    Thought about it, but I’m down 20 points going into the second week of playoffs so I don’t want to try and get too cute either, I will still probably pick him up though.

    Bears, Steelers or Washington D?

    I can only roster 2 at a time. Bears and Steelers don't have great matchups this week but do next week. Washington would be a one week streamer only.

    CHI: @DET, vs CLE
    PIT: vs NE, @HOU
    WAS: vs ARI and whatever is left of their OL
     
  3. Should I roll the dice with the Chargers D ? I feel they may come up huge at KC.

    Rodgers officially back. I’m gonna roll with him. I feel more comfortable starting him than I do Cousins and Winston.

    I think I've definitely made the decision to go Brady over Rodgers and Freeman, Burkhead and Williams as my RB1, 2 and Flex.

    With Rodgers back, I'm thinking of going Jordy WR2 with Allen as my WR1. But I was able to pick up Robert Woods off the wire (who had like 3 monster games before getting injured) and my opponent has Goff at QB. I kind of like the idea of starting Woods so that anytime Goff is scoring points, I'm potentially scoring points right there with him (so long as Woods is getting targets).

    Or am I thinking too much and just go with Jordy?

    I’ve always like starting WRs that my opposing QB throws to as well. Though Woods/Nelson is a toss up I think. Tough call.

    Both are extremely risky (I normally start Diggs, but he's so inconsistent) and Nelson has been unplayable without Rodgers. I'm not so sure those two will immediately hit it off ASAP with Rodgers coming back this week. Maybe they will. And with Woods, he's been out 3 or so weeks, so it may take some time for him to get back in a groove as well. I'm sure which ever one I sit will go off.
     
  8. Stafford or Keenum this week ? What would you guys do ?

    Streaming TE's this year has been an absolute dumpster fire. With that said, I think I'm going to roll with O.J. Howard this week. It was between O.J. Howard, Eric Ebron, Jesse James, and Benjamin Watson. I still may pick up Watson because of the matchup, but I just think that with the position the Bucs are in (out of the playoff hunt) they are going to see what they have in O.J. Howard. If you look at his snap counts compared to Brate he is starting to see a lot more playing time and he is just a talented guy.

    Sorry everyone, just typing that up for myself so I can feel a little better about my decision.

    dug myself a bigger hole last week by starting Vikings D instead of Broncos. Stuck with the same question

    Denver D @ Indianapolis (on a Thursday??)
    Or
    Vikings D vs Bengals.

    I think Denver has the better matchup, since Dalton has been serviceable as of late. But the Thursday part sort of scares me.

    Nope. Supporter

    This is tough, I think Denver was a fluke last week and will not have the same results, i'd go Minn

    Eagles DST @ Giants
    Or
    Saints DST vs Jets

    I think the Saints is the best D/ST play this week. I'm rolling with them over Ravens @ CLE.

    Bryce Petty in the Superdome. Could get ugly.

    So... I’m definitely leaning garoppolo over Goff this week.

    But how was he on waivers

    I'm doing the same thing. The league I'm in the playoffs in has the D/ST really set up to score points each week so you really have to have a good defense. If McCown was playing I would definitely play the Ravens this week, but it's just too hard not to play the Saints the week with who they are going up against.

    On the flip side I do have Robby Anderson and he is one of my only good receivers so I'm just hoping he gets everything thrown his way this week.

    Are you actually starting Anderson? You don’t have anyone else? Who is on the waivers? Is DeDe Westbrook available?

    I somehow got JuJu on waivers this week lol

    Yeah, I started off super thin this year at WR and have had to work hard just to get the ones I have now. Jamison Crowder and Kelvin Benjamin have been complete letdowns, but of course as soon as I drop Crowder a couple of weeks back is when he decides to blow up. Right now my WR are Doug Baldwin, Robby Anderson, Devin Funchess, and Kelvin Benjamin.

    The only reason I feel good about Robby Anderson is because he started to blow up a little last year when Bryce Petty was the QB so I think they would have somewhat of a rapport with that in mind and the fact that they will get a full week of practice in.

    we've seen the shadow of the axe before Supporter

    I’m starting him this week with confidence. In fact, I think it’s going to be JuJu with the big game and not AB. I’m thinking it’s going to be similar to that game where JuJu went off for almost 200 yards and a TD. I just have a feeling in my gut. And when you consider Martavis only had like 30 yards on 6 receptions last week, and what Landry did to Pats on Monday out of the slot - I’m rolling with JuJu.

    #HEEL

    .5 PPR, need to start 2:

    • D. Murray @ SF

    • A. Morris @ OAK

    • N. Agholor @ NYG

    • Duke Johnson v BAL

    • J. Williams @ CAR

    • C. Coleman v BAL

    • T. Riddick v CHI

    Williams/Morris will have the most volume for sure but Williams' matchup kinda stinks and Murray's is so good. I'm torn.

    I go Morris and Williams. Quite easily IMO.
