Week 12 2025 who should I start thread **OFFICIALLY UNOFFICIAL** (1 Viewer)

PPR Flex:

C.Watson v MIN
Monangai v PIT

Leaning Watson. He just looks like the Packers best WR and, even if they don't feed him he still makes plays. PIT is also stronger against the run than the pass and I'm already starting Swift.

PPR TE:
Schultz v BUF
Pitts @ NO

Schultz seems like the easy start IMO but, some see the loss of London as a great opportunity for Pitts. Cousins started week 7 at Miami with London out and Pitts saw 9 targets.
Monangai and Pitts!
 
I'll start. Need a defense this week.

ATL @ NO
SEA @ TEN
CLE @ LVR
LVR v CLE

Leaning Seattle. Strong D, great matchup, must win, rebound game.
That Shedeur sanders start is kinda juicy though. I might have to try that one especially if you get points for opponents score.
 
Standard Scorring + PPR

Question # 1
QB = Dart or Brisset

RB x2 = Henry, Judkins, Javonte Williams, Aaron Jones, Travis Etienne

TE = Warren or Kittle

Flex = any player from above not selected



Question # 2 (same scoring structure as above) The options SUCK.

Pick 2: Singletary, Warren (If active), Pollard, Spears

Thank You

Standard scoring non-PPR league:

Henderson vs CIN - we all know what he has done lately; we don’t know what the split will be with Stevenson; plus a great matchup

Marks vs BUF - Another juicy matchup and has taken over the backfield

Marks is probably the less risky pick, but the upside is with Henderson.

Daniel Jones vs KC - A tough defense but could be a shootout.
Jacoby Brissett vs JAC - regression coming after a record-setting game but has been on fantasy fire.

Thoughts?
 
Trade question. PPR league.

Who would you rather have ROS to take you through the playoffs?

* J. Williams -- Clear workhorse for Dallas, but has slowed down a bit. Really not catching passes as Dak is focused as he should towards CD and Pickens. Faces MN, LAC, @WASH during weeks 15-17.

or

* S. Barkley -- Having a disappointing year along with the entire PHI offense. Lane Johnson injury not so good and Barkley's metrics YOY look in decline. That said, the D is on the upswing and there really isn't an unfavorable matchup left. This would be a bet that the PHI O gets it together. Remaining Schedule: CHI, @LAC, LV, @WASH, @BUF.

Which?

I own one of these guys but may try and trade for the other.

Thanks
 
PPR league. Wondering if I have any alternatives to D. Schultz tonight who have locked down TEs. Think this game could be a slugfest too. Other options:

* J. Coker at SF -- TMac should get his and Legette banged up. SF was just roasted by the likes of M. Wilson and Brisset.

* G. Dortch vs JAX -- Went 6/61/1 last week alongside M. Wilson and T. McBride. Brissett is slinging it and the JAX secondary is a pass funnel. Demercado is out and Bam Knight still a little banged up.

* Hollywood Brown vs INDY -- THis is only if Worthy is out. Should be a high scorer.

* D. Hopkins vs NYJ -- Get right spot for BALT and Bateman is trending out. Not getting many targets but...well...this is a hail mary.

Stick with Schultz?

Also, I'm an underdog this week so willing to take chances.

Thanks

Looking at your other options the only one I might consider is Brown but only if Worthy is out,which you probably won't know by kickoff Thursday
So I'd stay with Sgt. Schultz

And it's not close
At all

Henderson
Easily

QB is a toss up
Slight edge to Jones I guess
 
Need to decide on a RB2 (I have Gibbs as my RB1). Scoring is a little TD-heavy with an emphasis towards RB's...

.25 PPC (a point for every four carries)
0.6 PPR
0.6 pts for every 10 yards (100 yards = 6 pts)
TD - 6 pts

Kamara vs ATL
Marks vs BUF
Tracy @ DET

Marks may have the upside, but he's been up and down. Feel like, if there were ever a week to start Kamara, this might be it, no?

EDIT: I also have Gainwell @ CHI. If Warren were to not play, would Gainwell be the choice here? Obviously, with Marks playing tomorrow night, it's likely I won't know the status of Sunday players at that time.
Tough spot with the Thursday game in play
I would say Gainwell if Warren is out but you probably won't know that by Thursday's kickoff
I think Marks would be more likely to find the end zone
so
Marks

It's a coin toss between Marks & Henderson IMO. The reality is neither team has a very good OL but, I give the advantage to Henderson because he has a QB that is far more likely to keep defenses from stacking boxes and the New England offense is #7 in scoring. I also think they win the game and, when it's close I defer to the team I think is more likely to win.

You can go either way but, for me

Henderson>Marks
===================================

Brissett has been a metronome at QB. His worst game was still 258 & 2. The Jags are a pass funnel defense and the Cardinals can't run plus, the Jags have been so uneven in both winning and losing games they shouldn't.

I like Jones but

Jacoby>Brissett
 
Flacco v Pats
Rudolph @ Bears (if Rodgers out obviously)
Mills V Bills (hey it rhymes)

Not feeling great about this as Herbert and Nix sit on the beach
There's chatter that Burrow may play Sunday
Rudolph is in play but Roger's status is uncertain
Of the three Mills is the only one you know is starting
so
Mills
 
.5 ppr

Swift vs Pit
D Adams vs TB
N Collins vs Buf
K Williams vs TB

Who do I sit? :kicksrock:

Thx
Probably Swift because, I question if he is getting pulled near the GL for Monangai and the Steelers are much better vs the run than pass.

I could also bench Nico because teams do not pass against the Bills despite them being a top 4 scoring offense. But, Davis Mills seems to only pass to Collins and Schultz so, he should see 10+ targets tonight. If it were full PPR it wouldn't be a question but, in half PPR it's close.

I start the Rams ATM. They're playing much too well.

Collins>Swift

Saquon>Javonte

Schedule is too good and, like you said that defense looks like it is going to provide a ton of opportunities for the offense.

Schultz is getting the kind of volume from Mills that is hard to pass up (26 targets in 11 quarters). In PPR, I think he is still a good start.

After him, probably Dortch for the reason you said. Teams don't run against the Jags and the Cardinals can't run regardless.

I am not betting on the IND/KC game being high scoring.

I don't seem much value in Coker or Hopkins.

Schultz>Dortch
 
Here's one:
PPR:
Need a final flex:

T.Pollard vs Sea

E.Wilson vs Minn(pending J.Jacobs status)

D.Mooney @ NO( no London)
 
Low-scoring league for QB's... 3 pts/TD pass, 6 pts/TD rush/rec, 1 pt/20 yds passing, 1 pt/10 yds rush/rec (no PPR).

Dak vs PHI
OR
Dart @ DET (if he plays)

Same league...
Iosivas vs NE
OR
Doubs vs MIN

I think with the rush yards and rush TD premium I would go with Dart in a, slightly better matchup. Game script should also be favorable.

Dart>Dak
========================

LOL. Flip a coin.

My impulse is to go with Doubs because, at least I know he has a primary role in the offense. But, the Bengals pass the ball almost more than anyone and the Pats are more of a pass funnel defense. I think it's a bit more risk but

Iosivas>Doubs
 
One more. Half PPR and typical scoring otherwise (6 pts/TD and 1 pt/10 yds rec). Pick 2 of 3....

Pittman @ KC
McMillan @ SF
DK @ CHI

McMillan has been hot lately and I expect CAR to have to continue to throw some to keep up. I would usually go with Pittman as well, but DK's matchup looks way better on paper.
 
Defense question:

* BALT vs NYJ -- Balt D improving but in no way dominant. T. Taylor starting. That may be an improvement. No G. Wilson so I'd think scoring could be tough to come by.

or

* LV vs CLE -- LV D is by no means a good D, but they're at home and facing a CLE offense starting S. Sanders. Could be a classic trap D selection...or a bonanza.

Which?

McMillan @ SF and it's not even close
 
Standard Scoring non-ppr league:

I need to start 2 of these players:

Chase Brown vs NE - Has done very well recently with limited touches; may be involved more this week with JC out of the lineup
Travis Etienne vs ARI - Assuming he plays; he gave way to an equal share to Tuten before he was dinged up; then carried the load to a 2-td performance. Has been fairly consistent this year but no one feels good about it; I've left him on my bench several times when he has scored meaningful points.
Olave vs ATL - Target and yardage have been there so he has a decent floor; It's only when he scores a TD that he is valuable in a non-ppr;

Thoughts?

Yeah, I need two. Was pretty much assuming McMillan would be #1... Debating between DK and Pittman for the second choice. Thanks.
