zftcg 84 Posted October 7, 2019 Dallas @ NYJ seems to be the chalk pick this week, but I'm wary. They've had a bunch of cake match-ups early in the season and haven't delivered much. Plus Darnold seems likely to return this week. I agree that if Falk is still in, that makes them a lot more attractive. In one of my leagues, GB (vs Detroit) is available. Lions aren't a great match-up, but I view GB as mostly a bet on talent. I think they've shown they're one of the league's top defenses. Beyond that, not a whole lot. If LAC is out there, playing against Pitt's third-string QB, that's a good pickup. But Yahoo has them at 89% ownership. I want no part of either side in the Washington-Miami Tank for Tua Bowl. Tenn @ Denver is an OK defense with an OK match-up. Philly @ Minn is an interesting test of strength vs. strength (Cook vs. Philly run D) but don't expect another 35-point outburst from the Eagles.

oldtimer 84 Posted October 7, 2019 Dallas should be ok against the Jets. If Darnold doesn't play, it's a no-brainer. If he does, the Jets will be a different offense as they get Herndon back as well. I'd still like the Cowboys chances of creating a turnover to go along with a couple of sacks. Green Bay has looked very good. Until they went into Prevent Mode against Dallas, they were simply shutting them down on all fronts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrokh 567 Posted October 7, 2019 I picked up Baltimore late in the week not to start, but for week 6 at home against the putrid Bungles. If available, I think they are the play... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,450 Posted October 7, 2019 Either the Steelers or the Packers or I might just keep the Panthers one more week vs the Bucs. Those are the best choices I have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgirgent 2 Posted October 7, 2019 The Saints. Last three: 17, 16, 12. Next three: Jax, Chi, Ari. All rookies or backups. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Expanding on this a bit more, I don't know who will win that turdfest of a game on Sunday, but the smart fantasy play is to stay far, far away from all of it, fantasy-wise. McLaurin if he's healthy. Maybe Peterson or Preston Williams if you're desperate with byes and injuries. But for God's sake, don't start either QB or either defense. At least one of those may have a good game. But do you really want to bet your fantasy fate on knowing which one it will be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zftcg 84 Posted October 8, 2019 Anyone else considering SF after tonight’s performance? Not a great matchup (@LAR) but Rams aren’t as scary as they used to be. And Niners look legit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zftcg 84 Posted October 8, 2019 Also if anyone drops Buffalo during their bye week and you have room on your roster for two Ds, they host Miami the following week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my league that uses standard DST scoring, Pats have 100 points through five games. Second best D is the Bears, who have 56. Amazing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Niners look legit I posted this weekend SF should of been the streaming pickup for week 5, and I was right.. They will still be a decent D against the Rams who weekly have given up several sacks & ints...SF possible in DL & LB talent might be the toughest test for Goff and a shaky OL who Pro Football Focus ranked last so far in the NFL this season....Note....week #7 SF will get the soft Redskins, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
