For this week, Tannehill. Brissett is a good play most weeks, though. |
Would you play Winston over tannehill? |

Tannehill is a risk, but so is Winston. I would probably lean Winston because he has the better resume and better weapons.
That said either guy could blow up or crash and burn. TEN is better pass defense, TB is weak against the pass. However, TB also pressures QBs and Tannehill was historically poor when pressured.
For decisions like this, I tend to look at it and pretend I pick each guy and then assume the guy I picked sucked. Then try to imagine which decision would haunt me more. Haha. If I were to fade the QB with the WR1 in fantasy I think I’d be a little more mad about it over Tannehill. |

makes sense. Thanks. I'm starting Tannehill in one league and Winston in another and Tannehill was available in that one too... Good luck this week! |

I probably would go Winston over Tannehill but Tannehill's matchup is really great.
I'm so screwed in my 2-QB league. You're not allowed to own more than 3 QB's, and one of mine is Mahomes. So I have to play my other two, and I also have Wentz and Minshew. The weather in Buffalo for Wentz is going to be disastrous, but I have no choice but to play him, unless I want to waive him, and I can't do that. Just gonna have to grin and bear it this week. |

Ugh. I had Josh Allen all fired up and ready to go. My backup is Winston.
Might have to play Winston now after hearing about 25 mph winds in Buffalo. |

With the playoffs in sight, how is everyone doing?
Out of the 4 leagues I am in, looks like I'll make the playoffs in 2 of them. In one of them I'm undefeated still.
Anyways, question I had, would you start Deebo Samuel vs Green Bay or Carlos Hyde vs Colts? It's carlos hyde and I would be hoping for him to find the endzone against this stingy colts D but I did read somewhere that Thursday games favor running backs. I'm expected Sanders to return for niners which should still keep Deebo involved. But if Kittle returns, that will probably hurt Deebo. What do you guys think? |

Well if anyone can throw a football through 25 mph winds, it's probably Josh Allen |

Late reply here but if it's PPR I'd probably stick with Samuel. If standard, Hyde. |

Guys I need some advice on who to start this week, it's final regular season week in our league and if I win I can be number 1 seed for playoffs.
RB - Derrick Henry, Mark Ingram, Philip Lindsay or Melvin Gordon (need 2)
I played Zeke already and he did well.
WR - Calvin Ridley, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, DJ Chark (need 2)
I have the choice of QBs between Russ and Lamar, but will probs start Lamar, and then have a choice of Kelce or Mark Andrews, this has been tough lately too.

Henry and Gordon at RB. Jaguars are swiss-cheese vs. RB's. Ingram is in a good spot too (as always), but he'd be third on that list for me. Lindsay a clear 4th, though his matchup is decent too (but it's still a rookie QB making his first career road start).
Ridley has to sit now that Julio and Hooper are both back. You can't play both Charger WR's so Chark has to be in, even in a tough matchup against Casey Hayward (though Sutton just scored 2 TD's last week). So it's between Allen and Williams. I think you have to go with Allen there, although Williams still hasn't scored a TD this year and is probably due. Still, I'd say Allen.
Definitely Lamar at QB. And Kelce at TE. |

Yeah, not a good week to miss the game, the fantasy semifinals in most leagues. In a league where I am in the playoffs but they don't start until week 15 (4 teams get into the dance in an 8-team league and I'm already in), I picked up Powell as soon as I saw the news, and now I have to decide if I'm going to start Powell or Hunt in the flex. It's half-PPR, and I also have Chubb starting. |

My god I have been waiting on Mike Wiliams all season. How do you go from 10 TDs to zero. Melvin Gordon in reverse lol |

got a tough one today
who do i start?
Alshon v NYG or Ridley vs Car? I'm leaning Alshon with Julio and Hooper back. Now I'm hearing there's possibly heavy rain forecasted for Monday night.
Josh jacobs is a true game time decision. Idk how I feel about that. I would hate to start him and have him play in a limited capacity. My other option is Bilal Powell. Start Jacobs vs Ten or roll the dice with Powell vs Mia? |

Me the 8th seed is about to knock out the 1st seed. I need 13 points from Wentz and Jake Elliott.
In another league I need 57 points between Wentz, Alshon & Eagle D. Slim chance I know. Lol im gonna be pissed if benching Ridley is what causes me to lose. Then I'd only need 40 from Wentz and Eagles D. seems much more manageable. |

| I need 14 points from the Eagles D tonight or I will lose a heartbreaker in a league. I had both Ryan Griffin and Rashaad Penny get injured; if they both just play their normal allotment of snaps, I probably would already be ahead. It's going to suck if I lose. The Eagles average a 10 in this league, so I may need a defensive TD, a lot of sacks, and/or the Giants to score less than 13 points. I'm in it but the way this week has gone for me in that league, I'm not counting on anything. I had Russell Wilson put up a 0 TD game as well. Should have started Tannehill, as I did in another league over Matt Ryan. |

If it makes you feel any better, I'm not sure if you remember the game Philly played in Buffalo a few weeks ago, which was basically played in a wind tunnel. Wentz was able to get 1 TD pass and put up like 16 points. |

I was up 20 going into this game. Aaron Jones and Allen Robinson on my bench when Julio Jones, Chubb and Fournette played terribly ..again.
I have (had) Alshon Jeffery. Opponent has Tate and Saquon.
Alshon out with an injury and ZERO points.
10 minutes left in the game. I'm only up 9 points.
Guaranteed I lose this in the last minute.

| Lost both of my quarterfinals, despite being at over a 90% win probability in both heading to the Sunday night game. Have two semifinals still coming up this week, though, including the LG League. |
