I'm going up against the #1 guy in my league for first place. I'm benching Cutler for Dalton vs. Tampa Bay...Just can't risk Cutler throwing three picks against Detroit. I am starting Brandon Marshall though

You guys are getting too cute and overthinking this. There has been more shitty advice on this board than usual lately.

Cutler averages 2 turnovers a game. Most on the NFL at 18. Detroit gives up 3rd fewest points to QB's and they're playing Detroit at home.

Sometimes you win some, and sometimes you lose some. I've done some "stupid" things the past 4 weeks, and I've gone from 2-6 to 6-6 and a VERY good chance to win and get to 7-6 battling for the 6th/5th seed. Sometimes you go with your gut + your findings + counting how many birds you see in the sky and win.

Two turnovers = -4. Mett is averaging 1.25 turnovers per game. Cutler is more likely to score more points, but fantasy football can be a game of randomness.

I just like to make what I would consider to be the "smart" decision. Trusting in studs, understanding that TD's are variable, and going all in on every hype train.

So you would start Cutler at Detroit over Dalton against Tampa?

My QBs were shite all year so i picked up Mett 4 weeks ago and started him. Gone 4-0 since. Not saying it was Mett that won me those games but I'm riding the train

"It's your funeral."

Just playing with you Byron hopefully they both do well. I'm starting to really like all LSU NFL players (OBJ, Mett, Landry, not JaMarcus, Tyrann, PP).

I would probably start Dalton. I'm currently starting Eli Manning over Cutler. I have Alshon and Martellus and I just cant put all my eggs in Cutler.

I'm starting Mett over Cutler this week. I already have first place locked up. Cutler just doesn't have a good matchup, and Mett threw for 299 and two TDs agaisnt Houston just a couple of weeks ago.

Dalton vs TB isn't a good match, their D has been legit the last 2 or 3 weeks
