It cost me a win. But on paper it was the right call I think. What would the board have done? Jefferson off a bye or Woods?

Who else did you start? Both seem like must starts. The Vikings were so effective running the ball that they didn’t even need to pass, but on paper I thought they would have. No shame in starting Jefferson.

I probably would have started Woods but, there’s nothing wrong with starting Jefferson. You can’t get them right all the time.

I agree. I almost benched woods just bc I thought rams were going to have a heavy run script bc I thought that the rams would dominant Miami. I was really wrong. Ended up starting woods bc of weather concerns in another game so it worked out. Didn’t really matter though bc I played against metcalf

The assumption was that Alexander was going to shadow Theilen leaving JJ with the great matchup. JJ was shadowed and the Packers didn't attempt to tackle Cook all game.

Kupp was the plus matchup in the Rams game.

So your logic was fine imo.

Jefferson is Diggs from last year.

High end WR2 who is boom or bust every week.
