Should I start Bowe with Thigpen at QB or V Jackson, who I picked off the waiver wire this week?

Also....TE Ed Dickson at Houston or Cooley against TB?

Right now I have Bowe and Dickson in.

Bowe for sure. By the way, Cassel is the qb in KC thigpen plays for miami.

He practiced friday and is supposed to play. It's a must win game for SD and he has Rivers. I don't know which situation I trust more. But I will probably stay with Bowe.

Dickson doesn't get a lot of catches for Baltimore.

Cooley at TE.

Id go Bowe. The rushing game allows for a lot of pretty easy throws for Bowe. Despite his HUGE numbers this week, the rushing game of the Chiefs have negated any sort of double teams all season. His big plays have all been 1-1. Croyle is not on the level of many, let alone Cassell. But I still think Bowe goes for close to 100 and a possible TD.

Jackson I dont trust. He hasnt played all year (a few plays before injury in Indy) and is now coming off an injury. Floyd is Rivers favorite WR, so Jackson might not even play all of the snaps.

Thanks Laley....You pretty much hit it with my thinking on the Bowe status. Plus I think SD will stack the box to try and stop KCs ground game, leaving Bowe with some good opps.

The thing I like about Dickson is the fact that Houston is allowing 10 points a game to TE. But Cooley is the top targeted TE in football. I just wish he'd get some TDs.

The only catch about Dickson is that if Heap is playing he will be the TE getting the TD catches.

Well I just got Royally fucked tonight.......... I come in up 112 to 108 and I have peterson and the vikings D, he has ray rice..... Peterson has a whopping 2 points and the D has 5. Rice scored 12 in the first half. Talking about shitting the bed on a Monday night in the first fucking week of playoffs. See you next season
