Fantasy Super Bowl Championship decision to make:

PPR Flex - Montee Ball - RB (Denver Broncos) or Dennis Johnson - RB (Houston Texans). I have Joique Bell - Detroit, Pierre Thomas - New Orleans sitting this week, with Eddie Lacy and Zac Stacy starting in my two runningback positions. I am leaning to the volume and touches with Dennis Johnson, or I could start Jacoby Jones - Baltimore Ravens, and this is a kick/punt return yardage league also. But for volume, I am torn between Ball or Johnson. Also, I have the Patriots, Steelers or Titans defenses? Which one would you guys use? Any assistance is appreciated.

Only thing I am worried about is, if Manning blows them out....all passing by Schaub, then the running game is nonexistent. I will start Johnson...hope I win with him

Well, Dalton had 40 points and Brees had 13, so that didnt work out too well.

I entered Mon night down 22, I had only T. Gonzalez and SF Defense.
Gonzalez caught a TD in the 4th to cut the lead to 10, and then it got crazy.
With 1:34 to go, San Fran runs a INT back 89 yards for a TD - got me 2pts for INT and 6pts for TD.
On the next drive, Gonzalez gets some more yards to cut his lead to 1.

With 5 sec left, ATL throws a hail mary and SF picks it off - giving me 2pts and the win, 108-107, on the last play of the game.

$600 for the championship!

I'm going to be creating a new league to run this season. It's been at least 5 years since I last ran a league, so I may be a little out of touch. I was wondering if any of you guys preferred scoring a certain way over the other, or how to handle the rosters. I've glanced over what Yahoo has as it's primary setup, but there are a few things I would've changed in the past. Anything you guys like/dislike, or prefer over another?? Any input would be helpful.

Anybody wanna make a comprehensive draft list for me? 20% goes to the winner if I somehow finish in the money.

no clue why I decided to join this, no interest in this at all. :lol:

It's so weird, I swear he really does look up to me as a mentor...for not just work but even down to PS4 stuff and how I view sports. I got him hooked on Lebby. :lol:

I wish I was his boss so I had more of a built-in excuse for some things lol.

Can never have too many TE's. TE is the sleeper position ;-)

This offer is still valid. Draft is tonight. I know nothing about Fantasy Football nor have I even clicked on any of the links previously provided.

This should be fun. :?

Ok I am in a league that scores 6 for QB TD and only -1 for INT. Everything else is normal for scoring. If I have a top 3 pick, do I go for QB or one of the big 3 RBs?

Depends on your draft position in the 1st round. Top three to four or five picks, runningback is ideal. I have the same dilemma in my draft tonight, in person draft party. Quarterbacks score 7 points per touchdown, and the qb gets the most points in this league. I rather get a top flight runningback in the early part of the round, then go quarterback in the bottom of the 2nd, early 3rd in a qb scoring league. I know someone will draft Manning in the top seven of the draft, but I do not know if he will duplicate the success he had last year. I have tried qb early in the draft twice in that league in the past, and finished top four, but when I drafted a qb in rounds four on, I have finished first twice. Luck or just a better overall team? It all depends on your cheat sheet regarding your scoring.
