So I need some help picking between two players for today. It's for my flex position, so it can be either a RB or a WR. Here's my choice:

Santana Moss (Was - WR)
Jamal Lewis (Cle - RB)

Washington is playing a struggling Giants secondary that has given up 80 points in their last two games. Cleveland is playing Oakland, who has defensive problems of their own.

Touchdowns are worth 6 points, *each* reception is worth a point, and both rushing and receiving get one point per 20 yards and a 3 point boost at 100.

Any advice?

All glory to the hypnotoad.

That's a tough one. But, I'd go with Jamal Lewis. Seeing how he is second in the league in Rushing and Oakland can't seem to stop the run, the combination seems to be the most profitable.

Yeah, but Moss against the Giants. Giants defense has not been doing so well lately. Lewis might very well be a good call against the Raiders, but if I had to bet on it (or put it in my fantasy leauge) I'd definetely go with Moss.

It's really a toss-up, I agree with what you're saying. I thought Moss injured his hamstring last week though, so I went the other direction.

Lewis is second in the league because of that fluke of a game last week where he had over 200 yards in a game that had almost 100 points scored. Not sure he'll perform like that again this year.

Right now Lewis is still in for me, but I may change that closer to 4:00.

It just says he's capable of big gains. I'm just sittin here watching the Pats under-achieve. I'm losing 4 games at the moment. Friggin Philly!

EDIT: OK, I take that back Randy Moss is fast Maroney is slick. Now, they're hittin on all cylinders!

Actually I decided to play them both. I kept Lewis in the flex position and put Javon Walker on the bench. Moss's matchup is just a whole lot more favorable.

Yeah so neither worked out at all. I had a horrible week this week. Steve Smith freaking killed me.
