Check this out, it might help...
Go Gurley. Indy’s defense isn’t great but it’s not horrible. There is a possibility that the Raiders may have to pass to win against Andrew Luck. On the other hand, the 49ers defense couldn’t keep a grapefruit from rolling uphill. That game will get out of hand early and the Rams will run, run, run.
And no, I don’t expect a piece of the action for my sage advice.
I’ve found that flipping coins works just as well as hours of research...
Play Murray — he’s been dependable for the vast majority of the season and Gurley has dropped off the map for waaaaayyy too many games. I got him playing alongside Jay Ajayi and David Johnson in MY championship game this weekend...
GD, I hate to break this to you but nobody cares about your fantasy team.
Which is why I posted in chat and not breaking
Heh. Good because I’d have to break in my own money to pay out on the meager winnings.
I made the championship game 3 years ago in a league with a $300 payout. It came down to whether I started Drew Brees or Andy Dalton at QB. Both were playing for playoff spots. Normally that’s a no brainer for Brees. But New Orleans was on the road in the rain at Carolina and the Bengals home against an inept Vikings team. I started Dalton, and he outscored Brees by 20 points. And I got a very happy new year.
I think everyone is fine except for QB Kirk Cousins. I’d rather take the home QB Barkley.
Interesting. I went to the waiver wire and he was available. 43 pass attempts (average) over the past 3 weeks.
chicago has give up only 104 pass attempts in the same time period.
Projections are less than a point and a half between the two. Plus, every time barkley completes a pass to meredith, I get points for both of them.
Thanks!
I’d start Lativus Murray. The Colts run defense is awful and he’s getting most of the carries.
I’m pulling for Bryce Petty to succeed and become the Jets franchise QB. Playing the Patriots is a tough assignment but let the kid play and learn. Like the Titans have done with Mariota and the Raiders have done with Carr. Jets should do the same with Petty.
SF-Kapernick-inspired run defense: 176.3 per game
Indy run defense: 109.6 per game
If Gurley is the #1 RB and is breathing, start him

I don’t think you can go wrong with that choice... both should have good days.
What caught my eye was “ Malcom Mitchell Q/R/W/T”
Can you REALLY play a QB as a flex player? If so, I’d be looking for one. At least, in our league, QB’s score more, and more consistently.
No, Mitchell is a W/T. The Q/W/R/T is between gurley and murray.
In the league I’m in, if gurley gets 100/1, he scores more than a QB that gets 300/1.
I’d start my Grandmother against the Niner’s. Todd Gurley would be my pick.
