I'm in a fantasy league with my family, and me and my uncle share a team. We are in the Super Bowl for the first time ever, and was wondering if you guys had any tips on who i should start. We use CBS sports line, if the scoring matters alot, then ill edit it in.

Kyle Orton v GB
Adrian Peterson v ATL
Derrick Ward v CAR
Brandon Marshall v BUF
Wes Welker v ARI
Roddy White v MIN
Stephen Gostkowski v ARI
Cowboys DST v BAL

Big Ben v TEN
Reggie Bush (out for season) v DET
Chester Taylor v ATL
LenDale White v PIT
Kevin Curtis v WAS
Jason Witten v BAL
Josh Scobee v IND
Jaguars DST v IND

thanks for any help

Um, I'm not sure right now, but use this website here and add your scoring in.The only downside is if your league uses complex scoring, it doesn't work.

Also, nice job on making it there! Last year, my first year, I made it to a championship, but lost.

Don't be condemned to repeat my mistakes! Check frequently!

I would probably put Big Ben over Kyle Orton and I might switch Ward with Lendale, but then again Ben and White are playing 2 tough D's so I guess go with your instinct.

apple4960 · **Posted:** Fri Dec 19, 2008 4:22 pm

Ben is not playing that tough a defense. The Titans haven't really proved themself much, and they just lost last week even. Start him, definitly.

Edited in who they were playing, also putting in teams def ratings from cbs sports line

GB- 11 pass,
TEN- 9 pass
ATL- 5 pass, 13 rush
CAR- 21 rush
BUF- 14 pass
ARI- 25 pass
MIN- 20 pass
BAL-15 pass
PIT-3 rush
WASH-31 pass
IND- 10 pass, 30 rush

Start Adrian Peterson. You need to win. Ride your studs. However, since you're in the championship, you should aleready know that.

I wouldn't be all that helpful, cus my team just finished its worst season in its 5-year history at 4-10. I know one thing, I'm using my first three picks next year on receivers and a TE, cus that's where I got virtually no production. Eh well, in a few months time, my aussie rules league starts...and that, I intend to win come September. :twisted:

hope you didn't start the cowboy's D...

mike94100 · **Posted:** Sun Dec 21, 2008 11:34 pm

The Cowboys got me 7 points, so its all right, Roddy White and Adrian Peterson screwed me over with a combined 15 points, even my kicker, Gostkowski, scored 17. Not sure if ill be able to win, but ive seen miracles happen. Like last week, T.O. scored 6 and the Cowboys scored 12 to get me in the Super Bowl.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES? YES! :lol:

What's the score?

mike94100 · **Posted:** Mon Dec 22, 2008 3:51 pm

Need Orton to score 8

apple4960 · **Posted:** Mon Dec 22, 2008 6:48 pm

ORTON! ORTON! -lol-

mike94100 · **Posted:** Tue Dec 23, 2008 8:13 am

I WON!!!!!!

130 to 125. I got worried when Orton only had 1 point through the half, but he came out with 13.

Wait, so you're the champion? If so, awesome!
I'm in four leagues, here's how they turned out:
My League: Championship vs. 7 Seed
I'm the four seed, and I think I can win easily if I look at the waivers for a long time.

League 2: Lost in first round

League 3: Championship vs. 3 Seed
I am absolutly dominating in this league. If I lose, I would be somewhat like this :jawdrop:

and this

League 4: Lost in first round

So, I'm hoping to take a championship trophy home in at least one league.

The odds are with me!
