Don't have time for the full article this week as I am away, but here is the consolidated version. With shorter explanantions to why I am making these suggestons.

Start Em'

QB - C. Palmer (vs the Browns, nuff said)

RB - G. Coffee (no real backup so will see 100% of the workload vs Rams, expect 20+ touches)

WR -Mike Sims-Walker (was 1 yard away from paydirt last week when he got hit out of bounds, faces banged up, and not very effective, titans secondary)

TE -V. Davis (looks liek the go-to-guy in SF, yeah I got two 49ers on my start em, don't laugh)

D - Bengals

Sit Em'

QB - E. Manning (giants will run the ball all day down the Chiefs throat)

RB - C. Portis (no real backup so will see 100% of the workload vs Rams, expect 20+ touches)

WR -TJ Houshmanzadeh (Should remain on fantasy benches for the time being, especially with Hasselbeck out)

TE - Z. Miller (hard to put up good #s when your QB cant throw a complete pass)

D - Jets (did not look overly impressive last week and face a tough task this week with the saints)

Last weeks post had some good suggestions, and also some that did not exactly work out the way I was hoping.

If some of you took my advice to sit DeSean Jackson, it didn't take long to bite you in the ass, as Jackson took an 80 yard reception to the house in the first quarter.

Don't fret, there were also some great calls such as starting Trent Edwards, Fred Jackson and the trio suggestion at TE of Dallas Clark, Todd Heap, and Dustin Keller.

If you payed attention to the "Waiver Wire Watch" you may have picked up some gems WR's like Steve Smith, Mario Manningham, Percy Harvin, Nate Washington, Laurent Robinson.

Check out this weeks start em, sit em after the jump. Also, use the comments section to post your own fantasy dilemma's and give each other advice.

Types of posts like this have not really been floating around this site much, I know its very TMZ-like but some of you may be interested in seeing these links. There's not much credibility to material this site writes, but nonetheless they have done a pretty good job of scowering the social networking world to find some interesting photos of some of the characters involved in the McNair story.

This page seems to have the most photos (sometimes takes a while to load).  But if you click on the top topics links on the left you can sift through a lot more.

Take it for what its worth, just wanted to share what i found.

from rotoworld:

The Titans were reportedly on the verge of trading for Torry Holt on Thursday before the trade fell apart.

According to the National Football Post's Michael Lombardi, the deal fell through after Holt refused to restructure his contract. Appearing Friday on NFL Network, Lombardi said he suspects the Titans are still the front-runners to land Holt since they were the only team interested in trading for him.

Hey,

Going to the game tommorow, first one of the year.

Wanted to have a tailgate before the game was wondering if any of you had any suggestions as to where a good place (parking lot) would be to tailgate.

thanks in advance.

I realize we could have traded up a couple spots to get Sweed in the 2nd round, but here is some not so encouraging news from rotoworld.

 

Rookie Limas Sweed is currently running as the Steelers' fifth receiver.

He's behind Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes, Nate Washington, and Dallas Baker. That's a strong statement about a rookie that many expected big things from this season. Sweed will likely be scratched on game days until (and if) he passes Baker.
Not saying he wont turn out to be a good player, but looks like he is not going to make an immediate impact with anyone which is what we need. He would of definately had a better oppurtunity to move up the Depth chart in tennessee as our WRs cant catch a cold, but this little info I just read puts a smile on my face.

this is pretty amazing. so happy for the dude.

if you can all go to www.espn.com as soon as you can to see this, if you are too late here is the link to the story.

finally some national recognition. its good to see this, what we have all been seeing for the last 2 years and now the rest of the football world is stating to take notice.

can not wait for next sunday! go titans.

 

hey, this message is to anyone. but i think pinoy titan will be able to answer it. im in canada and they are not showing the game in canada on NFL network until saturday night. I remember pinoy saying something about the game being streamed live online... just wanted to get the info for that.

thanks.

go titans

and this line will now make this post long enough to publish.

still five words short..... TITANS!

Titans fan from Canada here.

Looked at the NFL Network schedule online and they have a high school game sloted into 8 pm eastern tomorrow night (friday). WHATTT! why aren't they showing the titans game. I dont see it on their schedule all week!

anyone have any ideas on if they are actually going to show it? let me know!

thanks.

it says this post is not long enough. so i had to throw this sentence in here. sorry!

Hey all,
Huge titans fan here from Toronto, last year saw the titans in buffalo, the year before in cleveland. This year I finally head to Nashville to see a home game!! I am going this Sunday vs. San Deigo with one of my best friends who just happens to be a chargers fan.

Flying in Saturday morning and heading out right after the game on sunday. I'm staying at Best Western downtown convention center on 711 union. Seems to be close enough to Broadway street which is where i hear all the action is. Is this a good location? can i walk to the game?

Was looking for some suggestions on restaurants in the area and also maybe some hotspots for saturday night. We're both 23 year old guys that love to drink and have some fun out on the town.

Also im gonna be in nashville all day saturday, is there anything i should see? where would be the closest place nearby that i could go to stock myself up with all sorts of titans gear that i cant get here in canada?

sorry for all the questions but im sooo excited for this been counting down the days for months and any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hope to get a few responses. GO TITANS!

NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports Albert Haynesworth (hamstring) is likely to play this week.

Schefter adds that the Titans are fully expected to slap the franchise tag on Haynesworth in the offseason, rather than let him get away. It'd be an excellent move; Haynesworth would be playing for a contract again in 2008.

Love good news especially when it comes from Schefter, most reliable news in football. Except I did hate when he reported right at the beginning of the draft covereage that we were gonna take vince young... he took away the suspense. I wanted to hear it come out of the commisioners mouth.

Titans coach Jeff Fisher confirmed that the team is looking into an apparent weekend altercation between suspended CB Pacman Jones and injured DT Albert Haynesworth
The incident allegedly took place in Nashville prior the Titans departing for Denver, though a police spokesman said no altercation was reported, but they would look into the matter. Haynesworth made the trip, but was ultimately ruled inactive, while Jones continues to serve his one-year suspension. This won't help Jones' chances of returning to the team.

what is the reason behind this move? are the titans going to sign mike williams?

who is going to fill this void?

and how bout we all take a moment to stop and think about all the colts injuries... and SMILE!

dwight freeny no longer. dont think they are gonna get much of a pass rush from simeon rice.

Well here it is, one of the cases we have been waiting for now seems to be over. There will still be civil suits but that should have no effect regardless as im sure those will just be settled monetarily.

what does this mean for us?
to me i see it as that he has no criminal involvement in the vegas case, and in the eyes of the nfl this is and should be another charge pac has been let off of.

your thoughts?

Filled it with a special teams guy, LB Rich Scanlon, used to play with the Chiefs.

Linebacker but says he will be pure special teams.

I find it funny how at the beginning of the year it was so hard to cut the roster down and now we have special team specialist Rich Scanlon and Long Snapper Extrordinare Jeremy Cain.
