Is it an awful idea to play 4 people from the same team?

I have 4 Redskins players, playing against a shitty eagles team and fighting to win the division. My options are as follows (No ppr)

RG3 (stafford is backup)

Alfred Morris (not taking him out)

Pierre Garcon (Cecil Shorts, Steve Smith, Donnie Avery as backups)

Kai Forbath (Garret Hartley is the backup)



on one hand, I feel pretty confident that the Skins roll the Eagles, and I could rack up a ton of points in that game. On the other hand, if they lay an egg, I am fricked. What would the board do?

Well.. if Washington scores like they are supposed to, one of those players will have big points, maybe 2.

If they don't, you're fricked. I wouldn't go with the kicker. No way the passing game, running game, and kicking game all you get the desired points that you want.

Not necessarily an awful idea. The combo of Brady, Welker, Ridley, and Gostkowski have carried me to the Championship game in one league.

Now if you started 4 Cardinals that would be awful.

I do this with good offenses if I'm favored in the matchup and just need consistent points. If I need upside, I would avoid it.

The year I won my league I had Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne, Dallas Clark, and the Colts kicker.
I also had Randy Moss and that was the year he broke the TD record

Only one I would drop is Garcon and play Shorts. He has been too consistent to leave out IMO

word. those 4 players accounted for 77 points in week 12. if I had that from them, I would still have Andre Johnson, Knowshon Moreno and Marshawn lynch to get me solid points, and Vernon Davis or Tony Scheffler for a small amount of points.

my league has no bonuses and no ppr, so getting the 110 or so I could get out of that would likely win the day.

I played Stafford/Megatron/Hanson/Detroit defense last week to make it to the championship game

You got extremely lucky to win with that lineup. 3 of those 4 were terrible last week

You can ask the TDFSB non regulars league. It was because I also had Andre and Heath who played really well
