I was so pissed last week. In one of my 2 leagues, Keenan Allen + Aaron Jones got injured leaving my team with 0 points each. Ended up still losing by only 7, would easily have won if that didn't happen. Chit happens at the worst times in FF lmao

Allen

I'm going to go against the grain here for anyone taking Allen over Mayfield this week. Allen on the road against a Pats team that has lost 2 straight just seems like a bad idea to me. I'm taking Baker all day against a Cinci defense he has at home and he shredded on the road 4 weeks ago for 4 TDs. Allen has the rushing upside, but I think that gets taken away this week and he is a terrible passer.

I agree. Mayfield is a better play. The Bengals and Browns are two teams going in opposite directions. The Browns are trying to build for the future in a season where the already have 6x the total wins in the last two years combined while the Bengals are playing out the string with their franchise QB on IR waiting for their coach to be fired. I expect this game to be a Browns rout and Mayfield to put up big numbers.

Allen has a decent floor because of his rushing numbers, but a limited upside because I agree that the Pats will be taking no prisoners this week.

Pats defense has been nothing to be afraid of. They will prob score about the same TBH

[MuscleSouth]

Need some advice boys,

QB

Goff
Rivers
Rodgers

Flex

Schuster
David Johnson
Keenan Allen

?

[MuscleSouth]

Obviously injuries are a huge concern.

uhh probably rodgers and juju (if he is still playing)

edit: Why didn't you trade away one of the QBs and a flex earlier this year? If you are having to flex one of those three guys I can't imagine what your starters are.

edit2: just saw pic above, you in a 4 man league?

10 man league, I made some savvy trades along the way getting rid of Antonio Brown, Tarik Cohen etc. when Keenan, Julio and DJ had lower values. It worked out well for me in the end. Never underestimate owners that fall in love with a single player for a high cost.

[dhawkeye1980]

OBJ is out. Guess im rollin hogan

[Tyler2106]

A genuine and honest "good luck" goes out to you. I hope for the Patriots sake I'm wrong and Hogan goes off.

[MURedHawk235]

Need TE help. Been using Jordan Reed all season then Ian thomas last week. On the plus side I've made it to the championship without really needed at TE all season.


Ian Thomas vs Atl (not sure I trust Newtons shoulder, he looked terrible last game)
Gerald Everett @ Ari
Chris Herndon vs GB
Blake Jarwin vs TB (Last two games were decent, got 7 targets in both)
Vernon Davis @ Ten

bumping from pages ago

I hope for Hogan's sake you are wrong. He's a really cool guy. Got to get to know him for a little bit. He was on the practice squad of the team I use to work for. Most humble and pedestrian guy there is. Was never a pain like some of the other players were.

[velociREPtor]

Carson, Fournette, Ware or Jamal Williams?

So you knew him, thought he was a great guy, but hopes he doesn't do well this week? Weird.

No lol. Read what you said. You said that you hope that you are wrong and that he goes off. I want him to go off. Therefore, I too hope you are wrong.

Should I start Gurley or go with John Kelly/C.J Anderson in my championship game (.5 PPR)?

I also have Kalen Ballage on my bench (RB's are thin in my league). I could also move my flex RB (Cohen) into my RB2 and start a WR3 (Have Pettis and Tate on my bench with Mike Williams and DeDe Westbrook still available).

News came out that Anderson would be the guy behind gurley so of the two handcuffs i would feel best about playing him. between Anderson and Ballage id probably go anderson cause of the match up.

Where did you see this?

*Edit - Never mind I see it now. Feel like that's BS. Anderson just got there this week.

Anderson was a 1000yd rusher last season with fresh legs after essentially sitting out this season. As quickly as he can get up to speed on the scheme/playbook is as quickly as he'll ascend to #2 on the depth chart. If he's there already, it seems like he's a quick learner.

According to Yahoo, McVay said he's going to be their #2 without getting a practice in. Apparently, the offensive scheme they run is similar to what Anderson has be involved with before joining the Rams.

I'm trying to decide if I should start Anderson or Wilson Jr since Breida is so injury plagued.

If it comes out that Gurley is out come Sunday, and Anderson is starting I'd definitely start him over any 49er RB. Trash run def. for AZ and they need to get that run game going to help out Goff.

[dhawkeye1980]

Ware doubtful

Purely speaking in terms of them playing a chit QB and being pissed about losing 2 straight in December. Historically TB and company play strong after losing 2 straight. Seen that somewhere the other day lol.
