350 and 2nd is $150 so you know i want first.

RBs - automatic start of LT then for a 2nd?
Betts vs saints
Jones-Drew vs titans

i am leaning towards Jones-Drew

now for the QB
Garcia vs Giants
Kitna vs Pakers

i am leaning to Kitna

In my other league i have my first playoff game after a first round bye - everything looks good but the QB position

Again i have Kitna as my backup playing the packers or my normal start Vick against the cowboys. Vick is normaly the better play and in most league (and mine) in the top five for all QBs. the problem is the cowboys D can be real good but the pack likes to give up a lot of passing yards and TDS

thanks

Answer 1

I am leaning towards Betts. He just played great last week. Also the saints pass d seems to be more effective than their run defense. I think he will put up big numbers against the saints.

Ahhh twice I lean the opposite way. Kitna makes me want to vomit. At this point I am not convinced he could put up points against the raiders. Garcia on the other hand has 8 touchdowns to 0 interceptions (I just jinxed him I know it.) Stallworth and R. Brown have been catching his balls as well as Westbrook on the play action. I'm not objective though bc of being an eagles fan.

concerning the other league, dallas's run defense was horrific sunday night against NO. I think vic will at least rush well against them. and to contradict myself, should we give credit to the NO offensive coordiator for good play calling??? not sure my gut is to stick with VICK

good luck

Answer 2

Your second RB should M.Jones-Drew, Fred Taylor tweaked his hamstring sunday, and hamstring injuries tend to linger, so he may not be able to go next week or be limited. Jones-Drew can now be considered a must-start, he's like a little wrecking ball. Betts played well the last 3 games, but he doesn't score that much, why?, i'm not really sure, probably because the redskins SUCK. Jones Drew is going to be rookie of the year, yes, over Bush,Colston, and Hester. Play the Rookie, he won't disapppoint.

As for you quarterback, i think you should stick with Vick. The cowboys D or not, Kitna has a good match-up but you can't trust that guy in your most important game of the season, nor can you play garcia against the giants. The cowboys just finished allowing Drew Brees to pick their defense apart(like 350 yds,5tds) it was bad!. Vick will be your safest bet, and probabaly score the most points of the three. He is the only one still in contention for a playoff spot and will be playing his *** off, he 'll get you points with his legs if he can't throw, don't panic and start Vick!

Good Luck, don't blow the 350 all at once!

Answer 3

I would go with Jones-Drew for RB because he is playing very well and the Jags are running the ball more than ever. Jags WR cannot catch anything so they are staying on the ground as their pass game is largely ineffective. Additionally, the Saints will put up lots of points which will force Washington to pass more and thus reduce the value of Betts in this game.

As for your QB situation, go with Kitna against the Packers bad pass defense. Garcia will have a tough time outside against the Giants. Additionally, take Kitna over Vick as well for this week; Cowboys D will be back and hungry this week after the butt kicking they took from Saints.

Answer 4

QB- kitna. the green bay secondary looks pretty bad and he should be able to find mike furrey against a weak corner. the giants have only given up 4 passing TD's all season at home and while Garcia is good, the Giants D at home is better. donte stallworth will have a tough time finding the paint this week and garcia should only be able to post moderate numbers.

RB- Jones-Drew. The Saints have a stiff 4 up front and should be able to hold Betts, though red-hot, to a less-than-stellar outing. Even moreso, look for Brees to light up Was causing Washington to abandon the run in an attempt to preserve the clock. Furthermore, the Titans D is one of the worst in the league and if Jones-Drew can be patient and find the holes like last week, he will, once again, light it up. Look for Jones-Drew to have a few big runs, too, not just the goal-line carries.

Answer 5

Your best bet for a flex play is usually a RB. That being said I feel that Brian Westbrook is your top RB option, not Felix Jones. I also think that Mike Williams is your top WR option here, not Anquan Boldin. Both Felix Jones and Anquan Boldin are very good players Felix Jones has 2 other RB's that may take a good percentage of the carries and in Dallas you can never really put your money on what they will do in any given situation. So I'd go with Westbrook, I feel that he has proven himself to the 49ers. Anquan Boldin as of late has not put up numbers. With NO strong secondary, i wouldn't risk it. The Ravens being at home helps a little, but with the Saints needing a win they're D is going to be playing harder than ever. This is going to be a good game. I'd rank your players as follows Mike Williams > Anquan Boldin and Westbrook > Jones I hope this helps.

Answer 6

go with johnes drew, and garcia vs giants, garcia has impressed me when he won,
