Is this the official 2013 Fantasy Football thread?

[spidey07]

I'm starting to rethink Todman again.. So this could be MJD's last home game - maybe MJD wants to start for that reason? and Todman will still get the majority of touches? Still too risky

If MJD gets the start, that's WAY too risky. The odds of him giving you next to nothing would be 10 to 1.

 

[Kev]

Sounds like MJD is going to start.. Just replaced Todman with Pitta.

Well at least that makes my decision on who to start easier.

 

[Caesar]

Pick two RBs

Adrian Peterson, DeMarco Murray, Zac Stacy, Bobby Rainey, Daniel Thomas and Rashad Jennings

I would like to start AP but not sure with his injury problem and playing against the Bengals D. Thinking of starting DeMarco Murray and Zac Stacy. What do you guys think? My picks or go with AP and Murray?

 

[dbk]

I would go AP and Murray after we get confirmation that AP is starting.. in like 5 mins. Doesn't Cinci have a bunch of D players injuries? TB has only allowed 2 rushing TDs and hasn't since Week 11. :O So if no AP ..then Rainey - very favorable matchup

Made it to the finals in 2 out of 3 of my leagues.

The one with money down I could use your opinions..

Not sure if I should use Lacy or Ryan Mathews.. I know mathews sucked at the start of the season but he's been doing good the last 6 weeks.

But.. its suppose to snow in GB which I assume means more running.

Everything else look good?

One person said RM, anyone else?

And to the guy above.. imo I would put in AP and Murray

First time making it to championship game. Opponent is projected to outscore me by 30 points, and I think he'll end up winning. But I don't want to lose by playing the wrong players. So definitely need your input. Here is my team. How does my lineup look?

QB. Foles
Rb. Gore
Rb. Dennis Johnson
Wr. B. Hartline
Wr. Marvin Jones
Te. Olsen
Flex. Pitta
D/ST. Dolphins
K. Gostkowski

Bench
Amendola
Pierre Thomas
Riley Cooper
Cordarrelle Patterson
Andy Dalton
Lions D

Should i be playing Pitta? And should i play Lions D instead?

Also not sure if i should play dalton instead of foles this week. A more favorable matchup for sure.

Fantasypros is telling me to play amendola, cooper, and lions instead of jones, pitta, and dolphins

any thoughts on the above?

 

[dispr]

0.5 PPR league.

Don't know who to start...

tentatively this is my lineup

QB-Drew Brees
RB- Ryan Matthews
RB- Reggie Bush
WR- Demaryius Thomas
WR- M Crabtree
WR/TE- Keenan Allen
TE- Vernon Davis
Flex- R Jennings
D- Lions D
K-J Tucker

Bench- Joique Bell,Gio Benard, Andre Johnson, C Ivory, Panthers D, Shane Vereen, K Cousins.

I'm open to all opinions, would you make any changes?? Thanks.... WHIR

 

[Aharami]

Caldwell is open. pick him up?

Mathews. He has been spectacular, ride the wave to the trophy my friend.

 

[SP33Demon]

Not good for Megatron owners. Keep your fingers crossed.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Sunday Countdown that there "seems to be some concern" about Calvin Johnson's (questionable, knee) Week 16 availability, and he's "not a sure thing to play" against the Giants.
Schefter hinted Megatron's availability wouldn't be determined until a pre-game workout, making him a true game-time call. Today's Giants-Lions game doesn't start until 4:05 PM ET. It puts fantasy owners in a major bind. We simply have no idea whether Megatron will play. He didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but did participate Friday.

 

[MisterJackson]

Yep, making alternate plans for Megatron. Oh well

 

[SP33Demon]

any thoughts on the above?

If you're down by 30, go for broke - your current lineup isn't getting it done. Put in the high variance Lions, flex Patterson over Pitta, Foles over Dalton, Amendola over Hartline. Hope for more Boom than bust. Good luck.

 

[tHa ShIzNiT]

fuck you mjd

 

[dbk]

any thoughts on the above?

Only move I would consider is putting in Amendola.. maybe. Amendola will prob get more catches but Marvin Jones might get you a score. Dolphins are playing Buffalo who's starting Thad Lewis. I'm actually starting Lions D but Dolphins might be a safer play.

 

[MisterJackson]

any thoughts on the above?

I think your line up is good, man.

I also have the Lions and the Dolphins D's. I'm playing the Lions, but I could just as easily play the Dolphins and feel just as good about it, so don't over think that one too much.

 

[dbk]

fuck you mjd

Yeah, I gotta take Todman out now. Apparently, MJD benched himself in a celebrity league that he's in.. what could it mean??

I have Pitta in my FLEX now but I also have SJax, and Montee. Should I put in Ball?? DAMN!

Don't ever bench Andre Johnson over anyone. He's still arguably the best receiver in the league, skill wise. Adding to the fact he may be in a possible shootout/come from behind garbage stats makes it even sweeter. Sit Crabtree, there's a chance the niners will gash ATL on the ground. Otherwise you look set.

Pitta's the safer bet for solid points. If you are desperate underdog, play Montee (he has more upside but more downside risk).

 

[SP33Demon]

Joe Haden (hip) is active and will start Sunday's Week 16 game against the Jets.
Haden is dealing with a hip pointer and had been listed as questionable on the injury report. He appeared to be moving around well in pregame warm-ups and will likely shadow Santonio Holmes, making him fantasy-irrelevant. Dec 22 - 11:38 AM

Good news for Cleveland owners, how effective Haden will be remains to be seen. I'd still stay away vs underrated NYJ@NY.

 

[tHa ShIzNiT]

if I bench todman, I have to go with Sproles (plays roughly 30% of the snaps), Roddy @ SF, or Donald Brown.

With that list of terribles, I'm considering just leaving todman in there and praying to the fantasy gods. MJD should die of gonorrhea and rot in hell.

 

[monk3y]

I still can't decide between DST Chiefs or Detroit...

I'm leaning towards Chiefs just because they got me this far.

Chiefs declared OLB Justin Houston (elbow) and LT Branden Albert (knee) inactive for Week 16 against the Colts.
Houston has missed a month with his right elbow issue. Albert will miss his third straight game.

Detroit is more desperate, and Houston is out for KC. I like Detroit slightly better.

Don't do it....

Never count on them. EVER

 

[MisterJackson]

If you had Brees and Cousins, who would you play today?

I'm projected to win by 10, but this Megatron news is a bit disconcerting to my teams hope. Wondering if I need the upside player of Cousins now...

 

[MisterJackson]

By them you mean Lions?
