    For three receiver spots, I have Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Percy Harvin, and Hakeem Nicks – who do I sit?

    Also, for three RB spots I have Chris Johnson (bleh), Roy Helu, Ryan Mathews, Felix Jones, and Shonn Greene.

    Hey, How’s it going?? Obviously every1 writing in to you this week is in their championship matchup and have a lot on the line. Need some advice on my RB2 and WR3 situation in a PPR League.

    PPR pick 1 out of the 3 RB’s,
    Felix Jones @home against Eagles
    Marshawn Lynch against 49er’s
    Darren Sproles against Falcons

    At 1st I was leaning in Felix’s direction, as I did last week, but this hamstring injury concerns he won’t get the rock as much. With Lynch going against the vaunted 49er D I think I am gonna go with Sproles, especially because the team I am taking on has Drew Brees. So Maybe Sproles gets 5-6 catches and 1 of those lead to a TD that would off set any TD Bree’s gets. What do you think???

    And as for me WR3 I gotta pick between 3 of the following
    Santonio Homes against Giants
    James Jones agaisnt Bears
    Jabar Gaffney against Vikings

    Like I did last week as well think I am going to go with Gaffney but Holmes has been on a TD streak but not too much else after that. You opinion is appreciated. Thanks for the help, Tim.

    • Watch that hammy with Jones. If he’s healthy enough, I’d go with Jones and Nicks. If not, swap in Robinson. I don’t like the Revis island play this week but you need to have NIcks in there unless you have slam dunk picks above him.

      If it’s PPR, I’d go with Spiller this week. If not, I’d go with Jackson.

      Moore is really intriguing this week, but he could break your heart if you start him. If you need a boom or bust play, start him over Spiller/VJax.

  13. Ryan says:

    A few holes/questions on championship week…

    1. With Ben now likely sitting, who should I play? Locker (if he plays), Orton, Flacco or Grossman? I really like locker if he starts, it would just kill me if he doesnt start again and I have to watch Hasselbeck stink up the show again

    2. Rb, pick 2- Ap, Cj2k, Ryan Matthews, Cj Spiller. I like AP and CJ, but Matthews has been consistently good as of late.

    3. WR, pick 1- hakeem nicks, nate washington, anquan boldin, or santana moss. This is up in the air

    • Chris says:

      If Locker starts play him. I don’t think he’ll start though (he’ll probably come in relief again), so you won’t have that option. Instead I would actually start Grossman (as scary as that is).

      CJ and Matthews

      Between Nicks and Moss. Personally, I would probably go Nicks, even with Revis (he’ll do what he can to make up for last week’s drop), but it’s tempting to gamble on Moss.

    • I’d start Flacco from that group. He’s very inconsistent but can post if he’s on. I don’t care for Locker vs. JAX, but if your gut is screaming at you to start him, I have no problem with it. Your other QBs are risky.

      I’d start AP and Mathews. Mathews has been too good to sit for CJ vs. a tough JAX D.

      I hate it, but I don’t want to sit Nicks during a championship game. Especially if I have to sleep nights. :)

    Hey guys…a few questions this week.
    In league one I managed to make the Big Game.
    Should I be worried about A.Rodgers? I have him, R.Fitzpatrick, and M.Flynn.
    Also, from the following group I need to start 3 RBs, 3 WRs, and 1 flex. C.Benson, F.Gore, L.Blount, K.Bell at RB and do to Jennings going down I’m thin at WR with R.White, H.Nicks, J.Gaffney, J.Simpson, and V.Brown.

    I’m thinking RB: Benson, Gore, and Blount. WR: White, Nicks, Gaffney Flex: Bell
    Thoughts?

    In league two I managed to make it to the Semi-finals with the superbowl in week 17.
    QB: pick one of P.Rivers, M.Sanchez, and A.Dalton
    RB: pick three of A.Peterson, R.Rice, R.Bush, and M.Tolbert
    WR: pick three of B.Marshall, H.Nicks, M.Wallace, S.Johnson, N.Washington, T.Young, D.Moore
    TE: pick one of A.Gates and J.Graham
    Plus one flex of any 3 postions

    I’m thinking:
    Rivers, Peterson, Rice, Bush, Marshall, Nicks, Wallace, Graham, and Johnson(flex)
    – that is if Big Ben plays. if he sits I think start Gates in place of Wallace….
    Thoughts?

    • Good luck this week.

      We’re in the big game in the Dynasty Experts League and we have the same problem with Rodgers. They need to win this week because SF is on their heels. YOu should be okay. And even if he sat for a half, a half of Rodgers is better than most. He won’t sit though unless it’s a blow out … which we want.

      For your first game, I would choose the same players. You’re good there.

      For game #2:

      QB: Rivers
      RB: Sit Tolbert
      WR: Marshall, Wallace, Johnson.
      TE: Gates

    2nd…I hate being stuck with Crabtree and Boldin as starting WR’s (through a combo of injuries to Andre Jonhson & Johnny Knox) – my only alternatives to either are WR David Nelson or starting a 2nd TE in Jared Cook.

    Are either Cook or Nelson worth a risk over (a now injured) Boldin or Crabs?

    • Well … around here we say that it’s up to the owner to make the final call and to NEVER blame advice you receive for a loss.

      If I’m the underdog in a big way … I’d start Vick. If it’s fairly even or I’m favored, I start Ryan.

      And what’s better than needing a few points and seeing your QB going in your championship game … if it is.

      Bowe and Blount. I don’t trust Jones’ hammy, seems worse than expected. He could go off but I hate seeing a player ride the bench during an important week.

      Jets D and hope for an emotional game with big plays on D.

    PPR Championship Game

    Who would you pick as my 3rd WR, Mike Wallace or Harvin and why?

    Both have similar matchups albeit over the last 4 weeks Wallace’s matchup is slightly more favorable. Harvin averages 9 targets a game in the past 4 weeks to Wallace’s 6.5. Min have to get the ball to Harvin if they are to win, and Batch will be starting more than likely for Big Ben.

    So I’m leaning towards Harvin, but Wallace seems to be coming into a better run of form at the right time and Harvin did nothing last week… so I’m torn…Who would you pick?

      Harvin for me. Look at what Harvin has been doing recently. He is clearly the playmaker in that offense and they are moving him around to get him touches. I won’t be surprised if he throws a TD this week.

      Wallace will have Batch under center and Wallace is relatively streaky as is. I want the player in there that an offense runs through and in MIN, it’s not Peterson right now.

      I’d start Harvin without any lost sleep. It’s still a choice that could bite you because both are talented, but I’d still roll with Harvin.

    .5 PPR
    Who should I start at RB2 and flex?
    Marshawn Lynch (SF)
    Kahlil Bell (GB)
    Pierre Thomas (ATL)
    Toby Gerhart (WAS)
    Ryan Grant (CHI)
    Donald Driver (CHI)

    I am leaning towards starting Lynch and Bell but wondering if I should put PT in there over Lynch with Ingram out.

    • DLF_Jeff says:

      Even with .5 PPR, Bell is a nice play this week. Barber is out so Bell will be the man. We’re expecting him to get 5-7 receptions alone.

      And I’d probably put in PT over Lynch for the reason you stated. With Ingram out PT should get a lot of touches. ATL is a good run D, but they will have their hands full.

      We’re sitting Lynch as well this week.

    • Tough QB play. There about even over the past six weeks. The Chargers have the better pass Defense, but not by much. Both QBs play at home.

      It’s a very tough call but I’d start Romo. All of his receivers are back and he’s going to have to throw it a ton.

      I’d sit Lynch and Spiller this week. I’d like to play Spiller over Bryant or VJax, but can’t this week. I just don’t trust him. Lynch is up against a tough run D and I don’t expect a lot out of him. I’m sitting him in every league.

    P. Harvin
    Dem. Thomas
    M. Lynch v. SFO
    C. Spiller v. DEN

    • Jackson is starting to sound iffy. I’d lean toward Harvin (for sure) and Thomas. If you really want to play VJax … play him for Thomas.

      If it’s PPR … stick with the three receivers. If not, I’d play Blount in the flex.

    PPR league, 100yrd bonuses. Should I start Antonio Brown sans Rothlisberger against the Rams or Vernon Davis against the 49ers?

    I feel they both are high upside, huge risk plays. Please help. Please be right. LOL

    In a td heavy scoring league do you go Vick or Romo? Philly defense is playing much better than Dallas but Dallas has better weapons.

    Also, Kevin Smith or Jonathon Stewart?

    Thanks

    V-Jax is riding my Flex spot. now that he is all dinged up should i just let him sit this week out. My only two options are both smiths. Torrey Smith BMORE and K.Smith Detroit should i slide one of those guys in for V-Jax even if he suits up. And if he doesnt which one do you like more?

    • In a flex spot I like guaranteed touches. VJax seems iffy and I’m downgrading him now. I’d start the guaranteed touches of Smith but he’s a high risk play. But in PPR he could score well this week.

  48. Matthew says:

    This is PPR with either 1rb/3wr or 2/2.

    Options:
    L.McCoy vs the Cowboys
    Chris Wells vs Bengels
    Pierre Thomas vs Falcons (just heard Ingram out)

    Miles Austin vs Eagles
    Dwayne Bowe vs Raiders
    Darius Heyward Bey vs KC
    Julio Jones vs Saints

    Also have Felix Jones but believe he won’t be a good play due to hammy issues.

    Thanks in advance, and have a Merry Christmas!

    • I’d go with McCoy and PT, along with Austin and Jones. Bowe and DHB just aren’t doing enoug hand while Wells is playable this week, I’d prefer to go with PT on Monday night. I agree with sitting Jones … he’s looking more doubtful by the minute.

      Merry Christmas to you as well

        Thanks man!

        Bowe has been a mystery for me all year. I was leaning on starting him due to Orton now hurling the rock. You’re not concerned with Sproles and Ivory watering down the workload for PT?
