I'm down 25 points. I have one flex position available. PPR league. Leaning towards Abdullah even though DET running game is pretty weak.

Although, Jones has been doing pretty well last couple games and the highest point total this year for Abdullah is around 18.

neither, but Jones gives you a better chance for sure.

You're going to need a big play to even have a chance. I'd lean Jones.

Wow everyone says Jones. I was thinking tonight was Abdullah's coming out party - 80 yards rushing, TD, 50 rec.

It's a reach for sure.


How much does Reddick play?

Earlier this year he bailed me out and had a huge game. Keep waiting for Round 2. I'll go with Jones tonight

da faq...for him to get 25 that way, he'd need to have 6 catches as well. He's only had 3 career games with more than 3 catches. That's a lot of variables that need to line up (scoring a touchdown, catching a bunch of passes, getting a bunch of attempts to hit 80 yards).

Best bet is to hope Jones catches a 50-yard TD and can add 7-8 catches as well

Jones went for 6/205/2 in a game against them last year. No clue what he will do tonight, but I would definitely prefer him to Abdullah.

Abdullah fumbles twice - wow. TD pass there to Jones might've sealed a 25 point game. I know I know - WHO CARES

I need to run the numbers but I believe MJjr is prob top 3 or so WR over the past 3 weeks

It’s really hard to quantify how bad Abdullah is. I’m trying to decide if he or rob Kelley is worse

I needed Abdullah to get 4 more points to win, and he couldn't even score a td from the 1 yard line, and he fumbled again, so they basically benched him the rest of the game.
