Am I wrong to contemplate benching Hopkins for Martavious Bryant?

Play the players who got you where you are this year. Hopkins has been the best WR in the NFL this year. You absolutely have to keep starting him now, and for the ROS as well.

Why would you start 3 players are on the same team?

Because that offense is awesome and Indy's defense isn't?

If I could, I would start all 4 of the big Pitt studs.

I don't even worry about who the defense is except in the most extreme cases. I wouldn't consider Indy one of those cases.

This is never a good idea.

Guy in my league drafted Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb, and Eddie Lacy--and maybe also Pack D. He's last in the league and has no chance to make playoffs.

Last week, I started Ben Roth and DeAngelo Williams. Figured I'd be involved in any score the team had. Then Bryant runs it in.

You start Brown, Williams, and Bryant, and Jesse James will have the game of his life.

Last year Rodgers Cobb and Lacy would've been money. Can't go on that theory

You're wrong. Start your best players/best match ups. Don't worry about the 3 letters next to their names.

You may have been burnt but that's the reality of fantasy football. You never know what players are going to do.

Big Ben and Deangelo combined for 40 points last week. Who cares if Bryant ran one in?

And that guy isn't in last because he took 3 packers, he's in last because his first rounder has been Garbo, his 2nd rounder has been a mild disappointment, and his 3rd rounder has been a slight disappointment.

Remember last year when Big Ben threw for 6 TDs against IND? I don't think OP is crazy for considering it. He just better not be sad if Hopkins goes off.

Please join my league next year. I would love to play against an opponent who leaves Hopkins on his bench.

BTW, I LOST a matchup this year because the owner didn't set his lineup and he played Bryant instead of Hopkins. I think this was two weeks ago and I lost by 1.25 points because of it.
