Absolutely Thompson.

[JordanKough]

I really don't love the matchup against New Orleans...but he has had 27+ average in weeks that Kelley was out. But if Woodhead plays, I've got this feeling he's gonna have 7+ catches. And New Orleans is gonna stick someone on Thompson every play. 

 

Teams have really honed in on Thompson of late when's on the field it seems. But yeah...

[JordanKough]

At WR in a different league, also PPR, starting 3:

 

Fitzgerald, Allen, Smith-Schuster, Landry, Maclin. I also have Thompson in this league and am using him as the 4th flex spot I've got, but could roll with 4 of these receivers instead too. 

 

I'm leaning towards Fitz, SS, Landry and Thompson, but could easily see the case for Allen being a must play too. 

[Hooded Viper]

Okay I have 2 players that are backup RB's for me as Christian McCaffrey is on a bye and my other starter is hurt.  So I have Buck Allen going against GB (I am already starting Alex Collins) or I can start Jamal Williams from GB who is going against the Ravens.  I feel the Ravens are going to stack the box and make Hundley try and beat him, but I don't think I can start 2 RB's from the same team.    

[NewMarketSean]

Williams on volume alone and we're not good at stopping the run anyway.

[Stringer Bell]

The real question is Collins v Williams. I have both and intend to start one or the other but can't decide which.

[NewMarketSean]

Williams. Woodhead is back and will eat into Collins usage. Williams is the volume play.

[Stringer Bell]

I tend to agree and that's how I have it set as if now.

[Hooded Viper]

Ok here is a good problem to have: David Carr (Vs Pats) or Alex Smith (Vs Giants). Both defense are bad!

[Mackus]

I like Smith better but you're right, no wrong choice.

[Hooded Viper]

I like Smith better but you're right, no wrong choice.

Yeah the only thing I worry about is KC going up quick and then just running the ball. I don’t worry about that with the Raiders because their D can’t control Brady so Carr will have to continue to throw.

Edit: And there are 20 MPH gusts in NY today. Think I am starting Carr, I am the points leader in my league but only by 20 and the guy just behind me scored 120 pts with Ben and Brown Thursday! Need to keep up.

Start one of Clement, Darkwa, Collins or Mixon. Which one do I start?

[Miller192]

Darkwa by a coin flip over Mixon

[Biggsy]

Debating on whether to start Morris or Dion Lewis this week in my flex.

[NewMarketSean]

Darkwa by a coin flip over Mixon

That's my thinking. Browns stuffed Mixon last time and their run defense isn't that bad.

[NewMarketSean]

Debating on whether to start Morris or Dion Lewis this week in my flex.

Probably Morris. But it's also a coin flip.

[Chris B]

With Juju out, need one WR and one flex: Kenny Stills at NE Corey Coleman at CIN Corey Davis at IND Joe Mixon vs CLE Devontae Booker at OAK

[BobPhelan]

Should I go Drew Brees, Case Keanum, or Tyrod Taylor at QB this week? Been starting Brees all year but this week is must win and I’m also starting Mark Ingram.

[NewMarketSean]

I'd go with Brees.

[JordanKough]

I wouldn't start Taylor, but I'd think hard about Keenum. The Atlanta game could be high scoring, it's in a dome. Brees has been solid, but if you need really big upside, Keenum has been on fire. But Brees is at home in a huge game.

 

I've got my own Brees decision to make. I'm in a 2 QB league, I've got Brees, McKown and Bortles. Bortles and McKown have home dream matchups right now. Drawing Ind and KC respectively. I'm leaning to Brees and McKown, but I think Bortles and McKown are both going to put up close to 20 points each this week...
