    No; it IS over; it ended when Colts couldn't beat the Jags....  good thing we don't play the Browns this year!  :hide:

    The Browns would at least win one game if we played them.

  2. Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott helped me gain in the top 50% of a 100 player league, so I won a small amount of money. I was near the bottom before Sunday night.  Denver's defense also scored 22 points for me.

     

    Julio Jones seems to do well the times I don't have him in the lineup; when I do have him, he scores very few points. I'm never sure whether to play him or not. I won't next week because I avoid Thursday night games in daily. I don't like my lineups to lock that far ahead.

    I am PERMANENTLY BENCHING allen robinson,  and PERMANENTLY PLAYING mike Wallace. 

     

    Allen robinson is absolute trash!  

     

    I bench latavius murray cause of his garbage play. And he puts up 22 in ppr. 

     

    I can't win at all.  I play good people they do trash, I bench players when they've been garbage and then they do great.  

     

     

    Jacksonville has been disappointing this season. I had Bortles and Robinson in leagues last season and did well with them, but not  this year.

     

    L Murray hasn't done much at all, so it figures that the game he's benched is when he puts up all those points.  It seems that the NFL doesn't cooperate with fantasy football.

     

    Then injuries happen, and that changes everything. I've lost more in ppr leagues than won, but still continue playing. I just keep trying, thinking each week is another chance.

    Mariota vs IND or Carr at Jax? I am leaning towards Mariota but one thing the Colts have been good at lately is forcing teams into FGs, so not sure if that will work against Mariota.

     

    In another league, Alex Smith vs NO or Carr at Jax?

     

    Thoughts??

     

     

     

    Mariota is a good option. The Colts have been forcing FGs, but also are bad against the run, and Mariota is a running QB.

    Smith or Carr is tough, but since KC is at home, I'd go with Smith. As a rule, west coast teams struggle more when they head east.

    Need to start one of:

     

    Jacquizz Rodgers @SF
    Julian Edelman @PIT

    Cameron Meredith @GB

     

    Any ideas?

     I don't know much about Jacquizz Rodgers. Pittsburgh is without Big Ben, so Edelman could be good. It depends on who Brady targets most, though. I'm never sure who Brady is throwing to.

    I would go with Meredith @ GB. He should get a lot of work and GB hasn't looked right lately.

  6. I have Prescott and Elliott in one of my tournaments. The advice from some analysts is to bench Elliott against Green Bay, but they've been wrong before. Elliott has been so productive that I want to use him. Green Bay's defense doesn't always deliver, and I'm hoping that Elliott has a big day. Will find out later if I made a mistake.

     

    I also have Sammy Coates, but looks like he might need to be replaced, as he's still listed as questionable and will be a game time decision. My lineups lock at 1:00, so have to decide soon. I really dislike 'game time decisions" in fantasy football.

  7. How many of you take the advice of fantasy football analysts like Michael Fabiano? I often check to see who he says to play each week, but he has been wrong in the past. Also, there are other analysts who have different ideas on players, and it can be confusing. For example, everyone got it wrong on the Broncos-Chargers TNF game.

    I read what they suggest, and sometimes follow their advice, and at times take a chance on a feeling I have about a certain game. I combine both, and it usually works out.

    Who should I play?

     

    WRs: Julio, Cobb, Cooks definite. Available: J Brown vs. NYJ

    RB: Gore, Riddick definite. Available: Forte vs. ARI, Powell vs. ARI, J White vs. CIN (have but not playing Deangelo)

    TE: Z Miller vs. Jax, Bennett vs. CIN

     

    I have two flex spots so I'm playing the three WRs I mentioned. Need help filling in the TE spot as well as the second flex spot.

    TE is a difficult one to choose, but I would with Miller. Not sure about who to use in the second flex spot.

    Ouch missed by one point sorry man.

     

    Look towards next week I need to choose one and can't decide

     

    Marvin Jones vs the rams

    Cooper vs chiefs

    Lacy(if healthy) vs the cowboys

    Lacy's injury doesn't appear to be serious, but the team isn't sure if he will play this week. It probably depends on how he feels. Difficult decision between Cooper and Jones; either one could work.

  10. The Vikings are on a bye: who will I use for defense in fantasy football? 

     

    Seriously, the Vikings-Eagles game should be  a good one. Bradford facing his former team against rookie Carson Wentz, who's lighting up the Eagles right now. An Eagle fan I know says that Bradford  wanted out of Philly, so no love lost there. Can't get much better than that.

  11. About Brady's suspension: he went to Italy with Gisele., so that's not really a punishment. Even if he wasn't paid for those games, it wouldn't matter to him as he has mucho money. It didn't matter in the long run, as the Patriots will continue to rule the AFC East.

  12. T. Y. Hilton got me 28 points, and helped me win. I always use Antonio Brown and Le"Veon Bell in my lineups, no matter the match up. They are my "go to" guys. 

     

    I almost used Brady, but decided elsewhere. I spent the money on other positions instead. it wasn't too bad, though, as Derek Carr got me 22 points. I keep hearing about  Zach Ertz, but he didn't do much, so most likely won't try him again.

    Why would you even consider dropping brown or bell?

     

    I wouldn't consider dropping them. Sometimes it's challenging to stay under the salary cap in my leagues since both players are expensive, so I have to use value players in other positions who i think will perform. But Brown and Bell are definitely. staying.  (Brown and Bell: sounds like a law firm.) :D

     

    BTW, I didn't think my former post showed, so i retyped it and it ended up showing twice. Didn't mean to do that.

  14. I started Julio Jones in my of my lineups, but rested Matt Ryan. Even though Atlanta won, Jones didn't contribute much: he only get me 3.5 points. I'm glad that I didn't start him in my other leagues. 

     

    BTW, T Y Hilton got me 28 points, WTG Hilton! I'm keeping Antonio Brown and LeVeon Bell each week, and as long as they keep being productive, there is no reason to drop them.

     On the other hand, T Y Hilton got me 28 points. WTG Hilton! Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell are two players I've used often, and am happy with that decision. Both continue to do well.
