I could've used a Stafford game like this when I was still in playoff contention

 

Wellp, 7-7.

In order to make playoffs, I have to win next week against another 7-7 team AND out score the other 7-7 team that is 3 points behind me. Was really hoping tonight’s game would have given me a much, much larger cushion than 3 points…

 

I love seeing 3 of the 4 playoff teams putting up under 125 this week while I'm averaging over 140 points over the past 3 weeks

8-6 and never felt more bitter about FF

 

I do 2 leagues per year

Big $$ home league: 11-3, #1 seed and 1st round bye. Defending champ.

$$ league on here: 10-4, #3 seed

Pretty pretty good

 

Rolling into week 1 of playoffs with an injured Josh Allen, injured Terry McLaurin, injured Ekeler, and injured Swift!

Thankfully I’m only facing Herbert, Diggs, Kamara, and Jefferson this week.

Ugh.

 

I need 2 WRs and 2 RBs and then a flex between all the below. Also, Penny is on the wire...but I don't know I'd play him over my other RBs. Think last week was a fluke game.

This is the first time since probably week 2 or 3 where I've had this many options. For most of the season, my bench has been all injured/IR

WRs:
Chase
Waddle
Thielen
OBJ
Hopkins

RBs:
CEH
Carter
Sanders
Dillon
Sony (would only consider if Henderson is out)

 

Is it PPR?

 

No PPR

 

12-2 and clinched first place with one week left. Glad Stafford has played well the last few games. He was making me awfully nervous since I dropped Russell Wilson and have no backup.

 

OBJ / Hopkins, CEH / Dillon

 

Interesting...

I don't see how I can sit Chase. His Boom is too big. Same with Waddle at this point.

Hopkins and Thielen can be total busts, but also have potential for a ton of red zone targets.

Honestly wasn't even really considering OBJ.

For RBs, I think very highly of Carter, so if he's healthy I'm likely starting him for sure. CEH too, probably. Love Dillon, but he's only getting 50% of the snaps.

This is like, quite literally the first time all season I had multiple bench players to choose from, haha.

 

If Thielen is healthy I'd start him but I'm in PPR league. He's just too consistent for me to bench him but maybe that's just me

 

I just don't think he'll be playing honestly otherwise I'd start him lol

 

Thielen is dicey because I would normally never sit him, but with him being injured AND being a MNF game, he's a super risky start. If I knew he was 100% healthy and a for sure go, I'd start him with not hesitation.

 

Should I grab the Minny defense against @ CHI or stick with Titans against Pitt?

 

Or, thinknig otuside the box here....Las Vegas against a Cleveland offense that is completely depleted by covid?

 

Yeah, that Vegas D-line is gonna murder that Browns o-line and whatever they can put up at QB

 

man I’m still so mad I dropped Knox about a month ago in favor of keeping pitts, I get the falcons offense is cheeks for the most part, but he’s a high first round pick you figure he has to have somewhat better volume then he has had

 

And my opponent in the first round of course has Knox lol

 

Pitts was supposed to be the exception, but generally rookie TE's are absolute ass

 

I also figured he would get Ridley’s volume while Ridley is gone, that’s a big fat no lol

 

OH MY GOD. Waddle, OBJ, Hopkins and very possibly Thielen now all OUT.

 

My only for sure healthy (as of now) receiver right now is Chase. If Thielen plays, I'll start him at WR 2 but waiting for MNF scares me.

I picked up Kirk as an emergency option. Here are some WRs on the wire. Any worth picking up and starting over Thielen or Kirk?

DeVante Parker
AJ Green
Julio Jones
Valdes Scantling

 

Not that I actually expected Swift back, but ugh. Could have really used him.
