    Gabe v Dionate

    I'd go with Gabe. I could see why Diontae may be tempting, but I'd rather not start him in his first game back.

    The KC WR Situation Just Got Murkier

    It will be interesting to see where in the pecking order he ends up. Ahead of or behind Rice/Toney? Definitely would seem to slot in ahead of Moore/MVS/Ross/etc.

    Who are you starting Zach Evans over?

    That's where I am at. They signed a couple of JAGs to provide some healthy bodies at RB (and with the latest K.Williams news that makes perfect sense). I think the most likely scenario is that they give the rookie they drafted the first opportunity to show what he's got. So that gets back to my original question of the thread: who are you benching to start him (or maybe who are you starting to keep Evans on the bench)?

    Rice (KC) ppr

    Osborn should have a higher floor while JJ is out. Rice is a swing-for-the-fences option but also a bigger chance to strike out.

    Rb to start

    At this point, probably Moss, but if Roschon is active, I'd start him against the Raiders (they have just made AJ Dillon and the NE RBs look decent).

    Week 7 RB options.. need halp

    I also heard a report that McCaffrey may play (Mon night), but I haven't heard any update about Roschon. I'd hate to drop Spears for a one-week RB that may not even play.

    Evans or Foreman or?

    Well, the Rams previously had 4 RBs (3 on the active roster and one on the practice squad). They basically brought in Henderson and Gaskin to get back to 4 healthy RBs. Maybe this means that they think that the Williams injury could linger longer than they are saying publicly. It is certainly possible that Rams go with more of an RBBC or hot hand approach, but it makes more sense that they give the rookie they drafted the first shot to see what he can do rather than hand the job to some journeymen JAG. I'd say Evans is a reasonable gamble, but I could see preferring Reynolds if Monty and Gibbs are both out.

    Bears' players likey Bagent...

    I wouldn't read too much into the player comments. Of course they want to support and rally around their back-up rookie QB who may need to lead the team for a few weeks.

    Who are you starting Zach Evans over?

    Is that really a cause for concern that Evans won't operate as the lead back for at least one week? It's not surprising that the Rams would add some depth and not want to go into a game with literally only one RB. I mean there is a reason that Royce was on the practice squad behind Evans and Henderson was sitting around unsigned, right?

    RB Trade

    In a redraft league, I'd keep Henry. If dynasty or keeper where you'd have JT for the next few years, I'd make the trade.

    Evans or Foreman or?

    I think I'd go for Evans, especially if you have K.Williams. Picking between Foreman and Johnson before there is any clarity on how close Johnson is to returning creates more uncertainty IMO.

    Start Tank?

    As noted, it depends on your other options. I'd think you could do better than Tank against a stout Saints rush D (Mason or Z. Evans or Foreman/R.Johnson?)
  13. I don't think Foreman showed anything the Bears don't already know. He'll go back to being inactive once everyone is back healthy. I would think Roschon would be the lead back until Herbert comes back, though there is a risk that Foreman slides into Herbert's role while Roschan maintains the role he had (NFL coaches sometimes do weird things like that).

    MNF Discussion: Cowboys at Chargers

    My prediction is Cowboys 26 Chargers 21. However, I am almost always wrong, so you should be good with the Chargers and the over.

    Super Bowl in London?

    I could see it happening if London is willing to give a pile of cash to the NFL to host the game. Otherwise, it wouldn't seem to make much sense. A Super Bowl in London is probably better than the mid-season games they have now or a potential team in London.

    49ers and Eagles lose

    I wonder how many people put money on a Browns, Jets and Giants parlay.

    The Official Week 6 FU Thread

    FU to LaPorta - 10 targets with only 3 catches? WTF!
  18. Showboat

    Goff or Lamar?

    I think you stick with LJax, especially with Goff on the road.
  19. Showboat

    Burrow or Stafford.

    I'm playing against Stafford, so he should be good for 300+ yards with 4 or 5 TDs, heck maybe even run one in.

    PPR flex

    I'd start Davis over Kirk.
  21. Showboat

    PPR flex

    You are over-thinking. Stick with Henry. If you are no longer comfortable staring him, you should try to trade him.

    Who would you drop/keep?

    redraft or dynasty keeper league?

    TNF Discussion: Broncos @ Chiefs - Wk6

    Exactly, there was like 22 seconds left - they didn't even need to run the punt play. I could see if KC took a time out to force the punt.

    TNF Discussion: Broncos @ Chiefs - Wk6

    Why exactly does Denver take Time out after the sack? I think Payton has turned into Hackett.

    FLEXs to choose: Ford, Moss, Sutton, Downs

    Nope - can't say I didn't warn you.
