You've seen what 49er Harbaugh is like for being pumped, so the chance to stick one over his brother and say he had a tougher D than the Ravens, I can see those guys getting fired up for sure Lewis is the game changer for me though, if he plays I say Ravens have a better shot but I can see it being a Flacco vs 49ers secondary all day long. The 49ers have the #1 rushing defence in the NFL (linky http://espn.go.com/nfl/statistics/team/_/stat/rushing/position/defense), so I cant see the Ravens getting much change from there. And if you cant run the ball, then you know whats going to happen!

You seriously have to ask if you should start Rodgers? Really? Really?

If your playing me I'd go with Newton

Just think what Newton will do to our D though!

Bet he throws for 300 yards and rushes for another 150!

Not bad to be honest. Considering it's a 16 team league. Record been helpful though, losing Charles absolutely killed me.

I'm 14-2 in fantasy this season (we have some double header weeks as it's a 16 team league).

Without Rodgers and Gronkowski that would probably be the other way around.

Loughborough away on Sunday. We're very much the underdogs, but they're not as good as everyone thinks, a lot of it is intimidation.

And I refuse to accept Triple Option as an offence either.
