Are you surprised? Cassel has yet to show his arm (if he does have one). You'd think he would build off that TD to Moss in game 1, but its like he didn't even bother.

Not surprised, but it still sucks. I wasted a 1st round pick on him.

why on earth did you do that?

So I managed to snatch Aaron Rodgers off of waivers before week 2, and dropped him into my starting slot in place of Carson Palmer (what a bust this year). Obviously that's working out pretty well so far. :)

Puts my starting lineup as:
QB: Aaron Rodgers
RB: Adrian Peterson
RB: Marshawn Lynch
RB/WR: Clinton Portis
WR: Steve Smith
WR: Greg Jennings
TE: Tony Scheffler
D/ST: Chargers
K: Mason Crosby

It looks pretty stacked, but it's an 8-team league, so depth is pretty good at most positions. I'm hoping Smith plays up to expectations, that's the one spot where I feel a little unstable right now. I'd drafted Colston, so that was a hit when he went down. Thoughts on any WR sleepers?

And oh the ironing, I have Favre as my backup for Rodgers right now. :D

Because all the compeling running backs were gone and QBs are a much lower premium in our league because we only start 1 QB and 3 WR.

Oh god. You thought I meant Cassells :D

I would be an idiot if I'd taken Cassells.

More tough choices for me this week again.

McNabb against PIT
Warner against WAS
Rodgers against DAL

Not entirely sure which one to start. I went with Rodgers last week, dunno how he will be against the DAL defense.

Then I have the 2nd RB problem. I sat McFadden last week in favor of Chris Johnson. Johnson is playing Houston, and McFadden is playing BUF, but nursing a "turf toe".

Does that mean Bernard Berrian is going to be a legit 3rd WR option????????

McNabb and the Eagles marched down the field several times against the Cowboys - I don't think their defense is all that great. I honestly couldn't pick between the three, though. Warner probably has a great matchup. *shrug*

Here's hoping. The Carolina D doesn't look that great, so hopefully he can air it out a bit.

Conventional wisdom would tell you to start Brees...Denver allowed a ton of passing yards to San Diego last week...but then you factor in that his #1 guy went down for 6 weeks...and then you think about the freak named Calvin Johnson that Kitna is throwing to. I would probably start Kitna against the niners.
