Fantasy Football Advice

So after a rough start I've climbed from last place to 6th with a big match up this weekend and I have a few choices to consider so I look forward to your feedback.

QB
RG3 @ Denver
or
Stafford vs Dallas

RB
Z. Stacy vs Seattle
or
R Mendenhall vs Atlanta

Stafford against the Cowboys is a no brainer.

Dallas d let denver roll points, and denver will prob have a heyday bounceback game at home vs the return of shanahan...stafford.

Seattle's D is much stiffer than atlanta's....thats how I'd go, but not sure.

Stafford and Mendenhall

Stafford and Stacy.. With Bradford out Stacy will be leaned on heavily/Plus it's Monday Night and Stacy is at Home.. Mendenhall to date has been a dud to start the year, I have him on my team.

I think I'd go RG3. Denver's pass D is average at best, and the Redskins will probably have to keep passing the entire game to keep up with Denver's offense.

Stacy will be going against an excellent defense that knows the Rams only (realistic) option is running the ball. Plus, the Rams are awful (and this is a Rams fan saying it).
Mendenhall may not be all that great, but he'll have an easier day going against the Atlanta D.

This is kind of the mentality I was thinking but Yahoo has Stafford and Stacy projected with more points which had me second guessing myself.

We know Denver will score against the Redskin D so that should make RG3 a decent fantasy play even if his touchdowns come late in the game after already been beat.

My fear with Stacy is that the Rams get down big early to Seattle and abandon the run game.

You'd probably do just fine starting Stafford. He's actually my QB so I hope he has a great day.
Look at the days that Romo and Luck had against Denver though. If you're willing to take a bit of a risk I think Griffin could have a excellent day.

The Rams really can't abandon the run game. Kellen Clemens is their QB now (top 5 pick here we come), and won't be effective enough to go to pass only. Stacy will get lots of touches, but will be running into a wall of Seahawks all game.

They can't abandon the run and will be a dump down back for QB.. Go with your gut, but I would lean with Stacy.. One thing I will add is Seattle is very, very good and crazy good AT HOME but not as good when on the road and especially in a dome.

Here is a tidbit for you. Seattle is 5-14 in domed stadiums since the start of the 2009 season. And the Seahawks are 1-6 in Arizona’s building since the stadium opened in 2006.
