OK guys, my playoff hopes hinge on winning this week. My opponent had Willie Parker last night, and that hurt..so I have to make sure to get the best players out there!!!!
Points: 25 yards/point passing, 10 yards/point rushing or receiving, 1 Point Per Reception.
QB: Peyton (vs Jax) or Romo (vs NO). I always start Peyton. Romo has made me pay. Stick with Peyton who torched the Jags earlier this year and will look to bounce back from last week or go with Romo?
RB (Pick 2): Gore (vs GB), Henry (vs HOU), Fred Taylor (vs Indy), Julius Jones (vs NO), Marion Barber (vs NO), Leon Washington (vs Buf).
Right now I have Gore and Barber (since Jones has been a bitch this year). But Henry is playing Houston and doesnt have anyone to worry about platooning with him. I know Barber always scores, but who knows who Parcells favors this week. There is Taylor who plays Indy with an AWFUL Run defense, but Jones-Drew may take carries and/or TDs, but he still may be a great RB2. Maybe Henry is better against a Houston defense getting all the touches? How about Washington vs a Bills D that sucks? I just want to make sure I get a good output from RB2, whos the best bet?
WR (Pick 3): Driver (vs SF), Coles (vs Buf), Evans (vs NYJ), J. Walker (vs SD), Furrey (vs MIN)
This is the hardest choice. I know Driver for sure, but the other 2 are tough to pick. Coles seems like a good choice. Walker has Cutler now, and I see that hurting his value, but they will play from behind all day so he may get a lot of balls. Evans is way inconsistent. Furrey has been awesome lately, but again, hes hit or miss. Remember, I get a PPR.
Thanks for the help.... I really need it this week. I have way too many "OK" guys and can never pick the right ones!

| Ok, here goes. I'm going to go against conventional thinking here and say Romo, I really think this game could become a shootout and thus Romo will post better stats than Peyton (hard to believe I said that!). Gore and Henry, Barber is a good play, I just think Henry takes advantage of the matchup and outpoints Marion. Driver, Coles and Furrey. Driver is a no-brainer, Coles is due to have a big game and Furrey plays against the Vikes who give up pass receptions in bunches, Kitna will throw 40 plus times and Furrey will get a large chunk of that, Martz loves him.

I like both your QB options, but think I will say stay with Peyton Manning. Indy should need to pass against JAX, and Manning can do so against anyone. Gore is a definite start. I wouldn't take Henry as your second - he's got Vince Young at QB, and he might steal a short rushing score from Henry. I'd lean to either F.Taylor or M.Barber. Both split carries, but Barber is more and more the #1 back. Taylor should get plenty of touches against a weak IND rush defense, though. I rate them about the same but would start Barber. I think he can get some receptions as well as rushes - and if there is a short-yardage TD to be gotten - Barber will be the man. Also, the DAL-NO game should be high-scoring. I agree - Driver for sure. Coles is a good choice in a PPR league, because he usually catches a bunch of shorter ones. Then I think you have to drop Evans in as your #3. He is a big-play guy, so he might be either feast or famine, but he has a better chance of doing well than Walker with a rookie QB or Furrey as the #2 option against MIN. Good luck.
