I can't believe we don't have one of these yet. Where you at, Zachary?!?

When Zeke was injured and dropped, I thought I was doing great picking him up, but all I did was create a weekly struggle on whether to start him or not.

This week, I need to pick 1 WR and 1 FLEX from the following in a 1 PPR league. My WR1 is AJ Brown, RB1 is Ekeler, RB2 is Stevenson.

T. Lockett vs Car
G. Wilson @ Buf
D. Swift vs Min
E. Elliott vs Hou

Right now I'm leaning Lockett and Wilson, but Swift seems to be getting more work lately and Dallas should run all over Houston this week. Thoughts?

in one of my leagues...I'm starting both Zeke and Pollard this week.

I would probably go Lockett (highest ceiling) and Zeke (highest floor)

all 4 of those guys are good plays. Vikings-Lions should be high-scoring

anyone trotting out Cam Akers tonight?

(due to byes and injuries)

not a bad matchup vs. the Raiders defense

I think we all agree on Lockett. But it would be very tough for me to sit G. Wilson. Mike White targeted him 15 times last week. He was a couple of inches away from going 250+ with 2 TDs.

Josh Jacobs off to a good start

20 yards & TD on the Raiders' opening drive

50-yarder for Carlson -- those are always welcome

Yeah, my real conundrum comes down to Wilson or Elliott. And really I think it's a coin flip.

I'm approaching finals week so I've been off my fantasy game! Thanks for starting a thread.

I'm in a bind because of byes. R White or J Cook? White seems the obvious one, but hate the match up.

well, after an encouraging start...this game has settled into the typical Thursday night clunker.

the Raiders scored a TD on the 1st drive of the game, but zero TD's for either team since then.

O/U was 42 points -- not even halfway there entering the 4th quarter.

good night for Carlson owners -- he has 3 field goals

Damn right he does

late TD run for Akers to salvage his fantasy line

Baker!!!!

Love that for him. What a game!

What a pathetic 2nd half for the Raiders.

Threw Mack Hollins in my flex at the last minute (due to byes my only other option was Jakobi Meyers who still hasn't cleared concussion protocol). Had a decent first half. Then I don't think Carr completed a pass to ANY WR in the 2nd half.

what a finish...and what a collapse by the Raiders

two of these four RBs for RB2 and ppr FLEX:

Jamaal Williams v MIN (Swift appears to be retaking back over at DET)
Najee Harris v BAL (tough matchup for rb in a bad offense)
Rachaad White @SF (tough matchup and Fournette is back)
Latavius Murray v KC (good matchup; but offense in DEN remains horrible)

due to byes and injuries, I have no WRs i can start at flex, unless Jakobi Meyers comes out of concussion protocol, but he's fallen off the face of the earth lately anyway so one of the RBs above is probably still the flex choice. Free agents I see available: Travis Homer (if Ken Walker and DeeJay Dallas are both indeed inactive), Pickens, Burks (also in concussion protocol).

Looks like walker III is out in SEA

If Saquon can't go (game time decision), do I go Dameon PIerce @DAL or JWJ @LAC?

Am I insane to start Tua this week ahead of Josh Allen?

Or do you just play Allen no matter what?

Late season byes and very deep league have me in a situation. Where I'm picking between Gus Edwards and Dobbins. Any thoughts? Half PPR although neither will catch the ball much.

I would go with Pierce, because the Texans are going to treat this like the worst team in a high school district playing the best team - you know every time you try to pass, you're turnover/sack/fumble potential is really high, so you run the ball 50 times and drain the clock out so you lose 35-7 instead of 68-10. You gotta figure Dallas will be up 25+ going to the fourth quarter and pull its starters to rest, after Jacksonville next week they've got Philly, Tennessee, and Washington.

Fighting for my playoff life in a must-win game:

Options for WR3 (1 PPR)

Marquise Brown
Mike Williams
DJ Moore
Diontae Johnson

WWYD?

Flip a coin. I'd go to Gus myself.

Brown or Moore. I'd probably go Moore.

Need a RB2 and a flex in a .5 PPR league.

Mostert
McKinnon
Dobbins
Slayton
Fournette

Fournette McKinnon

Have a feeling my opponent is going to score 200 today. I've gotten to the degenerate stage of hoping for a snowstorm for the Eagles/Giants game and that Saquon sits out, because otherwise I'm facing:

Hurts & Brown vs. Giants
Saquon vs. Eagles
Pollard vs. Texans
Jefferson vs. Detroit
Tyreek vs. Chargers

Desperate for a RB this week.
With Mixon back, I'm dropping Perine.
Should I drop Perine for Cook, McKinnon, or Jones, Jr?

am I still starting Jamaal and Najee?

Najee should get a lot of opportunities since Baltimore is without Lamar. Plus Pickens is in the doghouse for throwing a temper tantrum on the sideline last week, so they might run more than throw. Feels like a 13-10 game, but Najee could see a lot of carries.

I'm in the same bind with Williams and Swift. I'm starting Swift today, so I'm sure Williams will have two 1-yard touchdown runs in the first quarter.

Need a flex in half PPR

Mostert, Jeff Wilson, Jamaal Williams, Brandon Aiyuk, James Cook

Mike Williams finally healthy. I have him as a PPR flex option. Anyone else starting him v MIA?

I also have Latavius Murray going against KC's weaker run D.

Which one?
