Picked up RG3 for QB and the Pats D (somehow) were also available. Either RG3 and Murray need to show up...or the rest of my team needs to play their brains out.

RG3, Murray, Hill, Maclin, OBJr, Kelvin Benjamin, Graham, Pats D, Tucker. Hmmmm...

With him out I am really scrambling as I had him and Cam. So my QB options are Cam, Sanchez or Flacco. I am thinking Flacco because he seems the most reliable for middling production?

I have Murray too. Any suggestions on Herron vs Stewart if I need to bench him?

Wow he was really betting on the Bears this year

 

[slayer202]

I guess it worked, he's in the finals playing for 2 grand

D.Williams supposed to be back so Herron is a better play.

Thoughts on my flex position on the left? Got crowell in there right now. I'm thinking I need to put wallace there. I benched him last week and left 15 points on the bench.

This is the championship for 200 bucks.

Wallace has a plus matchup vs Josh Robinson at home. I'd play him over Crowell on the road vs Carolina, yes.

Hmmm,

Martelllus Bennett with Jimmy Clausen throwing the ball?
Jared Cook against a NYG that are very good against TEs?
Zach Ertz against a horrible beloved patriot defense?

Eh, all not great options but depends on more details. If PPR, go Bennett. He should get volume, but whether that translates to standard production is anyone's guess. Cook, not as good as Bennett but better than Ertz. Ertz, complete boom or bust more likely to bust because of Brent Celek in the mix.

So I'd go PPR Bennett (most volume due to pass rush/run D), Standard Bennett, you have to play your stud TE1's over TE2's regardless of QB (even if said QB is likely to get killed by Detroit pass rush).

Still only at 4/6. Let's go slackers!

TY probably won't play, Demarco Murray will. That is word on the street. Julio is a true GTD.

Just put in my donation, but I think this will be my last week.

Man my WR situation is not looking good. I've been riding Julio and Emmanuel Sanders all year, and plugging in Alshon and Kelvin Benjamin on byes. Julio's probably out, PFM is struggling, Clausen starting for Bears at QB, and unsure who is going to start for Panthers at QB. I'm thinking I should start Sanders, and start Harry Douglas (available for pickup) if Julio is ruled out.

At RB, I've got Forte, Ingram, and FJax. Need to pick two. Right now I have Forte and FJax as Ingram has been sliding the last couple of weeks and FJax is consistent as always, but I'm still flip-flopping. Ugh.

Next week will probably be a $5 week.

One more entry needed for this week's fanduel league!

Who's your flex? I like all 3 RBs. Also, keep an eye on if Joe Haden is out because that is an uptick for Benjamin. I think Harry - Julio and Benjamin > Sanders because Cincy's pass d is stingy at home and Benjamin is most likely to score a TD due to his towering red zone jump ball presence.

Yes, I have been watching for Haden news. We do not have a flex in our league. It is 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, K, DEF.

 

[fenrir]

I hate Philly. Sat McCoy with the way they are using him, and he has a good day after two weeks of suckage. I hope Fred Jackson comes through, or I could play Jonathan Stewart or Steven Jackson.

At least my opponent had Gore sitting on his bench so I guess that offsets McCoy.

Haden out. This presents a big mismatch of Skrine on Benjamin at Carolina. I like this better than Sanders-Peyton on the road in the cold + sanders recovering from the flu doesnt excite me.

For your rb dilemma, I'd roll with who has been more consistent to this point and that leaves Ingram out. Could Ingram blow up? Absolutely, but Bree's is firing on all cylinders and Pierre thomas has his mojo back. Too risky IMO. Forte and fjax.

Nah, just roll with fjax. Especially over jstew, yes Jeremy hill just massacred them last week but cincy is a top 5 run blocking line and hill is an otherworldly talent. Vs Steven jackson, Julio is playing today so that takes some value away and matt Ryan should carry that offense, not Jackson. Fjax simply plays a bigger role than the other two.

 

[Fingolfin269]

Need some advice guys...

Julio is supposedly playing. Start Julio or Douglas? Seems obvious but also high possibility he can't actually compete so I'm concerned. (ended up flipping a coin on this. It came up Julio.)

Demarco Murray. I have ci Anderson on the bench. Do I play anderson over Murray?

 

[EvilYoda]

Week 1 of the championship...and it's a race to the bottom. Both teams are underperforming, with mine doing so at a rate of 40 points under. I can only hope that he's still in reach after this week.

 

[EvilYoda]

And now Demarco's on the sideline for this entire series...with them up 21 points, I'm fucked. He's not going to see any playing time.

 

[MetalMat]

I CAN'T BELIEVE JC only got 9 carries!!! What in the world in Andy Reid thinking?! It's not rocket science
