I need the win more than you, and just realized it is only a little over 18 points I need out of Keenan, time to make up for his terrible performances of late.

my tom brady aaron rodgers QB combo this year has not been working out this season, they both suck this year at fantasy (srs)

but, john brown / michael thomas / mccaffrey / marlon mack saved me this week.

Sounds like they need to just shut him down this year

Probably. Jones is back from bye next week but I still don't really have a good option for my 2nd RB. I traded away Michel for Keenan Allen and declined my 5th round for next year for Henry which kind of sucks now. My options are Guice and R Freeman. My 2 flex are solid options at WR but not sure they can make up for my garbage at RB. Unless Guice starts to eat into APs carries in which case I'll be fine. I need 6 from Keenan and Watkins this week so I should be good and next week I play the guy who's already traded away his entire team for picks next year (of course I'm his only win on the season when his team went off). I think I'll still need that last week win to knock him out of the playoffs and put me in.

**Murph0408** · 11-18-2019, 05:45 PM

One more catch for 6 yards on that last drive is all I needed from Allen, God Damn It! I put up the 2nd most points in the league this week and you beat me by 1!

Brady to the Chargers next year? Seems a little far fetched, but who knows, he is from CA.

No.

Ended up winning one of my leagues with Williams 50 yard catch at the end of the game. Went 3-0 in all my leagues. Feels good man.

I don't get all this chatter about Brady leaving. Why would he leave the Patriots and end his career on likely a losing note for some other team?

It's all stupid BS for clicks and attention. People love to think Brady isn't happy in New England and New England will move on from him next season.

**Jayarbie** · 11-19-2019, 09:23 AM

Marc Walton arrested for repeatedly punching his pregnant girlfriend in the head. He was also released by the Dolphins, but that seems like the least of his problems right now.

**dupaloop3611** · 11-19-2019, 10:33 AM

we going all in on BO?

Bo Scarborough? I'm not, but I'm in PPR leagues, and his value is very much muted by his lack of pass game targeting. He's an OK add for non-PPR leagues if you're hurting at RB.

**JUGGERNAUT1333** · 11-19-2019, 11:10 AM

This has been a year of massive first round disappointment. CMC and Chubb really the only one who lived up to expectations (consensus 1st rounders, I know 9-12 vary a lot)

Barkley
Kamara
Elliot
DJ
Adams
Hopkins
Conner

All had very weak seasons or injury. Zeke's fantasy value was saved by getting TDs, but real life football he's been very average.

**dhawkeye1980** · 11-19-2019, 06:04 PM

Cobb @ NE
Slayton @chi
Hyde v ind

This really is turning out to be the year of the mid-round backs. Other than CMC (1st) and Cook (2nd), the high round backs have been disappointments, but the mid round guys like Jones, Carson, Ingram, Ekeler, etc have carried teams.

Hyde. He's definitely getting the volume and has a good chance at a TD.

Agreed on this.

Hyde definitely has the highest floor and is the safest play. I think Slayton probably has the higher ceiling if you think you need a big splash instead of safe points, but his floor is clearly zero as well, so he's a much bigger risk.

As for Cobb, I'd barely be willing to start Cooper or Gallup in New England. Cobb is a hard No this week.

PPR - pick 1

jonathan williams vs hou
jay ajayi vs sea
bo scar vs wsh

If Wilkins doesn't play Thursday, I'd go Williams. If Wilkins plays I think Bo is the best play.

Those are your choices? Oof. Two guys not guaranteed any real role and a guy not involved at all in the pass game in a PPR league? I guess I'd say Scarborough and pray he scores? At least Wash is a plus matchup. Williams in a Thurs road game is a bad play and Wilkins will at least split early downs if he's active. I think the Eagles will bounce back, but I doubt Ajayi will be involved much (it's even possible Howard could play, in which case Ajayi would likely be a scratch).

**Jayarbie** · 11-20-2019, 09:58 AM

James Washington is a sneaky PPR play this week (and Jaylen Samuels is a must-start). The Steelers have a mega-plus matchup vs the Bengals, but it's looking like Conner, Juju, and Dionte are all out (and Snell is questionable at best). Samuels will be a 25 touch workhorse, and Washington the top target in the pass game against a putrid defense for a tanking team. McDonald might even get 65 catches to make d-hawks prediction come true.

With how awful the Pittsburgh offense is even in a "mega-plus" match up I'm not getting excited about anyone on their team.

Last week was the Thurs road trap, but in the 3 games before that, their offense was decent enough against some pretty good teams (except Miami of course). They torched the Bengals in the first game, too. In a matchup as good as this, I'd consider the right guys (def not Rudolph, though, there are plenty of better QBs). Against teams that aren't in the NFL trash tier this year, I'd stay away for sure.
