Ok so in my league 1st place gets the choice of which team to play in the first round of the playoffs. Standard points format and you start 3 wr instead of two. Please decide from teams A, B, or C. I'm debating between A & C

Team A
QB- Wilson @NYG
RB Charles @OAK, Gerhart(or Peterson)vPHILLY, Ellington @TENN
WR- Megatron vBAL, Cruz vSEA, Tate @NYG, Harvin @NYG
TE Green @DEN or Reed @ATL

Team B
QB P Manning v SD
RB Lynch @NYG, Moreno v SD
WR Welker v SD, Amendola @MIA, James Jones @DAL, Gates(may be subbed as a WR)@DEN
TE Witten v GB

Team C
QB Romo v GB
RB Murray vGB, Forte @CLE, Bush v BAL
WR Fitzgerald @TENN, Jeffery @CLE, Torrey Smith @DET
TE Cook v NO

Stay away from B. Could make a case for either of the other 2.

Probably C. Megatron on MNF is scary.

Actually B isn't too hard at all. Manning on a short week with Welker out should be lower expectations for him. Last year on Thursday Night football Moreno ran the ball 30 times. This year Ball will split with him so I can't see them putting up that many points. Plus none of those WRs/TEs scare me at all on that team.

If anything, that Romo team could be dangerous. Cowboys have GB in Dallas, GB has a terrible secondary so Dez should have a rebound game. Forte and Jeffery should put up points on Cleveland.

I'd rather play A since it's the weaker of the QB plays but I woulnd't mind playing B either. Most Manning owners will be disappointed this week. I'm expecting 250 and 2TDs

I would not want to play C. Romo and Dez coming off a loss going back home against a bad secondary is much dangerous then Peyton with no Welker and a short week.

I would want to face A

Seattle isn't as good on the road. And Wilson is not a stud, IMO and could fizzle out on the road in NY. Same with tate and Harvin.
Gerhart/AP will be playing hurt. Ellington disappears from time to time.
Cruz has been a dud this year. Charles is a stud and will be a problem
Mega is, of course, a stud and will get big points.
But the big problem is TE. Green is a spotty unreliable play right now and Reed is hurt.

I'm thinking A as well. Wilson on the road across country seems in my favor. Just would have to brace the megatron Charles storm
