    I think Wilson screwed everyone over. Now that he's definitely out of my starting lineup this week, he'll probably have 150 ttoal yards and 2 TDs

    I think it would be a mistake to pull him out of your lineup that fast. He is all they got.

    They didn't sign Jacobs to be a bench warmer. I'm guessing it will be RB by committee until one of them Wilson can show he can be a feature back. His pass blocking is really bad and Coughlin obviously doesn't have much faith in him right now. I don't have to start Wilson anyways, since I have Rice, Richardson, and Murray.

    Thinking I'll start either Julius Thomas or Edelman as my other Flex this week. Peyton loves throwing it to his TEs and Thomas looks like a beast. Edelman is basically all Tom Brady has in the passing game this week

    They were going to sign a back before Wilson had his fumble issues, and Jacobs is like 32, and out of game shape. Consider he was 5th on the depth chart in San Fran when he played last (2 years back?). He is insurance pure and simple. I also didn't realize you were in a 5 team league.

    Either way, Wilson is playing the Broncos D, and they shutdown Ray Rice in week 1. If Wilson were my No. 2 RB, I'd probably still be playing him. That is, if Joique Bell was not on the waiver wire.

    And I don't expect Jacobs to get much more than 5 carries if he plays at all. But I do expect it to be more of a RB by committee. I doubt Wilson sees over 20 touches this week.

    Still, he is a homerun hitter in a backfield full of waiver wire talent. He did the same thing last year. Might be first game jitters. He is basically all they got, and the NYG aren't good enough to have hiim sit. As Coughlin said " We need him".

    It would be absolutley foolish to just give up on Wilson this early. LIke tapate said, he is a homerun threat everytime he touches the football.

    I missed out on almost every single one of my claims on the wire. Really like the Eagles D this week. They will get burned, but they looked aggressive against Washington. They will creat some TO's.

    Amendola\Vereen injuries have killed me in a 14 teamer. I was going to start Vereen over Lamar Miller this week. Amendola went down and someone already had Edelman. Gotta start Mike Williams TB instead. Yuck, but he is a TD killer.

    David Wilson is ****in terrible. I've watched him since his VT days. He's got speed and may be good for 2 long runs a year, but on a per carry basis, he's bad. At best, he should be a 3rd down back (tho he can't block). What a terrible draft pick.

    So would you then describe Wilson as a failure?

    Isaac Redman was my big disappointment from week 1. I was looking forward to Bell getting back in the lineup this week, but that isn't happening. Redman is still going to get a chance to prove himself according to Tomlin. I don't know if I want him in my lineup though.

    Edelman had solid night for me in the flex. Not great but solid. Guy I'm playing against had Ridley as his #2 rb, so I'm happy he laid an egg yesterday.

    Need rice and richardson both to have good games (which I think will happen and I need Megatron to go off versus Arizona

    Amendola is going to kill me in one league. I had Mike Williams as my WR3 to sub, and he produced SQUAT. Vereen going down also hurt. Good to see life from Lamar Miller, that kid needs the full time starting job.

    Ray rice and trent richardson are killing me. Rice has like 13 pts total on the yr. Richardson 15 I think. I win the last two weeks if these guys play up to abilities. Ravens coaching staff are morons as well. Rice is by far their best player. So whats their solution to get the offense going? Give him less touches.... Idiots.

    How serious was Rice's injury? It was a non contact injury, so it can't be very good. Wilson shat the bed again...

    T rich had faced some decent D's to this point. Would look for him to light it up going forward.
