There will likely be questions asked and much advice given by many of us.

I will begin....


Week 1, start TE Dallas Clark from Indy or Pats' Aaron Hernandez

With Manning out I was leaning towards Hernandez, but then again with Colts' QB Kerry Collins still not even knowing the Indy Playbook, he may look to the TE more.

Opinions......?

I agree, dumpoffs to dallas clark will happen a lot, and remember the houston secondary is AWFUL...... dallas clark is a must must start...

too many weapons on NE, woodhead, ellis, welker, ocho, branch, gronkowski, hernandez...that is a lot of looks for tom brady

clark is the man to start and i like it better that peyton isnt playing, collins will use clark as a security blanket

Would you start Romo on the road against NYJets or Kolb at home vs Carolina?

kolb at home vs panthers!!! cards have a pass first offense

jets have two of the best CB in football.. cowboys will be lucky to score a passing TD...

Leaning Foster and Gore, and Stafford.




Agreed......... No way I would start Forte with Marion Barber ready to steal goal line carries.

And I expect Detroit to beat my Bucs this week with Detroit's offense dicing up Tampa's D and the Lions' defense putting the Heat on Freeman...

I'm most worried about an early foster tweak that pulls him from the game by halftime. If I was sure he'd get carries, no brainer. Forte and Gore = guaranteed carries, foster not so much,,,

Only took forte for trade bait, but it might be a good idea for me to wait a week or two to make sure gore and foster are healthy before I ship him...

</TD></TR><TR><TD class=vaLink>This report was from the Toronto Globe and Mail, and the Bills confirmed Jackson's stance atop the depth chart in their Week 1 press release. C.J. Spiller just didn't do enough to unseat the incumbent. Jackson rushed 16 times for 85 yards in the preseason and will get the majority of snaps against the Chiefs Sunday. Spiller is headed for a return and change-of-pace role. Neither back offers upside behind Buffalo's anemic offensive line.</TD></TR><TR><TD class=vaLink>
