Week 5: My Sunday Lineups
This is
just my run-through of who I have in my lineups today and basically what I am
expecting (okay maybe hoping-I like to win). I play in 7 H2H fantasy leagues
and compete in 6-7 weekly redraft leagues, so I have quite a few fantasy players
in action every Sunday. Since my list is long I am not going to review every
play, but more or less touch on a few here and there that I find of interest.
My Teams:
One of my
notable plays today is wide receiver DeSean
Jackson; I have him as a flex in two lineups today which I think is pretty
good. Jackson has a great matchup today against a Giants defense that is really
struggling. They are ranked 20th against the pass with just 4 sacks
this season and allow the 14th most fantasy points to opposing wide
receivers along with 5 touchdowns. If the Eagles have time to throw, Jackson
could be running free all afternoon.
In this
same matchup, the lack of pressure from the Giants front four is a big reason
why I have quarterback Michael Vick
in my lineup today. Vick presents all kinds of matchup issues for opposing
defenses and with the Giants allowing the 6th most fantasy points to
opposing quarterbacks, this looks to be a tasty matchup (for Vick).
In four of
my lineups today, I am starting tight end Antonio
Gates. He is healthy this season and the kid looks rejuvenated. He and
quarterback Philip Rivers have been
fantasy starts all
Although I
am a Denver Broncos fan and have them as my pick in their matchup today with
the Cowboys, I am starting Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray. First, he has looked good thus far this season and
second the Broncos are allowing the 5th most fantasy points to
opposing running backs (including the 7th most receptions to RBs).
This is a game where the Broncos could be up big and players like Murray pick
up big yards and a late score in junk time.
These are
just a few of my plays today and my thoughts for today’s matchups.
