Who were the two guys? Uhhhh…Gilbert Gottfried and Carrot Top. There ya go, who can hate that?
Week 11 is here! My 9-1 team, faces off against the 4-6 Fudgehammers, whose name kinda freaks me out more than a little. Really, he might as well have named his team the Slavering Shower Rapists. This week is actually looking like a REALLY tight game. One small move made…I unloaded Jonathan Stewart for Bears receiver Rashied Davis. I just had WAY too many running backs, especially since I’ve found I’m starting a 4th WR more often than a 3rd RB in the W/R spot.
QB – I’m in a weird position this week where my two QBs are actually facing off against each other, and it’s a matchup that’s sorta screwing me over. Rivers is healthy but facing a Pittsburgh D ranked #1, so I’m going with a banged up Big Ben against a San Diego defense that is horrendous against the pass. The Hammers have Philly’s Donavan McNabb vs. a Bengals defense so bad it’s actually OFFENSIVE. AHAHAHAHA…erm…yeah. Advantage him.
RB – My RB position is a fucking mess. Portis doesn’t seem to have gotten healthier over the bye week…in fact, he’s WORSE, so he’s probably not even playing this week. Jackson is still out with a pulled vagina. And even though Willie Parker isn’t fully healthy, he IS going to take some carries away from Moore…San Diego is also pretty good against the run. So that leaves the LenWhale, who shall beach himself on a Jags D that’s nowhere near as good stopping the run as the Bears were last week, and Joseph Addai, who I think could have a nice game against Houston. The Anal Brutalizers reply with Jacksonville’s Maurice Jones-Drew (against a tough-as-nails Tennessee D), San Diego’s Darren Sproles (really just a kick returner, but a good one, and when he DOES run he’s facing Pittsburgh) and, for the moment, the Saints Reggie Bush. I say for the moment because Bush is out this week. However, the guy’s only other option is Buffalo’s Fred Jackson, a mediocre BACKUP. Slight advantage me, but this is an ugly spot for both teams.
Rec – I think Kellen can have a nice game against Buffalo. Breaston, Marshall and Bomber Mo remain in the lineup, rejoined by Santana Moss, who has absolutely demolished Dallas in recent years (and their secondary is a bigger mess than Amy Winehouse). He has the Saints Jeremy Shockey…good news, he’s facing the Chiefs…bad news, his own QB hates his guts and he was benched for the whole second half of last week’s game. At wideout, New Orleans’ Lance Moore also faces KC, and should go off on their inexperienced D-backs. Steve Smith of Carolina could post ridiculous stats against Detroit (though I’m hoping he ends up being a decoy and Mo steals the glory….ESPECIALLY in the red zone), and Marvin Harrison could be solid vs. Houston. I’ll call this one a draw, and this position could determine the winner.
K – Lindell remains, as his team (And the offense he kicks for) face the Browns. Carolina’s John Kasay facing Detroit could score about 576 points. Advantage Manhandlers.
D – New this week is Atlanta rookie middle lineabcker Curtis Lofton, replacing Joey Porter…I got tired of Joey’s whopping 2 tackles a week. The sacks are nice, but consistent tackles pay the bills. He joins the Raging Polack, Harrison, Hill and Davis. No changes at DB…Rhodes has already played, and put up a solid 23 points. Julian Peterson, Shaun Phillips, Michael Griffin, Chad Greenway and Freddy Keiaho all have potential to put up big stats for him…if they ALL do, I’m hooped. This looks like a draw.
Right now, I’m favored by a whopping 13, and for once I agree with Yahoo as this looks TIGHT. It’s also going to be one of those stress weeks, as we I have one guy going Sunday night (Moss), and 3 on Monday (Winslow, Lindell and Posluszny), while he only has one guy on Monday (Buffalo DB Jabari Greer). Several of those guys are usually big players for me, while Greer’s probably a throw in for his lineup.
