Stuck with a Thursday night decision: Bell against BAL or Freeman against SF. Bell worries me coming off the flu but Freeman has been a disappointment all season. 

I have the same situation.  Even considering starting Gallup instead of both.  That said, I think Bell is the correct play. 

[EvilCaseMcCoy 691]

(STD league)

Leveon v BAL

Freeman v SF

Mixon v NE

Singletary v PIT

Drake v CLE

leaning Leveon, Mixon, Singletary.

I have andrews tonight.    I’m really tempted to sit him for Olsen

Philly d @ Washington 

or 

KC d at home v Denver

 

I picked up philly’s d for this run, but KC’s d has been playing better lately. Lock has been playing better than Haskins, but I feel like he’s due to come back down to earth a little bit. I think Houston was feeling themselves and didn’t take that game as seriously as they should’ve. 

Bumping this one before it gets lost in the shuffle. Help a brother out, guys lol.

I doubt Olsen plays, if you’re referring to Greg Olsen. Did he practice today or something?

My team is the 6seed and I play the 1seed, fresh off his little bye...

I am favored by 10 LOL.

and it’s hard to imagine how Tannehill would still be available on waivers in any league this week. Dude has been crushing it...and  contenders should be looking to improve their rosters...always. 

I am the 5th seed playing the 1.  I scored the most points in the league but went 5-8 because I had the most points scored against me.  We have two wildcard spots for most points.

I am favored by 10.

Payout is around $2k.  I have won the last two years.  Payouts very because we do free agent bidding and there is no limit on bids.  Whatever you bid is actual cash added to the pot.

[Iceman 2,720]

a couple of us keep trying to work in a 'keeper' system, even if it is only one player being retained from this season to next.  Some of our guys just don't want to do it.

It's cool.  We've had a fun league since 2002.

We all work together across Texas, talk a lot of shit, and everyone always pays.  LOL.

This guy in my league was 0-4 at one point.  Ended up squeaking in to the playoffs.    He had the most points.  Other dude started 7-0.   Ended with lowest point total but everyone was scoring 85 pts against him.  
 

Im a ten point fav in my game.  He’s starting Eli Manning , Sutton , sanders , ok Howard etc.  but anything can happen

Sounds like he is playing. I have him as well and just checked the ESPN Fantasy App. 

[spystud13 2,371]

All the Andrews owners kicked their dog, then had to apologize two plays later. 

[Iceman 2,720]

That was damned near a 10 point swing from team's L Jackson's TD to my opponent's Ingram getting the rushing TD.

Then he still got the 2PAT... bastard.

 

Jets need to keep scoring so Baltimore doesn't let up...

[Deej 76,842]

My favorite time of the year, when the league doofus is working hard to finish in the top of the consolation bracket. Get a fucking life.

[The People’s Elbow 707]

I’m not watching tonight’s game. How has Baltimore scored 21 pts yet Tucker has one fantasy point (for PAT made)? Is he kicking tonight?

[The People’s Elbow 707]

Never mind. He missed then they went for 2. I see the box score now. 

[Iceman 2,720]

Lamar Jackson is better than average.  just like the chicks on Hallmark Channel.

[spystud13 2,371]

Free fucking gift on the blocked punt for all the Lamar & Ingram owners, they would have been done otherwise. 

[Radical Larry 28,648]

That’s ridiculous.

[youdunnf'dup 2,147]

Seriously, man. RIP to fantasy owners who died tonight because of Lamar Jackson.

[CurlyDumps 4,476]

More TE fun this week with Engram out again. (0.5 PPR)

Gesicki @ NYG - Giants have been average vs. TE's but just got donkey punched by Ertz/Goedert last week.

Ian Thomas vs. SEA - Nice matchup (Seattle 3rd worst vs TE's). Olsen ruled out again. Thomas had 10 targets last week.

OJ Howard @ DET - had a nice game last week with Evans out, but still sharing targets with Brate.

[HornPhD 1,368]

Need to fill 2 flex positions from the following (PPR):

OBJ 

White

Kirk

Slayton

AJ Brown

Singletary

My starters are Watson, Kupp, Edelman, Zeke, Gordon, and Kelce 

 

[HiggyBaby 2,541]

Flex one, standard league:

Lockett @ CAR
Metcalf @ CAR
McLaurin vs PHL


I just don’t know what to make of the Seattle receivers these days. I’m leaning McLaurin.
Or go to Waivers and get Darius Slayton.

[HiggyBaby 2,541]

Lol I sat him now have to flex someone else... I was offline and didn’t think he was going to go.

I'm in a very similar predicament. My grab bag of junk looks like this:

• Kaden Smith vs MIA
• Jacob Hollister @ CAR
• OJ Howard @ DET

 

In your case I lean Thomas but it is hard to trust a guy after 1 game. I'd probably rank them Thomas, Howard, then Gesicki.

Probably leaning Hollister, Howard, Smith in my case.

Feels like a toss up between Hollister and Howard.  Hollister will have limited upside if SEA runs 30+ times. Jameis with a gimpy throwing had scares me.

I'd probably lean Hollister because he has the better QB.

I’m going with Slayton this week. Miami is 30th in points given up to receivers.

 

Philly is 31st, but I trust Eli more than Haskins.

Traded Engram before he got hurt.  James Connor to and AJ green last year.

[youdunnf'dup 2,147]

So Devante Parker officially passed concussing protocol, and he’s gonna be active tomorrow against the Giants. With that being said, am I crazy for considering Fitzpatrick against the giants over winston at the lions (assuming the weather isn’t crazy in NY). I know Winston was throwing footballs on Friday, but I’m getting spooked by his situation. 

[ChiTownDoc 21,154]

DeVante Parker

Waller 

Higbee

Pick 2 of 3?

Leaning Parker / Waller.  

[Iceman 2,720]

So last week, I ignored CBS rating Miles Sanders over Aaron Jones and it paid off with Aaron Jones going for 31pts against the Redskins.\

Jones has had some other monster games this season and they have been followed by weeks with single digit production.  He also faces the Bears DST today.

Sanders faces those same Redskins this week that Jones crushed last week.  Jordan Howard is also not playing, nor is Alshon Jeffrey.  I am leaning starting Sanders.

Whichever guy I pick will go for 8 points and the guy on the bench will have 35...

Trust the roster you built, or start reading into too many indicators?  This time of year drives me nuts, with regard to FF...LOL.

I grabbed Slayton in my semi-final to fill the revolving door of TY Hilton subs.  Had I not done that it would have been Jamison Crowder...but I'm, you know, an idiot.

 

[To be named later 1]

Can returning Adam Thielen be trusted versus the Chargers?

I’m keeping him on the bench, and starting John Brown @ Steelers, Deebo Samuel versus Falcons, and Anthony Miller @ Packers.
Non-PPR
Advice?

[ChiTownDoc 21,154]

Love Deebo

Im starting Edelman, ARob, and Parker but Deebo vs ATL is a solid play.  Would be hard to start Thielen there...

[RockyMountainHighHorn 893]

Would the snow storm in kc make you think second about mahomes? Wonder what the stats are like in snow storms 

[To be named later 1]

Good question, and I don’t know the answer. Perhaps see if he played in snow during his days in Lubbock and use that as a slim indicator?

[Redneck Mutha 8,006]

I got Sutton, Lindsey, and Butker playing in the snow.  Potential replacements would be Miller and Montgomery playing in 14 degree weather in GB.  Opponent has Lamar, so I'm probably fucked regardless.

Jameis Winston is out here doing jameis Winston things again. An early int, but 200 yards and 2 tds in the first quarter lol

It's like they cannot get the ball back to Tampa Bay quickly enough.  It's insane.

My opponent has Jameis and Godwin.

My team is on its way to setting a season high in points and the Bucs are keeping him in the mix.  Fuck that...LOL

On another front, it appears my continued handwringing over Aaron Jones and Miles Sanders is all for naught. Both are doing well today, with Sanders having the upper hand so far.

Woo-hoo!

[youdunnf'dup 2,147]

Well Godwin is definitely out for the rest of the game, and possibly for the season. So there’s that.

That sucks.  I don't want dudes getting hurt like that.

Jameis goes for back to back 40 point games in the fantasy playoffs.
