OK, I'm in my championship game this weekend with Hurts as my QB, so that sucks.

If he can't go should I go with Gardner Minshew @Dallas or Derek Carr @Pittsburgh?

Super flex league

Start Zach Wilson at QB Thursday and then Flex Lamar Jackson or Minshew/Heinicke/Jeff Wilson as a fallback.

-or-

Play the best two of Lamar Jackson/Minshew/Heinike/Jeff Wilson this weekend.

Tough decision, because I could end up with a bad Heinicke matchup and Wilson as a flex if Minshew and Lamar don't go.

Lamar didn't practice yesterday...let's see if he practices today.

I would probably start Zach Wilson tomorrow. He will be erratic, but the matchup is decent

2 leagues - Start New England and KC or pick up Cleveland in both?

Have PHI in both but not confident in that matchup

Yikes. Is there nobody else on waivers? I don't like either of your choices. Gun to my head? I'd say Carr and hope he has a good game lol but you're basically rolling the dice between a pedestrian performance or sharting himself

No, we have deep benches so nobody else worth of note out there on waivers.

Such is my luck in fantasy football, this was going to be the first year that I didn't have a major QB injury in over 10 years lol

I have Hurts in both my leagues. In my deep bench league I was surprised I was able to snag Brady from among him, Lawrence, Rodgers, Carr, Purdy and Minshew.

In my small bench league my top choices are Minshew, Zac Wilson, Pickett and Purdy....

Well could I get your opinion on my kicker? Koo against Baltimore or Elliott against Dallas?

Play Goedert this week. I took him off IR and will be activating him. Perfect timing.

Need a QB:
Dak - Philly has a good D and it's going to be bad weather
D. Jones @ Min. Indoors, should be high scoring
D. Watson vs NO. Decent matchup and he's been getting better each week.

I would probably lean towards Dak, followed by Jones, then Watson. DAL vs PHI is in Dallas, so no weather issues.

PPR

Trying to figure out a WR and two flex positions

I can start 3 of the following:

Kirk v NYJ (bad weather game)
Slayton at Min
Fournette at Ari
Cooper v NO (bad weather game)
Goodwin at KC (bad weather game)

Leaning Kirk, Fournette, Slayton
Cooper would normally be a start...but worried about the weather for Cooper


D/ST: Balt (v Atl) or Ten (v Hou)

Also, any concerns about A. Brown sitting vs Dallas. Heard some rumors they may rest some players....

Need to fill RB2 and Flex spot in my 12-man for playoffs round 2. RB1 is Kamara, WR1 and WR2 are Jefferson and Lamb.

Choosing from Brian Robinson, JK Dobbins, AJ Dillon, Zay Jones, Christian Watson.

Half PPR.

Cowboys at home with a 50-point O/U

That's a tough one too, I've got Koo, but it's going to be damn cold in Baltimore this weekend and who know what the wind is going to be like, so I'm trying to grab Greg Joseph off of waivers. Between the two I would probably lean towards Elliott, since he will be in a nice climate controlled stadium.

I would play it safe and choose among the 3 RB's

Dobbins and Dillon

bad matchup for Wash this week at SF

Ravens and Titans are both great plays. I would lean toward the Ravens vs. Ridder.

I've been trying to find another WR, so I could bench Kirk vs. the Jets tomorrow night; but he's still my best option. Hopefully Sauce covers Zay Jones and not Kirk.

Goodwin is a tempting start because it only takes one big play with his speed....and Seattle should be playing from behind.

Fournette is a safe start

it's that magical time of year when you're starting some team's third-down back, a player you never heard of before mid-October, and you're locked in on a game like jaguars at jets like a degenerate gambler.

Tua or Daniel Jones at QB this week? Thinking Jones may be in a shootout with Minnesota, and my opponent has Cousins.
I'm But Tua is projected more and has some great WRs.
Easy come, easy go

I don't have a strong lean either way, but I'd make your decision regardless of who your opponent is starting.

Hell yeah… had Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray in my super flex to get to the playoffs now I am rooting on Zach Wilson and Gardner Minshew in the semi finals… last week it was Heineke and Huntley.

Semi final in 8 team league: PPR flex:

Ken Walker @KC
JK Dobbins v ATL
Zay Jones @ NYJ (Thursday)


Consolation match in other league: RB2 and flex:

Najee Harris v LV
JK Dobbins v ATL
Rachaad White @ AZ
Latavius Murray @ LAR
Olave @ CLE (questionable)

Need a flex in half PPR.

Aiyuk vs Was
Jamal Williams vs Car
Deon Jackson vs LAC
AJ Dillon vs Miami
Mostert vs GB
Jeff Wilson Jr vs GB

I'm thinking if Aaron Jones is out with his knee (unlikely) it's gotta be Dillon, if Wilson is out with his hip and Aaron Jones plays it's gotta be Mostert. If both Jones and Wilson play it's gonna be Jamaal Williams. Thoughts?

Olave officially out for the Saints.

didn't realize the O/U for Saints-Browns is just 32 1/2 points.

really expecting the weather to dominate

Dillon or Mostert

kind of like Dillon even if A. Jones plays --- he's been great the last 3 weeks

I would run with Mostert. Dillon has the lower ceiling. Mostert and McDaniel is a nightmare formula for Packers fans (like me). Mostert ran for 220 yds and 4 TD's against the Packers in the 2019 NFC Championship game. The run game coordinator for the 49er's was McDaniel. Just my two cents

Zach Wilson tonight in rain and wind or Huntley in a dome this weekend?
