I benched Michael Thomas, and between him and Garrett Wilson I left 50 points on the bench. Thankfully I'm playing against the worst team in the league this week and I'm still going to easily win.

I felt so bad. I figured with no other RBs healthy Drake would do okay. Glad you didn't listen. (I got burned but it didn't make a difference in the result)

No worries, I would have been okay regardless - my opponent had Dak at QB but managed a trade right before kickoff for... Trey Lance.

0.5 ppr pick 2 rbs

J Jacob’s @ Ten
C Patterson @ Sea

Tony Pollard @ NYG
Bryce Hall vs Cin

I’m leaning Jacob and Patterson because they have so many more carries and targets than the other two. I also think Seattle’s run defense against TDs is a mirage.

But Pollard is real tempting.

I think you got it right. I can't see starting Pollard over those 2 this week.

Currently have DEN vs. SF, so I'm looking to stream. Best options seem to be:

ATL @SEA
CAR vs. NO
KC @ IND
PHI @ WSH
DAL @NYG
HOU @ CHI

I got em in that order, but I don't particularly like any of them. Thoughts?

Agreed. Philly defense is good and importantly Wentz is a wild man and May through some picks which is good points for D.

Picking a defense playing against Indy or Seattle is tempting but I think the Philly D slightly edged everyone out.

Plus the only teams they play that are slightly scary after this week is @ARI and vGB



If they stay healthy I think they’ll be a top-5 defense this year

Thank you for pointing this out, I have now replaced GB's DST with the birbs.

When looking at the DSTs in my leagues that use them.... the Jaguars are either 3rd or 4th in DST scoring through week 2, which blows my mind. I know it wont last because lol Jaguars, but still, to even be there at all at any point is hilarious to me.

Oof, thats tough. I think thats a coinflip. Conklin has one more target through 2 weeks but Cincy has the better D of the two so he might be more limited, but but the Jets DL is pretty decent and may kill Burrow on the field. I think if it were me I'd lean Conklin by a hair because the WRs on his team are less proven and Flacco seems to like targeting him.

I think I'll stick with Wentz since I'm going against the worst team and Wentz seems like the most upside going forward (unless Russ gets it going).

Cooper is a stud, don't sit your studs. Dotson for the 10-11pt floor. I dont even know what to think about Metcalf this year with Geno. He's got some targets, just not producing. Chark might have a good game since I figure everyone will be focusing on the Sun God. Of course the goose egg last week for Chark really hurt.

This is tough because yeah, Juju is hard to trust at this point but I just dont trust him. Samuel has been targeted a lot; Washington is likely to be throwing a lot and Slay will likely be on Terry so I could see an argument for him. Hunt has been seeing a decent % of the looks and the Browns D may keep Titty Kisser And The Canada Offense in check. Dillon vs TB just seems like a bad idea to me because their run D and overall D has been so drat good.

If it were me because I'm a JJSS hater I'd play Samuel or maybe Hunt if I were feeling spicy.

Like Spermy Smurf said, Cooper for sure. Like Samuel above, Dotson may see more looks if Terry is covered by Slay a lot but he has been scoring so high because he has caught 3 touchdowns in 2 games so I could see doubting him. Metcalf has been seeing a lot of short looks but Pete has been talking about opening up the passing game so maybe he may see more targets, but with zero PPR he might not be good anyway especially because Atlanta's D has been decent. Chark worries me a little because Goff has been spreading the ball around; he did have 4 targets last week but some were errant and he had at least one drop. I'd lean, uh, Dotson and hope he scores another TD and/or gets some garbage time yards, I guess? Or maybe Chark and hope he gets look if people start trying really hard to take ARSB away?

Trying to keep my 0.5 ppr team afloat until my guys remember how to play football.

RB2:
James Conner v LAR
Ezekiel Elliott @NYG

I would rather start Conner if he stays healthy because Zeke has been nothing but a headache, but if he sits or isn’t 100% it might force my hand anyway. That brings me to my flex

Zeke if Conner starts
Curtis Samuel v PHI
Devonta Smith @ WAS

If Conner is confirmed healthy I’m honestly considering sitting Zeke. Samuel has looked good but the Eagles secondary is no joke. I feel like I’m overthinking this and when Zeke eventually blows up in a division game I’ll regret it.

Thanks for the advice. Week 1 has me spooked about Cooper, I sat him week 2 when he blew up and started Chark who had a huge week 1 and did nothing week 2. I just picked up Dotson off waivers and am concerned about his TDs continuing, but I might as well ride it while I can.

Yeah its a tough call. I end up typing up my thoughts like that when I'm bored at work/procrastinating, I hope the rambling helps because yeah Dotson continuing to catch TDs at this rate is improbable, but I'm a big believer in him so I guess I'm a little biased :v:

Arizona's defense has been abysmal so I would go with Hendo because he should see carries as LA tries to keep the clock moving.

Watching Monty play last week, dude is like Najee but in jackrabbit form. Just dances between tackles and yeah the Bears are garbage but he gets the volume. Wish I took him over Zeke.

Hunt and Chubb are going to flip weeks where one gets 20 and the other gets 5.

I say Monty for floor, Hunt for ceiling.

Henderson in the other league. Normally I would say JRob but the Chargers line is filthy. JK also might be an option but I personally haven’t been paying much attention to him, maybe somebody else can chime in.

And

I like Henderson. I think it's a little tougher after that but Diontae is getting plenty of targets, even if he doesn't have a lot to show for them yet.
