Can't believe I'm saying this, but JStew is banged up. Might go with DWill.

Last ask ... is J. Rodgers worth starting over Moreno or Leshoure this week? Why or why not? I have him benched right now but a lot of people are high on him against that shitty Saints defense...

As shitty as Turner is, he gets the GL carries. Leshoure didn't play the OT against Houston so I think I'd lean Moreno.

I'm leaning Moreno RB2 and Leshoure flex now - but thinking I could plug in SJax, FJax, or Rodgers at Flex.

lol man that's tough. Sjax has 2tds all year. Fjax if healthy might be a good play against Jacksonville

Gailey said that Spiller will get more snaps/touches than Fred Jackson by about a 60-40/65-35 split this week.

Never bench Rice (I have him too, and I know what you mean...he's one of the unbenchable players, IMO).

But you can't bench Morris either right now.

With Austin (proj: 9.89 in my league) having a Questionable tag and playing in the late game on Sunday, do I roll the dice with him or do I go with one of the following?

Donny Avery (IND) - proj: 9.64
Kendall Wright (TEN) - proj: 8.75
Chris Givens (STL) - proj: 10.14

It's a PPR league, and it's a point per 8 receiving yards. What do you think?

I would roll the dice. Is a guy like Olgetree or one of the Wash/NYG receivers available in case Miles doesn't go?

PPR: Marcel Reece or Ryan Mathews. Looks like DMC will play but they said Reece will start and get the bulk of the carries.

I have Reece and Moreno. Supposed to be nasty in Oakland so I'm leaning towards Knowshon.

If it's nasty in Oakland, why wouldn't you play their RB if they're not going to be throwing?

CJ Spiller, Alfred Morris, Chris Johnson, Bryce Brown

Need to start 3 of those 4. Spiller will start for sure. After that....

I have Lynch, Leshoure, Reese and Wilson... I can start 2-3 of them, who do I play? Only reason I'm wanting to play Wilson is bc I'm done after tonight and my opponent has two playing Monday night and I would have 1 with Wilson...

Damn. I hope Austin comes to play. Givens is having a serviceable day in PPR leagues. 6 snags for 47 yards.

This is great. One of my teams is 4-8 and in next to last place (I care little about that team). The other is 6-6, but will make the playoffs (second most points in the league for the season). Both teams played the first place team in their respective leagues. Both those first place teams are 9-3.

I will be beating them both this week.

Round 1 of the playoffs for my league and I have to choose between my two TEs, both of which are solid.

Heath Miller or Kyle Rudolph? Miller faces San Diego, which hasn't been kind to TEs this year, but the Bears are no slouch either, and Rudolph has them to worry about with no Percy Harvin to keep the passing D's attention.

I'd go Rudolph because who the fuck else are they going to throw to?

(Percy on the IR just absolutely kills me. Kills me)

Need help!

TE (1):

Brandon Myers (tomorrow night against Denver..3rd most pts to TEs)
Brandon Pettigrew (@ GB, 6th fewest pts to TEs...I'm expecting them to be down though, so they'll be airing it out)

WR (1):

Jeremy Maclin (@ TB..most pts to WRs)
Kenny Britt (@ Indy..3rd most pts to WRs..been on a TD roll lately, but not many yards or catches)
Golden Tate (Arizona..11th fewest to WRs.18 pts 3 of last 4 weeks)

My ONLY hesitation is that the Chicago defense is going to be thinking the same thing.

Either TE I think will have a big week.

PPR, I'd consider Maclin, otherwise I'm biased towards Golden Tate.

Fred Jackson or Knowshon Moreno?
