NFL Week 11

by Johpin on Nov 17, 2009 12:10 AM EST Comment 11 comments

This is what my week 11 lineup looks like:

Drew Brees (NO - QB)

@TB

Wes Welker (NE - WR)

NYJ

Andre Johnson (Hou - WR)

Ten

Ray Rice (Bal - RB)

Ind

Kevin Smith (Det - RB)

Cle

Greg Olsen (Chi - TE)

Phi

W/R

Hines Ward (Pit - WR)

@KC

Tim Hightower (Ari - RB)

@StL

Beanie Wells (Ari - RB)

@StL

Michael Turner (Atl - RB)

@NYG

Jeremy Shockey (NO - TE)

@TB

Jerricho Cotchery (NYJ - WR)

@NE

Matt Schaub (Hou - QB)

Ten

K	Ryan Longwell (Min - K)	Sea
DEF	New York (NYJ - DEF)	@NE

I have Tim Hightower, but I picked up Beanie Wells right after his big game. Just read on Rotoworld that they aren't changing the lineup and will still have Hightower start. Who should I start for Week 11: Wells or Hightower @ St. Louis, or Kevin Smith @ Cleveland. Also, Justin Forsett, Jason Snelling, and Ladell Betts are on the wire. Should I drop Wells or Hightower for one of them? Thanks. Feel free to discuss your own team.

Edit: Also, I'm in a PPR league. And Snelling just got picked up so he's out of the picture.

Beanie has more upside.

Even though Hightower is the starter they both get about the same amount of carries. If I were gonna start 1 of the two it would be Beanie for me.

PPR Changes things.

Are you saying that you would start one of these guys for Hines Ward?

Forsett is a very intriguing option. He’s a big pass catcher which inflates his value for PPR, though he’s not going to find much room on the ground with a offensive line full of holes and a Vikings front-four that’s actually asking fans for a nickname they’re so menacing. That doesn’t mean he won’t catch those passes though.

Ward aside, if it were non-PPR I would roll with Wells. I could see in a blowout that they would give the younger RB plenty of carries. More info would help.

Sorry I thought I made it clear

I asked who I should start, Wells, Hightower or Kevin Smith. Smith is currently in my lineup but I don’t know if I want to start him despite the good matchup. Forsett got picked up so he’s out of the picture as well.

My apology, I misread and didn’t see Smith in there.

Yeah, I would start Kevin Smith.

I recently lost Ronnie Brown in a money league so I have to roll with Reggie Bush and Kevin Smith and I actually have a good feeling about Smith this week.

My team

lost Owen Daniels and Michael Turner. I clinched first place for playoffs but I’m still a little worried. I’m hoping Turner will be okay by playoffs. His playoff schedule looks great with Falcons playing the Jets and Bills.

Hopefully you still won. Wells outscored Thomas, I believe, by about 3 points thanks to his TD. Unfortunately, the game was such a blowout that the Saints gave Bell more than just GL carries.

Yea, unfortunately I lost my 4th game in my last 5.

All because AP, Thomas, and Ray Rice could not get in the endzone, not necessarily their fault. Then to pile on Warner leaving because of injury…

If Andre Johnson and Rob Bironas can pull out about 22 points tonight I will win…

Pulled out a close one.

Glad I dropped Matt Prater for Bironas this week because in our league a 50 yard field goal nabs you 7 points. Bironas just happened to get 2 of those along with Johnson’s 78 yards and a TD I was able to pull it out against the best team in the league.

I won =)

My opponent’s week is over, but I still have Andre Johnson left. I’m 50 points ahead of him, and I’m sitting at top of the rankings with an 8-2 record, soon to be 9-2. Yay!
