FWIW, I'm going with A. Rodgers over K. Murray.

Uh .. how can one reduce something by more than 100%??

From a Rotoworld Week 9 summary article: Via Sarah York, this one is difficult to believe … yet all too believable: “The Chiefs won two super bowls between Daniel Jones’ most recent two passing touchdowns at MetLife stadium.”

B-Rob is out.. I picked up CAR WR2 J. Coker from the WW. (Lots of rostered players on Bye, or injured..)

Full-point PPR league. WR1 is M. Nabers; WR2 is C. Kupp. I'm currently going with MH Jr. at home vs. a tough CHI pass defense. The ARI OC *finally* started to move him around the formation last week, and he had a 100-yard receiving day and a TD. JAX WR1 B. Thomas badly injured his chest last week, falling on the football after high-pointing a TD pass.. Many expect him to sit this week; two sites don't even have him ranked. I grabbed CLE WR1 C. Tillman in this league, shockingly for $2 (on a $1,000 FAAB budget). He is at home, but vs. a tough LAC pass DEF. The opinion on Tillman seems to be "let it roll!," as he is the WR2 since Winston came in for an injured D. Watson. Thoughts?

Look like I'm gonna go against the grain. I'm seeing reports that B. Thomas Jr. will play. And, JAX WR G. Davis is very iffy. With that being the case, B. Thomas Jr. should see 10+ looks (and TE Engram). B. Thomas Jr. has BY FAR the easiest match-up (on paper) of the three.

Rookies can be a crap shoot. Is the team around them awful? Who is the OC? And, Head Coach? Unknown - other FA signings? I'd play out the stretch. ALSO - you'll likely REALLY piss off other teams vying for the last playoff spot. If they don't play against you in the remaining weeks, but another team in a similar situation does..

Same with Weepaws. We're only at the half-way point of the season. AND - I think weeks 10 thru 12 have a crap-ton of teams on BYE..

An update: ESPN’s Jordan Raanan writes that “A handful of Giants players told ESPN this week they weren’t pushing for a permanent change at quarterback.” The grander context here is that Giants media is convinced that Daniel Jones will eventually lose his job after getting pulled for Drew Lock last week. The players asked about this said things “might be different if Tyrod Taylor were still on the roster.” Ouchtown, Drew. It’s hard to treat Jones as a playable superflex quarterback with the threat of an in-game benching over his head. Hopefully you weren’t relying on him against the Steelers this week anyway. From a 30,000-foot view, the Jones era certainly appears to be winding down in New Jersey.

Full-point PPR. WR1 C. Kupp already played TNF. I'm currently rolling with BUF WR2 K. Shakir, @ Seattle. SEA is a bottom-12 pass defense. Demario "Pop" Douglas is H vs. a stingy NYJ pass DEF. Which is also getting ex-PHI DE H. Reddick on the field for this game.. Deebo had pneumonia earlier in the week, and was even hospitalized. SF is H vs. a middle of the road DAL pass DEF. If he is OUT, then I'll switch to SF WR4 R. Pearsall. The thing is: SF plays on SNF. I'm thinking of switching my WR2 to Pearsall. I can change out to Deebo if he is Active. Another note: I'm likely also FLEXing SF RB J. Mason (there is only ball to go around). Thoughts?

Full-point PPR league. RB1 = Derrick / King Henry; RB2 = J. Conner. I'm currently going with J. Mason, H vs. an awful DAL run DEF. SF's skill players are banged up; so is Mason, with his shoulder, actually. He lost out on TWO TDs last week to QB-sneaks, because I think SF was worried about said shoulder in a scrum situation.. I also have B-Rob, who is H vs. a middle of the pack CHI run DEF. He will likely be playing with M. Mariota as his QB, who would negatively impact the WAS OFF in general. Also, Ekeler is the third-down RB (generally). Thoughts?

Full-point PPR. RB1 = King (Derrick) Henry, RB2 = J. Mason. WR1 = Deebo S., WR2 = D. Douglas. FLEX = J. Addison. ARI RB J. Conner is being pulled for Emercado on 3rd downs, and when trailing.. ARI plays the LAC, and LAC is favored by 2.5 points. Also, LAC is a Top-5 defense vs. the run. KC WR Juju was a late-week addition to the injury report with a hammy. WAS RB B-Rob missed last week, and he's been (only) limited all week in practice. NOTE: If B-Rob is Active, I'll play him at FLEX over J. Addison. Also sitting: CIN RB Z. Moss, and BUF WR K. Shakir. Thoughts?

Update: switched FLEX to Juju - "for now." That gives me flexibility for the late games, IF B-Rob is Active. If he's not, I'll roll with Juju. Expanded: I've now seen on two websites that B-Rob will be Active. He'll by my FLEX

Full-point PPR league. RB1 = B. Hall; RB2 = D. Montgomery. WR1 = M. Nabers, WR2 = B. Thomas. FLEX = T. Bigsby. I'm benching Harrison Jr. because one-week is QUICK for a turnaround from a concussion; will he play the entire game? Also, LAC are a Top-10 pass defense. I'm benching Juju because he was a late-week addition to the injury report with a hammy. Also - who do you sit from the above to play him? NOTE: If Etienne is ACTIVE, I'll instead FLEX Juju. FWIW: also sitting IND RB T. Sermon, WAS RB A. Ekeler, and MIN RB T. Chandler. Thoughts?

Update: changed FLEX from Bigsby to Juju. Bigsby is only a two-down RB.

Interesting. JAX is favored over NE by 5, and Bigsby ran all over Indy with the lead, two weeks prior - for 101 yards and 2 TDs. NE DEF is 6th-worst vs. RBs.

So ..: 1) sit Mason for B-Rob? 2) FLEX B-Rob, sit Addison and Douglas, and start Juju?

So .. you'd bench B. Thomas of JAX vs. NE?

Just saw an article on Rotoworld; one that focuses on stats: Baltimore Ravens Derrick Henry is on pace for 1,995 yards and 23 touchdowns Though Henry is doing little as a pass-catcher, add in his receiving pace and he is tracking to clear 2,000 yards from scrimmage with 26 touchdowns. Henry has been a monster in Baltimore’s four consecutive wins. The Ravens are favored in every game for the remainder of the regular season with an average spread of 4.9 points. May God have mercy on your soul if you faded The Big Dog.

I have DAL KCR Aubrey, and NO WAY I'm dropping him over the Bye Week. Full-point PPR league. I need a KCR for Week 7. My weakest Bench players are BAL TE? I. Likely, and BUF (now) WR2 K. Shakir. My TE1 is PIT TE P. Freiermuth. I'm leaning towards cutting Likely. TE is such a waste land this year, when PIT has their Bye Week, I'm thinking I'll be able to pick up someone with a decent matchup that week. Shakir is "Mr. Automatic," and it will take A. Cooper some time to learn the playbook. Thoughts?

Second TE, in this case. Dropped M. Andrews a week or two ago.

OMFG.. Only the second time in my life I've turned off a G-Men game in disgust. That INT thrown by Jones in the first half was one of the worst plays I've seen this season. I'd have put in DeVito after that play, if I was the HC. AND - I'd have visited the GM's office after the game and met with Ownership, about how to proceed the rest of the season. Spend the $ on a FA QB next Spring, or "lose-out" for a high Rookie Draft pick.

Went with NE's WR1, D. Douglas..

Full-point PPR. WR1 is Deebo, who played TNF. My current WR2 is GB D. Wicks. I also have BUF WR1 K. Shakir who is listed as QUEST, but he was OUT Wed, Thur & Fri - and was just listed as LTD on Sat.. WW options include: 1) HOU WR Hutchinson - both Collins and Woods are OUT; 2) DEN WR2 L. Humphrey - WR2 J. Reynolds was put on IR; 3) TEN WR2 C. Ridley - home vs. soft IND DEF; 4) ATL WR3 R. McCloud vs. a soft CAR pass DEF; 5) BAL WR1 R. Bateman - home vs. WAS; and 6) ARI WR3 G. Dorch - at GB, and no looks with McBride back. Thoughts?? If GB WR1 C. Watson ends up being Inactive, I'll likely just keep D. Wicks in as a starter. If C. Watson is Active, I will likely grab someone off the WW. But who??

Thanks, Nomad. I'll give Ridley a chance. I see that Flacco will be Indy's QB, so TEN will be forced to throw in the second half. Shiite ..; he was JUST dropped this week, and is LOCKED..
