Asking For Help With My Lineup - First Playoff Game
Posted on 12/8/16 at 10:49 am

Reeled off 7 straight, finished 10-2 and in 1st place at the end of the regular season.
I'm having trouble particularly with my RB's and WR's
QB - Drew Brees
RB - Doug Martin, Latavius Murray, Jeremy Hill
- Martin vs New Orleans
- Murray @ KC
- Hill @ Cleveland
WR - Antonio Brown, Michael Thomas, Jamison Crowder
- Brown @ Buffalo
- Thomas @ Tampa Bay
- Crowder @ Philadelphia
Crowder at my flex with Brown and Thomas as WR1 and WR2 respectively has been my bread and butter. But I can't help but notice the matchups favor Hill in the flex over Crowder. I've never had a RB in my flex. Crowder is consistent unlike Hill. Really stuck here. This is a PPR league.
Any help is appreciated!

Personally, I prefer RBs in my flex as they tend to get more consistent touches. In your situation I would consider Crowder as my WR & put Hill in my flex.
Right now I am not confident in starting any WRs for the Saints. It seams that while DB is spreading the ball around, lately it appears they tend to focus on a different player getting the bulk of the targets each week. So, I'm not sure it will be Thomas' turn this week. And, M Thomas finished the game last week a little banged up, so you will need to watch the injury report on him.

You may also consider starting Hill over Doug Martin. Martin may be a little banged up and Charles Sims is coming back this week.

Here is what I would roll with:
Latavius Murray-Chiefs have been stingy against RBs lately giving up only 21 FPG to RBs the last 5 weeks but he'll likely be a large factor on the road in cold conditions and he had 23 touches last week.
Jeremy Hill-He put up 168/1 rushing on only 9 carries earlier this year, good for 27.2 FP.
Brown- obvious must start
Thomas- (if active, check all week, dealing with a foot)
Flex- Crowder-Scored against them earlier this year and Eagles now give up a whopping 46.1 FPG to WRs the last 5 weeks so keep using him.

Start:
Murray and Hill at RB
and your WRs at WR and flex.
Martin is going to share time with Rodgers and possibly Sims.
Thats my opinion

You got the WRs right. Start Brown and Thomas and flex Crowder. RBs you should go with Hill and Murray.

Looks like a consensus of sitting Martin.
Hill/Murray & Brown/Thomas/Crowder may be the play here
Hill/Murray & Brown/Thomas/Crowder may be the play here

No advice, just came in to comment on how impressive 7 straight is. The first and last place teams in my league are only separated by 2 wins, and no win streaks longer than 3. Keep it up

Not gonna lie, the streak has me nervous and feeling a let-down coming up, but that's just the pessimist in me.
Seems just like yesterday I was on this board in panic mode trying to ship away Brees, Brown, and Jordan Reed. Me turning down all the shitty trades from my friends that this board recommended I deny looked to pay off. Haven't lost since.
