I was having a conversation with MDC earlier this week, and I made an unforgiveable confession.

So normally, I wouldn't ask for pointers when it comes to FF, but this week I think I'm letting playoff jitters start to get to me a bit.

Ugh.

anyway, I'm trying to decide who to play at RB and at WR for this week and here's the list of players I have to choose from:

RB:

MJD vs. Oakland

Ced Benson vs. Pitt

Fred Jackson vs. Cleveland

Thomas Jones vs. San Diego

Right now, I'm leaning towards MJD and Fred Jackson, simply because not starting MJD is generally stupid, and Jackson at the Browns just 'feels right.' That said, I'm only hitting at about 70% on going with gut feelings this season, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Thomas Jones do some damage to the Chargers. Unfortunately, we're in a 2RB/3WR league with no flex, so I can't sneak both of them in there with MJD

Anyway, WR's:

Roy Williams vs. Philly

Eddie Royal vs. Arizona

Nate Washington vs. Indy

Dwayne Bowe vs. San Diego

Wes Welker vs. Chicago (Tom Brady is my QB)

At the moment, I've got Nate, Dwayne and Wes in my lineup. Unfortunately, I've had a bunch of hit or miss guys at WR all season, as you can tell. Roy Williams is either pretty solid or terrible from week to week, and Eddie Royal is Eddie Royal. Also, he's a friggin' Bronco, so who knows what you'll get from any of them any game.

Thoughts?

Any extra Unicorn Blood we could send these guys for the week?

Anything?

Hello, fellow AFC South fans! A new concept we're going to be trying out this season is a 24-hour open thread for fans of AFC South teams located in the FanPosts section of Battle Red Blog (a special thanks to Tim for allowing such nonsense).  A place where football fans can get together and chat about a variety of topics ranging from football to foot fetishes. Just think of it as your favorite bar/hang-out spot where you can get to know your fellow divisional fans on a more relaxed and personal basis. The point of this thread will be to bring us, the fans of the greatest division in all of the NFL, together for some friendly conversation and camaraderie.

• Nothing will be considered off-topic other than the usual religion/politics.
• Check your hostilities at the door. All previous problems you have had with other AFC South fans will be considered forgotten when you enter the thread. You may encounter others who seem to be ragging on each other. Please don't jump into the argument like you own the place. Things aren't what they always appear to be. It's probably people who know each other extremely well participating in some inside-joking or friendly ribbing.
• This is not a Game Thread! There are threads already dedicated to this, and for good reason . It's the same reason why I don't watch Pats/Colts games with my Pats-loving brother-in-law anymore. Things get crazy real quick. The Colts game threads will be hosted at Coltzilla.
• No trolling, please. If the only thing you have to say is, "Colts/Texans/Jags/Titans SUUUUUUUCK!!!1!!1" you're not going to make very many friends.
• If you are having problems with someone in the thread, please email me and we can work together to resolve the issue in-house. Our hope is that this thread will be self-regulated by the fans themselves and won't need any outside intervention. If you don't like what you see, treat it as any other unpalatable link you have clicked on in the past. Apply eye-bleach and move along.
  
• Have fun! We're all fans and fellow pathetic computer nerds. We have more in common with each other than we have with most everyone else in the real world. Try to remember that.
• Try to keep the thread "safe for work" since a lot of the threaders may be viewing from the job site. In other words, I love boobs, but my boss doesn't. He's a dick.

In the beginning, myself, peytonsurdaddy, and Shake, from BRB will be hosting the threads. As time goes on we'd like to add a representative from both the Titans and Jaguars fans as well. You may lobby for the position by sending cash proving yourself to have a level head and basically nothing better to do with your life.

Thanks,

peytonsurdaddy

Ok, at first I was going to make this just a Fanshot, and post the link (Here it is), but I decided to write a few words first. Now, not because it's necessary at all, but just because I feel like it, here's a jump.
