Flex spot

Have Sammy Watkins (vs. Oakland), R. Jennings (vs. pit), T. Coleman(vs. kc), W. Snead(vs. det)

I'm leaning towards snead, because I don't trust jennings and watkins and coleman may still have some lingering rust/effects from injury.

I would agree with assessment. Bree's should be slinging it to everybody.

Anybody having trouble with draftkings? Contests aren't loading and I can't enter any.

Pick 2: (Standard non-ppr)
Todd Gurley @ NE
Jay Ajayi @ BAL
Latavius Murray vs BUF
Doug Martin @ SD

This is killing me, playoff spot depends on it!!

Is this the week that I finally bench Gurley?
Should I put the productive Ajayi on the Bench against the #1 rush D?

Wow, that's a tough one.

FWIW, this is the first week I benched Gurley, and I'm starting Spencer Ware, Theo Riddick and Thomas Rawls over him. I also have Rob Kelley and Dion Lewis on the bench with him.

ETA: id probably go Lat & Ajayi but I'm not confident in that. I haven't kept up with Martin this year although at a glance he seems to have the matchup this week out of your picks, so take that into account when weighing my two cents.

ETA2: wow, fucked that edit all up. This whole post, and my self quote are a reply to Click2Boom.

Thanks lol, I just stuck with the guys I've been riding; Gurley and Ajayi... coin flips. Kinda wish I put in latavius somehow...

Zero completed passes in the first quarter of the Bears/Niners game.

Niners, 19 rushes, 1 pass attempt...

Might have been a bad choice to go with Kaep this week.

Fuck I'm a dumb ass for dropping KC dst for philly. I was being way to cute. I should know better.

Someone just dropped the Chiefs DST right before the game. Gonna make a play on them for the playoffs Tuesday.

Titans only netted me 1 point last week against the beat up Bears with their 3rd string QB.
Dolphins are sitting at 1 point right now against the Ravens.

That 1 point D combined with Kaep's 2 points is making this ugly. Thankfully my opponent has Rodgers who isn't doing much better at 5 points right now. But I expect Rodgers will put up 20 points in the 4th quarters like an asshole.

Edit: Benched Kaep... 2 points.

Why is gillislee getting so many touches? I have him stashed in my 14 teamer.

I should make playoffs in arfcom league with a very mediocre team. Hopkins, Edelman, Ingram. You suck. Rnds 2-4 not startable.

Damn Kaepernick. Needed a qb this week to fill in for Mariota. And its a "win, and in" for me in the playoffs.

Fucker gets 2.somethingpoints and im basically screwed.

No but that's awesome hahaha.

I have Rawls starting in every league this week, been stashing him for a couple weeks.

He averaging something like 10.1 yards tonight.

uggghh.. I'm up 8.3 points right now, but my opponent is still active with J. Graham. Another TD or a few big catches (PPR), and I'm losing. I clinched a playoff spot, but the #1 guy lost, and if I win, we have the same record. He has the head-to-head win over me, but the seeding tie breaker is Points For, and I've got him by almost 200 points, so I'd get the first round bye.

Some come on Carolina!! Chew the clock to bits right now!!!!!

That, and with the Hawks up by 30, I'm hoping they keep the starters benched the rest of the game (no sense risking an injury....)

Coming into tonight 26 points down to my opponent, with only Luck to play. Plenty of shit talking about how I'm about to lose.

Luck is currently on almost 30 points. I'll be 13-0

I think they're hot and peaking. KC seems to give up points but they are a scoring fantasy defense/special teams. Double digits since week six except once. I'm really kicking myself for dropping them.

edt - just checked. The only team oakland gave double digits to DST was week 6. Which was KC. Start 'em and ride them to the championship.

Posted: 12/6/2016 1:01:34 PM EDT

Well, a 6 game winning streak and some monster points weeks put me in first place for that First Round Bye!

My first game will be against the #4/#5 winner. Bad thing is I'm 0-1 vs #4 (early season loss) and 1-1 vs #5.

Posted: 12/6/2016 1:07:35 PM EDT

Humble brag - made playoffs in all my leagues. 1st round bye in 2. Spending 31 bucks on Rawls in my 14 teamer was the best move I made of the year. Drafting Murray and picking up Jordan Howard in others a close 2nd. Those moves made those teams.

Start looking for that playoff DST. Make sure your RBs are handcuffed. You should have already done that but a friendly reminder.

I tried, but they were held by other players who wouldn't trade them to me. They aren't even in the playoffs either! Past the trade deadline, so unless they get released to waivers.....

Right now I'm carrying two QB's: Bortles and Smith. I picked up Smith last week to stream, dumping a 2nd D/ST (Giants). He was mediocre, but Bortles was worse. I also picked up T. Hill to give my beat-up WR core some help. He was OK, but not great.

Right now I have Baltimore for my D/ST. Looking at the balance of their season, I'm thinking they should be OK:
Wk 14: Round 1 bye for me, going up against NE. Not a factor, just hoping none of the starters get injured (Earl Thomas for Seattle as an example....)
Wk 15: Round 2, at home going up against PHI. Wentz is struggling with 8 interceptions to 3 touchdowns in his last 3 games. Potentially a very juicy matchup.....
Wk 16: Round 3, if I win in Round 2: @Pit (scored 15.5 points at home earlier this year against them.)

I have Jordan Reed too. Hoping he sits out this week to heal up his shoulder, then makes a monster comeback in Wk 15!

Hopkins is tough to trust, but indy D stinks
Crabtree will have a tough matchup and didn't do much last time they played. This is Cooper's game
I'd consider Mitchel over Hopkins and Reed over crabtree or Mitchel if he's out.

Only my thoughts, doesn't mean you have to follow it. It's all very close.
