Tony’s predicament is the reason why I have not jumped into the Fantasy Football world. I almost did this year because I keep track of all theplayers anyway BUT when it comes to the Steelers it is NOT JUST A GAME!I would have to sit the players opposing the Steelers and in no way could I root for any single player, team defense or team against the Steelers. But having AP on your team makes it tough. Guess I’ll leave that to Tony and focus on rooting for a big Steeler win on Sunday!

thus you see my conflict. Hard to want to see peterson romp. I guess i just need to hope peterson gets the viking’s TDs and not Favre. And I’ll take about 80 yds from him i guess.

I have no conflict because I’m sitting Peterson. I want no reason to not feel angered if the Steelers fail to contain Peterson.

Go Steelers!

And the Warlock Jamie Dukes spoke with fear for the Knights of the Hypocycloid as he gushed with the deeds of the invaders from the frigid wild North. The brave warriors of the Celtic King Rooney ready their armamenets for the siege of the Confluence, for they fear not the evil realm of the wry wizard Franken. The wondrous warrior with the black mane, Sir Troy of the Land of Polamalu and he of the mighty right sword arm,the stalwart knight Ben the Magnate of Roethlisberg are determined to rise to the challenge of the cagey Farve and the dasher of doom known as Sir Adrian. For as the Knights of the Confluence they are bound by their honor and duty to one another to continue the halcyon days of the Empire of the Burgh in pursuit of the silver Grail of Lombardi. The word of the Oracle.

Tony,
I don’t see your conflict. You have both Rashard Mendenhall and Adrian Peterson on your fantasy team. They may both have good games this week. That will be good for your fantasy team. However, obviously you will REALLY be hoping that Peterson has a TERRIBLE game. After all, reality trumps fantasy.

Go Steelers!!! (Boo Vikings!)

Claudine,

Peterson will be fine. He had the same injury last week while romping all over the ravens. He is a 100% starter this week, sorry. I follow him very closely because he is on my fantasy team.

Donald,

I tried my best to find a flaw in this article! But I couldn’t

However, I’m not so quick to predict a win for us. Our pass D is pretty weak itself ya know. Only giving up about 30yds less each game than the Vikings do. And let’s not forget who we have played. Dereck Anderson helped those stats last week.

I have a real big problem this week! I have Peterson and Mendenhall starting on my fantasy team! I’m so conflicted. I have taken them both out of my lineup about 10 times each already and put them back in.

Any advice? I have M. Lynch on bench. By the way my team (“I AM STEEL”) is in first place in my league of 10. I’m 5-1 with a whomping 750pts in 6 weeks.

I’m predicting a Steelers win, too. Adrian Peterson is suffering from a sore ankle and was limited in practice but is “likely” to play Sunday. Antoine Winfield is unlikely to play due to a foot injury. In addition to the healthy talent on the Steelers, they will have home field advantage.

I agree with the scoring and that the Steelers will end the Vikings winning streak. I have one question aboout Adrian Peterson. Will he be playng this week or was his injury a threat to the season for the Vikings? If so, that would be a help to the Steelers, not that I want him to suffer like that, I don’t!!!!!!
