Eli Manning vs NO
or
Matt Ryan vs MINN

Pick two:

Michael Turner vs MINN
Kevin Smith vs GB
Ced Benson vs CLE

Benson & Smith have the higher point projections (barely) while Eli's projection is a hair above Ryan's.

My thoughts on Turner is that the Birds are at home, may get a lead early and go into "run mode" even though he's the lower projection. Browns D (facing Benson) is coming off a decent showing containing Steven Jackson to < 90 yards and GB's defense (who Smith faces) is a sieve. Thoughts?

I'd go with Manning. The Saints D isn't all that great. When they win their games it's a shootout and NO usually just has the better offense.

I have the same problem at RB.

Michael Turner vs. Minn
Frank Gore @ Baltimore
Reggie Bush (predicted to get more pts than the other two) @ Dallas

I would never consider pulling Turner or Gore for Bush, but he's also never been predicted to do better. I think I'm going to leave Turner in vs. Minnesota, but debating Bush for Gore.

He had 41 yards rushing. If he doesn't score from close range that's a crappy day. The question is, will SF get that close to the end zone to give Gore the shot?

As far as my situation, I think I may roll with Smith & Benson at RB.

Tough choice. It would be hard for me to ever take Turner out of the lineup. He is quietly having a great year.

Some of my dilemmas this week:

For QB2:

Grossman @ Seattle
Bradford vs Arizona

Different league:

Flex position

Benson vs Cleveland
Murray vs Miami

I'm going with Benson & Turner. I can't see the Browns defense containing another feature back 2 weeks in a row. I have Kevin Smith starting on 2 other teams so it won't be a total loss.

Got a solid 5.80 points with Gore. It was him or Reggie Bush though... and go figure, Bush got 12.60.

At least my Baltimore Def stepped it up and made up the difference. I'm in 3rd in my league and the first two have already clinched playoff spots so I'm just trying to hang tight.

Got 5.7 from Kevin Smith in 2 of the 3 leagues I started him in before he went down. :(

Think Haden shuts him down tho and I doubt he's 100%. It's either him or Washington for sure.

BR Id roll with Johnson he had an ok game earlier in the year against Revis.

Rotinaj good point I forgot Greene had that injury go with Washington its probably the safe choice.

Couple potential sleepers I'm bouncing around - Vincent Brown vs Denver, or Brandon LaFell vs Indy? Floyd is out for SD, while Naanee is out for Carolina, meaning - potentially - more targets for each. Which would you trust more today?
