  Looks like rain, thunderstorms, and gusty winds all over on Sunday. I'm thinking of benching some guys I had picked up. Heavy thunderstroms and wind for the CHI game. I think I'm gonna bench McCown for Palmer, Glennon, or Tannehill. Heavy winds in the CLE CIN game may have me benching Josh Gordon. Lastly, heavy winds and rain may force me to bench Folk and look for another kicker. Am I over-reacting?

  Last time I benched Gordon(not for weather but for facing KC, he went nuts). Don't bench him.

  Good topic. Smart thinking if weather holds. Sometimes the sun jumps out right at kickoff, though. It's something to factor in for sure. And, some guys slip and someone goes 99 yards.

  and you probably didn't record it because it was raining , right?

  My league is a non PPR 12 person league having a roster of 19 players each. Active roster includes 1Qb 2Rb's 3Wr's 1Te 1K 1Def. Two weeks before draft we cut the roster down to 9 keepers. My team as of now:
  QB Russell Wilson, EJ Manuel, Jason Campbell
  RB Lamar Miller, Shane Vereen, Zac Stacy, Knowshon Moreno
  WR AJ Green, Julio Jones, Josh Gordon, Rueben Randle, Robert Woods, Kenny Stills
  TE J Reed, M. Bennett
  DEF Kansas City
  K Adam Vinatieri
