    QB: Rivers is no joke, and the Pats just made Henne look good, 416 yards 2 TDs a pick and a fumble. Rivers is a step up from Henne for sure, so I except him to do really well this week.

    RB1: Rice just had 19 carries for 107 yards and a TD against the Steelers. Yeah they may not have had the best game and were playing from ahead most of the game. But this is the Titans. He'll be big.

    RB2: Jones had 17 carries for 44 yards and 3 catches for another 17 and a TD against yet another good defense, the Jets. SF isn't quite as good as the Jets run D, and I expect Dallas to be up quickly and running the ball often to burn clock.

    WR1: C. Johnson injured himself last week, so watch for him to make sure he plays. Johnson is playing the Chiefs this week, who just let up 41 to Buffalo. As the number 1 target, he should get at least a TD and a good chunk of yardage.

    WR2: S. Johnson has been nursing an injury as well so watch out for that, but he should be fine. This might be the weakest part of your team, considering how the Raiders shut down Orton last week and the Bills are nearly as talented as Denver. But if anyone scores, it'll be him since he's their best wideout.

    WR3: Maclin has Vick throwing to him, who has something to prove going back to Atlanta, no matter what he says. He's going to have a huge game, and that means Maclin will too.

    TE: Pettigrew had the second most targets last week only short of Calvin Johnson. Yet again its the Chiefs who haven't proven themselves. He should do well this week.

    K: Sea Bass kicked a 70-yarder in warm up and a 63-yarder at the end of the first half. He'll be fine.

    DEF: This is the Jets playing the Jags, after getting a pick and 2 fumble recoveries against Dallas. The Jags only upside is Jones-Drew, and the Jets run defense should be able to contain him.

    As for your opponent, Schaub is playing Miami, so he could have a great game. C. Johnson and Blount both had bad games last week, and most likely Johnson's bad performances won't end with Baltimore this week. Blount is playing Minnesota, though, who just gave up a big game to the Chargers back so that could be trouble. White could have some trouble against a revamped Eagles D, but its hard to tell from Ryan's poor performance last week and the fact that the Eagles shut down the Rams. Jackson is playing Miami, so he could do well, but you have his QB so the damage will be minimized. Buress is playing the Jags, so he may start well, but expect the Jets the pound the ball with the running game after taking a lead. That should hurt his performance. As for Finley, he only had 3 targets last week in a shoot out, and this won't be a shoot out.Gostowski is a kicker, and he missed a 30 some yard field goal last week so he's not perfect. Finally the Lions D might have a good game, playing those same Chiefs who only scored 7 points against the Bills, that could be trouble...

    So here's what I think it'll look like:

    QB: You

    RB1: You

    RB2: Push

    WR1: Push

    WR2: Opponent

    WR3: You

    TE: You

    K: Push

    DEF: You

    It looks to me like you got a pretty good shot this week. Good luck!

    QB- Edge your team, Let's face it Rivers is a beast

    RB- Edge your team, Johnson is so hot and cold you don't know what hes gonna do and I never really liked blount, Ray rice is a monster and felix jones will have solid production against the 9ers

    WR- Edge His Team, lets face it his guys are slightly better but every TD for Vjax is one for Rivers.

    TE- Edge His Team, Finley is just plain nasty

    K- Always a toss up unless you dont have a kicker lol

    Def - Edge Your team, cmon this is a no brainer.

    Overall I say you win by between 15-20 points easy

    once I play yahoo I consistently in basic terms carry a million protection and a million kicker. i'd propose to drop eco-friendly bay and attempt to function yet another participant perchance ,for you a receiver, incredibly. for the reason which you will consistently play new england there is not any ought to save eco-friendly bay. plus their protection sucks in any case. then in a bye week you may consistently %. up a protection as a unfastened agent. your backs are ok,chester although will see appreciably much less time now that they have got peterson. chambers has no qb so he's iffy and holt is incredibly old, so i'd attempt to get a backup rb and a greater reliable wr. additionally for the reason which you acquire 2 solid qb's if mandatory after your bye weeks are performed, you ought to use a million of them as commerce bait in case of harm. in spite of the reality that bulger is your starter romo infact has greater weapon than bulger with retarded t. ownens, terry glenn, witten, barber and j.jones. defineltey furnish certainly one of them to a set this is short on qb's and ask for a very super participant in return. in spite of the reality that Holt is a huge receiver he has edged off appreciably, infact that became into the clarification why they added dante hall. in case you examine some magazines many are iffy on holt. yet you look to have a solid group. thats of course no longer seeing the different communities on your league..

    Rivers, Rice and Calvin will all put up good numbers this week. Your opponent doesn't have anyone who had a great week 1. I think it should be an easy win for you this week
