I'm having a heck of a time picking Robinson vs. Mixon (see mine).Guillotine ppr playoffs. Playing for most points in last 3 weeks against 3 other top tier teams. Need to score around 150 plus so going for ceiling.

need to pick two:
mixon vs broncos which is a tough matchup and he didn’t score a td last game and averaging 3.2 ypg last two games… leaning towards sitting him but worried I’m being cute.
Conner vs Detroit - without injury I would have rolled with Conner no brainer. With injury not sure how much volume he gets with Edmonds back… still thinking him over mixon at this point due to probability of td.
Robinson vs Houston - I think he has most upside. If I can rely on new head coach saying he’s the guy and they feed him volume I don’t see how he doesn’t have a huge game against team that allowed penny a huge day.
Sanders & Wilson
Ertz
Davis
other than Sanders I think it’s 3 coin flips tbh

Gallup. You want to look at volume. Dak topped 39 passes in 4 straight games and this is a passing team now. Giants allowed multiple tds in 3 out of last 4 games is what dak averages in 3 out of 4 past meetings? Good matchup for the cowboy wrs. Roll with Gallup.Non-ppr.

did anyone ever answer this? I’m leaning with you with Robinson over mixon…. Mixon gets volume no matter what which is great. He can get multiple tds but it’s down to luck and down and distance situations when in red zone.Okay, full PPR:
For One RB and then Two of RB/WR/TE
Looking at Joe Mixon, Najee Harris, James Robinson, and Dalvin Cook for three spots.
I've got it narrowed down, I think, to Mixon and Robinson for the final spot. The only reason I don't go Mixon is because Robinson is facing a dream match-up with Houston while Mixon gets a rougher Denver assignment.
Harris has the most difficult assignment of all, but he's a true workhorse, so I'm leaning him.
Also, Cook is Monday night. I'm pausing because of COVID and whether it will affect him. Should I just play the three playing Sunday morning and afternoon?
It seems like a no-brainer, but when you add in all the factors, it becomes a little trickier.
What say you all?
For WR:
Looking at Aiyuk, Cooks, Mooney, and DeVante Parker for the final spot.
Leaning Cooks right now.
Could also start any of these guys over any of the RBs, too. Only need to start one RB.
Hoo boy.
eta* It's now Robinson in the final spot. And I've got Cooks in at WR. Cook no longer worries me about Monday and injury. He's locked in. Harris vs. Mixon is now my debate.
No, they didn't, so thank you, tigerz. Yeah, I've got Robinson in over Mixon right now. I just like the matchup a whole lot better.did anyone ever answer this? I’m leaning with you with Robinson over mixon…. Mixon gets volume no matter what which is great. He can get multiple tds but it’s down to luck and down and distance situations when in red zone.
if you believe Robinson has starter talent which I do, and that he gets volume, which I am starting to believe, then you have to go with matchup right?
I don't put too much stock into who my opponent is starting. I am sure there is an analysis somewhere out there possibly somewhere accessible in the FBGs labyrinthian menu system, probably somewhere behind the Ark of the Covenant. However I have not read anything to convince me that it should move the needle in one direction or the other.Note that my opponent has Rodgers
Gabe Davis v CAR or Allan Lazard?
Javonta Williams v CIN or AJ Dillon?
Ravens are pass D liability....was leaning AJ and Lazard but am I wise to do that given I'm playing Rodgers?
Williams has a slight knee issue, possibly aggravates and rests while Gordon takes the load or Gabriel Davis is part of a 2nd half coast while up 30.....
Much appreciated
If you need upside - Robinson. If you're favored - Mixon.rockaction said:No, they didn't, so thank you, tigerz. Yeah, I've got Robinson in over Mixon right now. I just like the matchup a whole lot better.
Thanks, jabarony. I'm about even because Mahomes dropped forty on my team on Thursday, and the projections now have me about even, or a little ahead. So...still not sure.If you need upside - Robinson. If you're favored - Mixon.
appreciate the response. My gut is Lazard and Williams....the CEH and Stevenson start for me has me second guessing....thanksChaka said:I don't put too much stock into who my opponent is starting.

I do however put some weight into the opposing NFL teams my players are facing and Lazard v Davis couldn't have more different opponents.
Davis is facing the #1 passing defense and Lazard is facing the #31 passing defense. Is that enough to move the needle to Lazard? I think...maybe? Lazard is getting about 0.5 targets more per game since week 9, but E.Sanders is out so...? They both have two TDs but Lazard has done it in two fewer games played.
The question is does E.Sanders being out outweigh facing the #31 pass defense? And how does Tyler Huntley starting in Baltimore impact anything? I have no earthly idea.
Sorry, I tried to work towards something solid but there is no way to distinguish these two with any clarity. 100% gut call. Mine just said
Davis>Lazard what does yours say?
I like Javonte in this situation simply because of the matchup. That Baltimore run defense is good and, while they both have almost identical opportunities since week 9, Javonte has been slightly more productive with his. Home matchup against a lesser run d.
Javonte>Dillon
Mixon>>Robinson I get it, I get it, I get it. New HC, unleash Robinson, terrible opponent. You want to roll with it, then roll with it, it's not a bad call.rockaction said:Okay, full PPR:

Thanks, Chaka. Great reasoning and thoughts as always. Mixon is a crazy workhorse, and IMO, is a better back than Robinson. It's all match-up. Looks like I make my decision at 9:55 AM West Coast Time.Mixon>>Robinson I get it, I get it, I get it. New HC, unleash Robinson, terrible opponent. You want to roll with it, then roll with it, it's not a bad call.
But I am shocked that I have had to sell at least three people on Mixon who has 21+ opportunities/game, 1,200+ yards and 14 TDs. He is the very definition of a workhorse RB, one of the very few in the league. Everyone thinks that Burrow & the passing game lead the way in Cincinnati but I'm here to tell you Mixon is what makes that offense tick.
Dalvin>Mixon>Najeh>Robinson
For WR IMO
Parker>Mooney>Aiyuk>Cooks
Cooks gets volume and may have the safest floor but I think all those other guys have reasonable floors too and much better ceilings. But the margin separating them is very thin, nothing wrong with Cooks.
I like Aaron Jones over Dillon. I think the Packers favor him in a similar way to the Broncos favoring Gordon. The split is different lately but I think Jones is a bit more useful in the passing game and my feeling is the Pack likes to get him TDs.Loipz said:Stevenson scoring 4.5 in 0.5 PPR has shook me.

Thanks in advanced and good luck everyone.
I would play Najee over either.Thanks, jabarony. I'm about even because Mahomes dropped forty on my team on Thursday, and the projections now have me about even, or a little ahead. So...still not sure.
Would you sit Najee for one of those two?
Brown has Tyler Huntley throwing the ball, I am not sure that's good or bad but it is far less known than Murray & Stafford. Brown got 8 targets last week, 7 from Huntley so he's definitely part of the game plan but can Huntley exploit Brown's talent? 4-30-0 on seven targets from Huntley suggests maybe not.The Show said:Need 1 from these 3.

M Brown vs GB
AJ Green vs DET
OBJ vs SEA
My logic tells me Hollywood will be playing in the best Gamescript all game to pile up targets and catches. I think Green and OBJ have the better chance to score however.
Any other thoughts here that might help?
I like AJG this week, and I see a lot if people are sitting DJ this week (I’m starting him but I could see it, Bills are the stingiest v WRs FFpts this year.) Probably Green & OBJStruggling at flex

It's week 15 guy, everyone has a real dilemma.Hot Sauce Guy said:Real dilemma this week in PPR.
D.J. Moore strained his hammy last weekend. It looked legit. He pulled up gimpy, came back out, gimped around a lot and made like 1 more catch but was largely a decoy on the perimeter. He’d run 2 steps & stop while the ball went somewhere else.
His QBs are nothing short of brutal, and he’s facing the #1 pass defense of what should be a hungry Bills team on.a 30 degree day. Cold weather & bad hammies go together like peanut butter & pizza.
My other option is Gabriel Davis, who should get a larger workload with Sanders out. CAR’s pass defense is also near the top of the league statistically, but they feel like a bit of a paper Tiger.
As of right now I have Higgins, Davis, Aman-Ra at WR & Mooney at O-Flex. ARob out with COVID & Minny was 29th against the pass before cutting one of their starting CBs yesterday so I feel like he has to be in my lineup.
Due to a mid-week scoring change, I am now in a “win today or go home” situation.
I’m also the current points leader by 32, which is good for 10% of the rather sizable kitty, so points are important for me. I’d rather get some than none if DJM has an in-game setback.
Am I nuts to bench DJM for Davis?
/novel
Edmonds is a solid play in PPR, not so much in standard scoring formats IMO. He should be in line for multiple receptions and definitely could break one off against this Lions team.The Dude said:Any insight into how Edmonds and Connor plays out today? Edmonds practiced most the week and appears ready to go while Connor questionable but practiced I think one day.
Thoughts on starting Edmonds?
Huntley>LawrenceDacomish said:Given that L-Jax is most likely going to be out, I have to decide between:
T.Huntley or T. Lawrence
Huntley was serviceable last few times he got extended play and Lawrence has just been awful, maybe the HC change could re-invigorate Lawrence, but its still Bevel calling the plays, so I'm not so sure.
I'm leaning Huntley (And if L-Jax is active I will go with him).
Tough call indeed.Krilons Resa said:I'm having trouble deciding who to start at RB in PPR. Got hosed by starting Stevenson last ngiht.

Woops I worded it poorly. It’s 2 different leagues.rockaction said:Can't really tell what you're asking besides the Dillon question. What are the other four guys? How many do you need out of them?
I think Dillon and Jones is a coin flip. I'll say this: I'd go with Jones if I had skin in the game.
And now you've posted three different times!Woops I worded it poorly. It’s 2 different leagues.

DJ>Jones>McLaurinTed Lange as your Bartender said:Start one non-PPR:
DJ Moore at BUF

don't love any of them but have to start one. Not totally sure McLaurin has cleared protocols so I think he’s out of the mix. I’m a little intrigued by the possible post-Urban bump in Jacksonville, but it feels more like hope than anything.

I wouldn't. I bench Conner only if he's out. We have been waiting for the wheels to fall off for 14 weeks. Eventually we will be right but only under the Broken Clock principle.The Captain said:Would you start Edmonds over Conner? Non-PPR

No, but facing Buffalo D in he cold weather with an injury that I watched him sustain - he looked pretty gimpy out there.Personally I think not. Davis could very well get a score (he has two in the last two games) and outproduce DJ but I don't think that possibility, or outcome, would make it the best decision.
