McFadden or Ridley? CRITICAL WEEK

[zoo youk]

last week before play offs start, i am now 7-5 after being 7-2. injuries have killed me.


i have a plethora of backs. Forte, Moreno, McFadden, Ridley and DeAngelo Williams.

hurting at the WR position bad with Percy Harvin going down. starting Andre Roberts in his place. he had a big week last week but not reliabe.


guys available on waivers, Greg Little, Kendall Wright, Moss, Jeffrey. that is all that I can think about worth mentioning?

[zoo youk]

looks like now Roberts isn't even starting. FAWK.

gonna start Kendall Wright i guess

[dudekid]

jarius wright available? hes harvins replacement...could do ok...is pierre garcon, brandon stokley, or julian edelman available? all are better starts than the collection you have, IMO. also, i would definitely start ridley over mcfadden...mcfadden is going to share carries with marcel reece and they will "ease him back"....what is your current lineup?

[ttwarrior1]

mcfadden? i doubt he even plays, if he does, still not a good start

Peyton Manning
Malcom Floyd
Julio Jones
Kendall Wright
Matt Forte
Stevan Ridley
Knowshown Moreno
Aaron Hernandez

Texans D

Pettigrew, Roberts, Harvin (hurt) McFadden (hurt) and DeAngelo Williams on bench.

I think Stokely is available from the names you listed thats about it.

[dudekid]

personally i like stokley over wright

[romecloneout]

gotta go with ridley..mcfadden will be in a time share even if he does play..also browns defense has been decent this year

[zoo youk]

pisses me off off. i was 7-2, three weeks ago. absolutely destroying teams. consistently putting up 130-150 points. injuries suck.

[zoo youk]

i don't even know if I should start Forte. he still has the ankle issue and last week before he even left early Bush scored two TDs

[EmpireMaker]

Try to pick up Broyles, Garcon, Gordon, Edelman, Crabtree, Hilton, Lafell,

Lloyd, Givens or Avery some of these guys should be available.

[LT Profits]

Looks like MdFadden is stating. But I would go Ridley this week.

should I play McFadden over Forte or Moreno?

actually playing against Broyles. Lafell is gone. so is crabtree and garcon, edelman, hilton. whos gordon?

[zoo youk]

nevermind. he's gone too. this league is deep.

seriously these are the available receivers.

Greg Little
Randy Moss
Jon Baldwin
Brian Quick
Jerome Simpson
Michael Floyd
Rueben Randle
Stephen Hill
Joshua Morgan
OgleTree
Kevin Walter
Donald JOnes
Dexter McCluster

lol all scrubs. guessing Kendall Wright is the best decision out of all of them. considering he got 8 targets last week and texans give up the 3rd most fantasy points to WR.

now the question is do i start McFadden over Forte or Moreno

[BigSpoon]

I would personally wait and see with McFadden before starting him, Reece has done a good job in his absence.

[LT Profits]

should I play McFadden over Forte or Moreno?

Moreno probably gets to most work this week, Forte is nursing an injury too.

[soccerzyko]

I would start Moreno over both of those backs

[zoo youk]

I would start Moreno over both of those backs

yes but who is the odd man out. obviously starting Ridley and Knowshown. do i start McFadden or Forte or DeAngelo Williams in the flex.

Jonathan Stewart got hurt last game and Williams is start. Chiefs LB just killed himself....now idea how Chiefs heads will be in game...but who knows if Williams will get enough touches.

[dudekid]

out of those three i pick forte, he supposedly looks good in practice and has been sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber....plus, the bears will have a hard time throwing against the tough seattle corners and should use a rushing attack. good luck with whatever you decide

[MexicanStallion]

Those WRs aren't too attractive that are left.

I like Ridley and Moreno from the RBs you have mentioned in earlier posts.

[tatommack]

i agree with one of the above posters try and get garcon i just grabbed him cause jackson went down also id start ridley and if you have a 3rd spot moreno

[Grits n' Gravy]

Start either choice over McFadden. Until he can stay on field for 4 straight quarters he should be touched less than a salad at tt's house.

[zoo youk]

I am starting Ridley and Moreno that is a given.

i just have to decide to who to start in the flex. McFadden, Forte, are DeAngelo Williams.

for some reason my gut is tellng me DeAngelo Williams even tho he is the worst option out of them. I really think both Forte and McFaddens touches are going to be really limited this week considering how much success their back ups are having.

Jonathan Stewart is listed as doubtful so Williams will get double the touches McFadden and Forte will

[mcduggly]

McFadden isn't even expected to play, so why do you keep talking about him?

[zoo youk]

he was questionable until about 40 minutes ago when they ruled him out.

[convick]

Not really. Been ruled out for hours.

[zoo youk]

looks like gonna regret starting Forte over Williams. knew i shoula went with my gut.

[zoo youk]

nvm Forte with 12 yard TD reception. Ridley with a TD. wooo. now just need to rack up some yards.

[zoo youk]

winning 133 to 106. I have Lawrence Tynes left he has Dan Bailey. thanks for everyones input. appreciated.

Kendall Wright came up huge for me off waivers. was my highest scoring WR with 10 points

Forte got me 17 points
Ridley 13
Moreno 10
Houston defense huge with 22 points and deciding factor.

[Wulfman14]

nice job . saw this thread too late . def . wouldve gone with ridley though between the two.

[DJ Dalamar]

I didn't see mcfadden out till game started crap.

[Andy117]

I'd play Ridley next week over McFadden. Out for awhile with the injury and wasn't great before it.

[soccerzyko]

How did it go? who did you end up picking?

[playersonly69]

Every week is a critical week

[Grits n' Gravy]

Two words to guarantee a win: Danny Woodhead.
