    Pick one QB
    Tom Brady at San Diego
    Romo at Chicago

    Pick Flex :
    Tim Wright(TE) at San Diego
    Malcom Floyd vs New England
    Jarvis Landry vs Baltimore

    Romo has the better matchup imo. I'd probably lean towards Brady though. You could get burned by benching either though.

    Your flex aren't great. Landry looks good and gets balls thrown to him, but he doesn't have a favorable matchup. Floyd is dependant on the deep ball. If he gets 1, you are good, if he doesn't, you get nothing. Tim Wright (I hate to sound like an online "fantasy expert") is pretty TD dependant. He doesn't get a lot of looks, but if he catches those TD's it makes up for it.

    That said, I'd probably start Landry, just because you know he will have the most opportunity to do something.

    Anything on the waiver wire? I'd look at Donte Moncrief (or whatever his name is) the guy for Indianapolis.

    Forget moncrief. He gets such a small amount of targets that the risk isn't worth JT.You're much better off starting Landry who is a significant part of Miami's offense vs a banged up Baltimore secondary. Rivers torched them last week.

    That's honestly a tough one. Romo was absolutely putrid last week on thanksgiving so I kind of lean towards him in a bounce back situation. Chicago can't stop a nose bleed either. A major factor in this decision should be the weather situation in Chicago for tomorrow nights game. Any rain or crazy wind would instantly sway me to Brady because it's so close.

    JAX has been the bounty for all QBs this season and Fitz is relatively decent when not touched. Plus I don't trust Cam

    I'd go with Romo specifically because he sucked that much last game. He is a good QB with good weapons around him. I don't see him fuck up x2 in a row.
    Plus, CHI got a little better over the past couple of weeks re run D so maybe Romo will pass more instead of dumbing it to Murrey

    Got a problem of my own...
    Ivory (8.2 ave) @Min (24th vs. run) -- but the team gave up? But Rex is bent over on running it? But no plans to win = no TDs to be had??
    or
    Bishop Sankey (4.8 ave) vs. NYG (26th against the run) --- but TEN sucks and Sankey doesn't get much carries? but NYG suck too??

    I would go with ivory. Rotoworld had a good report earlier in week about how bad Minnesota is at tackling. And we obviously know ivory is a monster. He also has the best shot at getting in the end zone IMO.

    Here's my question this week:

    Standard league, which one should I Flex?

    Dan Herron vs Houston
    Roddy White vs Pittsburgh

    I have Luck as my QB FWIW, and my RB/WR starters are a clear cut above these guys.

    Personally I'd go with White. Houston's run D is pretty good, while Pittsburgh has struggled to defend the pass. That game should be a shoutout. Just my opinion.

    I am starting Herron out of necessity but if I had White, I would probably go with him.

    Ok... I have a question I myself feel a little crazy to even consider :)

    I got AJ Green playing CLE, and I consider benching him. Haden seems to have Green's number, and Dalton been historically bad against Browns.
    My only other option is Jared Cook, STL's TE. They are playing AZ who are bad against TEs.

    So.... I'm planning to use TE as a flex while benching AJ fucking GREEN... Weird to even write it, but for some reason feels like the right move.
    Oh.... Cook is playing on Thur so please help soon :)

    Don't do it. Cook is hit or miss. AJ Green on the other hand is a star. Just my 2 cents.

    Yeah, but if this works out I'll look like a freaking genius playing with 2 TE set! :)

    In all seriousness, my primary TE is Jimmy Graham so you can look at it like this:
    TE: mediocre (Cook) in a favorable matchup
    Flex: top TE (JG) in a favorable matchup instead of top WR in an unfavorable matchup.

    IDK...

    Who are your other WR's that you would automatically play them over Green?
