First week of the playoffs for me, I win and I'm in the money (four team playoff, top 2 get paid). We start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 flex, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Def.

My team:
QB: Rodgers, Sanchez
RB: Forsett, Moats, Moreno, F. Jackson, Buckhalter
WR: Fitzgerald, Moss, Holmes, Sims-Walker, Knox
TE: J. Finley
K: Gostkowski
DEF: Houston (assuming I get them off the waiver wire for this week)

His team:
QB: Favre, Palmer
RB: Jones-Drew, Mendenhall, Ganther, Bradshaw
WR: R. White, C. Johnson, Houshmandzadeh, Crabtree, Harvin, Nicks, Royal
TE: Gonzalez
K: Akers
DEF: Pittsburgh

I think I'm screwed. My only hope is, most of my players are playing against bad teams (Fitzgerald vs Detroit, Moreno vs Oakland, Forsett vs Tampa Bay, Moss vs Buffalo).

ESPN runs their playoff system on a 2 week head to head matchup. Next week will start the championship round.

I have 4 teams playing for in the hunt for championships.

My 11-1-1 team has a 99-58 lead

My Team:
QB- Manning and Manning
RB- Adrian Peterson, Pierre Thomas, Cadillac Williams, Chris Wells and Quinton Ganther
WR- Wes Welker, Steve Smith, Robert Meachem, Lee Evans, Percy Harvin and Miles Austin
TE- Vernon Davis
DEF- Pittsburgh
K- Shayne Graham

His Team:
QB- Hasselbeck and Warner
RB- LT, Joseph Addai, Cedric Benson and Tim Hightower
WR- Roddy White, Randy Moss, Hines Ward and Steve Breaston
TE- Antonio Gates and Visanthe Shiancoe
K- Ryan Longwell and John Carney
DEF- Minnesota and San Fransisco

I am pretty sure he wont beat me by 42 this week so that team is almost a lock to make it to the Championship round.

Rolling in the first week 148-98
QB's-Schaub and Flacco
Rb's-B. Jacobs, MJD, R. Rice, J. Forsett, K. Moreno
Wr's-S. Holmes, B. Marshall, D. Bowe, S. Smith (north)
TE-D. Clark
D-Jets
K-Janikowski or whoever has a good match up

I am in the semi's this week!

My team:
QB's Tony Romo and Eli Manning
RB's Chris Johnson, Thomas Jones, Freddie Jackson, Ahmad Bradshaw, Lendale White
WR's DeSean Jackson, Randy Moss, Steve Breaston, Jacoby Jones
TE's Kevin Boss, Bo Scaife
K's Nate Keading SD and Carpenter from Miami
Defense Phili and Seatle

Anyone that has Ray Rice should be good to go. I think he will have another big game.

In my ESPN league I commish, this week is our semi-finals...

16 team league, 8 made the playoffs..

I beat the #6 seed this past week by 35.

Now I'm up against the #2 seed, who I beat during the regular season. Hopefully I can do it again. One more win and I'm in the championship playing for A LOT of money...

I have
QB- Tom Brady
RB- Ray Rice
RB- Ricky Williams (or Frank Gore, but I'm sticking with Ricky I think)
WR- Marques Colston
WR- Devery Henderson or Lee Evans?
TE- John Carlson
D/ST- New Endglad or Houston
K- Rob Bironas

He has
QB- Tony Romo
RB- Ryan Grant
RB- Jerious Norwood
WR- DeSean Jackson
WR- Mohamed Massaquoi/or Antonio Bryant.. Not real sure with who he is going with yet, started MoMass last 2 weeks..
TE- Brent Celek
D/ST- Washington
K- Dan Carpenter

Anyone else sweating the Colts? I have Peyton Manning, Joseph Addai, and Reggie Wayne. I'm afraid they're going to sit this week or next... right in the middle of our playoffs. I'm the #2 seed... but without them I'll get killed.

Question fellas: Should I start Amhad Bradshaw NYG vs Was or Freddie Jackson Buf vs NE as my flex? Jackson has been solid since I picked up him a few weeks ago Bradshaw is hit and miss. Semifinals for me this week.

My gut says Jackson.

I have:

QB: Warner
RB: Gore
RB: Charles
WR: Andre Johnson
WR: Miles Austin
WR: Harvin (if he can't go, I'll play Devery Henderson)
TE: Zach Miller
DEF: Denver
K: Akers

He has:
QB: P Manning
RB: Maroney
RB: Reggie Bush
WR: Reggie Wayne
WR: Sydney Rice
WR: Austin Collie
TE: Vernon Davis
K: Lindell
DEF: Indy

I think my season is coming to an end this week. He's the #1 seed and has beat me twice this year.

I'm also tempted to start Alex Smith at QB to cancel Vernon Davis, who has destroyed me both times I've had to play him. But Warner is going against Detroit so I better stay with him since he has carried my team for a lot of the season.

I have Jackson in there now, just wanted to get some thoughts.

I gotta decide F Jackson vs NE, Moats vs StL, Sims-Walker vs Indy, or Buckhalter vs Oakland for my flex spot. Three weeks ago Sims-Walker was a no-brainer, but the injury has slowed him down a lot.

^Jackson maybe your best play but Moats against that weak STL D will make you consider that too!!

you have a great shot since the Colts are talking about sitting players already.

Exactly ... I have Jackson in there now but Moats has proven he can have big weeks against bad defenses, and St Louis is almost as bad as they come.

Yeah that's my only hope. I'm very thankful that Denver's D is going against a Charlie Frye-led Oakland offense....that could save me, also.

I definitely am. I have Peyton, without him, I have no chance. I'm not really worried about this week, but next week(which would be my Championship game if I make it) really scares me.

Do I start Hightower vs Detroit, Lynch vs the Pats, or Roddy White vs the Jets in my flex?

Hightower sounds like a better option but he shares too much with Beanie.
