How’s everyone doing ¼ through the season? My 3 Yahoo teams are each 2-2. My 2 ESPN teams are 3-1 and 2-2, and my Cellar dwelling CBS team is 0-4. My cellar dwellers have lost by 4,2,18, and 6. Maybe this will be the week to start a streak!
I'm 3-1 in my ESPN league, thanks to the Cowgirls giving Barber the ball 8 freaken times. I lost by 4 points this week.

I don't know about you guys but I have been very disappointed with Santonio Holmes sofar this year. He really hasn't done much, I'm thinking about trading him. My other receiver, Santana Moss has done great sofar.
Man, I am on a 3 game losing streak! and there is big money on the line! luckily, i still have a lot of points so i'm still in good standing in that respect with most of the season still to go. My problem? I had drafted Matt Hasselbeck before Nate Burleson, Bobby Engram, and Deion Branch were all lost to injury! I had Trent Edwards last week because it was a superb matchup for him, but he got knocked out of the game during the 1st offensive series! I lost by 4 points! Surely, I would have won if Trent at least made it to halftime.
My pick to click/sleeper at the QB position this week:

okay lil update i'm 6-4, won three out of the last 4, and i'm in the last playoff spot currently.
I have a real toughie this week and have a hard QB decision; Philip Rivers (facing PIT uggh!) or Eli Manning (vs Baltimore). I could also pick up Tyler Thigpen in FA. what would you do?
Did I mention I think Thursday night football sux from a fantasy perspective!

[Read More] There are worse "hail mary" choices than Thigpen for this week; the Saints rank 27th against the pass and made rookie Matt Ryan look like an All-Pro in Week 10. By the way, Thigpen's past three weeks: 710 passing yards, six touchdowns, 66 fantasy points. Even with Larry Johnson back, Thigpen will continue to throw it 35 times a game, for better or worse.
Thigpen hasn’t played New Orleans before.
Eli Manning vs Baltimore Projected 11 points Eli is Eli. He doesn't get more than 200 yards passing, and he uses the threat of the run and his standout offensive line to keep the pressure off him. As long as he avoids the big turnover, he puts up his 11 or 12 fantasy points and goes home with the victory. The Ravens might be able to get to him more than most defenses, but he should still end up with another Eli-type performance.
It looks like Eli has played Baltimore once with some pretty dismal numbers. 22.2% 0 TD’s 2 INT
Philip Rivers @ Pittsburgh Projected 14 points . The Steelers might boast the game's top-ranked pass defense, and they put more pressure on an opposing quarterback than anyone, with a league-best 34 sacks. Still, it's hard to imagine them fully containing Rivers and his arsenal. Rivers has three 300-yard efforts in his past four games, and four straight multi-touchdown performances. The matchup says to lower your expectations, but not to the point where he's a must-sit.
Rivers has faced Pitt once with a 64.9 passing % 2 TD’s 1 INT.
Weather outlook for Pittsburgh 40% chance of snow.
Based on all of the above I would go with Rivers
