Bliz Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Bliz- which do you consider more likely: Cousins to have more points than Romo sits to pee OR Romo sits to pee to have more points without going Murray or Dez having a big game? In your scenario, by the way, I'd be down 30 with 8 players to go since I'm already 15 in the hole. I definitely have guys that can have big games, but I think Cousins is the better play for me here. Higher upside certainly. I consider the most likely scenario to be that Romo sits to pee will have more points than Cousins, which is why I would start Romo sits to pee. How are you already 15 in the hole? You do one of those 2 week combined score for the championship deals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Alfred Morris or Zac Stacey? Stacey. Tough matchup but they'll continue to try showcase Cousins. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bay Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Stacey. Tough matchup but they'll continue to try showcase Cousins. Hail. That's my concern. It's criminal that as good as Alfred is and with such a tempting matchup I have to question starting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoodBits Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I got Deangelo Williams off waivers. Second guessing though... I have CJ Spiller on my bench. Both are risk/reward guys. Both have had bad games this year against the team they're playing this week. Strictly in terms of ranking Spiller has a bit better match up. Very torn on this one.

JamesMadisonSkins Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I can't settle on my line up this weekend in the championship. I currently have RB: Lesean Mccoy, Zac Stacy WR: D. Thomas, Andre Johnson W/R: Chris Johnson W/T: Alshon Jeffery Bench: Decker, Keenan Allen, Ryan Mathews, Stevan Ridley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chew Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Big decision here.... Drew Brees @ Carolina or Rivers @ Oakland You'd never bench Brees, but he's struggled some on the road this year, and Carolina has a tough defense Rivers has a great matchup, but I'm worried they'll open up a big lead early against an awful Raiders team and just hand it off to Ryan Matthews the rest of the game.

Old Bay Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I'd personally feel more comfortable playing Ryan Matthews over Chris Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesMadisonSkins Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I'd personally feel more comfortable playing Ryan Matthews over Chris Johnson. Chris Johnson has a huge matchup advantage (Jax). But agreed. Mathews could be a solid play too. As for the ^ situation ... tough call ... I'd roll with Rivers over Brees on the road against Carolina ... then again ... they say never bench your studs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bay Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Chris Johnson has a huge matchup advantage (Jax). But agreed. Mathews could be a solid play too. Yeah, I know. I'm going up against him this week so it has me nervous. He could blow up. But I think I'd just trust Matthews more overall. I think he's been more consistent. But Johnson probably has the bigger up side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas, Andre Johnson W/R: Chris Johnson W/T: Alshon Jeffery Bench: Decker, Keenan Allen, Ryan Mathews, Stevan Ridley Your WRs are outrageous. The idea that you could start 3 WRs and one of them isn't Keenan Allen, with the numbers he's been putting up the last 4 weeks, and that it would be a justifiable (though by no means easy) decision is just crazy. RBs...I think I'd be leaning McCoy and Matthews as the definite starters, and toss-up between Stacy and Johnson for the third spot. I wouldn't say Johnson has a huge matchup advantage over Matthews. They both have great matchups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodBits Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Ben Tate to IR- move quick for Dennis Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattFancy Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Really hope Jordan Cameron can play this week. I'm out of FAAB money and the only other TE I have is Ladarius Green who I picked up a few weeks ago incase Cameron went down. Well since I've picked up Green he has a whopping 0 points the last 2 weeks. Please don't screw me Jordan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Roll of the dice here this week. I think either team could win... Me: Brees, Garcon, Jeffery, Charles, Moreno, Graham, Rashad Jennings, Blair Walsh, Tennessee Him: Peyton, Riley Cooper, Megatron, Forte, Zach Stacy, Coby Fleener, Shady, Hauschka, KC I've got Mike Wallace, Bobby Rainey, Andre Brown, and Gio Bernard on the bench..so I might swap Jennings out if DMac is back this week for the Raiders..

IceDragon38 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Ben Tate to IR- move quick for Dennis Johnson. Yup, this is immediately what I did. I have a championship game in which my opponent has Marques Colston and Jimmy Graham, whereas I have Drew Brees. Unless he benches one of the two, I'm sticking with Brees simply because whatever he does, I will basically do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikered30 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Need a bit of help. Cousins vs Dallas or Rodgers vs Pit., assuming he plays. Harry Douglass or Roddy White VS. 49ers. Not ideal, but don't have anyone better except for Golden Tate vs Ari, which is hard for me to trust. Bump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceDragon38 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 ^^^^^ I doubt that Rodgers is even going to play, but if so I'd go Cousins, simply because of the rust factor. Roddy White. He's back to 100% and based on what I saw against the Skins he's Matt Ryan's #1 target. Douglas is only a #3 behind White and Gonzalez, and probably a #4 if Jacquizz Rodgers is in.

jaybrant Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Welp. I'm pretty sure I have my Championship lineup set. This is a 12 team/.5 PPR. I'm pretty pumped as this is my first championship. What makes this even sweeter is the game earlier in the season that I played against this guy. It was a close game all the way through but in the end I came out on top by a half a point.... then a stat correction... I lost by a half point lol. I was pretty heated at the time but now it's payback time. Would you guys change anything around? I actually thought about Cousins since Stafford's been struggling. He's one of the reasons that I'm here though and Cousins definitely isn't a sure thing. Gotta stick with what got me here. QB - Matt Stafford RB - LeSean McCoy RB - Le'Veon Bell WR - Dez Bryant WR - Josh Gordon TE - Dennis Pitta FLEX - Pierre Garcon DEF - Saints (Definitely the weak link.. but best available) K - Phil Dawson Bench: Jordan Cameron Jordy Nelson Shane Vereen Andre Ellington Michael Crabtree Kirk Cousins Ryan Fitzpatrick (picked him up when Tate went on IR.. basically for bench points in case of a tie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f_trizzy Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 If Welker is out again this week, is Andre Caldwell worth starting at a flex spot? Right now I have Harry Douglas and Dennis Pitta penciled in for my 2 Flex and if I had to bench one, I'd probably sit Douglas because he's done nothing the past 2 games and has a poor matchup on the road.

Chew Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 welp, I did it. It's done. I just benched Drew Brees @ Carolina for Rivers @ Oakland. Now I get to sit and think about it for 3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 welp, I did it. It's done. I just benched Drew Brees @ Carolina for Rivers @ Oakland. Now I get to sit and think about it for 3 days. That's the move I'd of made. Good luck man. May I remind you at this juncture I told you to not be the worry wort you was back on draft day and that you'd assembled a pretty good team. (I never had you in the final 2 mind, but ya' know .). SO made up for you after all your early season angst. Win it all brother. Win it all. And DON'T scratch my, uhmmm, the Championship Trophy. She's only on a years loan! Hail.

Agree with GHH. That's a move that I would have made as well. Brees seems to struggle away from home and Carolina's defense can be pretty nasty.

Skinz4Life12 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 You never bench your studs. Brees will light it up this weekend. No way I'm benching him in my championship game (I have him). Yes he struggled last week but still put up nice fantasy numbers What do you guys think about St. Louis defense? Should I start them over Baltimore?

IceDragon38 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 You simply don't sit Brees. Yes, he's on the road and in a tough matchup, but with Rivers, you run the risk of SD getting ahead by so much that they just run the ball to milk clock. Even on his worst day he's capable of at least 20. EDIT: Read question wrong let me do some research.... DOUBLE EDIT: Yes, this week I'd go with STL over BAL. Would you rather start a D against Mike Glennon or one against a pissed off Tom Brady? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
