How will the Tampa Bay Buccaneers do this season?
Asked in: Allen Bradford, Arrelious Benn, Cadillac Williams, Connor Barth, Daniel Hardy, Earnest Graham, Josh Freeman, Josh Johnson, Kellen Winslow, LeGarrette Blount, Luke Stocker, Michael Clayton, Mike Williams (TB), Tampa Bay D/ST
They should vie for a playoff spot again this year. It will be tough in the same division as Atlanta. I think they'll go 9-7.
Who should be my 2 RB's for week one?
Asked in: Mario Manningham, Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Eli Manning, Reggie Bush, Thomas Jones, Brandon Jacobs, Ricky Williams, Todd Heap, Kellen Winslow, Eddie Royal, Chad Henne, Dan Carpenter, Detroit D/ST, Tampa Bay D/ST
Ugh.. You went way too heavy on your WR draft there amigo. RBs win leagues, even in PPR (there are RB's that receive too). Let's see.. Brandon Jacobs for sure, he is feeling good this week, and I like the matchup for him. I am not confident with Reggie Bush, or Ricky Williams.. and Jones? wow. I think Reggie Bush wins by default sir. Go Jacobs and Bush.
In my yahoo league what does the 3 under the waiver block mean for me?
Asked in: Mario Manningham, Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Eli Manning, Reggie Bush, Thomas Jones, Brandon Jacobs, Ricky Williams, Todd Heap, Kellen Winslow, Eddie Royal, Chad Henne, Dan Carpenter, Detroit D/ST, Tampa Bay D/ST
It means you are third in waiver priority. So let's say you put in for a waiver for.. A better RB (judging by your current setup), and 1 other guy puts in a waiver for the same RB, if he is after you in the waiver priority you win when the waivers process (usually Wed at like 2 am PST or something), but if he is ahead of you in the waiver process, he wins the pick. If the waiver goes through, your waiver priority takes a hit and you are usually lowered a few digits. If it doesn't go through, you keep the same number or move up (if someone ahead of you uses a waiver pick). Waivers are unlimited, but if everyone is wanting the same pick, then it's in your best interests to keep your number at 3 or higher.
Michael Turner or Jahvid Best
Asked in: Tampa Bay D/ST, Chicago D/ST, Jahvid Best, Michael Turner
I'm starting Best in a PPR league this week. His injury issues scare me though. If I had to choose between the two in a standard scoring league this week I think I would lean towards Turner. Atlanta has a ton of weapons so CHI will not be able to key on him. Tough call though.
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.
Tampa Bay or Cincy Defense?
Asked in: Tampa Bay D/ST, Cincinnati D/ST
oooh tough call here. Both are really hurting due to injuries, think TB has more players in which will miss out tomorrow so I think I would go Cincy by default
