Exactly, why punish Dickerson by stripping his record when he was only allowed to play a 16 game schedule.

I think this is the biggest reason to not go for the record, especially in a meaningless game. How can anyone feel real proud of getting the single season rushing record, but requiring an extra game or three to do it in. It's like breaking Usain Bolt's 100m record, but only having to run 90m due to some rules-change technicality. The real issue is that the NFL should maintain season records from the 12, 14 and 16 game eras until someone beats them in the same number of games.

Should have started the waterboy over McLaurin. The problem with McLaurin (for fantasy) is that he is not enough of a selfish diva who will whine and moan when he doesn't get the ball.

FU to McLaurin, though in reality the FU should probably go to Daniels and the Washington coaches for ignoring their best receiver - great game plan for losing and missing the playoffs.

Yep, there's a reason the Bengals won't be in the playoffs.

The last time Gibson started, Stevenson had one of his better games this season. Still, it doesn't seem like a good move for the Pats to intentionally take their best player off the field - I woudn't be surprised if Mayo doesn't make it to year 2.

I'd go with Stafford. The Rams should be motivated to not take their foot off the gas and I think Tampa will play better and not let the game get away from them like they did a couple of weeks ago @CAR.

Unless Pollard is inactive, I think I'd go with White.

Thanks Guru - great insights!

Anyone get fantsy points for punts?

This thread is starting to sound like a Monty Python skit.

With Gus declared out what are your thoughts on Vidal if Dobbins doesn't get activated from IR? I'm leaning towards starting one of those two and Miller if Kamara is out. I think my question boils down to who to pick between Spears, LaPorta, and Nabors if Kamara is active. Thanks!

TD league with 100 yd bonus - which two to start at flex positions: Dobbins @Patriots (I think he's a must start if active) Miller v.Raiders (if Kamara sits, should be more productive in what should be a more competitive game for the Saints) Spears @Jaguars (Great match-up, but seems like the ultimate point-chasing option and Pollard seems to have shed any injury designation) Nabers v.Colts (I like the talent and volume, but the Giants are a mess) LaPorta @49ers (not a great match-up, but maybe a decent bet to get a schemed into the endzone at least once?) Stevenson v.Chargers (actually had some nice runs last week, but tough match-up and may be back in the doghouse)

A pretty average game for Jacobs. He has scored multiple TDs in 3 out of the last 7 and been over 100 total yards in 6 out of the last seven.

A special gift for all Dowdle owners.....

FU to Baker Mayfield - just when I need a big game from you (because the rest of my team stunk it up today) you turn into, well, Baker Mayfield.

I think Miller is the high risk/reward play, GB should dominate but he might still get a lot of check-downs (I think Kamara has been declared out). I'd go with Kupp over Jennings (MIA has been pretty tough on receivers and I think Kupp is due for a bounce-back game).

I think JT is the safer play. Ford is tempting, but I'd only consider it if JT was going aganst one of the top run Ds.

I think I'd sit Hall.

I'd lean towards McMillan, too. Miller could be okay, but I think there is actually a risk that the saints are the victims of the first shut-out this season.

See - a little reminder helps.....

Did Sutton miss the bus to the stadium?

Yes

I'd sit shakir. I think McLaurin is approaching must-start status - he is going to be heavily involved if WAS is to be at all competitive. Benching McL is essentially a bet that Philly wins in a rout.
