If Shady McCoy is still out you have to go with Bryce Brown, he looked fantastic last week.

Ok guys, I win I go to the playoffs need your help filling out the rest of my line up this week... QB (Matt Ryan) 2 RB (Steven Jackson home against SF) (Ryan Mathews home against Cleveland) (Knowshon Moreno home against Bucs) (McFadden home against Cleveland) (Matt Forte home against Seahawks) WR - (Hakeem Nicks) (Julio Jones) (Julius Elderman) (Malcolm Floyd) I do not know who to start at RB... also don't know who to start at the flex position... any help please

[scdn]

If Forte is healthy, I would go Mathews and Forte at RB and use your WR for flex.

[Basel]

Darren McFadden (assuming he's playing) at home vs. Browns.

Beanie Wells on the road vs. Jets.

Outside of his turnovers, yes.

Who cares about the turnovers, dude had a mammoth game even WITH them. It's about the number of fantasy points he scores, that's it. Black or white. He dominated last week, end of story.

@MicCheck

RB - Forte and McFadden
WR - Nicks and Jones
Flex - Knowshon Moreno

Would I be crazy to start Bryce Brown over Trent Richardson this week? Doug Martin and Adrian Peterson are my other two running backs so I can afford to make a gamble.

[scdn]

I think so. Cowboys D a lot better than Raiders. Plus box will probably be stacked for Brown.

I think this week it might be smart to play Richardson given the matchups, but this should be a decision you're faced with a few more times this season and I don't know that it's going to be Richardson every time.

Which two?

Moreno @ Ravens
Ridley vs 49ers
Law Firm @ Eagles
Bryce Brown vs Bengals

[BlakeJesus]

Yikes that's a tough spot. Bryce Brown for sure, after that it seems like a toss up. Law Firm has the best matchup, but Ridley is the best talent. I imagine that the Pats if are still going to score SOME points against the 49ers, so he's definitely somebody to consider. Moreno played well last week (helped me win my playoff game), and this isn't the Ravens of old. He worries me more than everybody else because I feel like he's been playing above his head, but if you feel comfortable with him he seems like he might be the best option for your RB2 based on recent trends.

Law Firm is solid but not spectacular, Ridley has a tough matchup but has been a td machine, and Moreno has gotten a solid number of carries but is averaging less than 4 yards a carry.

I can't decide.

[BlakeJesus]

Moreno looked really really good last week, and they are feeding him the ball against a defense who's given up the 10th most fantasy points to RB's. Ridley is a habitual overacheiver though, he has been very consistent. But man, Law Firm has now eclipsed 100 yards in 4 straight games and Philly is a favorable matchup.

I think you're in a good spot any way you go, so at least that's a bonus at least. When it comes down to decisions like this it's something you should trust your gut on. If you've been riding Ridley all season that's probably the guy you should go with, but each guy has a real case.

Second round of playoffs.

Miles Austin vs Pitt
Roddy White vs NYG
Sidney Rice vs Buff
Anquan Boldin vs Den

Choose three.

[scdn]

Depending on how healthy Austin is, probably the first 3, especially if Bryant is out. Not that it affects this decision but a thing to note that the Buffalo game is Toronto so it will be indoors, not at Ralph Wilson.
