Fantasy Questions

by Snuffleupagus on Nov 7, 2007 4:23 PM PST Comment 9 comments

The real world debate rages between SA and MoMo but the question I have isn't about who Holmgren should use more but who he will use more: should I start MoMo or SA on my fantasy team?

I'm in a point per reception league, which really increase MoMo's value.

So will Holmgren use the 49er game as a chance to pound the ball with SA in a desperate attempt to fix the running game, or at least experiment with what is and isn't working? Or will he continue to move toward a platooning system, maybe using a game the Seahawks should dominate as an excuse to see more of MoMo and Weaver and give SA some rest for his nagging injuries?

Advice?

I also offer up the comment space below for all fantasy questions from people seeking the collective genius of the Field Gulls readership.

If you get a point for reception

you might want to look at Weaver

V. 1.0, mutherf***er, know what I'm sayin'?

Bench both.

I saw no evidence of a platoon, only that Alexander was injured. That could happen again, but I wouldn't count on either of them. In most leagues, better options than Shaun or Maurice exist on the waiver wire.

Seconded.

I agree with all comments above...

why would you start either of them?! holmgren has already said that for the rest of the season this will be a "pass-first" offense...all but abandoning the running game.

there are better options out there...just look at denver - who knows what the hell is going on with the that situation....

well

I guess to defend myself I'm in a 14 team league with a flex slot (so each team has 3WR, 2RB and one spot for either a WR or RB). The result is a very deep situation at RB. All three of the Packers running backs are owned, just as an example.

Right now it is MoMo, Warrick Dunn and the other Adrian Peterson in my starting three.

i'm kickin ass right now in your league

that team is my best from top to bottom. if i was you i'd be worried about me. i may have it wrapped up just because of the fact i out-drafted all of you.

Are you serious?!

I'm in first, and almost a lock for playoffs.

And you out drafted me? I drafted sleepers such as Adrian Peterson in the 5th round (the good one), Marshawn Lynch, and Brian Westbrook. This is in addition to Kevin Curtis, my waiver pickups of Brees and Evans!

I'm not scared, hahaha, you should be...
btw, didn't i just beat you?

oops, should've proof-read...

Westbrook ain't much of a sleeper...still, my draft was a good mixture of sleepers with solid starting positions, and veterans with high upsides.

you had a decent draft too

thought i must also be satisfied with my sleeper picks of brandon marshall and my 7th rounder of big ben. throw in a lil' MJD, a lil' willie parker, and a lil' reggie wayne, and i'm beating yall's collective asses.

i started slow, but have won three in a row which includes two of the top three (you and team fingerbang) and am on my way to the top. i'm a virtual lock to win this week against the guy who hasn't done shit all year.

i'm a virtual lock to win the thing.
