I'm starting MIA.

I'm in a similar boat, but don't have either Nix (who would be my choice for you) or Young. I sat Mahomes before I knew that Richardson was hurt, and now - after enduring two mediocre performances from JSN and Charbonnet - have to decide if I can take a chance on Richardson @ NYG, or do I go another direction. Choices include Rodgers (possibly w/out Adams) vs BUF, or Mason Rudolph @ JAX. God help me, I'm leaning Rudolph The Red Nosed Titan. I am starting Ogonkwo @ TE, instead of either Kraft or Ertz, and may try the double dip here.

Green Bay looking impressive.

FU Drake Maye, I started you instead of Mahomosectional because I KNEW he wouldn't produce again, but you're doing NOTHING so far! Get yer azz in the game!

I have Kraft in there @SEA, but Kraft's #s take a massive hit when Romeo Doubs plays. Pitts is not going to have a softer D to play against than this upcoming Sunday, but we all know the Pittsfalls (groan). Ertz has been relatively solid, and I am playing against his QB Jaylen; winner gets in the money. Last time Pitts blew up, he had been doing nothing, like he has been now. I'm tempting to take the flyer; I can see another big day for him out of the blue. Whatchew guys say?

Well, a bit of an interesting development since: opponent had two players underperform on TNF (Deebo and Jauan), and now I'm favored, and am thinking that some hedging may be strategic: he's playing Jayden Daniels, and if he doesn't have a big game, then I should win this week. So - to hedge - I'm now leaning Ertz to offset any Daniels blowup game. WAS has lost Noah Gray, and Ertz is now their #2 passing option.

Stick with talent, and DEN has proven they're talented. They're also going to be motivated to the end.

Yup. Got my usual mediocre fantasy effort from Mahomes. Welcome to my bench, Homie. Glad I picked up Richardson; I'll take my chances there.

Ready for Mahomes usual humdrum mediocre fantasy effort...

Bucky has a hip injury, from what I understand.

Hey Justin Jefferson: how about you not suck FOUR weeks in a row, ok?

I have JSN in there atm, but I think Dowdle may be the lesser risk. Thoughts?

Well, now Pickens is out, but so is Walker, and I have Charbonnet. My RBs are Achane and Chase Brown, and my WRs are JJ and JSN, so the last decision is FLEX: Guerendo, Charbonnet, or Dowdle. I currently have Guerendo in there; CHI's run D is porous. Anyone disagree with that?

Thanks for the input fellas; let me complicate it a bit: I also have Pickens to consider. JSN has more targets and is averaging more points per game than Pickens...do I sit Pickens and start JSN in one WR slot (other is Jefferson) and play Dowdle or Guerendo @ FLEX?

The hit on Hill to possibly end his career was one of the dirtiest chops I've ever seen. The Rams should be ashamed.

I have Mayfield ranked higher than Goff this week regardless, but stopping Godwin from having a big day without Mayfield also having a big game is smart.

Yes. That's a good protect the lead strategy.

Or...Diontae Johnson? PPR league. I have Waddle and Tee Higgins in my starting WR slots right now, so battling in my head between Likely and Sutton and D. Johnson for FLEX. Rudolph going for PIT @ QB, DEN/NE Over/Under is only something like 35, so I'm really thinking about running Likely out there as my FLEX (I have McBride as my TE). Thoughts?

We call it the Love Shove in Green Bay.

Anyone have an update on Waddle? It's Waddle v Mostert for me, and I'm tied.

Hope you chose to sit Lockett.

Love to be wrong.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Full PPR; 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1FLEX. Starters are: QB: Allen RB: McCaffrey/Ford WR: Downs/Waddle TE: McBride FLEX: Diontae/Sutton/Mattison/Hunt/KHerbert Waddle @ NYJ - is NY going to focus on Hill, and leave Waddle more room to operate? Diontae Johnson @ CIN - he's sucked for 2 weeks in a row, does that continue? Courtland Sutton v CLE - been a stud, but this is CLE, though at home... Mattison v CHI MNF - is he worth rolling the dice? Hunt @ DEN - do I start BOTH CLE RBs? Khalil Herbert @ MIN - is he going to get enough play to merit the FLEX? What do you think is the best lineup?

Nope.
