I Got Roethlisberger , Ryan and Luck Who should I start
I’d go Ryan
thanks anthony
Steven jackson,lacey,Morris,bell,starks need two,thanks
Jackson and whoever starts for the Packers
RB2 and Flex. I have G. Bernard, Chris Johnson, Andre Brown, Donald Brown and M. Crabtree for these 2 positions in a standard league. I don’t like Johnson and A. Brown’s matchups. What would you suggest? Thanks.
I’d go Gio and Andre Brown. I’m not as scared of that Seahawks matchup. They are not as good on the road against the run, and that’s about all NY does well on offense.
I have a RB2 and Flex quandry. I have 6 RBs to choose from, and it doesn’t look like weather should be a problem based on forecast. Rainey v SF, Rice v DET, Ellington @TEN, Ridley @MIA, Gerhart v PHI, D. Thomas v NE. Which 2 would you run with? Thanks.
Yikes, all guys have their warts. If AP doesn’t play I’d go Gerhart and Ellington. If AP does play and/or Gerhart doesn’t, I’d go Rainey and Ellington.
Anthony,
Who is the better start Giovani Bernard or Andre Brown? Standard scoring, plus one point for every 10 yards.
Thanks
Another risk/reward play. If you’re looking for the home run, Bernard’s your guy. But Brown will get a handful more touches, so has a higher floor.
PPR league I need two out of these three. Ace Sanunders, CJ Spiller or Andre Ellington.
ESPN standard scoring
RB Zac Stacy, Donald Brown, Jordan Todman, Chris Ogbonnaya and Bobby Rainey start two.
WR Pierre Garcon, TY Hilton or Rod Streater start one
Thank you
I need 2 rbs…Fred jackson, reggie bush, leveon bell, or pierre thomas.
Alex smith or jay cutler.
Also 2 wrs, patterson, colston, or Jeffery.
Thank you!
60/40 no ppr leagues: Hilton or Cameron (playing against Luck-should that make a difference)…V. Davis or Torrey Smith (playing Kaepernick-should that make a difference?) thanks
Dan, go Sanders and Spiller, though would play Ellington over Spiller if you want to be conservative because Spiller has lower floor.
Michael, Todman and Stacy, Garcon at WR
Rogo: Hilton, Smith.
Anthony, in the finals. PPR scoring/ I have as RB’s CJ, Andre Ellington and Pierre Thomas. My wide outs are Danirous Thomas, Colston and Ace Saunders. I did not start Spiller last week and Ace scored for me. Pleasant surprise. Do I sit Ace put Spiller in Flex? Or sit Ellington and put Spiller in because of the Seahawks matchup? Thanks
I think you’re best off sitting Sanders based on his matchup with Tennessee. While he’s managed to produce the last month or so, it’s taken a TD in a one-catch game and a passing TD to do it. I don’t love Ellington this week, but I think he’s got more big-play potential. So rolling with him and Ellington is the way to go.
