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

thx!!

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).

lol ya it's bad and I'm starting to trend out of playoff contention.

thank u david johnson, chase emonds, and mark walton.

[Jayarbie]

It's the weekly question here. Jameis (@Atl) or Allen (vs Den)? The CBS projections say play Jameis by a mile, but they may be slow to react to the sudden resurgence of the Falcons D in the last 2 weeks. Denver has been pretty tough vs QBs, but they're fading fast. The weather in Buffalo is 30's and rain/snow, but Allen is less affected as a running QB. Jameis is in a dome in Atlanta.

[dhawkeye1980]

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

Prob have to pick one more if deebo sits. Im thinking cobb? With NE trying to shut down cooper and elliot gallup and cobb could feast

[JPG13]

Do I start the NE Defense?

Their upcoming schedule scares me

Cooper only played 55% of snaps last week and had 3 catches. People say he's been hurt for the last 2 years, but this was a season low for him which means this injury is more extensive than in the past. I'd watch his health. If he's playing limited snaps and not his normal self, I think the Patriots defense will be able to defend Gallup and Cobb better. If Cooper is 100% then I think Dallas has to get Zeke and Gallup or Cobb involved to have a chance to win.

I have them in one league and am still treating them as match up proof. Do you have a better option that you could start instead of them? Or just asking in general?

Just in general. Weeks 12-14 seem scary from a scheduling stand point. I could pick up a streamer like Oakland or someone and play russian roulette. But at that point, I'd rather just roll with NE

With playoffs coming up, Im benching them and streaming. They have a couple nice match ups playoff time if memory serves right.

Jameis. O/U is 51.5

O/U for BUF/DEN is 37.5 which is probably the lowest of the week

It's hard to sit them given their production so far this year. They have been scoring upwards of 20+ points weekly, granted against extremely weak teams, but even if they give you 1/2 of that it's a solid fantasy performance.

This week at Dallas will be a real test of how good they are. Dak has been playing at an MVP level and the Cowboys offense is ranked near top of the NFL. If they clamp them down, I'd say you can confidently start them ROS.

I’m starting Brissett and Ebron on the road tonight because of byes

Would you guys rather have any of these in place of them. Standard scoring

J. Driskel @Wash

V. McDonald @ Cincy
D. Fells vs Ind

I wouldn't say he is a clear cut better option than Ebron, but I'd probably start McDonald. With all the injuries on the Steeler's and them playing Cincy I'd assume he gets targets and a chance to get some yards and/or a TD.

[SDOptimist]

BIG next few weeks. Started 1-5. I am not 6-5. If I win the next 3, I am in. If I go 2-1, I have a slight chance. But, due to my ****ty start, I won't win any of the tie breakers since my total points are low.

Driskel is intriguing. He's not incompetent and he gets rushing points, so he should have a decent floor regardless of matchup, and the trash tier teams in the NFL this year (i.e. Mia, NYJ, Was, Cin, etc.) are truly chit tier worse than I can remember in other years, so the matchup is great. He's currently projected 2 points higher than Brissett in the CBS projections for my money league.

[BIgOrange865]

Didn’t start John Brown last week and went with Singletary instead. Lost by 3 points.

Full PPR who to start this week?
Brown
Singletary
Carlos Hyde

Full PPR it's Brown. He's been a PPR stud this year.

Thanks for confirming my beliefs. I was a little worried about bad weather in buffalo

[dhawkeye1980]

Hyde not doin chit

[Jayarbie]

He's going to see a lot of Chris Harris, too. It's a risk, although I don't know that Singletary is any better in PPR.

[Jayarbie]

Myles Smollett should be banned permanently for race baiting.

[sfgiants13]

Hyde not doin chit

Helped me greatly last night. Hoping I can put up a win this week and I'll be in contention for the final week at a playoff spot.

[JUGGERNAUT1333]

Flex this week :

Kareem at MIA
Crowder at Oak

Next:

Flex as well

Ballage at CLE
R. Anderson at OAK

Josh Gordon @ PHI
Robert Woods vs BAL

is Woods even playing?

[Humungus]

Yeah, but you'd want nothing to do with him against Ravens improved secondary and with Goff's passing looking like ass.

[BIgOrange865]

Chatty weather, most likely playing from behind means Brown should at least see plenty of targets. Also Allen poaching most of the goal line carries.

Leaning Brown ATM.

Thanks for the insight on spread

Chris Harris is a slot corner, right? John Brown has only played 14% of his snaps in the slot. So unless Harris said he was shadowing Brown, Brown shouldn't see too much of Harris.

At this point, Brown's 13th in WR targets and Allen's favorite target. He's a solid WR2 option and one I wouldn't bench due to a match up.

Harris has been a shadow corner under Fangio this year. I wouldn't necessarily bench him, either, just saying.
