Staee losing!
Whoops, wrong fantasy...but now a reality!
September 9th, 2018 at 7:47 AM ^
Sammy Watkins.
Anderson = Rookie QB on the road on Monday Night.
September 9th, 2018 at 7:47 AM ^
Sammy! Better offense, better qb, shootout in LA. The volume will be there.
September 9th, 2018 at 8:46 AM ^
What’s everyone’s opinion on that Steelers game? Will the weather affect game? Are Ben and James Conner viable options this week even if I have decent players to replace them with?
September 9th, 2018 at 8:49 AM ^
Wondering about the same game. Can't decide if I should start Josh Gordon or not.
September 9th, 2018 at 8:58 AM ^
I would if he’s a top option for you. I honestly like Cleveland in this game. Maybe not to win, but at least to put up some points and keep it close.
September 9th, 2018 at 9:30 AM ^
I'm in the same boat. Torn between Jarvis Landry and Tyrell William's. I think they're going to score a ton of points in LA today.
September 9th, 2018 at 10:07 AM ^
Tough because Tyrell could be used more with Fuller locked up on Allen (Scandrick is much worse, and should line up against Tyrell a lot). But I still lean Landry, especially if PPR
September 9th, 2018 at 8:55 AM ^
A pissed off team that’s going to unleash hell on Cleveland. Start them both - i grew up in Cincy i know what a pissed of Steelers team is capable of lol.
September 9th, 2018 at 9:59 AM ^
Who are your other options?
September 9th, 2018 at 10:16 AM ^
I could start Trubisky over Ben and I need to pick two out of golden Tate, Larry Fitzgerald, and James Conner. Half pt ppr
September 9th, 2018 at 10:23 AM ^
Ben. I like Trubisky for upside this year, but need to see it first and I definitely prefer Ben this week.
I go Conner/Fitz on the other one. Tough to bench Tate but Fitz has an elite match up this week (v Fabian Moreau) and Conner will get good work. Detroit spreads the ball around more.
September 9th, 2018 at 10:32 AM ^
No concerns over the weather? I could see that helping Conner but they are calling for 20 mph plus wind in that game
September 9th, 2018 at 11:42 AM ^
It might lower overall point production, but I don’t think it will have a giant impact. If I could I might bet the under now.
It will rain and there will be some rain (under 1 inch), but 20 mph wind isn’t killer overall. If you normally fade Ben on the road due to the splits, it’s definitely another reason too. But v. Mitch I’m still starting him .
September 9th, 2018 at 10:08 AM ^
I’m wondering if perhaps I’m overthinking this, but I just picked up Dalton @ Colts to start over Big Ben.
September 9th, 2018 at 10:14 AM ^
Love that move. Great matchup.
September 9th, 2018 at 9:26 AM ^
Thoughts on josh Gordon? My WRs are weak since I focused on RB and QB but I currently have Doug Baldwin and juju smith schuster starting
September 9th, 2018 at 9:54 AM ^
That’s the right call (meaning benching Gordon for those 2 this week)
September 9th, 2018 at 10:00 AM ^
Sammy.
EDIT: Actually - I take that back. I’d go Robby. Sammy likely to see a lot of Casey Hayward today, which makes him an avoid for me. One big play could obviously pay off and with Mahomes arm and Sammy’s speed it’s certainly possible, but not one I’m gambling on if I have other options. I don’t love Robby but I think that’s the better option there.
September 9th, 2018 at 10:09 AM ^
Royce Freeman v Seattle
or
Derrick Henry @ Miami
September 9th, 2018 at 10:12 AM ^
Freeman.
September 9th, 2018 at 11:24 AM ^
Royce Freeman or Jordan Howard @Green Bay?
September 9th, 2018 at 11:39 AM ^
Howard.
September 9th, 2018 at 10:34 AM ^
Marshawn Lynch, Corey Davis, David Njoku, or Theo Riddick for FLEX?
September 9th, 2018 at 11:18 AM ^
In a vacuum I'd say Njoku, but given the matchups, Riddick looks preferable.
September 9th, 2018 at 12:43 PM ^
If PPR: Davis
if standard: Lynch
September 9th, 2018 at 11:58 AM ^
Need some advice today, folks, for my PPR league:
QB?
Deshaun Watson @ NE
Andrew Luck vs. Bengals
(I drafted Watson first, but damn -- Luck against the Bengals, in a dome, is tempting me...)
And FLEX? Pick ONE.
Jordan Wilkins (RB) vs. Bengals
Randall Cobb (WR) vs Bears
James White (RB) vs. Houston
Thanks!
September 9th, 2018 at 12:21 PM ^
Watson & White. Don't get too cute
September 9th, 2018 at 12:24 PM ^
Appreciate it. That's what I was leaning toward. That FLEX starter is just bothersome, because of RB-by-committee in both Indy and New England, but I'm thinking with Edelman out, White becomes a de facto receiver, too.
Thanks!
September 9th, 2018 at 12:49 PM ^
Watson for sure. Cobb or White would've been fine. No one knows exactly how much Burkhead will play, and I always like Cobb in prime time games.
September 9th, 2018 at 12:22 PM ^
Fantasy football is like dungeons and dragons for sports fans. It’s really neat!! Nothing cooler than starting out a conversation with “my fantasy team”
September 9th, 2018 at 12:41 PM ^
Cool.
September 9th, 2018 at 12:53 PM ^
It's not for everyone. I didn't play last year for the first time in a decade, and I wondered whether it would affect my interest. It did, and now that I'm back in a league again I actually am looking forward to the NFL season.
We Lions fans need something to follow intently.
September 9th, 2018 at 1:24 PM ^
Matt Wile punting and holding for Minnesota!
September 9th, 2018 at 1:49 PM ^
Robby Anderson. Lions defense might be worst in the league. Darnold 20-25,270, 3tds. Book it.
September 9th, 2018 at 2:19 PM ^
Locked to revisit Monday night around 10pm.
