Collins, D. Cook or Murray?

 

Looks like Cook is back to 100% so he should be the guy in MIN but he has a tough match-up vs. Chicago.

 

Bengals run D is awful and I feel like the Ravens will run the ball a lot regardless of who starts at QB, so I am leaning Collins.

[Mackus]

I'd go Cook.  Collins has a far better matchup but he's just been completely TD or bust this year, so if he doesn't find the end zone I don't think he racks up tons of yards.  I also think Buck and Montgomery will eat into his touches.  Cook has concerns about touches as well, and a tough opponent, but you don't doubt the talent.

4 or 6 point passing TDs?

 

Probably Cam either way, but definitely if it's a 4 pt league.  Ryan has sick numbers at home, though, so really can't go wrong.

6 point Passing TD's 

 

The home advantage for Ryan is definitely something to consider.  Dallas D seems a little more potent than Detroit's though.

I went with Collins thankfully.

Ertz or Gronk for TE? Ertz laid an egg last week but I think he's still the better bet.

For flex (non-PPR): Mike Evans, James White, Sony Michel, or Dalvin Cook?

[McNulty]

Ertz definitely.

I like white out of those

Ben at DEN or Rivers vs. ARI?

 

Scenario: Down 33-10.8 (LiveProj 110.74-96.06) because Amari Cooper went off. I already have a bye locked up but am looking to get the top seed which wins $100 (currently a game up on a guy who should win this week).

[BobPhelan]

Russell Wilson or Baker Mayfield

[Mackus]

Yikes. Hope you started Baker

[BobPhelan]

Nope! Lol

[McNulty]

Ertz worked out but White didn't.  

[Mackus]

White wasn't bad, but I stuck with Evans. Also had Sony Michel on my bench who went off. He will require consideration moving forward.

I'm gonna win and clinch a playoff spot unless Watson and Hopkins go crazy and score like 70 points.

[Mackus]

Ben at DEN or Rivers vs. ARI?

 

Who are you starting this week?  They are playing each other in Pittsburgh.  I'm going Ben.  Rivers is playing better, and Pittsburgh has the weaker defense, but Ben is just throwing the ball so damn much this season and he's playing at home.

[Mackus]

Need a RB and a Flex from:  Sony Michel, Mike Evans, James White, Dalvin Cook, Rob Gronkowski

 

Michel and Evans are my choices currently. 

[NewMarketSean]

Michel and Gronk.

 

I think Brady isn't the FF QB he once was but I am still all in on the other position players.

Going with Ben too for the reason you stated. He also just has a higher ceiling than Rivers, and relatively the same floor. Seems like Rivers' caps out at around 25ish (6 pt TD league) most weeks. I like Ben's upside weekly given their passing attack.

 

One more from you guys...need two of:

Joe Mixon vs. DEN

Matt Breida @ SEA
Chris Carson vs. SF

Gus Edwards @ ATL

[Mackus]

I'd go Mixon and Edwards, but all 4 guys are pretty similar and all have positive matchups.  Mixon is obviously the best talent, but a bit of uncertainty with how the Bengals offense will work without Dalton.  Could mean a ton more touches and be a positive for him or could mean teams stack the box to shut him down.  He's probably the biggest risk both for upside and downside.

[BobPhelan]

1 of Ware (OAK), Chubb (HOU), Ekeler (PIT), Mack (JAC)

Do or die game for playoffs

[Mackus]

Chubb. Even with the tough matchup, I'll go with the most talent.

[BobPhelan]

Chubb. Even with the tough matchup, I'll go with the most talent.

I’ll go with that. If Brees didn’t underperform I’d be feeling much better right now.
