just had a question about who to start in my 2 rb league for this week.

I have Alexander who is playing the Saints
McAllister who is playing Seattle (obviously)
and Q at home vs KC

I like Q and I think he will get 1200 yds or mo this year but Alex and Mc are both proven to be pretty good.

I do feel however that typically in a game both the starting rbs don't usually have monster games but who to use.

anyway hopefully many comments will help

No matter what it's a crap shoot. You could go with Q over Alexander but then again, Alexander could score four touchdowns in the first half again. Yes I'm aware that this is no help, but that's a tough situation.

Your welcome. :D

You've got 2 great starters..I don't know how you managed to grab Duece and Shaun on the same team..that's amazing.. I would see if you can trade one of those studs away for a WR stud or something, the value has to be right cuz RB's are hard to grab...but you've got Q, any bronco RB should be starting on a fantasy football team..it's a given..this team can run the ball!

well i do think overall that it will be pretty even and if i put one in over the other there won't be too much difference, but i do love having a fantasy player on denver to root for but i only got q

my team is

mcnabb and green (2 qb league)
andre johnson, koren robinson, isaac bruce (3 wrs)
alexander and mcallister
mcmichael (miami te)
wilkins kicker
carolina def

bench currently is
chambers miami wr, q, harrington, and milli te seattle, hanson k, and tennessee for def

i am currently trying to drop hanson to pick up testaverde for a qb in week 5 because both mcnabb and green have byes

OMG, your team is loaded...

good luck this season..but you've defintely got a good team...

if you can't get Vinny, get Josh McCown from Arizona, a major sleeper, he's got two awesome Wr's in Bouldin and Fitzgerald, and once they get the running game to work with Hambrick and Smith... Denny Green has got them going in a good direction...

mccown does look good but boldin out for about half the season, fitzgerald hurt during preseason but is supposed to start game 1 worries me, plus its the cards. i live in az and its hard to pick up someone in az.

in a couple years at least look for the qb surprise to be navarre he looks good. he is like van pelt. he looks great but needs more nfl experience.

Always start Alexander and McAllister over Griffin regardless of matchup. Injuries and bye weeks would be the only reason to sit either one of those studs. How you were able to get both is unbelievable. You must have a bunch of morons in your league.



Ohh we have fantasy football forum so you should have posted this there.

for real, I'm still baffled on how he managed to get Q, Alexander, Deuce on one team...wow, I wonder what other temas have...

My league only has 10 teams,so we all got 3 to 4 studs...When I played on a 14 team league,you were lucky to get 2 hot players.I also agree to keep Q on the bench untill you see what he is doing and how Denver is going to use him..

I'm pretty much in the same boat, I've got willy green (cle), westbrook (phi), dillon (ne) and Tatum. i'm obviously not playing tatum b/c he's not starting, he's basically there for late season use in case he manages to win the starting job. I have mcnabb, TO, and todd heap with Denver/Seattle Def Lelie, watts, putzier, plummer, bledsoe, Todd Pinkston (phi)...I've just got too many decisions to make. 1 Qb, 3 WR, 1 Te, 1 TE/WR, 1 RB/Wr, 2 RB...too much talent for so few spots. Any suggestions? sorry for the total barage of names here.....

i do only play in an 8 team league i like it that way because you play each team twice and then you have your playoff games. if you have more then you could end up playing some teams only once and others twice and could be a disadvantage for someone.
