Crazy or a no-brainer to start Dart @ Bears over Baker coming off his bye at home against the Patriots?

Well, Tucker has shown that he has a ceiling that Kamara lacks this season and weird things can happen during Thursday night divisional games. With Kamara, you are kind of betting that he has just been going through a rough patch rather than having the wheels come completely off. I think I'd lean towards Tucker, but wouldn't surprise me if both put up duds.

A new alpha in Denver? Not sure why Franklin has 7 targets while Sutton has only 3.

Rookie QB in first start at Rams? I'd lean towards Loveland (even with Kmet back). Didn't the Steelers have have 3 different TEs score 4 total TDs against the Bengals?

Steelers pull off the upset and beat the Colts.

I'm not convinced that Zona isn't a full RBBC, so Knight isn't a slam dunk for me. However, I'd bench London if there is any indication that he isn't a full go.

I'd lean towards B.Smith - the Chiefs have seemed to want to get him touches, and with Pacheco out for Sunday he should get plenty of opportunities including most of the passing down work. Boutte will hurt you in PPR if he doesn't connect on a long TD because he doesn't seem to get a lot of targets. I believe that Bourne has already had his moment for this season. BTW, Bill is at home, but still against SEA coming off their bye.

Probably go with Maye. Home dogs can be dangerous and this is almost a must-win for Pit - I think they find a way to slow down the Colts.

With Pacheco seemingly unlikely to play, I'd definitely want Hunt out of that group. Moore has the best match-up but hasn't done much this season. Both Marks and Dowdle have tougher matchups. I guess I'd go with Dowdle based on the chatter that the Panthers will prioritize him over Hubbard.

I’ve got to start 4 and bench one of the following: T.Spears v.LAC (got a gut feeling this could be a good game for him) R.Stevenson v.ATL (easy call if he ends up sitting) C.Sutton @HOU (tough D, will Den be able to get the ball to him?) J.Ferguson v.ARI (at home on Mon night should be a get-right spot after goose egg last week) S.LaPorta v.MIN (too many other DET weapons, but the Vikings are bottom third against TE)

Gadsden is hot right now - the biggest risk is that the Chargers go run-heavy against the Titans. I'd lean towards Tet.

I think you stick with Caleb. Both have good matchups, but I don't think Murray is a sure thing to play on Monday night.

I think you stick with the hot hand with Gadsden (not to mention I have to go against him this week, so there's a good chance he has a career day this week). Diggs might be okay but seems risky as the Pats spreads the ball around. Walker doesn't give you much in ppr and the hawks seem to prefer Charb near the stripe.

On the bright side, no one will be starting him only to have him disappear after a few plays.

Well, great coaching (or maybe more of a personnel decision) may have been recognizing that Wilson shouldn't have been starting in the first place. I'm not sure why he is still the back-up. In a pinch, I think that Jameis would give the Giants a better chance to remain competitive.
