Chris (Peoria, Arizona)
Should I start Pierre Garcon or Laurence Maroney in the flex?

The Jungle
Maroney's fantasy stock has risen in the past month due to New England's newfound commitment to the running game. He has had 20-plus carries in back-to-back games and ten or more carries in nine straight games. Look for that trend to continue at home against Jacksonville. He'll get touches where there isn't a guarantee Garcon will. Start Maroney.

Eric (Louisville, KY)
Whom should I start this week: Jerious Norwood vs Buffalo or Ahmad Bradshaw vs Carolina?

The Jungle
It comes down to whether or not Michael Turner plays for Atlanta. Right now, he's questionable, and if he doesn't play, Norwood is a great sleeper. Buffalo is last in rush defense and Atlanta will likely run the ball quite a bit with both Norwood and Jason Snelling. I'd start Bradshaw though, if Turner plays for the Falcons because Norwood takes a backseat in the Falcons' gameplan with Turner in the lineup.

Henry (Cincinnati, OH)
I'm in a custom league that gives points per five rushing attempts, but also gives bonus points for 40 and 50 yard touchdowns. I can play two out of the following three players: Marques Colston, Austin Miles, and Jonathan Stewart. Who should I start?

The Jungle
I think you have to give Stewart the go ahead for one of the spots. He'll likely receive a ton of carries with DeAngelo Williams injured and he proved last week that he's a viable threat when he gets the football.

The decision between which receiver should join Stewart is a tough one. Honestly, I like both, but Colston's matchup against Tampa Bay is great. Austin, actually struggled the first time around against Washington's 5th ranked pass defense and this time he's on the road. Start Colston with Stewart.

Adrian (Los Angeles, California)
Should I start Peyton Manning or Eli Manning?

The Jungle
The only way you consider benching Peyton is if he's slated to only play about a half or not at all. If he's good to go, and it sounds like he is, Peyton is one of the few must start options at any position in fantasy football. Keep him in your lineup.
