That's a tough one. Watching Monday Night's game, Stafford had two TDs but only 122 yards passing. And could the increased presence of a healthier OBJ plus new play calling help the offense more and as a result, help the defense? Cousins, on the other hand, hopefully gets an easier passing defense and a game situation that would seem to suggest a passing shootout. Wentz has looked better than Cousins so far, but I think I'd expect a bigger day from Cousins than Wentz. At least I hope so, since I am starting Cousins and sitting Alshon Jeffery.
Pick 5. Jay Ajayi (a given going against the worst ranked run D) CJ Anderson Buck Allen Melvin Gordon Chris Carson Sammy Watkins Terrell Pryor TY Hilton Michael Crabtree (a given also I suppose since he had 3 TD's last week) Also trying to decide between Carson Wentz & Cam Newton
I just dropped Cousins for Wentz last night. Apparently the last two seasons Cousins started out bad the first two weeks and then was a top 5 QB for the rest of the schedule. I still have Pryor so I hope it gets sorted out. I don't know about this specific week though. Cousins I guess but it's very close. I like Wentz's rushing numbers so far.
PPR flex spot Kupp Fitzgerald Higgins Crowell Cohen. Leaning Fitz but Higgins and kupp are making me question it. Palmer has been shitty. My other wrs are Benjamin Green and Devante Parker.
I was bored at work tonight and had the game on, so to have something to do I put Watkins in. I can't believe it worked out. The guy did not even have a single pass thrown his way the entire 1st quarter. He ended up with 100+ and 2 td's. So now I have to decide on who to play with a little more margin for error now though. I'll probably go with sitting Pryor and starting Crabtree and CJ Anderson. I still have Doug Martin coming back. My team feels pretty stacked even for a 10 teamer. I feel like I should try and trade 2 for 1 and get an elite WR like Evans or Beckham.
good call on that watkins who would of thought 40 pts would of been put up by both of those teams haha
Yea, great call on Watkins. And SF scoring 39 on LAR? Week one I started them as DST and they delivered tons of FPs. Of course, that was versus IND and Tolzien. Is the "Son of Bum" already figured out? Need to know since I am using BAL (last week and this) but netw two games are against PIT and OAK so I need a new DST for those games.
man i streamed the rams last night. it started off great. a near pick 6 on the first play. int and FR. multiple sacks. but none of that mattered since they gave up 40 pts in the end
I have a possible injury problem (I know, who doesn't). I plan on starting Gordon and Hunt at RB, with my backup RBs West, Kelley, and Coleman. Gordon comes up with a knee issue, and is "questionable". He probably plays, but if not, what's my best option. His game is the 3:25 game, so my 12 noon RBs (Coleman, West) are out. I will have one RB still left (Fat Rob) since he plays the Sunday night game. Of course, he is also hurt (bruised ribs) but it looks like he will play. So Kelley is Option 1 if Gordon can't play. The other option is dropping someone and adding a RB that plays at 3:25pm or later. Available RBs are Jalen Richard (plays the Sunday night game too) or Branden Oliver (Gordon's backup) or Chris Johnson. I would have to drop someone (either Kelley or West). This would be Option 2. So... which option sounds better? If option 2, which RB to add and which RB to drop. And would the RB added be better long term than the RB I dropped? Thanks in advance!!
I would go with option 1 if Gordon can’t play - keep your team as is and start Kelley. I’d rather take the hit for one week than to drop a starting RB for a one week fill-in / back up running back taking up space on my bench.
I just traded for Julio Jones. I sold high on Fournette and Kelvin Benjamin. Now my line up is: Mariota AJ Green Julio Jones Devante Parker Melvin Gordon Tarik Cohen Larry Fitzgerald/ flex What do you guys think? Wanted to get Tarik to start. PPR money league
Which TE would you stream this week? Fleener (NO) vs CAR Engram (NYG) vs PHI Ebron (DET) vs ATL Cook (OAK) vs WAS Thanks!
I am struggling with same decision. Fleener has scored every game Snead has missed and the last 3 games versus CAR. Cook is getting lots of recommendations though. Think I will stay with Fleener one more week.
Help me deciding FLEX: D. Parker @ NYJ J. Landry @ NYJ D. Baldwin @ TEN T. Cohen vs PIT C. Carson @TEN my other two WRs are: AJ Green and Amari Cooper, so I think im staying with those. also I need help, with Olsen hurt I need to pick a TE, since its 14-team, I got very little choices: J. James @CHI Z. Miller vs PIT B. Watson @ JAX E. Engram @ PHI Thanks in advance
I tend to think Engram is going to get his fair share of looks as Brandon Marshall appears to not have much left in the tank. I dont think he's going to be great by any means, but at this point you need to try and salvage something until Olsen comes back. Oh, and play Doug Baldwin.
Thanks... now it appears Gordon will start, but Kelley won't, so that loses the emergency backup I had. I will still gamble that Gordon does make the start. New question, semi-related. I had been planning to start Kirk Cousins (vs OAK) instead of Ben Roethlisberger on the road vs CHI. Now with Kelley out (less a factor, probably would pass to Thompson instead anyway) but also Reed out, is that enough of a difference to not start Cousins and switch to Roethlisberger?
