Ok, who's "the guy"?

Housh or Boldin?

Housh looks to benefit from a shootout between Indy and Cincy. Boldin looks to be healthy enough to benefit from a shootout between AZ and The Lambs.

I'm leaning towards Housh only because of Boldin coming off an injury.

Check this lineup out though:

QB - Peyton Manning
RB - Larry Johnson
WR - Reggie Wayne
WR - Housh
TE - Gates
RB/WR - Jordan
K - Feely

We play IDP, so I got O Thurman, D ONeal, M Peterson and Polamalu.

Scoring:

TD - 6
Completion - 1
Incomp. - (-1)
Yds Psg - 1 for every 50
Yds Rushing - 1 for every 10
Receptions - 1


That's the basic scoring system....no bonuses for milestones like 100yd games etc. Kind of a whacky scoring system, but whatever...I'll play to the league rules (see "FF to FF Hell WWYD" thread).


So who should get the start....Housh or Boldin? Or does it matter cuz I'll clobber the fuck out of my opponent anyways?

I would start Boldin, personally. The Bengas have a lot of offensive firpower and they spread the ball around. But the iNdy D is tough and I expect Cincy to try and run the ball tokeep out of Peyton's hands.

The Cardinals will have lots of possesion against the Rams and Warner went for 350 plus last week.

BTW, I also hav IDP and I have O. Thurman. My best FA pickup of the year.

Boldin is the smart play. Indy's pass rush is going to give Palmer headaches all day- other than Pit (which didn't blitz much) Cinnci has not faced alot of tough pass rushes this year. They make points off turnovers- and the Colts don't make alot of them. Plus- Johnson may get more touches as SUNW said..

Warner is throwing in Zona- so you know their will be 300-400 yards put up through the air- alot of chances for Boldin. Go with Anquan

My only concern is Boldin's health. If we're talkin bout a healthy Anquan Boldin, then it's a no brainer. As long as I'm assured he's not having any big effects from the injury (latest report is he practiced at full speed and seems set to go), then Boldin will be the call.

BTW, Wednesday, Demorrio Williams was my huge IDP player for the first part of the year, but I dropped him on the bye week, and some chump stayed up all night just to nab him off waivers when moves could be made. Pissed me off....until Mike Peterson becamse Williams' replacement.

SWEET!! :lol:

Yeah, I picked up DeOnterrio Williams as FA as well as Antonio Pierce. Both of them, with Thruman, are monsters, but I can only play two of them at a time
