Going with Henderson is banking on injury. I don't see much standalone value ATM, best case it turns into a Mostert/Edmonds situation where you never know which week they will be a big part of the game plan.
Yea, I keep picking the wrong ones each week. Last week Cooper and Olave were chilling on the bench.
yeah I was leaning Singletary. it's still hit/miss, but needed a sanity check. thx. other opinions welcome.
I would lean Olave too, with the caveat he's sue to bust a gigantic one. They're playing in London this week, which never bodes well for players.
And a chance Winston sits. Dalton is a big wild card.
Sorry I have to start 1 TE
Tough call at QB
1. Russ
2. Coin flip, but gun to my head I guess I say Wentz. Built-in negative game script
Bench your TEs, despite bonus. Kittle will likely be in to block more now that they lost the best OT in the league, and the Cardinals are a **** show (and I say this being heavily invested there).
Singletary & Ugh.
Pollard.
That’s a tough choice. I thought Russ finally looked like Russ on that last drive, and I feel like the Raiders aren’t that good against big physical receivers like Sutton.
That matchup against the Ravens is the sexiest (on paper) of any pass defense this week. The over is like 50, Vegas is expecting fireworks.
6/8?
Yeah, I think it's gotten to the point where we can't trust Russell Wilson until he actually does something. That time is surely coming but it's tough to blindly bank on ATM.
I could very well be off base with my take on the Dolphins this week but I just don't see how they could possibly be ready on a Thursday after that brutal, physically and emotionally exhausting game on Sunday.
I don't much like Russ this week but the Raiders are not particularly intimidating ATM and the Broncos have been close on some drives. He has great surrounding talent (on paper) so maybe this is the week.
Goff at QB2
Carr & Mariota have been within three points of each other every week (13, 10, 14 to 10, 13, 12) so I assume they are close to each other in most leagues.
Can't blame you for that. Tua's surrounded by offensive talent for sure.
Just seems they are both about as likely to put up an average game. Tua right now has a higher ceiling.
I am glad I don't have this decision to make
From your choices, I like Goff, Herbert and Sutton.
IDK, Olave has been playing very well. We do the "If X WR is out then the #1 DB moves to cover Y WR" v "More targets for WR Y if WR X is out" dance every season. I imagine it is a net neutral impact overall, sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't.
I lean Goff hove v Seattle even without Swift & possibly Amon Ra because San Francisco is going to be a very tough environment on Monday.
Yes, ultimately impossible to predict what the impact will be. In this case, what worries me the most is that an offense down so many weapons (Landry is iffy, too) could end up getting curb-stomped, which wouldn't be good for anyone.
Minnesota D isn't curb stomping anyone but it might be good for stat padding late.
I like Rodgers this week.
I want to say Tua.
JRob & Bateman. I don't like Pierce this week.
Awful matchup + London game has me leaning Herbert, but it's close. The upside for Cook is that MIn is a better offense than Chicago. That might help offset that difference.
Agree. I'm a Rams fan and have seen this "at SF" story too many times. And their D may be better now than last few years. I'm irrationally tempted to stick with Stafford only because my opponent has Kupp. :\
This shouldn't be a question but, it absolutely is.
I lean Brady over Tua but I am not as down on having a player in a London game as many people seem to be.
Yeah, this is a difficult one.
ETN & Woods
If injury weren’t a concern, it would be Tua for sure.
Brady>Tua>Cousins
