A pretty legitimate strategy this year could have been “start anybody that’s playing against the Seattle Seahawks.” It’s no surprise that several players that faced the Seahawks this week made our list of Sunday Studs. What is a surprise, though, is that Seattle still has a good chance of making the playoffs.
In my league championship game, I had Josh Freeman, Mike Williams (TB) and Kellen Winslow all locked into my starting lineup…until I decided a minute before kickoff that having three Bucs was a bad idea. So now Jimmy Graham has to match Winslow’s 2 TDs or else I’ll need therapy sessions during the offseason. Let’s hope you started these Sunday Studs (or faced an owner that benched them).
