Donald Driver Vs. Minnesota

    I would start Ocho Cinco and Plaxico. Chad Johnson thrives when a challenge is presented to him and Eli will have to throw a lot against NO.

    Thomas Jones will likely not get more than 10 carries. The Bears wrapped up #1 seed and he has some aches and pains. Look for Benson to see 20+ carries though. That said go with McGahee.

    It's rather difficult not to play Chad Johnson, however on Monday against the Colts he had more than one drop, plus he was a little banged up in the second half, but the main reason why you should maybe not play him this week is because he will be matched up against the best CB in the league (Champ Bailey) who had two more interceptions last week. Therefore I would start TJ, he will more often be on the opposite side of the field as Chad, and will have more opportunity for receptions and yards after catch. That leaves Donald Driver who has had an incredible season and will more than likely have a solid game against a Minnesota defense who is known to stop the run, not the pass. Plex should also have a descent game, especially if New Orleans get an early lead (which they probably will - due to there poor performance last week, look for them to come out with a lot of fire power) this will force Manning to start airing it out.

    TJ, DD, and Plex

    At running back I would go with Thomas Jones, he has been playing well consistently all season, and he always gets a significant amount more action than Benson gets.

    First how did you win last week with all these guys doing nothing ?

    Tough call at WR - the CIn boys should be sure bets but after Monday night not sure. Driver goes as Favre goes and after last week that is a toss up. Buress should have some success, based off what Moss did to the Saints last week.

    Go with the Cin boys (one of the two will get off if not both) and Buress.

    At RB I would roll the dice with McGahee, never know if Benson will steal some carries and TD from Jones.

    Good luck!

    Start Donald Driver - Minn secondary has just been torched all season! They stop the run but give up big points to recievers.

    Plaxico Burress - NO defense gives up points and you have to like that match-up.

    TJ Houzmanzada! Champ Bailey will be on Ocho Cinco! Making TJ the better option.

    Play McGahee he wont split any carries with anyone and Tenn. defense gives up a lot of rushing yards & scores...

    At WR, I would sit one of the teammates. Between Chad and Houz, I am playing Houz, but Cahd is the no. 1 on the team. Flip a coin. At RB, Jones could share carries, while McGahee will have his own way. Start him.
