Andrew Luck or Eli Manning?

Chris Ivory or Hakeem Nicks?

Luck and Ivory although I say Ivory just because I'd never want to have to play Nicks. He's done little and he's banged up. Ivory should at least get a bunch of touches.

Should've asked if it was a ppr league, Ivory never catches passes.

No PPR. Crazy wind in NJ supports your opinion too.

No PPR. Crazy wind in NJ supports your opinion too.

ESPN's Adam Schefter said he is hearing from sources that "it's not looking good" for Nicks (groin) against the Cowboys today.

Romo against Giants, or Keenum against Jags? I'm actually leaning towards Keenum.....

Giants D has been playing a lot better. Plus the wind is going to be a huge factor today so Keenum is not a bad play.

I agree. Jacksonville is really terrible.

Flex this week... Bobby Rainey, Percy Harvin, Torrey Smith, Roddy White, Tavon Austin... pick 2. Would probably go Rainey/Smith but don't like Rainey's matchup against Carolina.

Austin. He is coming in real strong. I like Rainey, but Carolina is the best front 7 in footbal

I benched Austin this week, just because I don't think he will have a big play 3 weeks in a row.

I would personally go Torrey Smith and Percy Harvin.

I'm in the semi's and seeking some advice:

I'm trying to decide between my final wr spot: either danny amendola or riley cooper. I already have desean Jackson playing in one of my other wr spots. Danny plays Miami and cooper plays minnsota. I'm leaning to danny because gronk just went out and should free up targets for amendola.

My flex spot: Between ben tate or danny woodhead. Im leaning toward tate because Thursday match ups just never seem to produce high level fantasy points and the colts run d is awful.

Thoughts?

If PPR league I would definitely start Woodhead over Tate. If not, I would still start Woodhead because he gets a lot of red zone targets. Plus every Texans RB seems to get hurt so there's a decent chance Tate doesn't even finish the game.

It's not a ppr league, and I hear you about woodhead, but tate has been the starting rb since foster has gone down and finished every game. It's tough cause usually woodhead scores a td every game but his touches have been going down with Matthews playing well.

I'd go with Amendola and Tate.

Just lost Gronk and am in the semi-finals. No idea this week if I should start Jordan Reed (was a beast flex for me for a couple weeks), Heath Miller (safe backup), Dennis Pitta or Jacob Tamme (if Welker is out he could be huge on Thurday.

Also, yes, I know its a spaz move to have 4 TEs on my roster lol

I'd go pitta out of all three. Jordan reed is in a dumpster fire situation with the skins, miller is not getting redzone targets and tamme will be working behind Julius Thomas. I'd rank it Pitta, MIller, Tamme, and Reed, but I aint no expert.

 

[woolybug25]

In PPR, Woodhead >>>>>>>Tate.

Not only is Woodhead one of the top 15 PPR RB, but he also has a great matchup. Tate plays for Houston... that's all you need to know.


As far as the TE question. Pitta looked really good last game. Flacco will continue to use him as he did last year. Pitta just hasn't been playing.

I'm leaning towards Pitta myself, but Tamme intrigues me. He played every snap in the slot after Welker got hurt, and there's like a 99% chance Welker doesn't play tomorrow night.

I'm in the semis and this league has a pretty decent payout, which is why i'm turning to you guys for help. I lost foster as my starting back, but I'm still in decent shape, esp since i didn't draft any of these backs. What 3 running backs would you start in a standard league

Andre Brown vs SEA
Le'Veon bell vs CIN
Shane Vereen @ MIA
Daniel Thomas vs NE
Toby Gerhart (if AP is out) vs PHI
Joique Bell (if Bush is out) vs BAL


The matchups are whats giving me such a hard time

Also would anyone start Brian Hartline over Torrey Smith... 35 targets vs 19 in the last 3 weeks

I would start joique bell and vereen hands down. The third I would choose between leveon bell and gerhart. I'd lean towards gerhart depending on his health over bell. I'd stay away from brown for sure versus seattle

Need some help picking 2 starting RBs.

Gore vs TB
Vereen vs MIA
S. Jackson vs. WAS
Stacy vs. NO

Leaning towards Vereen and Jackson, but Stacy has a higher projected point total against was I think is a pretty good Saints D. Thoughts?

I'd do Vereen and Stacy myself

One consistent thing with the Patriots is that they always struggle with the Dolphins for some reason. They also are the most inconsistent fantasy offense in all of football. There isn't one player on their offense that you can depend on. Look at their week-by-week stats for any player (including Brady). There isn't a consistent fantasy dude in the bunch and Miami is a bad matchup. For those reasons, and the fact that New Orleans isn't a very good rush defense, I go Gore and Stacy.

 

[IrishLax]

Kendall Wright or Riley Cooper? PPR....

I'd go Cooper. Real nice matchup indoors, and Wright may be getting a decent amount of Peterson.

Thumbs up.

Thumbs up.

I'm starting Zac Stacy over Andre Brown and CJ2K in a half point PPR. Agree?
