Jeff - thanks for the help this season. Playoffs start this week.

A couple of start/sit questions. Standard scoring except bonuses for long touchdowns.

(1) Need two WR out of Denario Alexander, Mike Williams, Josh Gordan, or Givens. Starting behind Marshall. -> Gordon barely over Williams.

(2) Need two RB out of Foster, Martin, and Charles. Leaning Foster and Martin, but both let me down last week. -> FBG has Martin RB1 and Foster RB4 this week with Charles RB10. I would be inclined to agree

(3) Team D - NE, Houston, or NJ against Jville? Could also pick up Buffalo v. SL. Rolled with the Texans and the Pats all season, but I expect some points scored next weekend. -> I might risk Buffalo given the weather (just checked) 50% change of rain and high of 38 degrees for the dome team

Thanks for the help.

Quick follow-up. Meyers goose egg last night put some pressure on me in the first round of my big money league. Start 3 WR; standard scoring except ppr after 5 catches, and bonus for long TD's. I'm starting Brandon Marshall. I need high upside among my next two WR spots. Who do you like among Danario, Givens, Gordon, and Tampa Mike?

I'm actually leanving Givens and Gordon at this point, but wonder if that's too much risk/reward. Danario has been great, but I'm nervous of SD, and Rivers, on the road against Pitt. Mike Williams really has only one good game out of the last several. Somewhat inconsistent.

Thoughts appreciated.

Thanks

Williams is only one dislike. other three are close. if amendola is out given could be very good again, but check buffalo weather

Thanks, Jeff. Moving on to the semis. Start/sit questions for this week.

(1) Foster or JCharles? Pairing with Martin. I like Foster's matchup, but his production has just been okay the last several weeks. I don't want to get cute, but Charles has played well. Thoughts? It's ppr after 5 receptions. Bonus for long TD's.

(2) Going with Danario and Marshall. Need one more among Gordon, Maclin, Lloyd, Antonio Brown, and Givens. Who do you like this week?

(3) Team D - Jets v. Tenn; NE v. SF; or Hou. v. Indy? Leaning Jets again.

Thanks for the help.

Hey Jeff,

Lots of questions heading into the Semi's...

Scoring:

1 pt per REC

1 pt per 10 rush/rec yards

1 pt per 20 Pass yards

1 pt per 30 return yards

6 pts for all TDs

-2 pts for fumbles and INTs

-2 additional points if it's a pick six

-0.5 pts per sack

I'm thinking of going with this lineup

QB: Big Ben (@ Dallas)

RB: Darren Sproles (vs TB), David Wilson (@ ATL)

WR: Brandon Marshall (vs GB), Pierre Garcon (@ Cle)

TE: Gresham (@ Phi)

K: Jason Hansen (@ Ari)

DEF: Detroit (@ Ari)

Bench:

QB: Schuab (vs Ind)

RB: Chris Johnson (vs NYJ), Darren McFadden (vs KC)

WR: Steve Johnson (vs SEA), Josh Gordon (vs Washington)

TE: Pettigrew (@ Ari)

Questions:

RB: CJ has been in a steady decline but the Jets have been giving up a lot of fantasy points to opposing RBs, and McFadden could be one bad cut away from sitting out the majority of the game but he gets the Chiefs at home and he hasn't had a breakout game yet all season. Darren Sproles does his best work when NO is losing, and it looks like the defense has mailed it in for the rest of the year so they should be playing from behind vs TB. And then there is David Wilson, if Bradshaw isn't going to play on Sunday, I think I have to start Wilson and maybe I have to start him even if Bradshaw plays. The problem is I can only start 2 of these guys.

Which 2 would you start?

WR: Marshall has been an absolute beast all year...except for one game...against GB. And that's who he faces this week. Although I don't think Woodson or Mathews is going to play, so that definitely changes the equation. Pierre Garcon has been a beast since he returned from his foot injury, he is probably going to draw Joe Haden, and if RG3 doesn't go is that enough to bench Garcon for Gordon or Stevie?

Which 2 would you start?

Thanks as always Jeff,

-Eric

 
Jeff,

First team standard scoring

Need Three: Morris,Charles,Murray,Moreno,Wilson.

Need Two....lost Bryant maybe so pick from: Avant,DHB,Wright,Cooper, Givens,Shorts,D.Moore(might be a sleeper on the wire)

PPR league:

Kapernik,Palmer, or Rivers this week

Figure starting Charles and Spiller but need one of these for flex: Sproles,L.moore,Givens,or Wilson

Gonzalez or Lewis.....will the falcons shut it down this week or next?

Browns or Bengals

Patriots or Dolphins

Thanks Jeff....big games this week

Thanks

Hey Jeff - thanks again for your help this season. A few more start/sit questions in another league. Standard scoring except .5ppr.

(1) Rolled with RGIII, but obviously concerned about the knee. My backup is Dalton, who starts Thursday. If I wait on Griffin and he doesn't start, I'll be hitting the waiver wire - likely Rivers. Should I start Dalton or wait to find out about RGIII? Love those Thursday games. :wall:

(2) Pick two among Charles, Rice, and Lynch. Leaning JC and Rice, but Lynch is tempting. Who do you like this week?

(3) Pick one among Gresham, Bennett, Myers, or Pitta? Leaning JGresham.

Thanks for the help.

Jeff,

PPR league, 10yds rec/rush= 1 pt and 25 ret yds= 1 pt 20 pass yds=1 pt all TDs = 6 pts

For WRs I need 2 of the following: D Alexander, Givens, Avant, Durham, Bryant (if he plays)or Fitzgerald.

TE Gresham or does Davis come alive in a good match up?

QB Matty Ice or Dalton?

Playing the top scoring team this season and if I win, I'm in the Championship game.

Thanks,

Shawn

Jeff,

Bennet or Myers this week?

Bench Sproles for Wilson in a ppr league

Play Wilson over Murray or Morris in a regular scoring league?

Thanks

Hey Jeff,

0.5 PPR, 1pt/10 yds receiving and rushing, 6 pts/TD.

Pick 3:

Marques Colston

Stevie Johnson

Kenny Britt

Cecil Shorts

Greg Jennings

Larry Fitzgerald

At this point, I'm thinking Colston, Shorts, and Britt.

At RB, I have:

Trent Richardson

Alfred Morris

Reggie Bush

Mikel Leshoure

I've been riding T-Rich and Morris, but are RGIII's injury concerns enough to bench Morris for someone else?

Thanks

Who would you start between A. Dalton and C. Kaepernick. I have been starting Dalton all year so don't really know if I want to switch for this one game. If it matters here is the rest of my starting lineup.

F. Gore, M. Lynch, A. Johnson, AJ Green, K. Britt, J. Witten, T. Gonzalez, J. Hanson, SF Def

PPR 1pt for RB's & WR's & 1.5 pts for TE's

4pts for passing TD's and 6 pts for rushing TD's

I started Dalton over Kaepernick last week and it cost me ... so I would likely go with Kaepernick, even with the tough matchup.

I expect Foster to continue to play, at least this week. And, the Bears would be my top fantasy defense vs Arizona this week
 
Jeff,

Need one of these

Myers,Bennet,Clark,Celek,Scheffler,Allen.Fasano

Murry or Moreno,Charles Which two you like best?

Kapernick over Palmer?

Thank you

Playing for the championship in two leagues, and this may be one of the last times I post for a while. I just wanted to say thanks for your help and God Bless you and your family.

Merry CHRISTMAS!

Roddy, Gonzo and Julio gave him a 56-0 lead, he has Brady, Chris Johnson, Wallace a kicker and D left.

I have

Rodgers

Martin

Sproles

Andre Johnson

Marshall

K

D

Do I bench Sproles (PR points, PPR) or even Martin for Greg Jennings, Moreno, Austin in hopes for a better chance at big day.

Down 56-0

 
Need 2 from murray, morris, green-ellis. 1 for 10 rushing or recieving yards ( not combined), 5 points for 20 rushes or each 5 recept plateau or 100 yards. I am almost certain that i am going with Morris, but I am caught between Murray playing from behind and Green- Ellis only playing into the 3rd quarter. I also have Dwyer, Wilson, and Ingram but i haven't even thought to put them in.
