I think its definitely a coin flip, but I'm going with Romo in a better matchup. I still like Eli this week, but his history against the Wash isnt the best.

At RB, I like Turner and Sproles. I'm not trusting Grant to break runs like last week and Bradshaw with his foot and splitting carries. I wouldnt mind gambling on either, I just think Sproles is a safer bet.

Good luck this week!

Eli Manning NYG vs. WAS | Start’em

When Eli stated he should be considered in the same class as Brady before the season started everyone laughed – but quietly he is on pace to break Dan's passing record along with Brady, Rodgers, and Brees. He is playing the best football of his life and if anyone watched the Skins/Pats game last week it was clear the Skins have given up. The Skins might be one of the worst tackling teams in football so any pass Eli makes could go to the house.

(from my start/sit article - and I know this is close but I only like Rodgers, Drew, and Tom over him this week - crazy I know)

For the backs I would go McGahee based on the fact his match-up is amazing and I think Denver will run a ton to control the clock

Turner - I know he has not produced as of late but out of your options you have to go with the guy that will get 20 touches

QB - This is a coinflip, but I give the slight edge to Romo. I think the Cowboys are going to put up a lot of points against the Bucs, and Romo should have a big game.

RB - If this is a PPR league then I think Sproles needs to be one of your guys. The Saints have a great matchup, and I think they will score a ton this week. For your RB2 I would go with Turner. The Falcons should be playing with a lead, so I expect Turner to get a lot of touches. If this is a standard league the I would go with McGahee over Sproles. I think McGahee will get more touches, but Sproles is all but a lock to catch 4+ passes.

I think both are solid starts this week, but I would go with Eli at home against the Skins. The Skins have been torched through the air lately and this could turn into a shoot out.
