How will the Philadelphia Eagles do this season?
Asked in: Alex Henery, Brent Celek, DeSean Jackson, Dion Lewis, Jason Avant, Jeremy Maclin, Kevin Kolb, Lesean McCoy, Michael Vick, Philadelphia D/ST, Riley Cooper, Vince Young
Eagles should fly to 12 wins. They're going to be a tough team to stop, even if Vick goes down. People forget how good Vince Young is.
Who is a greater risk: Ryan vs. Philadelphia (Home) or Cutler vs. New Orleans (Away)?
Asked in: Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons, Philadelphia D/ST, Jay Cutler, Chicago Bears, New Orleans D/ST
I think Cutler is the greater risk regardless of the matchup. He has some big weeks but tons of bust weeks too.
Which Defense: Philly or Tampa Bay? Which QB to start: Fitzpatrick or Big Ben
Asked in: Defenses, Philadelphia D/ST, Tampa Bay D/ST, Quarterbacks, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Ben Roethlisberger
I'd go w/ TB D and Fitzpatrick. I also had the Big Ben vs. Fitz dilemma. You could make the case for Big Ben since he's going to have to throw all day and will likely be playing from behind, but Fitz is a much better quarterback and with the hot start he's had, I don't think I can bench him. Cinci has a decent pass defense but I don't think it's enough to quiet him.
What's Frank Gore's deal today? Is Kendall getting a ton more carries?
Asked in: Frank Gore, Kendall Hunter, San Francisco 49ers, Philadelphia D/ST
He's playing, but Kendall Hunter is starting. It's really hard to tell right now on how the carries will go between them. Guess it all depends on how Gore's ankle holds up too. I imagine that SF will want to run the ball to try to keep Vick off the field. I'm gonna roll the dice
Is it time to drop the Eagles D?
Asked in: Philadelphia D/ST, Philadelphia Eagles, Defenses, Oakland D/ST, San Francisco D/ST
I'm a fan of picking up defenses based on matchups unless you have one of the top 2 or 3 defenses (like Baltimore this year).
Philly or Minn Defense. I have Philly right now and would have to pick up Minn. Now, I really dont want to drop Philly. So, I have 3 people I could drop. Eric Decker, Hines Ward or M. Manningham. I just want to be careful with who I drop cause I don't want anyone to pick them up.
Asked in: Philadelphia D/ST, Minnesota D/ST, Hines Ward, Mario Manningham
10 team, non-ppr. I have to drop one of the following to fill flex play this week. Fitzpatrick, Big Ben, Manningham or Philly Def.
Asked in: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Ben Roethlisberger, Mario Manningham, Philadelphia D/ST
Probably the D. Is it your only defense, and are there other d's available that are going up against terrible teams?
Which should I start?
Asked in: Kansas City D/ST, Philadelphia D/ST
Eagles. The Chiefs D/ST has only one good game this year and that was against a team with a new QB at the helm. Both teams are playing good offenses so I'd go with the more proven defense (although the Eagles have been only decent this year).
