I actually might in place of Rice (I know how that sounds). I still don't trust his touch count, and Bernard Pierce is starting to cut into his totes. Morris and Wilson (at least for this week) are THE guys to carry the rock on their respective teams.

Who to start in my Flex, not PPR:
Frank Gore vs NE, or
Knowson Moreno vs BAL
.. and why?

I'm leaning more towards Moreno, personally. Yahoo projects Moreno 12.34 and Gore 10.74. ESPN rankings have Gore #11 and Moreno #15, while Matthew Berry has Moreno 13 and Gore 18.

Non ppr I would go with gore. The weather will be cold with rain/snow. I don't see San Fran trying to throw much. Plus they will want to keep the pats offense off the field

Would anyone start Josh Gordon vs WSH over Eric Decker vs BAL OR Randall Cobb vs CHI? Non-ppr. I have Decker and Cobb in there now but Washington gives up a lot of points to WR...

Adding Dennis Pitta was a good choice.

Championship!

Pick 1 WR out of...

Steve Smith at home vs OAK
Reggie Wayne at KC
Danario Alexander at NYJ

Smith has been playing the best of the 3 the last 2 weeks AND has the Raiders which is one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL.

I am leaning to Smith.

Really tough between Wayne and Smith. I'd go Smitty though.

Smith has been way better the past few weeks, I would go him as well.

I might lean Morris and Forte; their teams have things to play for this weekend, while the Bucs don't. Bears have no offensive weapons outside of Forte and Marshall, so if they want to win they're going to be feeding them the ball a lot.

That's what I was thinking. I'm loaded at receiver (Andre Johnson, Marshall, Aj green.) Martin I feel is a hit or miss guy while Morris has been solid every week. And forte gets the receptions out of the back field

Need a TE to get me $600 this weekend.

On my roster...

Dallas Clark TB vs Rams
Brandon Pettigrew DET vs Falcons

can sign....Ben Watson(CLE vs Broncos), Dwayne Allen(IND vs Chiefs), Scott Chandler(BUF vs Miami).

I would go with Pettigrew but he has been hurting(ankle) and missed last week.

Chandler is probably your best bet out of those three, but he didn't practice yesterday so keep an eye on it.

I know the Jets are terrible, but what about Jeff Cumberland?

If he's playing, I agree. Didn't practice yesterday after being out last week so it's not looking great right now.

Cecil Shorts vs NE
Marshall vs Zona
Decker vs Cle
Steve Smith vs Oak
TY Hilton vs KC

RB:
Martin vs Stl
TRich vs Denver
Shonn Greene vs SD
Vic Ballard vs KC

Two of each?

I would go Dez and Marshall, TRich and Martin. No overthinking.

Thats what Ive been riding with all season. What about Flex? Could be anyone really, IMO. Smith has had a good past few weeks, as have Hilton, Shorts, and Decker. Ballard will be getting all of the Colts carries.

I'm a little wary of Decker because I think the Broncos will be able to abandon the pass mid-third quarter due to a big lead, and he did have a lull for a few weeks before coming back strong last week. I would go with Smith in the flex, he has been beastly over the past month and has a favorable matchup.

I'd go with Marshall and shorts. C3 has gone over 100 yards I believe the last 4-5 games.
