    I'd go with the same line.

    Understand very well not stating NE players. I have a huge dillema in the next 2 hrs: Brady or Cutler.
    Normally this would not be a question. But 1st, I hate the idea of BRady vs Jets. And 2nd, my opponent had 3 players already played past Thur & he got only 17 points out of them, so I have a little safety margin.

    I'm probably gonna go with Brady after all. A way to look at it is that every time he does something worthwhile on the field he is helping a Jets fan win his fantasy matchup. Not that Brady would give a shit even if he knew...

    Honestly I think starting Cutler maybe a better idea, I realize it may sound a bit crazy but the Lions secondary is just so terrible and with the chance that the running attack maybe slowed down Cutler could be passing all game. Prior to last week the Lions secondary never even registered an INT.

    I can only play three of these guys so which one should I bench?

    Brandon Marshall vs. CAR
    Victor Cruz @ DAL
    Mike Wallace vs. WAS
    Demaryius Thomas vs. NO

    I'm torn between sitting Wallace or Thomas. What are your thoughts?

    I'd bench Cruz personally.

    Thomas is a must start due to the matchup. He is just about a must start most weeks now anyway.

    Benching Wallace seems to be the safest move.

    Romo. Giants secondary are questionable and Eli figure to throw for 2 TD minimum, so DAL will be throwing the rock more.
    Plus, Romo is a better QB then Rivers.

    I can start 2 out of these 5 guys:

    Rashad Jennings @GB
    Jeremy Kerley vs. MIA
    Brian Hartline @ NYJ
    Jordy Nelson vs JAC (Note Questionable w/ Hamstring injury)
    Jeremy Maclin vs. ATL

    Which one should I chose? I did start Kerley last week and won my matchup because of him.

    I would go with Kerley and Nelson (if he's out, start Maclin). Hartline will be on lockdown w/ Cro and Jennings would be a huge gamble.

    Only thing I worried about is that Nelson will play but the Hammy will kill his production, kind of like Keller.

    I am in trouble with Ray Rice on bye and Demarco Murray out. I need to start two:
    Hardesty
    Hunter
    Andre Brown
    I could pick up Tanner if Felix Jones doesn't go.

    I would go with Chris Johnson and Ryan Mathews. Both have favorable match ups.

    Bowe and Djax IMO

    It's hard t go against Darren McFadden in any week. He has the potential for a 20-30 point game every week no matter who the Raiders are playing. I don't know how safe starting Chris Johnson is either.

    Need some last minute help. Who should I start at my flex Bowe or Ballard?

    .5 PPR league

    Also starting Rashad Jennings, not that it matters much but it could factor in your decision.

    Thanks in advance.
