.5 ppr

Forte and Langford/Aiken

Aiken going against the Chiefs, but I have the Chiefs D and definitely starting them. Should I just go all out and hope Chiefs D balls out and shuts down Aiken and leave him on the bench? And should I make sure I get any rushing touchdowns Chicago scores tomorrow by starting both backs?

the only thing I have different is woodhead in the flex instead of djax. he has been nonexistent for a few games now but I feel he is due.


They've both been pretty sporadic. But woodhead hasn't done anything the last 4 games. That's my reasoning for picking Jackson. But I'd say that is a go with your gut kinda call.

Kinda what I was thinking. Trying not to get caught up in espn projections. They have steelers with more points.

Follow up question.

Who sits?

Standard scoring with bonus for long receiving tds. (40+ yards)

Bolden vs tenn
Gore vs Houston
Hightower vs Detroit
Diggs vs Chicago

I think he's asking Langford or Aiken. And is weary of starting Aiken because he has the cheif's defense.

I'd still start Aiken. The Cheifs D can still do well if Aiken has a good game.

Basically wondering if I should start Langford or Kamar Aiken in my flex. I have Forte, but if he gets a touchdown stolen by Langford I could guarantee all those points by starting Langford too. Or should I just go w/ the guaranteed #1 WR option in Baltimore? Even though in order for him to do well, it would take points from the defense I'm starting

Thanks. I just realized I may not have made that clear, but you got it.

This. Thanks for the opinion. I'm just gonna hope Forte gets more carries today than the last few weeks, or at least finds the endzone and bench Langford.

Couple different leagues:

Carson @ Philly or Cammy Cam @ NYG?
Buck vs KC or Forte @ Minny?

AHurns vs ATL or Aiken vs KC?

Robinson, West, Hightower

Choosing 2 of the 3 for standard, which one would you exclude?

Currently leaning towards sitting West. Cant trust that KC backfield lately

Very conflicted between
Bryce Brown vs CLE
James White vs TEN

.5 PPR

White is a wild card just like any New England RB but he has been putting up points recently. Brown (he's the starter for me at the moment) seems like the safer play due to the matchup but he was also just picked up so there is no history to go off of. Thoughts?

Langford got more carries last week and didn't do much with them. Not saying he wont capitalize this week if given the opportunity..but I could see them going back to giving Forte more looks.

Plus, starting them both lowers your ceiling of possible points you can get out of those two starting spots. I'm not a fan of starting two players at the same position on the same team.
