    Wallace has the steadiest floor. Robbie should see reliable volume. If you're favored, I'd go that route. If you're an underdog and need upside, go with Mitchell over Wallace.

    I had dropped Ginn two weeks ago and enunwa this week for defensive matchups. Wouldn't even consider them over The previous 4 guys I mentioned.

    Texans vs Jags. I use fftoolbox for weekly defensive rankings and they are normally pretty good. I just look at what team is highest ranked and that is available and I play them. Last week Atlanta was 10 I think and I played them.

    1) id go Mitchell just because we saw Brady torch the #1 D in Baltimore last week and he is also fairly familiar with facing this Denver D

    2) I would go with brate over Ertz simply bc I don't trust wentz vs Baltimore

    3) Murray vs San Diego. Who knows how healthy Carr's finger is. Murray is getting a lot of work as of late

    4) super flex? Gotta go with Bradford. I don't trust seman vs pats D. BB always owns young QBs

    I kind of rushing my response earlier. Here is a little more depth into my reasoning.

    Defense, I think it is a no brainer to go with Houston. New England just doesn't turn the ball over and Brady gets the ball out sub 2.5 seconds. So you won't get points off turnovers and you won't get points off sacks. Only real hope is a ST touchdown, but New England does play good STs. Bortles is a TO machine and if Houston does manage to get out early, I can see a lot of mistakes from Bortles as we all do know he is a turnover machine.

    1) Jeffrey is a no go for me. He might have mailed it in after that suspension, to risky for me. Also, Barkley has chemistry with the other guys since Jeffrey hasn't played in a month. You can make a strong, strong case for Robbie Anderson (I would choose Anderson over Marshall if you were going to pick one of those two). Him and Mitchell are a toss up (I am playing both in my league). Anderson has had so many shots downfield, one has to connect for a touchdown right?

    2) Ertz and Brate are neck and neck IMO. I just don't have any faith in Wentz on the road vs a pissed off Ravens defense. On the other hand, Wentz could be check down city and he could see 5-6 receptions and you have to wonder where Sean Lee is going on to be on that Dallas D. He might be spying Brate downfield or over the middle.

    3) Wouldn't play Farrow because we don't know how much of a platoon that will be. Carr's hand can still be an issue and if they were smart they would feed Murray. Murray was ripping KC up last week but they went away from him, not sure why. I don't like Hyde because I think they fall behind early in Atlanta.

    4) Same reasoning as before. Denver is best when they run the football and BB always always always owns young

    Yeah man, it really is. I missed out on the 2 seed, bye week, and a cash prize because I lost week 13 by swapping out Ladarious Green for Vance McDonald. I don't even care about the money in my league, I'm in a league of 13 other long time friends who have been at this for 10 years. It is all about bragging rights.

    I think Farrow will get a lot of catches, so that's why I want to play him. I'm starting to lean towards Murray though.

    So I dropped Boyd & picked up Lockett last night. Genius...and then I realized I didn't insert him into the starting lineup. 122yds, 1 TD & counting. Uggh

    AHHHHH........ still debating on Jay Ajayi or Jonathan Stewart.

    Part of me is saying, they just feed Jay the ball since the weather sucks, and Moore is playing.
    The common sense thing is that Bowles should have the Jets sell out on the run and see if Moore can beat them through the air.

    But Stewart hasnt exactly been lighting it up

    :confused:

    I had a first week bye in my playoffs. Thank God too, cause I only scored 59 points last week.

    This week? AJ Green still out. Randall Cobb dealing with a rough injury. James Starks lost playing time BEFORE he had a car accident Monday. Melvin Gordon got hurt last week and is out this week as a result.

    Picked up Taylor Gabriel from Atlanta (Julio isn't playing) and Kenneth Farrow (Melvin Gordon's backup).

    Luckily my opponent started Todd Gurley. 4.1 points this week.

    @Greenday4537 farrow and Gabriel should be suitable fill ins. Goodluck man.


    Had Robbie Anderson last night so not a bad way to start off the semifinals

    Another fill-in receiver got hurt early in his game and is "questionable". Going through concussion protocol.

    Luckily my opponents players are severely underscoring.

    Great week!

    Adam Thielen did jack shit (0 points)
    Kenneth Farrow was shut down and fumbled twice
    Travis Kelce ignored
    New Orleans shit the bed.

    So unless Mike Evans scores like 3 TDs, I'm boned. And it's the first quarter done with and he hasn't been thrown to once.
