Start all of your Patriots this week unless it's obvious to the other way. In other words, don't start James White over Le'Veon Bell.

Just my flex decision.. probably play it safe this wk and roll Cobb out there


I'm on Cobb as a top 24 PPR WR

Ya thinking hogan or Parker in my flex?


Parker did go 5/103 last year vs SD, im not totally off him

I do think both carry risk

In the end I like the Pats implied point total, high total/spread suggest shootout,'and the better QB vs a weak secondary. No 'dola. If there ever was a Hogan game this is it

No Verrett, who bottled Landry last season, is a positive. The knee has me a bit concerned though and we may need to use that as the deciding factor. We have nothing to really go off of as far as who Cutler will lock on - we've been hearing his praises on Parker - I keep thinking back to cutler and Marty Bennett in Chicago, so Julius Thomas stays in my head. They got stills, cutler likes taking shots... what I'm saying is, you have a decent option in hogan, you can afford to let the Miami situation play itself out. Then make a more informed decision next week. We saw Hogan's targets/depth of targets vs KC, looks an awful lot like Thielen's work vs NO

People love talking about Verrett but this dude is almost just as good.

Hogan has the higher ceiling
White has the higher floor

My starting lineup would dictate which one I played

I'm a huge Hyde homer this season and I feel like I'm going to regret playing him over James White this week

I have Hyde on my bench, but I've been thinking he could catch a LOT of passes in this game. I didn't realize until today that he caught a pass when they were on the 5 yard line. He could get a garbage time score. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with him. Probably sit though.

It's hard for me to go away from Hyde considering he's on the field all game. Tough matchup in Seattle, but when comparing to white I'll just bet on the usage every time

Of course white "could". So could Lewis, burkhead, Gilly, and the pass catchers.

You know you can still make the right decision and it go the other way. You still made the right call. We have to accept this and the game will be a lot less stress free.

Damnit Gyno. Now you're making me second guess starting Maclin over Hyde. Good points though.

I heard a stat on NFL Network earlier that the last time an rb that weighed less than 180 averaged 10 fantasy points for the year was in the early '80s. They were discussing Cohen's season outlook. Thought that was intersting.

Yeah I know it. I've accepted that the smart and calculated move doesn't always work out.

I really haven't had line up issues over the past few years outside of deep Flex decisions. I go by march ups and volume, never by projected points

Just repeating the stat they took the time to look up. Hopefully Cohen can change that. I'd love to see it happen and I don't have him on a team.

GB/ATL total rising, now at 56.5. NE/NO up to 57. Incredibly rare. Only one game across the previous two regular seasons has closed over 56.


Might have to fire up all of the players in these game
