NFL Week 1 Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em Advice

Each week, we’ll put together a Fantasy start ’em or sit ’em. Also remember, if you didn’t check out my NFL Week 1 Predictions and Picks Against the Spread, check those out.

2.) Thomas Jones — With Brett Favre making his regular season debut with the Jets, I expect him to rely on the running game to get him comfortable and the running game should do wonders against the team that was dead last against the run last season (Miami).

3.) Laurence Maroney — With Brady on a bum foot and Moss seeing constant double teams, it makes sense for the Pats to run the ball a lot with Maroney against a team that was 28th against the run. The Pats should see the endzone often and hopefully, that means lots of goal line carries for Maroney.

4.) Marion Barber — Dallas should be able to score in bunches against the Browns. Barber should be good for at least 100 yards and 1 TD.
