Aside from being pretty weak at QB, I’d say you’ve got a great team. ---

I like this team but Cutler will give you fits. ---

Thanks. I am worried about Cutler, but Im hoping Martz still has a little magic left. Anybody advocate starting Palmer over Cutler? ---

By the end of the season, you’ll be hoping that someone fucks Jay Cutler in his insulin pump. ---

Stephen Jackson at RB woulda been good.He will be a beast this year. ---

I was about to start one of these threads myself, so let me jump on. This is my first year of fantasy football, so feel free to mock me. 14-team league, scoring is close to standard, but with a slight premium on rushing attempts. QB- Peyton Manning (Ind) WR- Steve Smith (NYG) WR- Pierre Garcon (Ind) RB- Cedric Benson (Cin) RB- Matt Forte (Chi) W/T- Vernon Davis (SF) K- Rob Bironas (Ten) D/ST- Indianapolis B- Jacoby Jones (Hou) B- Fred Jackson (Buf) B- Kenny Britt (Ten) B- Jay Cutler (Chi) ---

> [@Stringer](#): > > Haha no, Palmer sucks. I don’t think you’ll be saying that at the end of this season. OP, you have a glut of good RB’s and not enough quality wideouts. I’d try to packag an RB or two for a top tier WR. I also would start Palmer over Cutler, especially this season. The Bengals O-Line has improved and the team has added a lot of weapons for Carson to throw to. ---

I’ll jump on the already crowded Cutler sucks bandwagon. One of the features in Martz’s offense is a ton picks. You add a QB who throws a ton of picks on his own and the result is a fuck-ton of picks. Also, Forte blows. ---

Ah, one of the proud fantasy owners of Forte ca. 2009, there’s one (or two in this case) in every crowd.
