Hey guys one of the things I love most about what we have here is having the ability to voice opinions and our beliefs, things we notice and just fun facts and such. This really has nothing to do with fantasy football but it's something that I keep noticing every once and a while and I just want to see if any of you have felt the same way. Ever notice every now and then Sterling Sharp will appear briefly with a sexy blond co-host named Millisa Starks to promote their morning show. I gotta say it just seems like the two of them are getting busy behind closed dorrs. They just seem like they want to go at it, lol. Anyone ever notice the extreme sexual tension between the two of them or is it just me. I gotta say it's fun to watch.

So we have our little video of Sam falling to the B league on the league home page - which three will be featured in next week's installment?

Brown has too mcuh talent to go unlooked. There are too many teams that need true back talen in my humblest of opinions; Carolina, Green Bay, Jets, Indy, Detroit, Arizona, to name some.  Fumbling issues can be corrected. To the Foot's point, his size AND speed is sick.

I think the talent level of the current (or injured) backs pretty much suits the teams in every case but the Jets. Carolina, Detroit, Green Bay and Indy are getting as much as they need out of that position considering how their teams operate, and Arizona needs a QB moe than they need to replace Ryan Williams.

I tend to side with Ram on this one... with all that talent and size and speed, what was he doing in the seventh round? There's trouble there somewhere - and he's a "surprise" player who faced two bad rushing Ds. And Tiki Barber only got over his fumbling issues in the twlight of his career, and Ahman Green never played close to a full season after he got over his (which weren't so bad... Green never had more than 7 fumbles in a season and Tiki never had more than 9 - Bryce has three in two games).

Regardless, I'm trying to remember the last time a young talented back changed teams, and I'm coming up empty.

Week 14, isn't it terrible that we are nearing the end?

Difference makers picks:

TKO Riley Coopers DUB ... gotta love the Coop!
Fuzzy Seahawks Scape ... Even the Jets got 20 vs the Cards!
Fudpuckers Arian Fosters Sam ... Monday night benching?  Is it a hoax?  (can I call flip flop on this one if Treff flip flops on Foster?)  :)
Joe Peyton Mannings Wil ... this should get ugly early tonight, and Peyton is due for a record night, isn't he?
Lefty Browns Dawg ... Brady (the other Brady) back in Cleveland??  the stars aligned last week... last week.
Foot double CJ's Duff ... this should be the closest match up this week, but I'll take Foot by 10 yards.

perhaps i need to re-phrase my thoughts...yes I think he has feature back talent..no doybt about it.  You can see it every time he touches the ball.  There are at least four teams that would love to have his talent..even with the fumbling.  BUT, no, i don't see the Eagles trading him, or McCoy, or benching McCoy, or even making it an even split.  He'll get his touches, enough to make Shady owners pissed, but not enough to have stand alone value.
As for his draft position..let us not forget Preist Holmes and Arain Foster (just for starters).  he had attitude issues about playing tine, which is why he transfered from TENN. to Kansas St., and why he left K State after only two games.  So he had both attitude and expierance issues heading into the draft.  playing a full season or two..he'd have been higher, even with the attitude issues.

I'll defend his star potential all day long....cannot fathim how anyone can't see it.  However, his head does have question marks, and if anythung prevents him from eventually winning a fulltime gig sonewhere, it'll be that. 

Scape escapes Fuzzy
TKO takes out DUB
Treff terrifies Sam
Lefty deftly dumps Dawg
Duff rebuffs Foot
wil wilts Joe 

For next year, I have him in about the same category as Andre Brown. The main effect will be there that McCoy will no longer be seen as one of the handful of workhorse backs to draft next year, so they'll be at just as much of a premium as ever.

that's about where I'd have him too..would rather have Bryce than Andre..but roughly same, def. higher if your a McCoy owner

Sam over TREFF...................lol
TKO over DUB
Scape over Fuzzy
Dawg over Lefty
Duff over Foot
Will over Joe

BTW, anybody else sitting Decker this week? Last few weeks Peyton hasn't even been looking at him. I'm sitting him for Givens.
Sam

Okay...ESPN league (I'm the helper)

Ryan
Bradshaw
Law Firm
Calvin
Demaryius
Myers
Bills
Janikowski

Romo
DMC
Dallas Clark (dropped Gates two weeks ago)
Patriots

I still might put Romo in over Ryan, but I'm not sure, but the bigger question is DMC's return.  It's funny, because I'm contemplating putting Quizz in over him in this league!!  But seriously, I'm wondering if he might have a better week than BJGE?  Three solid weeks in a row for the Firm, but does he make it four?  Will this game be a shootout?  Which deepens the question of Romo over Ryan??  Does a Romo/DMC combo give me the best chance to explode?  (i.e.  shootout negates BJGE touches, and increases Romo's throws...if that's possible :) )

A.  Ryan/BJGE
B.  Ryan/DMC
C.  Romo/BJGE
D.  Romo/DMC


Also, been loving the Pats, but everyone forsees a shootout on Monday night, yes?  The WW is cleaned out on defenses (16 team league)... nabbed the Bills who should be able to keep the Rams in check at home in the cold.  Anyone disagree?


Game Time 8:20 est !!!  Gulp.

I'd go with A and yes the Rams aren't going to score a lot on the Bills IMO.........maybe 24 if their lucky.
Sam

who would guys go with this week. stick with Chris Johnson or go with Bryce Brown?

BTW, anybody else sitting Decker this week? Last few weeks Peyton hasn't even been looking at him. I'm sitting him for Givens.
Sam

I am really thinking about making that same move in my paid league but idk. I wish i knew the status of Amendola. If Danny dosent play I like Givens more than Decker. But you gotta think Decker will eventually break out again and he could very well this week vs the terrible Raiders Defense.

I'd stick with CJ this week Foot.

Despite Decker's inactivity the last few weeks, I'd ride him against the Raiders.

tHANKS tko TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION ID GO WITH c. Romo is hot right now and they seem to always be involved in a shot out. But if not  C then A would be my secong choice.

Thanks for the replies guys..........I think I'm gonna stick to my guns and sit Decker; if Amendola plays I can still Play LeShoure if I change my mind but Givens has had at least 8 fantasy points in 6 of his last 7 games. Just seems a safer play at this point and I can't afford another 1 point performance.
Sam 

Let me ask you guys what two rbs would you start this week.

A. Charles and Chris Johnson

B. Charles and Bryce Brown

C. Chris Johnson and Bryce Brown.
