It's time to drop the 2014 thread and move forward into the new season! Let's help each other crush our leagues!

Bump for the start of the season tonight!

I am starting Edelman so hopefully that pays off for me tonight.

I've got a choice between Eli Manning (vs Dallas) and Carson Palmer (vs NO).

Both games should be shoot outs, both olines have issues, both running games will probably do more with short passes than carries.

Trying to decide on who to start at my RB2 spot while LeVeon Bell is suspended:

Isiah Crowell @NYJ
Duke Johnson @NYJ
Darren McFadden vs. NYG
Joique Bell @SD

I think I might lean towards Palmer. I believe statistically speaking, QBs facing non-division opponents score around 5 more points per game than they do when facing division opponents. Might come down to whether or not Michael Floyd is playing (which I believe the signs are pointing towards a yes).

Joique, no doubt in my mind.

A. He is criminally underrated.
B. Dallas backfield is a mess
C. Browns backfield isn't much better
D. Jets D

Amari Cooper, Davonte adams or Andre Ellington at Flex?

EDIT: PPR

Very good points for my situation. The NYG/DAL game is Sunday night so I can wait to see if Floyd is suiting up too.

As for yours, I agree with it being Bell here... I wish we had a better idea of how healthy he is but I think you have to go with him. You could roll the dice with McFadden in a decent match up but either way, I wouldn't touch a CLE RB this week.

Ellington because:

1. RB over relatively equal WR
2. Great match up when he and Palmer are both healthy
3. Chance to let Adams and Cooper prove their worth... neither have yet in the regular season
