I am currently in 4th place in my leauge. At 6-4, I am tied with two others. Three of the four losses I have have, came by 5 points or less! Points are a premium for me. I am looking at my roster, and wondering if I am screwing up by automatically playing my best players, as opposed to playing the match-ups? This week, my #1 QB, Carson Palmer plays in Indianapolis, against what has been a very tough Colts defense (or is it?). My #2 guy is Byron Leftwhich, going up against a pretty mediocre (at best) Titans defense, in Tennessee. Which guy would you play? All things equal, I wouldn't even think of sitting Palmer. Leftwhich puts up average fantasy numbers, while Palmer is a stud...the one very bad week Palmer had was against the Steelers defense...help?

No don't. But at least this week, I think palmer is a good play. Willis McGahee is one of my studs, but I always at least consider sitting him on the bench. Sometimes I wish that I had followed through.

Willis is my best running back, good or bad...

Yes, always play your studs. You'll end up outsmarting yourself if you try to pick and choose when to play them. Pick and choose other guys but always play your best players.

Palmer has great motivation to play well in this game. Definitely start him. Leftwich will not put up 300 yards and 4 TD, but Palmer has that ability each week no matter the defense.

Allright, I am going with Palmer, you guys talked me into it!  All the hype about that mathcup is making me a little nervous....

hehe, well I guess you couldn't go wrong this week, but Lefty really had a career day. You can't predict that kind of thing, I'll say that.
