Sit/Start Week 14 - Playoff time!

Playoff time in my money league and I got some decisions to make.

Got 4 RB's to fill 3 slots (2 RB + one flex).

Chris Johnson vs NO (he will start)
Bradshaw @ Dal
Benson vs Hou
Jonathan Stewart vs Atl

Right now leaning towards CJ2k, Bradshaw and Stewart. I like the Atl matchup better with Stewart.

Chris Johnson vs NO (he will start)
Bradshaw @ Dal
Benson vs Hou
Jonathan Stewart vs Atl
Comes down to Benson and Stewart for me. I just don't like how much you gotta worry about DWill and Cam eating into Stewart's production. Houston and Atlanta are both top 5 in terms of points allowed to RBs, so that doesn't factor in much for me. I've always thought Benson was very mediocre, but I think you gotta go with the starter here who also gets the goal line carries.

Sittin' down Blount vs Jac and plugging in Damian Williams vs NO as my flex. Hope it pays off. Blount is just too inconsistent for me at the moment. He should have blown up last week, but got me nothing. Jags are stingy against the run and their DBs are all injured, so if anyone has Mike Williams, start him with confidence.

Jags are 16th against the run in terms of fantasy points allowed, and Damian Williams has really only had two good weeks all year. I personally think Blount is a better start there.

I'm actually thinking about it (unfortunately). He has looked much better lately at least.

Flex position.

Santana Moss vs NE
or
Torrey Smith vs Indy

Both have great matchups although I'm worried Baltimore will run all day long vs the Colts.

Santana Moss vs NE
or
Torrey Smith vs Indy
I'd say if you're projected to lose by a decent amount then I'd go with Smith because he has more huge game potential, but other than that I think Moss is the better start here.

Surprise, surprise, I need WR help

Pick 2:
Welker @ Wash
S. Smith vs ATL
Lloyd @Seattle
Maclin @MIA
Floyd vs BUF
A.J. Green vs Houston

Welker and Green

I suppose Jahvid Best is done for the year right?

I suppose Jahvid Best is done for the year right?

Yep.

Flex spot:

Bradshaw @DAL
Loyd @SEA
Steven Jackson @SEA
S.Holmes vs KC

I'm leaning towards Bradshaw, but I like Lloyd's potential.

Just noticed that Fred Davis is now suspended.:rant:

Do I play Ballard or Gresham at TE?

Surprise, surprise, I need WR help
I think you gotta go with Welker (he was wearing a soft cast on his wrist today though so keep an eye on that). Steve Smith has tailed off quite a bit lately so I think I'd give Green the nod.

I'm leaning towards Bradshaw, but I like Lloyd's potential.
I'd go with Bradshaw. I'll always take the guy who's guaranteed to get far more touches when the options are close. Especially with how bad that Rams offense has been.

Do I play Ballard or Gresham at TE?
I'd go with Gresham. Both are inconsistent, but Ballard hasn't had a good game in over a month.

My RB game is a mess this week. Need some help.
Bensen vs Houston D
Wells vs niners D
Or Brown vs Balt D
Have skittles vs the rams starting in one slot.
Lookin to fill the other with one of the three
And deciding if I should start garçon in my flex or another RB.

Let me know what y'all think.

Flex:

Maclin (Mia) or Spiller (SD) or Wayne (Bal)

Flex:

Maclin (Mia) or Spiller (SD) or Wayne (Bal)

Id go with Spiller.

--------------
Which QB?

Fitzpatrick vs SD
Grossman vs Pats
Moore vs Phi

and which RB?

Morris vs Min
Gerhart vs Det
Donald Brown vs Bal
Marion Barber vs Den

Thanks

Last week of the reg. season in this league. Win and I'm in.

Pick 3 (non-PPR):

Larry Fitzgerald
Hakeem Nicks
Mike Williams (TB)
Damian Williams
Malcom Floyd

Nicks is a shoo-in and even though he's had a down year I'm not about to sit Fitzy in a must-win game. But the WR3 spot is driving me nuts. Leaning D. Williams against a bad NO secondary and with Nate Washington likely out. Floyd and M. Williams are always flex options if AP plays (in which case I'd be benching Gerhart)

Also, Jets D at home vs. KC or Niners D at AZ?

Id go with Spiller.

Man oh man. I think Rex has the most upside of the QBs but I'm not sure I want to be the guy to recommend you play the Sex Cannon in a must-win. He's also without his #1 guy, Fred Davis.

The RBs are easier. Morris, then Gerhart if AP doesn't go. Brown is splitting carries in a wretched matchup and Barber's matchup isn't much better. There's always the chance Barber could poach a score IF -- and this is a big if -- Hanie is able to get them down the field that far.

I think you gotta go with Welker (he was wearing a soft cast on his wrist today though so keep an eye on that). Steve Smith has tailed off quite a bit lately so I think I'd give Green the nod.




I'd go with Gresham. Both are inconsistent, but Ballard hasn't had a good game in over a month.

You screwed the pooch on those pics!:laugh:

Marshawn Lynch vs Chicago OR

Ryan Grant against KC


Also Phil Rivers against Baltimore or

Skelton, Locker,Grossman all with easier match ups


Im pretty rattled with my match up this week. Went 11-2 on the season with a 1st round bye and my opponent has Rodgers and Nelson against the chiefs...

^ Lynch and Rivers


In the Semis and just lost Murray for the year, but I have good depth.

Pick one to pair with Rice:

Benson vs. STL
F.Jones vs. TB
Helu vs. NYG

leaning Benson right now.

Pick 1:

Maclin vs NYJ
Spiller vs MIA
Grabbing Titus Young who is currently a FA (@ OAK)

Antonio Brown or Mike Wallace?

i have them both, and i don't want to start both in case the 49ers D shuts the steelers down or something.

Wallace is pretty solid, but so is Brown and he had like 20 points last week. who do you think will have the bigger game?

^ Lynch and Rivers

Maybe I'm crazy but I think the choice is between Helu and Felix. Both guys have absolutely no competition, both have great matchups, and both catch the ball well. I also like that both guys have more big-play ability than Benson. I like Helu, then Jones, then Benson.

Pick 1:

Maclin vs NYJ
Spiller vs MIA
Grabbing Titus Young who is currently a FA (@ OAK)

I like Spiller here.


Got one of my own, pick 1:

Laurent Robinson
Demaryius Thomas
Antonio Brown

Lost Greg Jennings, I have the following 4 receivers, choose 3:

Laurent Robinson
Julio Jones
Demaryius Thomas
Donald Driver

thanks in advance.

Which qb should i start?

Moore vs Buf
Grossman vs NYG
Fitzpatrick vs Mia

and which two WRS?

Torrey Smith vs SD
Mario Manningham vs Was
Desean Jackson vs NYJ
Demaryius Thomas vs NE

Your QB choice is a very tough one. No idea there. Rex could light up that Giants D or having an awful day. Moore and Fitzpatrick could be playing in freezing cold conditions.

As for the WR's: I would go with Manningham and Thomas.

Semifinal with the undefeated team so far, pretty much mission impossible, I need two (one WR and one Flex) between these names in a PPR League:

Boldin @ SD
Bradshaw vs WAS
Steven Jackson vs CIN
Loyd vs CIN
N.Washington @ IND

Boldin has been somewhat a disappointed (I have also Holmes which is even worse though), you never know how much the Rams offense will struggle and Bradshaw has been mediocre since his return. I like Washington upside vs a horrible team, but he's not reliable at all. Suggestions?

Ive been wrestling with this decision all week and am about to lose my mind.

Matt Ryan or Matt Stafford.

Obviously I need to know if I want to play Ryan by tonights kickoff time. Ive flip flopped on this decision every couple hours and feel that no matter what I choose it will be the wrong decision.

take ryan... jags d is absolutely decimated by injuries right now

Yeah, go with Ryan. Home matchup vs a road matchup is the difference here.

Cj spiller or Ben Tate? Got McFadden and forte on my bench. Ouch.

Ryan Matthews hosting Baltimore or Darren Sproles at Minnesota?

You screwed the pooch on those pics!:laugh:
Ah, the beauty of fantasy. ;)

Marshawn Lynch vs Chicago OR
Ryan Grant against KC
Also Phil Rivers against Baltimore or
Skelton, Locker,Grossman all with easier match ups..
This is a tough call. Grant scored more last week than Starks has all year, so it would seem they use him a little differently. Phenomenal matchup this week as well, not to mention the Bears have a pretty solid run D. I think Lynch has just been too good lately to sit. Gotta go with Rivers on your other one. I don't want to rely on any of those other guys, no matter how tough Rivers' matchup is.

Benson vs. STL
F.Jones vs. TB
Helu vs. NYG
I'd definitely go with Felix. He looked great last week, and he's the only guy there (and the Bucs give up the most points to RBs in the entire league). I expect him to have a big week.

Maclin vs NYJ
Spiller vs MIA
Grabbing Titus Young who is currently a FA (@ OAK)
Miami absolutely shut McCoy down last week, but the Jets is obviously a bad matchup for Maclin. I'd go Spiller (especially since Maclin still seems banged up).

Antonio Brown or Mike Wallace?
Tough to sit Wallace, but at the end of the day Brown's been the better (fantasy) receiver since week 7. I think you gotta go with him.


Laurent Robinson
Demaryius Thomas
Antonio Brown
Comes down to Robinson and Brown for me. I think with Ben banged up you gotta go with Robinson. Thomas is an interesting option, but it's not worth the gamble when you have other solid receivers.


Laurent Robinson
Julio Jones
Demaryius Thomas
Donald Driver
Well hopefully you started Julio, but I think that was pretty obvious given the options. Driver's the guy to sit here, even with Jennings out.

Moore vs Buf
Grossman vs NYG
Fitzpatrick vs Mia

Moore's banged up, and Jake Long probably isn't playing, so he's out. I know Fitzpatrick hasn't been good lately but I think you still gotta start him over Grossman. The fact that the Giants have given up more points to QBs than any team in the league makes it real close though.

Torrey Smith vs SD
Mario Manningham vs Was
Desean Jackson vs NYJ
Demaryius Thomas vs NE
Can't believe I'm saying it but I'd go Smith and Thomas. Manningham's an afterthought in NY now, and between DJax being terrible this year and also having to deal with Revis I think you gotta sit him.

Boldin @ SD
Bradshaw vs WAS
Steven Jackson vs CIN
Loyd vs CIN
N.Washington @ IND
I think I'd definitely go Washington just due to the great matchup. I don't think Bradshaw's anywhere near 100% so I think you gotta sit him. Boldin's just not that good anymore (fantasy wise), so I'd sit him as well. Odds aren't great either Lloyd or SJax will score, but at least SJax will touch the ball twenty times. I'd go with him.

Cj spiller or Ben Tate? Got McFadden and forte on my bench. Ouch.
I'd be real tempted to go Tate here. The Panthers have been run all over all year, and Miami's been real good against the run.

Ryan Matthews hosting Baltimore or Darren Sproles at Minnesota?
I know it's a worse matchup but I think you still gotta go with Mathews.

Cj spiller or Ben Tate? Got McFadden and forte on my bench. Ouch.

Tate.

Ryan Matthews hosting Baltimore or Darren Sproles at Minnesota?

Mathews.


Pick 3, .5 PPR

AP
Felix Jones
Beast Mode
Reggie Bush

Cam Newton or Tim Tebow

Cam Newton or Tim Tebow

Newton.

Daniels or Winslow

I can play 3 of the 4. Thoughts?

Antonio Brown
Nate Washington
Laurent Robinson
Jabar Gaffney


Also have a RB problem. My RB position was one of my few no worry areas until injuries hit, Fred Jackson and DeMarcus Murray going down leaves a hole in my No. 2 RB position. Lynch is my 1, but have these guys to choose from for the 2

Jacobs
Sproles
Barber
Grant

Was leaning towards Sproles but not positive.

Cam Newton or Tim Tebow

I'd go Tebow. That Texans D is pretty good and I think they are going to shut him down.



Daniels or Winslow

Daniels, Yates uses him as his first or second option. He may or may not get you a TD, but he should be good for at minimum 70 yards.

AP
Felix Jones
Beast Mode
Reggie Bush
Felix without a doubt. Then I think you gotta go AP. As good as Lynch has been it's not a great matchup, and he really doesn't catch balls, so I think you gotta go Bush.

Cam Newton or Tim Tebow
I'd definitely go with Newton.

Daniels or Winslow
Daniels at least had a big week last week, and has been the slightly more productive of the two. I'd go with him.

I have 5 options, need to choose 3 (RB, RB, Flex)

Adrian Peterson
Ahmad Bradshaw
Roy Helu
Kevin Smith
Ladainian Tomlinson


AP and Helu are locks, would anybody take Smith this week over Bradshaw? :help:

Yes. Smith will be the main focus out of Detroit's backfield and will catch passes as well. Bradshaw will be doing a 50-50 split with Jacobs and still isn't 100%.

I stuck with Benson and Jones woulda got me 13. Hopefully Ced at least equals that. I just didn't wanna put all my eggs in the Dallas basket as I have Romo, Dez and the Defense as well.

QB 1 Brady
RB 1 Ray Rice
RB 2 Grant
Flex Torey Smith
WR 1 Nicks
WR 2 Antonio Brown
TE Graham
ST/D Ravens
Kicker Gostkowski

Bench:

Forte (Out)
Ingram (Out)
Antonio Gates
49ers D/ST
Tim Tebow
Heyward-Bey
Donald Driver

In the championship.

Can't decide which D to start. Also heavily debating Driver in for Smith.

Im playing for a chance at a second straight fantasy championship this week; my biggest dilemmas are:

RB2 - Felix Jones, Roy Helu, Mike Tolbert, or DeAngelo Williams.

and

DST - Eagles (vs Cowboys) or Cardinals (vs Bengals).

Jones and Helu are dinged up; Williams and Tolbert can't be counted on to get significant touches. Hopefully I'll get this figured out before Saturday.

Right now I've got the Cardinals penciled in as my starting defense, but the Eagles have been playing well of late. Not sure what to do here.

Semi Finals for me. This is what I've got as of this morning...

Starting:

QB - E. Manning
WR - Roddy White
WR - D. Bowe
WR - Maclin
RB - MJD
RB - CJ
TE - A Hernandez

Bench:

QB - Fitzdragon
WR - Nate Washington
WR - Torrey Smith
WR - Deion Branch
RB - Green-Ellis
TE - Greg Olsen
TE - Dustin Keller
