So now you can start him without using the roster spot. Same zero points.
Seriously though, both of those guys are idiots. Raiders now in huge WR trouble.
Playoff QB advice for weeks 14,15, and 16.
Goff; vs PHI, vs SEA, vs Ten
Taylor; vs IND, vs MIA, vs @NE
Keenum; vs CAR, vs CIN, vs GB
Dropping Mariota
Keenum seems like the wild card out of this bunch, hot streak?
Leaning on Taylor for weeks 14, 15, then Goff at 16 if I made it to the championship game.
If I can get over 20pts from these QBs, I think I'll be fine. I have other guys like McCoy, Kamara, Ertz, JAGs D and Hopkins to help.

The problem with Tyrod and Keenum is that they might get benched at any minute. But I agree, I would go with Tyrod and Goff.
goff has a juicy week 16 matchup and has proven he can get it done against subpar defenses (which the titans definatley have), the week 14 and 15 matchup ones aren't as hot though. Keenum is playing like hot shit right now and you may as well stay in the flames. Taylor has a nice floor but the week 16 matchup isn't too hot but his week 14 and 15 matchups are great
i'd go keenum if you were only looking to pick up one, or taylor/goff if you can pick up both

The undefeated dream is dead. Lost by 3 points in my 16-team league thanks to Amendola not doing anything with Hogan out, and Evan Engram almost getting blanked. Lost my 2nd straight in the GAF league as well. Time to boot some useless RBs off my roster, and I'm dropping Amendola. Hopefully Josh Gordon is still available.
I wish. :( I'll probably stick with the Steelers and Saints, but their schedules are not that great overall. The Colts (Jags, Bills, Broncos, Ravens) have a much better slate and have been good as of late, but I'm not sure I'm willing to take the risk.
So who should I start at WR? I have Diggs, Coleman, and Kupp starting, with Stills, Westbrook, Agholor, and Gordon on the bench. I think I'll keep the lineup the same but I was wondering if I should swap out Coleman for Agholor or Gordon. Coleman seems to be a solid option at flex, and I have no idea how Gordon will play. Agholor had a big game points wise but doesn't always score a lot every week.
I sat Joe Mixon, Robby Anderson, and Jamal Adams this past week. 70+ points on my bench....that hurt a lot. But I still won my fantasy game by over 40 pts against my wife. 8-4 now and almost a guarantee lock for the playoffs. Next week determines where I'm seeded.
Going into the last week before playoffs, only one team had clinched in our 14 teamer. 7 spots up for grabs. This week is gonna be huge.
Wish we had some drama like that, it'll be a pretty boring last week. We have one guy at 10-2 (his only 2 losses to me heh) and me at 9-3 locked in and the other two spots are between 3 teams (one at 8-4 and the others at 7-5 but with more points-for).
Glad I was able to clinch early, it's been a wild ride this season. Lost all hope multiple times after injuries to star players only to hang on with a solid if unspectacular supporting cast. Lost OBJ, Watson, and (basically) Jordy Nelson but somehow have managed to stay afloat. Rummaging though people's scraps helped, got Tate and the Jags D after someone dropped them on their byes.
I honestly don't think I have the star power for a championship, though. But it was nice to make it back to the playoffs after being 1st out the past 2 years. Here's the playoff roster:
QB - Ryan (have a claim in for Rivers and if I get him I can play matchups)
RB - Fournette, Hyde, Dion Lewis, McKinnon, Kenyan Drake
WR - Keenan Allen, Tate, Jordy Nelson (hoping Rodgers comes back!), Sterling Shepard
TE - Walker and Greg Olsen
D/ST/K - Jags and Ravens (I usually don't roll 2 deep with defenses but those two seemed worth the trouble), Will Lutz
Good luck FantasyEra!
I'm 6-6 after starting 1-6 and if I win my matchup this week, I'm in the playoffs. Pretty effin crazy. 12 team standard league.
Gonna do a lot of over-thinking the week leading up to sunday

Ideally anyone that locked up a playoff spot ahead of this past weekend should have already been doing that. Main reason I plucked the Green Bay Packers D last week before the Steelers game even though I've already got Jacksonville. They draw Cleveland next week and I don't want them being used against me.
That's downright exciting. Your fantasy playoffs are essentially starting a week early.
7 out of 8 playoff slots are already locked up in the long-running Era (formerly GAF) No Quitters 16-team league. It's not all dull, however... we have four teams jockeying for that final playoff spot and they all play different opponents. Plus, the top two teams are fighting it out for the #1 overall seed. So there's still some drama to be had... just not as much.

Need some help for my W/R spot this week ERA:
Jamison Crowder vs Dallas (my favorite of the 3 suggested)
Alex Collins vs Detriot
Orleans Darkwa vs Oakland (the Eli situation makes me actually want to AVOID this pick)

Clinched playoffs in my two leagues and it's frankly a miracle with some of the injuries I've had to deal with.
I think it's too early in the week to make this decisions, but I don't see how you can bench Crowder after last week.
Planning to bench Hunt for Perine this week.
Which means Hunt will probably go off this week.

Are you in PPR? 108 is usually enough to win in my 12 team standard. I'm second in scoring averaging about 105 a game.
Woodhead. Not only Morris is not a pass catcher, but Rod Smith is playing more snaps than him.
I'm deciding whether to play Hill , Hunt or JuJu at the Flex spot. I doubt it Hogan will be back for the Pats
Need some help. Battle for first place
Matty ice or Captain Kirk
Philly D or Jags D
Tucker or Legatron

I'm not sure it's possible to trust Alex Smith right now until he shows otherwise. I think I'd rather start Blaine Gabbert. That's how bad it's gotten.
doing some playoff planning & trying to decide if i should run with the giants def against the zeke-less cowboys in week 14 or the jets vs denver (leaning towards the former option)
i have baltimore atm -- and, assuming i win week 14, will be running with them the rest of the way -- but i don't like the matchup vs pitt
anyways, thoughts?

Giants will be prob starting Webb or Geno, I think playing the Dallas D against them might be a good option.
Other options are the Cards vs Tennessee, Pats vs Miami
Is it time to bench Kareem Hunt? I am considering playing Marshawn Lynch over him, thats how bad its gotten.
pats aren't available, unfortunately
dallas d probably isn't a bad option tho
Yea i'm probably going to go with Beast Mode. Why does Andy Reid ruin everything?
For my flex spot this week, I'm trying to choose between:
Alex Collins vs Lions
Alshon Jeffery vs Seahawks
Josh Gordon vs Chargers
I kind of want to start Gordon because I'm guaranteed a top 2 seed, but I can also clinch 1st place in the regular season and most total points scored, so maybe I should really take this decision seriously.

If you have the opportunity to wait on starting Gordon, it's probably worthwhile.
He's talented but he's going to have rust, may be on a snap count and has a garbage QB throwing to him unlike his rookie year.
