Should glue Prince to Welker on Sunday. That, or have constant safety help for Ross/Webster/Williams; whoever lines up against him in the slot.

What teams usually do to the Giants with their TEs is what Manning is going to do to us with Welker.

Need the defense to play huge, and Eli to keep his head out of his ass all game to have a shot tomorrow.

if Prince is on Welker, who's going to cover Demariyus Thomas?

I think Welker is the bigger threat due to the inability of our LBer core to cover TE/Slot receivers. I don't know if Prince can play in the slot, but if he can, Welker should be his guy.

Webster looked good on Sunday, slide him in against Thomas.

Either way, it's still Peyton Manning throwing these guys the ball. I'd feel way more comfortable with Connor in there. Boy does his injury ****ing suck. Color me as a guy who had no idea a neck burner (I don't even know what that is, to be honest) could sideline someone for a whole year.

Herzlich better up his game. Williams too.
 
Yea the Broncos have so many weapons.

I think you have to put Prince on Thomas. But Thomas/Welker are gonna have free reign in the slot, barring a monumental effort from the Giants' LBs and Safeties.

Even if you gameplan those 3, Peyton will get Decker the ball consistently and Decker is good enough to have a day. Plug one hole and 2 leaks spring up. That's why to me the pass rush will be everything. Only chance is to take away Manning's time.
 
The Giants passing game is every bi as lethal as the Broncos. The issue is we're more prone to turnovers.
 
Finally happy with a Madden team I drafted today. I didn't draft only players I liked this time, so it turned out a little better than normal ;) Even if I still have Nassib as my starting QB, and he got turf toe last game, so I had to turn to my backup.... Mark Sanchez :shakehead

Luckily for me, the computer auto-drafted Greg McElroy, so once again, Sanchez is on the sideline. There's something satisfying about watching Mark Sanchez hold my extra point attempts :)
 
You drafted a Madden team and ended up with Nassib as a starting QB? You must be going defense or run game, pretty heavily.

I draft a top passing QB high, always, and back him up with a scrambler that I put in certain packages to throw off defenses.

Haha no, I just love Nassib so I always throw him into the fire first thing. And, maybe this is just a personal thing, but I find the passing in this game pretty easy, doesn't even matter who your quarterback is. Through three games Nassib's completion percentage is over 65%

My RB is Geo Bernard ;) and he's leading the league in yards and TDs right now :laugh:

I have pretty sick defensive and offensive lines. I try to stack up there because I think they're pretty important in this game. Even if I always draft Margus Hunt, and Justin Pugh too... my two weakest links in the trenches.
 
If you are in a touchdown heavy league, go with Jacobs, because he's going to be getting all the goal line carries.

Beyond that not much though. He isn't a YPC guy, and will be getting a lot of the grunt details on passing 3rd downs.
 
Apparently Jacobs isn't even listed as an RB on the Giants depth-chart today, and he's listed as "other"

I'm going with Wilson... Lord have mercy.

Another question... Who is going to be the on the field general for the defense today, trying to play the matching game with Peyton... Herzlich? Is that player called the "mike" or the "mic"?

I had Wilson as my flex last week, let's say I won my matchup despite him. Alfred Morris took his place in my lineup tonight.

I dropped Olsen for Cook with Gronkowski still out, Olsen currently ahead of Cook with 10+ points. Currently looks like a big week 1 overreaction.

Marshall is having a huge night though, hopefully he can keep it up in the 2nd half.
