Repost, but pick three of these dudes, standard scoring: Ingram @ Chi Gordon v Cin Benjamin v TB Crowell v Cin I feel pretty good about Ingram and Benjamin, but I'm having a headache trying to figure out what the Browns will do on offense. Bengals are poor at defending the run. Part of me thinks the Browns are going to run it a lot to take pressure off Manziel, the other part thinks they will be trying to stretch the field to take advantage of Manziel's scrambling ability. Thoughts? Anyone? Bueller?

Somehow made it to both of my league's semis, and I'm facing an uphill battle after starting Mason on Thursday as RB2 in both.... Need some advice on both flex situations. League 1: L. Murray vs. KC D. Moncrief vs. Houston League 2: D. Herron vs. Houston M. Bryant vs. ATL I originally planned on plugging in both RBs as the safer bet, but now I feel like I need more of a homerun in each league, and am starting to lean towards the receivers. Any advice?

With so much uncertainty about Manziel and how he affects the offense, I'm going to stick with the more productive player recently with the much easier match up. Gordon could have a big day, but I don't think a couple rushing touchdowns and a few long runs for Crowell are too unlikely either.

Shanahan's offense works well with a mobile QB and back in the day Alfred Morris benefitted heavily as a result. I think Crowell will have a similar situation. Also not trusting Flash until he shows he's back in the groove... no doubt he's a talent but he might not be back in the swing of things just yet. Of course, because of this recommendation, Terrence West will get 20 carries.

So Juilo is probably a no-go. I grabbed Douglas off waivers but also have Watkins on the bench. Also starting Mike Evans and Josh Gordon. Thoughts?

the only thing that worries me about kelce is that he isnt really utilized until theyre trailing, and im not sure game flow would see them trailing for too long in this game. and ill take your advice on lacy i suppose, just dont like the timeshare as thats where he was from weeks 1-6 and his production suffered

Buffalo's pass and run D are equally good, so there's no reason to favor either the pass or the run. I think he's gotta be your guy.

Yahoo standard 0 PPR 3 WR 0 FLEX, pick 3 WRs: D. Bryant @ PHI B. LaFell vs. MIA K. Allen vs. DEN J. Matthews vs. DAL Leaning towards the first 3, but it is possible the DAL/PHI game could be a shootout. Help me get more than 3rd place this year goons.

It isn't even close, they should destroy SF and the sad husk of a QB that they're trotting out. Next I'd go Chiefs, and finally Giants as the riskiest of the three (though still obviously great). Those are like three of the top five or six options this week, though!

With Julio out pick a flex, yahoo standard no ppr: Martavis Bryant @ Atl Crowell v Cin FJax v GB. Harry Douglas v Pit Leaning Bryant, but he is very boom/bust. Crowell would be my 2nd choice. I think the Packers go up early against the Bills, limiting FJax. Douglas is kind of a wild card, who could do well with Julio out.

My playoff life is on the line.  Need a flex and a TE. NFL.com standard scoring.Flex Josh Gordon V. CIN Giovani Bernard @ CLE Jeremy Hill @ CLE Kelvin Benjamin V. TB Jordan Matthews V. DAL Leaning Matthews but I see some potential in Benjamin. Hill and Bernard seem to be locked in a 50/50 struggle nowadays, and Gordon will have a rookie QB in his first start throwing to him and that worries me. TE Antonio Gates V. DEN Greg Olsen V. TB Gates is a favorite target of Rivers, and I think Denver doesn't cover TEs all that well maybe?

Quiet Feet posted:My playoff life is on the line. At TE I don't see how you sit Olsen even with Cam out. It's almost the same situation as above. Do you need steady points or a home run? ESPN Standard Scoring. I'm the highest scoring team in our league (4 seed) playing the 2nd highest scoring team in the league (1 seed) and I've got a couple of quandaries. QB: Romo @ PHI or Sanchez vs DAL I'm leaning Romo here, but that Thanksgiving game was a nightmare so I'm second guessing. WR: White vs PIT or Gordon @ CIN If White were 100% healthy here I'd feel good about this. Did I hang onto Gordon all year just to sit him during my most important game all year?

S.W.O.R.D. Agent posted:I'd say your flex depends on what you need. If you're just looking to make sure you get a solid 7-10 points I'd flex Hill. He's starting and the Bengals are hinting at leaning on one back(Hill). If you need home run points then I'd stick with Matthews. I'm up against a monster team this week and I'd definitely need a homerun. Does Pittsburgh even have any CBs who can cover anymore? I feel like CLE isn't going to go nuts passing with Manziel in his first start, and he strikes me as someone who's going to throw a few picks. Personally I'd go with White. As an Eagles homer I really, really hate saying this but I don't think they'll be able to keep Romo away from Bryant for the entire game this time.

Quiet Feet posted:My playoff life is on the line. I'd probably go with Benjamin over Matthews. Both have cooled off lately, but Benjamin has had many more great games and is going against a much softer defense. Given how poorly Cam has been playing this season, I'm not sure it will even be much of a step down in QB quality with Cam out. Hill is another good option, though I would probably put him just below Benjamin and Matthews, but there's some risk in assuming the noises being made about Hill "being the starter" are true and translate into a larger share of the workload right away. For TE, it's Olsen, you should not have any doubts about that one. Quiet Feet posted:I'm up against a monster team this week and I'd definitely need a homerun. Well, if you really need a homerun, that sort of puts Josh Gordon back in the conversation. I think it's more likely he has another quiet game than a monster game, personally. But all it takes is two long receptions for touchdowns to have a monster day, and Gordon is the most likely to get that out of your options IMO. Probably Benjamin next likeliest for having a big day, then Hill, only because I still think Gio will be plenty involved, even if Hill gets the majority of the carries. sourdough fucked around with this message at 16:09 on Dec 14, 2014 |

Tre Mason's bad game put me in a hole this week. I need a RB, TE, and FLEX out of the following guys. 1 PPR. Latavius Murray @ KC Shane Vereen vs. Mia Bishop Sankey vs. NYJ Delanie Walker vs. NYJ Larry Donnell vs. Was Rueben Randle vs. Was I think Murray is close to a no-brainer at RB. Donnell and Walker both have pretty good matchups. Is it crazy to start one at TE and FLEX the other over Randle/Vereen/Sankey?

It looks like Locker will probably start for the Titans, and Walker has had most of his better games with him at QB. Washington's pass defense is also really bad against TEs. With Vereen being banged up and the unpredictability of the RB situation in NE, I'd rather stay away from him.

Honestly, your WRs are all kinds of awful this week. Landry is supposed to draw Revis, but I think I'd risk it and start him. Then... I guess Shorts? Maybe Baldwin over Shorts, but really Seattle should crush SF and not throw too much.
