Fantasy Football Question....

Ugly Duck · 09-14-2000, 12:31 PM

All right, I have some WR questions... Here's my team as of now:

Starters
QB Griese
RB S Davis
RB T Barber
WR J Horn
WR P Price
WR ***S Morris or Easy Ed
K Nedney (dropped Elam)
D Seahawks

Only question is at WR - here's a list of all WRs on my team...

Horn, Price, Morris, McCaffery, Gonzo, McKnight (dropped Westbrook) and Engram.

Which would you start Morris against SD (who gave up 116 and 2 TDs to Horn - similar size) or Ed (dealing with an groin injury, but sounds like he'll be 100%)????????

Gonzo has me puzzled. McKnight would be possible if they were not AT Washington.

McCaffrey...Even if he is in civi's he will probably match SlyMo's numbers...

I'd go with Ed. Oakland gave up lots of points to Indy and Denver looks to have an offense capable of the same.

Ugly Duck · 09-14-2000, 12:41 PM

Morris has had *ok* numbers for a rookie WR in the Chiefs' system. (there's that word)

I know at some point he will click, if only for a handful of games. The game is AT KC and KC desperately needs a win.

If KC leads with the passing attack - Alexander, Morris, Gonzo while including short dump passes to the FB ... I think they could be all right. If they try to beat SD with the ground game, it could be boring and ugly.

The freaking Saints lit up the Bolts... why can't Grbac do the same thing with his weapons???

I am thinking this is the week, actually I'm hoping this is the week for several reasons.

(a) it would suck listening to you all ***** about 0-3, although it might be fun
(b) that would make KC all that more hungrier at Denver in Week 4 and I'd hate to see them get their 1st win there - **** happens, you know
(c) I really need to start Morris and win my fantasy game ... I'd be 2-1!!!!!

One Q: Why not Engram?

It seems you have him buried deep on your depth chart behind two chiefs, an injured homer pick, and a recent FA pickup. I don't quite get that, honestly.

If all were healthy, Horn, Price, and Mr. Ed would be the way to go. But Rod Smith seems to be getting all of Griese's attention, plus McCaffrey's hurting. I'd go with Engram personally.

Engram worries me b/c the Bears are an 'unknown' and he's behind Robinson.

Reports say that Ed will be 100% ... he had 115 yds and a TD in week 1.

No real reason for burying Engram.

[i]If KC leads with the passing attack[/i] - mighty big if. I guess if you assume that Gunther and Raye have some sort of epiphany between now and Sunday, then maybe you should think of it. Honestly, it would take a burning bush or God Himself to change the current 'gameplan' of run no matter what.

At this point, I dont think they'd pass the ball if all 11 defenders were on the line of scrimmage.

Chief Henry · 09-14-2000, 04:57 PM

Chiefs, passing attack, isn't that an oxy moron? (I'm a moron cause I don't know if I spelled that right?)

On a more important subject, Get High, I mean Mile High, whatz the Terrell Davis sitch, think he'll go Sunday? I picked up Mike Anderson in my Sandbox league and as you know he went off! Still lost though, by nine points. [img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/mad.gif[/img]

Chief Henry · 09-14-2000, 05:01 PM

P.S.

I might go w/Horn, although can you trust an ex-Chief or an Aint?

Hell, go w/Ed!

I've also got Rod Smith in my Sandbox league, picked him in the 20th round [img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/confused.gif[/img] I kept thinking someone would pick him up [img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/confused.gif[/img] now his starting off with a hell of a year.
