Fantasy football advice

I’ve been getting hammered this year, so thought I would finally bite the bullet and ask for advice.

I can start two runningbacks out of LaDanian Tominson, Marshall Faulk and Edgerrin James. Standard scoring: 6 points for a TD, 10 pts per yard.

Edge hasn’t been up to much this year, but he faces a great matchup against a shaky Jets run defence. Faulk returned last week, got a couple of scores early on but not too many yards. He also has a good matchup v Chicago. Tomlinson has been inconsistent at times, but he was great vs Minnesota on Sunday; Doug Flutie’s return may be helping him. SD however face a slightly tougher Denver run defence.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Go with the best guy to date and when it comes to premier players, don’t worry about matchups:

Faulk is a must. St Louis scores even when they play against smothering defenses. Faulk has proven himself. You want more proof, then you need help (which brings you here!)

Tomlinson isn’t inconsistent - his team is always behind so they throw to catch up. If Flutie lenss balance to the team, then Tomlinson is the man. James health is still questionable.

Flutie will keep his team competitive, and that bodes well for their running game. Tomlinson, even on a shakey team has proven explosive, and he gets better with Flutie.

I want to know how you got those three running backs on one team.

That’s what I want to know, too. None of them should have lasted out of the first round.

Although, I did luck out with Deuce and Shaun Alexander. But I packaged Shaun and Hines Ward to grab Ahman Green.

So now my two backs are Green and Deuce, my QB is McNair, my WRs are Holt and Glenn, my TE is Becht and my kicker and D rotate.

Yeah, I like my team.

Anyway, I would start Tomlinson and Faulk.

With those RBs, I have a feeling she’s not getting hammered because of her running game. What do your WRs look like, Irishlove?

And don’t you mean 1 pt. per 10 yards?

Well, we play in a keeper league and one guy has Green, Faulk, and Jamal Lewis.

One guy has Priest Holmes, Ricky Williams and Clinton Portis.

I don’t know that I’d go with Edge. While the Jets run defense is indeed one of the worst in the league (as witnessed last Sunday) they also face a loss in Mickens (CB) who is a possible for this week. Seeing as he is himself a backup I would think this team would be all about passing.

Tomlinson and Faulk here…

Thanks for the advice all.
For the curious: I have those three only because I play in a small league; everyone has great players.

And for the record I am a male. My ex-gf was Irish.

being that Harrision may be out this week, I would start edge, and Tomlinson.

Faulk is risky because he doesn’t look like faulk right now, but Bulger looked horrible last week, so they may be running more than normal…

either way I think you will be ok… I would guess Faulk, and edge shoudl be somewhere around 15 pts for you this week… Tomlinson should get more.
