No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.

Green Gloves posted:

If Shady is out this week do I start:

1) Ware/Ajayi/Charles
2) Ware/Ajayi/Gillislee
3) Ware/Charles/Gillislee

I am guessing Ware/Ajayi/Gillislee based on workload but its so weird to be benching Charles. Cant he be productive with a workload similar to last week?

I mean its quite possible that KC can run for over 200 yards on NO. Theres no way KC is not scoring rushing tds (hopefully not Smith or West). What do you expect the Ware/Charles split to look like? I would be pleased if it was the same as last week.

Maybe 60/40 Ware/Charles. Reid keeps on saying how he's not ready to unleash Charles fully. That probably works out because Ware is playing really well too. I've got Ware going in my flex and I'm hoping he gets me 14 points in standard.

Another thing to note I think Foster can end up being a passing down back but lets not pretend hes anything more. I dont get why people are still holding out for Foster. There hasnt been a rb that has broken out for 200 yards and loses his lead back role. Especially when the team wins and the running game actually showed it has life for the first time the entire season.

Drew Brees is a tough one. Being a huge KC homer I want to automatically say sit him. I want to say the game at Pitt is the exception to what we've seen and the Pitt game was a rain soaked crazy game. However Brees is really good and the Chiefs starting corner not named Peters went down with a knee injury.

That said, there is addition by subtraction because largely ineffectual defensive lineman Allen Bailey is out, allowing rookie and dominating tackle of the future Chris Jones to start. I don't know if that changes things, maybe not. The Chiefs defense is a lot better than we saw in Pittsburgh though.

Hello fellow Nuk owner. I to wish for the swift death of Brock Osweiler.

Ty was a toss to the side and run type they really didn't run him proper through the line from what I remember. Fucker is fast and has potential to be a good RB. With Starks not making GBS threads up the place and Lacy out getting fat again Ty is a bit of a wild card but I'd argue a decent PPR prospect.

All that said: Hilton, Wallace (Revis is washed up) and sigh reluctantly while you play DT.
RB: Gordon ATL can't hold a RB. I'd go with Howard over Gilly just because we don't know how Gilly will do in a fulltime situation.

Why would u drop Jordan Howard. Hes been rock solid and/or amazing as the lead back. Latavius is hurt and has plenty of competition for touches when he is back. That would have been my drop.

Your lineup looks fine.

Oh man you're advocating going against DSYS just like I am because of Osweiler. Nuk got 15 targets last game and I just feel so lovely to bench him but it just seems like Denver is going to eat Osweiler alive. I think I'm really tempted to put in Wallace over him too but the target difference is just so dire.

Nicely played. I can be a little flexible in my lineup as well, so I may end up switching Marvin back in. Either way, we are on the Meredith train!

Maclin isn't a terrible start if you are really worried about Hopkins (full disclosure: I am since I own him on a team). Maclin/Charles both are up against New Orleans so they should be able to get theirs.

Take me to your Shida

I need to start three WR and two RB in PPR. Current starters in Bold

WR: A. Brown, M. Evans, T. Austin, T. Williams
RB: Gurley, Ingram, Gore, T. West, Gillisee

I'm basically picking between Austin and Williams at WR, but I could see an argument for almost any combination of RBs (especially if Shady is out), though I am really hesitant to sit Gurley.

Yeah that is my thinking too. Counterpoint: last week was another tasty passing matchup and the Chiefs did jack poo poo with it. But I expect this one to be a shootout where Reid can't just run the ball 9 billion times and hope to keep up with Brees.

...who am I kidding, Reid would run the ball 3 times and punt down 3 scores in the 4th.

I can't remember exactly, but didn't it rain a bunch during that game? Which could explain some of playcalling decisions.

I'm not entirely against it it's just Brock is SO bad I'm not sure of Nuks fantasy stud status especially against the likes of Denver or Minnesota. Nuk is still incredible as a player but I think he'll easily get outscored in games that are bad for Brock. He feels more like a matchup guy completely dependent on his QB not making GBS threads his pants this season.

Meredith seems to have great chemistry so far, plus the Packers are depleted.


1PPR, trying to decide my flex - I feel like Ty Montgomery has really great sneaky value as a WR/RB hybrid on a team with few options, but can also play it safe with a more boring choice of Britt, Diggs, Tevin Coleman, or Mike Wallace.
