Should I start Mike Thomas of Jacksonville tomorrow night or bench him to ensure victory?

Bench. What is the upside of starting him?

This is why I'm leaning towards benching. With a win, I'm first in my division, tied for first in the entire league as far as my record, and second in the league in scoring only to the guy that I'm beating right now.

ppr?

down .6 means that as long as he doesn't fumble a less than 5 yard catch, you'd still win

Just bench him if you're playing in a serious league. There is nothing to gain by starting him.

Start him if you're in a "fun" league and want to pwn everyone with a high score!!!!!!!!

yeh you should start him things are always screwed come tues. I'm up by 23 in my league and he only has A. Collie left. He already has 10 points but he's only a manning pass away from taking over..

If Vinatieri kicks another xp I'll be up 102.3 - 102.2 with Marcedes Lewis left tomorrow. I think I'll still start Lewis because points are tiebreakers and with my poor start to the season I need to try to get the points.

If points are the tiebreak, start him.

they have changed points 1 time this year on a tuesday, i believe. and it was because they charged a defensive TD as points against a defense.


and starting him to get points is great in the case of an overall points tiebreaker... that is unless your guy scores negative tomorrow and you end up losing your game and consequently miss the playoffs by 1 game

start him.

your total points could be a deciding factor if you're record is tied with others trying to get into playoffs

dude if his league is scoring every yard as .1 there is an excellent chance that score will change with the official scoring... my score has changed by . each week

Points are the tie breaker but to be honest, I'm not really worried about not making the playoffs in this league. 12 Team league, 4 make the playoffs

QBs
Orton
Vick

RBs
McCoy
Foster
Best

WRs
Ca Johnson
Ochocinco
Bowe
Knox
Thomas

TEs
Gates
Miller

I won one week with 80 points from Best and Foster on the bench.


Think I may start him though, there's no way my luck can be THAT bad. *knock on wood*
