do you think Austin will get shut down? or will austin gain alot of points on fantasy? im deciding whether or not to put him in my starting line up. For WRs I have Roddy White and Dwayne Bowe, Crabtree is on my bench. Im wondering if crabtree will have a better sunday than austin

I'd start Austin over Crabtree. They don't even seem sure how much he'll be able to give them as he's still recovering from that broken foot.

I'll play Austin for sure. Austin is one of the top WRs when Romo is healthy - and the way he has dominated good CBs in the past (Nnamdi and others) - I'll keep him in the starting line-up.

yeah it's not Austin vs Revis I'm concerned about, it's Romo vs Revis that worries me. I'd start Crabtree in this case

Yeup. My friend asked me if he should bench Ray Rice against the Steelers D. Today, I got a text from him thanking me.

Also, Jets had revealed couple days before the game that Revis will mostly defend Dez and they will double Austin.
