Also Ware listed as doubtful...gonna be some spicy finals for sure.

Ohhhh boy!!! That’s great news.

Kalen Ballage or Fournette as my 3rd back? I'm leaning Ballage even though Fournette's projections are nice. Don't trust the touches will be there. Anyone have insight into Fournette @ Miami? How many touches will the rookie get for jax?

Oh YES.

Now we're talking. Things starting to turn Rafiki!




Now it all comes down to what's better: 75% of Gurley, or 100% of Elijah McGuire.

I am a huge dog going into this week but if I get little from Gurley then I am screwed. I know it won’t happen but I almost wish they would just rule him out so I can start someone in the noon game.

Hell yeah! I’ll be starting Williams in 3 spots, including my sit start of DJ vs Diggs earlier. The Ware doubtful vaults Williams over both of those guys.

Your Gurley/McGuire decision is annoying. Obviously it’s Gurley if he goes, but you really might not have that info when the 1 pm games go.

They're talking about letting people know in the morning. I'm assuming CJ Anderson would be a total bust in that spot.

Damn it sounds bad for Juju. lol he's on my gurley team too.

Pretty interesting choice between Foster and James Washington. Ben's real bad on the road right? Ugh as if I gotta maybe start Foster for the championship.

Btw Kenny Clark is out for the Packers, so Elijah is looking like a real nice start at RB this week.

Ben's last 4 on the road since the bye week. They are 2-2.

@Oak 25/29 for 282 and 2 TDs/0 INTs
@Den 41/56 for 462 and 1/2
@Jax 27/47 for 314 and 2/3 + Rushing TD
@Bal 28/47 for 270 and 2/0 + Rushing TD

19.8, 23.3, 24.6, and 25.2 standard fantasy points.

i fully expect julio to sit tomorrow as if losing hunt, conner and cam for the playoffs wasnt enough

Heh heh, member when everyone complained about Ben’s home/road splits? Brees too.

I’m really struggling with defenses right now. I have Indy going in one league. I almost feel like I need to run Indy in both of my leagues. But I have some other good options, so I’d like to reduce some variance. Other options are:

Den @oak
NE vs Bills
Mia vs Jags
Jags @ Mia
Atl @ car
Dal vs TB
Clev vs Cin

Who do we like the most? Or do we still like Indy the most?

I went with Miami in one, Indy in the other. Both are nice. Tough to say on starting Indy twice. I'd start Miami in the one you're a clear fave maybe. Indy where you may be a dog.

Yeah I looked up the Ben road stats last night and saw the same. Think I'm going to gamble Washington over Foster/Ridley. May be dumb, but after losing Gurley I need to take a chance on Juju playing, knowing Washington is a real talent and he'll get looks as my worst case.

lol don't traumatize me. That team I have Julio on also had OBJ and Kerryon. I can't take that sort of gutpunch.

I'd be downgrading to one of Ingram, Washington or Tim Patrick.

What's the deal with Oakland's secondary? They seem pretty legit. Butt sort of tight at the idea of starting Patrick.

I was deciding between a lot of the same and went NE. Hoping they're going to show up big at home with a potential bye on the line.

So my gurley Julio combo is gonna make winning 2nd easier to expect now

JuJu Smith-Schuster (questionable, groin) expects to play in Week 16 against the Saints.

Smith-Schuster had a mid-week downgrade and didn't practice Friday, but he's going to try to play at less than 100 percent. It's great news for the Steelers in a must-win game. We should get confirmation on JuJu's status early Sunday, but owners can count on having him this week.

lol the direct quote from JuJu:

“A lot on the line this week,” Smith-Schuster wrote. “The whole season comes down to this. Yes, I’m talking about the fantasy football championship round. Of course I’m playing Sunday!!! Theres no way I can let down the real ones who believed in me by drafting me!! Let’s get it!”

Was hoping he'd be a bit closer to 100%, but I guess on artificial turf his footing will be good.

Yeah, the problem is that both of my h2h championships are flips. Both matchups have the teams within 5 points of each other based on the projections. The 1/2 seeds made the ship in both spots. So I’m afraid it may come down to defense.

I just don’t like Miami’s defense, even with the matchup. They aren’t very good.

I like Denver versus Oakland, but Carr hasn’t thrown an int since week 5. So I’m banking on sacks, low scoring, and fumbles. Oak does fumble a lot, though.

I was leaning NE even before Eurotrash’s post. I like to think they can shut down Allen. Take away his running ability and force him in to mistakes. NE needs this game a lot, at home, with playoff seeding on the line.

Ick.

NE struggles against running QBs because their LBs are slow

Miami has definitely taken care of the offenses it was supposed to in fantasy. I can't speak for your scoring system, but the Jets (twice), Titans, Bills and Bengals all made for great games for that D. So now you run into Jax the dumpster fire, third best possible matchup by averages.

For me on one team it's Miami or Clev. I wonder about the Browns stacking the box on Mixon since that's about all they have left?

Are either Kelly or Anderson playable if Gurley sits? It's hard to see Anderson doing much except td vulturing, but I can see Kelly being a high upside guy even though he's not starting.

It's because they play mostly man so their backs are to the qb and he can see the lanes to take off into.

Starting the law firm of Williams, Williams, and Elliot tomorrow.

Will be playing from behind as villain has no one in the SNF game and I have the Chiefs QB/WR/RB

Anyone get cute and start CLE over CHI ? Man, if Da Bears were at home this would be soo juicy.

How do start any defense over the Bears??

**** you Josh Johnson!
Way to gift my opponent 8 more points on the last ****ing play of the day when the games already over. And that's after the horrible pick to end the previous drive!
