What do we think of playing both Giovanni B and his handcuff Hill over Rashad Jennings? Hill is the bigger back and looks like he could be a goal line vulture. Also Ingram gone "4 weeks" do I just drop him?

IR spot on your bench?

Doesn't matter the scoring, don't bench Jennings for Hill unless Gio is out.

jennings and moreno made a blood pact

they share their power

when one is out full power is transferred to the other

There's no way Brown takes all of MAthews touches. Woodhead will get an increased load. Probably not by much, but still

I hate Pierce more than anybody, but if Balt will continue to give him 2x as many touches as Forsett, you gotta go Pierce.

i prob go sjax/ridley but that is a tough spot

i agree with rawrs and go woodhead



.5 ppr and have complete aids at rb

pick 2

s-jax v TB
rainey or martin @ATL
forsett @ CLE
Toby v Indy


i think that's a pretty ******ed spot but i'm leaning s-jax and then i have no clue. obviously if we get some clarity on rainey/martin that would be important but i suspect we won't have much of an idea what will happen. toby ****ing sucks but at least he is playing a garbage d maybe this will be the week he tops 40 yards (!). forsett meh. lol my rbs. hopefully my waiver claim for donald brown goes through. i could probably even be convinced to play toby/martin or something over s-jax. need help!

.5 ppr pick 1

maclin v washington
michael floyd v SF

does your answer change if palmer plays?

Non ppr. Some pretty tough decisions this week for one of my teams.

Decker @ Chi
AJohnson @ NYG

Leaning decker here depending on hamstring.

Ridley vs Oak
Ellington vs SF
West vs Bal

Need one to go with Forte. I like West a lot but I'm leaning Ridley.

Kelce @ Mia
Donnell vs Hou

No idea here.

Thinking Forsett has the best shot at double digits but thinking that's a reach.

I'm super down on Ridley season long, but I'd play him this week over Ellington and West in Standard, and probably over Forsett in PPR. They're going to run the ball a ton against Oakland, and as long as he doesn't fumble I think he's very likely to get at least one TD. They had something like 27 snaps last week with a 6th olineman in the game.

I actually have Hill as well. It could potentially be a big running day for Cincy. Any sense starting both Gio, Hill, +1 other?

It may be my best bet given the matchup this week. The other team isn't that good, so an average scoring output should be enough to get the win. This would minimize variance.

fjax > forsett > pierce

donald brown also isn't all that good at football. role may be the same but brown more likely to get bench for full series' than mathews was and thats great for woodhead catching balls.

rb bucs feels like a great play. feel better if martin is out. fear a timeshare with rainey is martin is in.

if palmer is out, go maclin over floyd imo.

terrance has been garbage for fantasy so not a great feeling

benching cj1k feels easy tho for gio, stacy, jennings

donnell and kelce shouldn't be close but we've actually seen it in donnell so that works.

6pt passing TDs:
P. Manning @ SEA
Foles vs WAS

It's an auction league, I already had Peyton and Foles was going for way too cheap, that's how I ended up with him. Overthinking it playing him this week based on matchup?

PPR pick 1
Julius Thomas @SEA
Bobby Rainey @ATL (only if Martin is out of course)
Brian Quick vDAL

Am I downgrading Julius too much based on matchup? Went for 4 catches 27 yds in the Super Bowl.

Non-ppr league. Good situation to be in I see suppose for running backs, but not the best for wide receivers. Need 2 rb's, 3 wr's, a flex, and a te out of all of these players.

Lynch vs. Denver
Joique Bell vs. Green Bay
Knile Davis vs. Miami
Cj Spiller vs. San Diego
Ridley vs. Oakland

Wallace vs. Kansas City
Vincent Jackson vs. Atlanta
Sanders vs. Seattle
Randle vs. Houston
Shorts vs. Indianapolis
Kendall Wright vs. Cincinnati

Clay vs. Kansas City
Cook vs. Dallas

My initial thoughts are lynch and Davis for rb's. Wallace, Jackson, and Sanders for wr. Bell for flex, and Cook for te. Also do you think New Orleans defense will have a bigger day against Minnesota than the Panthers will against Pittsburgh?

Thanks guys!

I think you still have to start Peyton and Julius. It's one of those things, imo, where Foles and Rainey (assuming Martin out) might be considered the right play, and if there's ever a time to bench Manning/any Bronco it's this week, but I'd feel worse if I benched them and they put up normal #s than if I played them and they put up worse #s, if that makes sense.

WRs are pretty easy. I like Spiller a little more than Davis, but in non ppr I can also see the case for Ridley since Oakland is so bad.
