Goff vs MIN or Cousins vs NO?

I like Goff. I think he's the better QB and has a better team around him than Cousins. Xavier Rhodes can only shadow Kupp or Woods, and Gurley can always make check down receptions. Goff also tends to pass the ball to the opposing team less than Cousins.





Since Shepard is now definitely out, I'll ask again in case there's something I've missed:

In light of the Shepard news, who should I use as my Flex instead? 1PPR

Doug Martin @ Miami
Keenan Allen vs Buffalo
Danny Woodhead @ GB?

I know I know don't sit your studs but Fournette scares me with his busted up ankle. Should I bench him or Darkwa for Jamal Williams vs BAL? No ppr, standard scoring

Hard to say, a below average Fournette game is still better than a decent Engram game unless he is just a decoy.


How windy is it supposed to be in the north east games?

Is it worth playing playing Kelvin Benjamin with some unknown QB over Marquise Lee or Marvin Jones who might have some wind to contend with?

Also,

Mixon or Darkwa?

Leaning Mixon because Denver's offense is so bad they could run a lot, but I feel like Darkwa has a higher ceiling, and with Shepard out there are even more touches to go around.

On today's episode of Football Absurdity, I offer some counterpoints on whether or not you should ever trust a Patriots running back and whether Tyler Kroft is the man to start this week. Come check out our goon project as you make your last minute choices that will go horribly wrong.

Is Kuechly back? Or is he still concussed?

I don't know how anyone could even consider starting Brate at this point. Dude has put up 1 point in each of the three weeks since Winston went down. Pretty much any other TE is a better option at this point.

Brate is still getting more targets than Howard and is historically a good redzone target. The Bucs offense has been anemic lately and it shows in that their combined targets are way down, but I would still bet that Evans and Brate are the two players most likely to score in the redzone on the team.

Do I play Stefon Diggs at Detroit
Or Mike Evans at Atlanta?

An alternative decision is that I could pick both if I send DeMarco Murray to the bench in my flex spot.

Tough one. I’d go Evans. He’s still the WR1 on his team.

Murray should be fine for at least flex-worthy production against IND.

Goff will still manage. Kupp is looking to bounce back, Gurley is still out there, and Watkins can keep the CBs busy running around on his flat earth. Even Higbee can vulture a TD. I'd run Goff.

Only change I’d make is flexing Collins over Delanie. But it’s not a hard change. Both good options.

Now do me:

I can’t risk playing Freeman for a goose egg with his concussion and my best replacements playing tomorrow.

.5 ppr, pick one:

Darkwa @ WSH
McKinnon @ DET

Same team, flex me if Devonta Freeman sits:

Olsen @ NYJ
Funchess @ NYJ
Juju vs GB

Pick my QB:

Goff vs NO
Tyrod @ KC

^ thanks. I looked at the lines and NO/LAR is at 53.5 (highest) and KC/BUF at 47 (not shabby in itself).

Tempted to go Diggs and Robby but that colts defense might be what Davis needs to explode.

Pick one (my RB’s are garbage besides Bell)
Riddick vs Min
Burkhead vs Mia
Forte vs Car
TyMont @ Pit

Leaning Riddick here, although that Vikings defense is daunting. Burkhead has a better match up but who knows which patriot running back will shine this time.

Robby and Diggs.

I’d prefer to wait until Corey Davis’ breakout before I risk another low floor outing. He is, at best, an emergency flex. He’s had opportunities aplenty to break out by now.

Riddick is your best shot.

Flex or Standard? McKinnon would be the heavy favorite here pretty easily I’d say. Dolphins have been favoring Williams, Martin has been plain bad, CJA has flashed but Broncos seem to be playing Booker more and more. Adams could be a good play, but Steelers pass D has been solid.
