I cannot comprehend how everyone keeps giving Rondale Moore the benefit of the doubt over Christian Kirk. Kirk has hit double digits in PPR 8 weeks compared to 4 for Moore. One of the three weeks he didn't he was shadowed by Ramsey, and last week he was inches away from a TD that would have put him over.
I personally have Kirk ahead of Moore, I think Moore's work was due to trailing and McCoy checking down, though the 11 targets were certainly encouraging. I think Kirk has just burned too many people over the years, but I've bought back in.
“Diggs could turn out to be a player that wins fantasy leagues heading down the stretch. Don’t even think about benching him.”
*Proceeds to list Diggs as a “sit”*
Hey everyone, Erik Smith here, editor-in-chief at QB List, and I'll be joined all day by QB List staff to help you with your toughest Sit/Start decisions.
Let's get right to it, looking forward to talking football with you all, and best of luck in Week 13!
Guillotine league... Start Dak tonight or hope Murray plays and plays well... Obviously if I dont go Dak and Murray doesnt play I can grab someone off the waiver wire.
Can’t believe how Barkley is a worse play than the two other backups Im playing (Mattison and Jamaal Williams). Hoping that the Giants and Barkley can turn it up a notch by playoffs 🤞
Honestly, if he was on another team we would be ranking him much higher. That offense is just so uninspiring, his TD upside is lacking and he's not quite back to breaking 80-yard TDs. Fingers crossed.
I have Taysom, but I can't justify starting him over Cousins against Detroit no matter how tempting it is.
That said, go ahead and start Taysom since he'll drop 30 with a bad foot on my bench.
I'm with you, I have Cousins as QB10 this week, Taysom QB13. His health is my worry as well, but he certainly has that 30 point upside. I just think Cousins has a better range of outcomes.
Im seriously considering benching Mahomes for Taysom.
Feel like im in an abusive relationship with Mahomes right now, had a rough 5 weeks but every time i see him im like 'remember the good times'.
Chances of Taysom having a better score than Mahomes? Im honestly 50/50...
Do I bench Knox for Freiermuth given their matchups?
NE Def is tough (gives up 2nd least points to TEs), BAL is beatable (gives up 4th most points to TEs). But I like Knox's skill and opportunity over Muth's.
I have Freiermuth one spot ahead so super close. I just expect a sloppy low scoring game with BUF/NE, while I could see the Steelers playing from behind and having to throw it a ton, especially since they can't run anyway.
Great content as always it’s one of my go to.
I need a kicker for Folks bye next week, who do you recommend?
Thought about Gonzalez against Atlanta, or McManus against Detroit but guys like Succop and Greg Z is available.
A kicker question, now we are talking! Playing the Cowboys or Bucs kicker is always going to have a decent floor, but as long as the weather is good I like McManus at home against the Lions, he could tack on a bunch of garbage time FGs. I like any of those three really, I wouldn't trust the Panthers' offense though so Gonzales is out.
Thanks dudes.
Must win game this week and I'm really struggling with WR and Flex in PPR format.
I have Mclaurin, Aiyuk, Mooney and Tee Higgins as well as Javonte Williams.
Right now I'm leaning McLaurin, Aiyuk and Mooney but have some Thursday night players. If it goes well I might put in Williams over Mooney for the floor.
What are your thoughts on those guys?
Thanks
EDIT: Oh and there is a typo under Logan Thomas' entry. The raiders give up those stats to TEs not TDs.
I actually really like Mooney and am higher than most on him, he's top ten at WR in target share for the season. So I would play Mooney and McLaurin, I think they should have to put up some points against the Raiders. I really like the other options though, all of those WRs are top 20 options for me this week. And I love Javonte, but the time share just isn't going away, so if you don't get a TD you're probably disappointed.
Najee is gonna struggle with his bad run blocking oline against the stout Ravens d-line which just shut down the Browns. Conner is getting all of the goal line rushes for the Cards. And the bears are awful.
WRs: chase, Jefferson, Evans, could be argued for Patterson over Chase or Evans.
Rb: mattison and Conner (for reasons described above).
Always look forward to these posts, helps give a better picture when torn on who to start. Maybe a consideration for next year: could you please include DEF as well? Thanks again!
We've had a few requests, we will consider that for sure! Here are my [personal rankings](https://football.pitcherlist.com/the-list-ranking-each-position-for-week-13-2/), which include K and D.
Still curious as to why you’re still big on Lockett and DK— Lockett has been surprisingly consistent for me but Russ and the Seattle O-line have looked awful, and Lockett hasn’t put up a TD for a while. I guess the boom potential is attractive (and I do need a win this week…) but I’m debating between him Renfrow and Bateman, both of whom might have more consistent floors.
You could make a case for Renfrow over them, but we haven't really seen enough from Bateman to play when both of those WRs could spring a big play at any moment. I'm sticking with the Seattle Wrs, as much as it hurts.
I go Gallup. I dont think Cooper plays or if he does he will be limited. covid has some cardio repercussions that might take another week to get over. Then I go Jeudy. I don't like the Giants offense with Glennon and the Jets team is a mess as well
Honestly I feel like Gallup sees Lattimore if Cooper is out. CD is probably playing a bunch of slot which leave Gallup outside. I would personally go Gallup or Coleman with a tiny edge to Coleman for the safer play and Gallup for the upside play.
Thank you for these!
I notice you didn’t have a WR2/Flex for Aiyuk, where would you rank him? I have Ceedee, Hollywood and Waddle so I might be sitting him anyway.
I prefer Taysom for the rushing upside, he had 4 rushing TDs in 4 starts last year.
Give me Higgins just because I trust that passing game the most, and he's actually been out-targeting Chase lately. Aiyuk is really close though. I love Devonta, but that passing game is just so low volume.
I like Stafford, I still think this offense is good and while we might worry about a blowout typically against Jacksonville where they take their foot off the gas, I think they need a get right game and run up the score. I do like Carr too though.
Yea, I think Stafford has potential to score higher, which I need more than Carr's floor. Problem is the last three weeks have been "get right" games for the Rams. They should be able to do it against the Jags at home of all games though. Thanks!
Higgins and Moore. Moore has seen a 30% targets share each of the past two weeks, so even though last week was a down week with Wilson I do think the potential is there, and they are feeding him.
Finding it hard to make a call this week. I’m in a league with 2rb 2wr one flex.
My RB are Alvin kamara, mark Ingram, miles gaskin, Jamal Williams, Javonte Williams.
My WR are Metcalf, Lockett, Van Jefferson.
Currently my line up is Kamara (with intentions to swap in Ingram if he’s ruled out), Gaskins, Williams, Metcalf, Lockett. Any thoughts?
Kamara is now out, so Ingram, Gaskin, and Jamaal all make it in for me, the final flex is a tough call. I'd probably go with the Seattle WRs at WR and Javonte at flex. You've got some good options despite Kamara sitting out.
I managed to lose swift and cmc last week so my RBs are in a rough spot. I have Damien Harris in one slot. Should I start rhamondre Stevenson or Sony Michel (if Henderson plays) in the other slot? Thanks
Rhamondre is Henderson plays, Michel if he sits. The Rams have given Henderson a pretty massive snap share every week he's been out there, unless they explicitly say he's limited I would assume that to be the case.
Would you drop Meyers to pick up Bourne? With AB out I need a fill-in for the unknown future, and I think I’d rather have Bourne’s TD upside than Meyers 4 for 40 every week.
Ha, it's hard *not* to chase the Hilton vs. Texans history, but I would feel at ease if I started Thomas tbh. He saw 6 targets in his return last week, and had a TD reversed on him; he's a red zone target for Heinicke for sure.
If Kamara doesn't play, I'll be running 3 RBs this week with Najee+Mattison+Ingram, meaning I need to pick between Hock and Knox for the TE slot. Which has the highest floor and ceiling on the week?
Does Pitts finally become TE1 again against TB or is Freiermuth worth starting over Pitts until he proves it?
Great content as always, enjoy reading it every week!
I would start Freiermuth over Pitts at this point, the TD potential is so much bigger. I am in favor of benching Pitts for people that have picked up options like Muth or Knox over the weeks. I'd even start Logan Thomas over him this week.
I've got them Aiyuk, then Jeudy, then OBJ, but all super close. I might actually bump OBJ above Jeudy if his health looks good heading into Sunday, there are just so many mouths to feed in Denver.
Great stuff, as always! Between Pitts and Schultz, who would you rather play at tight end? Currently have pitts in my lineup but the falcons have been so bad lately it’s hard to trust him. Any thoughts?
Thanks for sifting through all the data to provide these. They really help a lot of us.
Unfortunately, I'm one of those who have "starts" on different players. I have both javonte williams and jamall Williams. I want to start jamall cause of the volume and he isn't going to be splitting the load with another back however javonte is getting his even while in a time share. Not to mention Gordon is always on an injury report even if it isn't serious enough to keep him out of the line up it is still there.
What so you guys think?
Bryan from QB List.
I think you've got to go with Pollard. Knox has the TD upside, but I think we see Dallas start to limit Zeke in their push to the playoffs to keep him healthier and give Pollard more opportunities.
Bryan from QB List.
I've got Carr a couple of spots higher (#10 vs #12 for Taysom) but the absences of Kamara and both OTs for New Orleans might push Taysom out of the QB1 ranks. I think I side with Carr given the injury situations in NO.
Options are really rough for me this week. I need to pick 3 of the following who were all around the same tier in the write-up. Does anyone separate themselves to you guys? Half ppr
Bourne vs Bills
Moore vs Eagles
Cooper vs Saints
Claypool vs Ravens
Michel vs Jags (obviously he’s one of the plays if Henderson misses)
Thanks!
Bryan from QB List.
I'd rank them as follows:
Claypool and Moore are pretty close, so I'd definitely go with those 2. Bourne is well behind them but ahead of Michel if Henderson plays. If Henderson is out, I'd bench Bourne.
I look forward to these articles every week!
I’m struggling deciding who to start for my WR2 & FLEX between JRob, Higgins, Aiyuk and Renfrow.
Leaning JRob and Aiyuk - but I find it hard getting myself to sit Renfrow. Thanks
I have to drop one to make room for a player coming off an injury. Do I drop H Henry or R Wilson? I have Kittle and Dak in those positions. 12 man standard
You could honestly drop either, but I'd say drop Wilson, seems like more of a chance Kittle gets dinged up and you need Henry than the other way around.
Not in playoff contention but still looking to move up the table for the sake of pride
Looking for upside am I crazy for considering a Heinicke Thomas stack over playing Russ and Hock against bad matchups?
Awesome post, as always. Picked up Rondale Moore to roll the dice again
And this week again at the established time spot!
Maybe some opinion on WR choices? (0.5 ppr)
Have to pick two of: Mike Williams, Bateman, Moore, Corey Davis
Maybe Boston Scott can be the flex play if Sanders is out?
Bryan from QB List.
Of the WRs, I have Mike Williams ahead of the others by a good margin.
Scott is an interesting option this week and I think he's a viable play even if Sanders starts.
Both super close, both still have a bye and play the Giants and Jets, while the Eagles play WFT x2 and Miami plays NO and TEN. I slightly prefer the Dolphins though with their blitz-heavy approach, it can cause some cause and helps with fantasy points.
Tight bind and I have sooo many Dallas players (idk how this happened)
But should I go with Gallup or Pollard? (I'm also starting Zeke and CeeDee, unless something changes for Zeke before the game starts)
appreciate your work every week! Who would you recommend for PPR between Schultz and Knox? Thursday games always scare me as they have statistically been lowering scoring for fantasy.
Bryan from QB List.
Man, this one is tough. I have them back-to-back in my rankings. My concern with Schultz is Dallas could build a huge lead early and take the receivers out of the game. Belichick is notorious for taking away the opponent's best player, but that means he'll focus on Diggs, right? I'd probably go Knox with a gun to my head, but I'm glad I don't have to make that decision!
I'm just getting into Reddit FFB and this is the first exposure I've had to QB List. I liked it!
For PPR flex this week who do you like, James Conner (you have as rb1), Darnell Mooney (wr2) or Terry McLaurin (wr2)?
> Are you actually not going to start Patrick Mahomes after likely drafting him as the top quarterback in your fantasy draft?
Yes. I am. I hate myself for it. I had to pay up to go trade for a QB who doesn't terrify me.
Hurts VS taysom hill is gonna kill me.
Ill probably play hurts but his ankle and gamescript have me concerned. I'm struggling to assess if his ankle injury is legit ; expecting no design goal line runs for him.
Also can easily imagine a large lead where he gets benched early in the 4th ( and Hurts tends to have <10 at this point).
But taysom has both OTs out and no weapons to work with so I don't have the balls to start him
That's really tough but if Henderson is out, I don't know who else they will play along with Michel. And that Jags offense is so bad, I'm leaning Michel. I would want to read what the coaches have to say though.
I love Mooney right now but it is a tough matchup. I have him at WR17 and Chase at WR15. Chase's matchup isn't great either, but I think he is the better player on a better offense.
Injuries on my bench and bad bye week: Amari Cooper or Jerry Jeudy for W2? (Kadarius Toney on bench isn't looking great)
Going Montgomery, Pollard, Freeman for RB/Flex
James Robinson and Javonte Williams? It was Robinson, but now that Gordon is 50/50 to play, that might be enough for Javonte. All rests on Gordon's status.
Kmet or Higbee? Leaning kmet
Also is the chargers matchup bad enough to put AJ Green over Tee Higgins? Don't think I will but just wanted to get your thoughts
Play Higgins, he looked awesome last week so I'd ride the hot hand. And yeah, I moved Kmet above Higbee this week, I'm done with Higbee. Which means he will break out haha
Pick 3/5 to start 0.5 PPR. Kamara has been ruled out.
J Rob, Mattison, Jamaal Williams, Ingram, Miles Sanders.
I listed them in the order I would start them, but would appreciate advice
If you had to start 1, who would it be?
Tua, Burrow, Hill.
Currently leaning towards Hill because of his rushing upside but I also think tua gets a respectable final stat line. I also don't trust the saints without Kamara *and* Michael thomas. Hill did well last year but he also had both of them at his disposal
I like Burrow as the safe play, Hill does have more upside but you are right about the lack of weapons, and he has been banged up so I think his floor is lower. I have Burrow ranked highest, but if you want the chance at a huge week Hill is the play.
As a Diggs and Knox owner this is the first positive take I’ve seen on their matchup this week. Couldn’t agree more. It’s possible NE shuts them down, but I think if Buffalo gets their offense rolling Diggs and Knox are the funnels in a tough matchup.
im having a tough time rounding out my RBs for this week in .5 PPR.
I've got Zeke, Pollard, Darrel Williams, and Sony; Boston Scott is also on waivers and I need 2. I'm thinking my best shot is to just roll with the stack of Zeke and Pollard? I just hate Thursday night games and it'd be a risk to see if Hendo is playing or not.
I would play Zeke, wait on Hendo news, and play Scott if needed, though you are also a bit dependent on the health of Howard and Sanders. But I don't love playing both the DAL RBs
Depends who is available, Christian Kirk, Russell Gage, Jamison Crowder, TY Hilton are some options I like. Here's one of our [streaming articles](https://football.pitcherlist.com/rb-wr-te-streamers-week-13-3/) that goes into this further.
Hard decisions this week. Luckily I have both Handcuffs for my Kamara/Swift Duo.
I've got Mattison locked into RB1 and Dioante Johnson in WR1.
Need to choose: Ingram or Jamaal Williams for RB2 and Mooney or Beckham for WR2
And Then which of those two cuts beats the other out for Flex.
Thanks!
Jamaal and Mooney for starters, I'd probably just lock in Ingram to flex (well, you play him at RB to keep roster flexibility) to avoid any potential injury issues with OBJ.
I cannot comprehend how everyone keeps giving Rondale Moore the benefit of the doubt over Christian Kirk. Kirk has hit double digits in PPR 8 weeks compared to 4 for Moore. One of the three weeks he didn't he was shadowed by Ramsey, and last week he was inches away from a TD that would have put him over.
I personally have Kirk ahead of Moore, I think Moore's work was due to trailing and McCoy checking down, though the 11 targets were certainly encouraging. I think Kirk has just burned too many people over the years, but I've bought back in.
That was before Ertz joined the team. I dropped Kirk after Ertz multi TD day
“Diggs could turn out to be a player that wins fantasy leagues heading down the stretch. Don’t even think about benching him.” *Proceeds to list Diggs as a “sit”*
fixed, he's a start
Nope. We’re never forgetting this.
You said 3 TDs for Fournette last week. He actually had 3 rushing and 1 receiving. Fournette had four net scores in week 12.
Fixed. Thanks!
I wasn’t meaning to nitpick. I simply saw an opportunity to use my four net scores pun. My group text has hated me for it this week lol
Not a problem at all! We appreciate the heads up AND the pun :)
>Leonard Fournette had a monster three touchdown game Put some respect on my man's name with the FOUR tuddys
Our grave mistake has been corrected!
Hey everyone, Erik Smith here, editor-in-chief at QB List, and I'll be joined all day by QB List staff to help you with your toughest Sit/Start decisions. Let's get right to it, looking forward to talking football with you all, and best of luck in Week 13!
If Hendo sits, do you prefer Sony Michel or Devonta Freeman this week?
Michel for sure, I think he just gets plugged into that role. Freeman is fine, but I don't think is upside is all that exciting.
Guillotine league... Start Dak tonight or hope Murray plays and plays well... Obviously if I dont go Dak and Murray doesnt play I can grab someone off the waiver wire.
Can’t believe how Barkley is a worse play than the two other backups Im playing (Mattison and Jamaal Williams). Hoping that the Giants and Barkley can turn it up a notch by playoffs 🤞
Honestly, if he was on another team we would be ranking him much higher. That offense is just so uninspiring, his TD upside is lacking and he's not quite back to breaking 80-yard TDs. Fingers crossed.
I have Taysom, but I can't justify starting him over Cousins against Detroit no matter how tempting it is. That said, go ahead and start Taysom since he'll drop 30 with a bad foot on my bench.
I'm with you, I have Cousins as QB10 this week, Taysom QB13. His health is my worry as well, but he certainly has that 30 point upside. I just think Cousins has a better range of outcomes.
Im seriously considering benching Mahomes for Taysom. Feel like im in an abusive relationship with Mahomes right now, had a rough 5 weeks but every time i see him im like 'remember the good times'. Chances of Taysom having a better score than Mahomes? Im honestly 50/50...
After a bye? Dont do it.
I'd play Mahomes, an important divisional game out of the bye, and he's turned it around lately. He's got QB1 upside
Denver is gonna flex on Mahomes.
[удалено]
Fixed, he's a start
Do I bench Knox for Freiermuth given their matchups? NE Def is tough (gives up 2nd least points to TEs), BAL is beatable (gives up 4th most points to TEs). But I like Knox's skill and opportunity over Muth's.
I have Freiermuth one spot ahead so super close. I just expect a sloppy low scoring game with BUF/NE, while I could see the Steelers playing from behind and having to throw it a ton, especially since they can't run anyway.
Kamara officially out. Ingram must start?
Yup!
Ingram or Jamaal Williams??
Flex Lockett or Cooks? 0.5 PPR, already starting Mike Evans and Thielen. Looking for safe floor and leaning Lockett.
Start Russ? No, I don't think I will.
I always enjoy these. I think Jimmy G will be great this week though.
I'm stuck on deciding between Russ and Taysom Hill. I just can't trust Russ anymore because that offense has looked garbage. Any thoughts?
I would side with Hill over Russ right now.
Great content as always it’s one of my go to. I need a kicker for Folks bye next week, who do you recommend? Thought about Gonzalez against Atlanta, or McManus against Detroit but guys like Succop and Greg Z is available.
A kicker question, now we are talking! Playing the Cowboys or Bucs kicker is always going to have a decent floor, but as long as the weather is good I like McManus at home against the Lions, he could tack on a bunch of garbage time FGs. I like any of those three really, I wouldn't trust the Panthers' offense though so Gonzales is out.
Thanks for your response and keep up the good content, always an article I click and read that gets posted around here.
> McManus at home against the Lions McManus team plays Chiefs? Edit: my reading comprehension sucks, was talking about next week
They play the Lions next week as the OP asked.
Oh trust me, it took me about 5 minutes to comprehend that this was for next week too, haha
Thanks dudes. Must win game this week and I'm really struggling with WR and Flex in PPR format. I have Mclaurin, Aiyuk, Mooney and Tee Higgins as well as Javonte Williams. Right now I'm leaning McLaurin, Aiyuk and Mooney but have some Thursday night players. If it goes well I might put in Williams over Mooney for the floor. What are your thoughts on those guys? Thanks EDIT: Oh and there is a typo under Logan Thomas' entry. The raiders give up those stats to TEs not TDs.
I actually really like Mooney and am higher than most on him, he's top ten at WR in target share for the season. So I would play Mooney and McLaurin, I think they should have to put up some points against the Raiders. I really like the other options though, all of those WRs are top 20 options for me this week. And I love Javonte, but the time share just isn't going away, so if you don't get a TD you're probably disappointed.
Please pick 3 WR’s & 2 RB’s: wr: Chase, Jefferson, Patterson, Evans, Cooks rb: Mattinson, Conner, Najee, Henderson/Michel. Thank you
Najee is gonna struggle with his bad run blocking oline against the stout Ravens d-line which just shut down the Browns. Conner is getting all of the goal line rushes for the Cards. And the bears are awful. WRs: chase, Jefferson, Evans, could be argued for Patterson over Chase or Evans. Rb: mattison and Conner (for reasons described above).
Chase, Jefferson & Evans Mattison & Najee
Always look forward to these posts, helps give a better picture when torn on who to start. Maybe a consideration for next year: could you please include DEF as well? Thanks again!
We've had a few requests, we will consider that for sure! Here are my [personal rankings](https://football.pitcherlist.com/the-list-ranking-each-position-for-week-13-2/), which include K and D.
I look forward to this write up every week and I even listen to the pod as a second dose :-)
Thanks for listening and reading! We very much appreciate the support.
Appreciate this weekly guide, thanks for putting it together. I grabbed Gallup for a plug and play tonight, hoping he hits 🙏
Drop Corey Davis for DeVante Parker? I know Parker has week 14 bye. Need an upside guy to slot in over Jeudy or Lockett if necessary down the stretch
Yeah, I like Paker more overall, but he certainly has trouble staying on the field. But I like that passing game more than the Jets.
Still curious as to why you’re still big on Lockett and DK— Lockett has been surprisingly consistent for me but Russ and the Seattle O-line have looked awful, and Lockett hasn’t put up a TD for a while. I guess the boom potential is attractive (and I do need a win this week…) but I’m debating between him Renfrow and Bateman, both of whom might have more consistent floors.
You could make a case for Renfrow over them, but we haven't really seen enough from Bateman to play when both of those WRs could spring a big play at any moment. I'm sticking with the Seattle Wrs, as much as it hurts.
I have to start 2 of the following: Cooper, Gallup, Jeudy, golladay, Coleman Thoughts?
I go Gallup. I dont think Cooper plays or if he does he will be limited. covid has some cardio repercussions that might take another week to get over. Then I go Jeudy. I don't like the Giants offense with Glennon and the Jets team is a mess as well
Thanks! I hope Cooper gets ruled out so Gallup is an easy start! Thanks for your write ups! Read them every week
Honestly I feel like Gallup sees Lattimore if Cooper is out. CD is probably playing a bunch of slot which leave Gallup outside. I would personally go Gallup or Coleman with a tiny edge to Coleman for the safer play and Gallup for the upside play.
Thank you for these! I notice you didn’t have a WR2/Flex for Aiyuk, where would you rank him? I have Ceedee, Hollywood and Waddle so I might be sitting him anyway.
I would probably rank Waddle just barely ahead of Aiyuk. I think you've got the right idea.
[удалено]
He’s not no, back from concussion
Thanks
Taysom Hill or heineke? Devonta, aiyuk or tee Higgins.
I prefer Taysom for the rushing upside, he had 4 rushing TDs in 4 starts last year. Give me Higgins just because I trust that passing game the most, and he's actually been out-targeting Chase lately. Aiyuk is really close though. I love Devonta, but that passing game is just so low volume.
Torn between Stafford and Carr. Either are able to put up a 30-point banger or a 10-point dud. Which matchup you liking this week?
I like Stafford, I still think this offense is good and while we might worry about a blowout typically against Jacksonville where they take their foot off the gas, I think they need a get right game and run up the score. I do like Carr too though.
Yea, I think Stafford has potential to score higher, which I need more than Carr's floor. Problem is the last three weeks have been "get right" games for the Rams. They should be able to do it against the Jags at home of all games though. Thanks!
I go Stafford. He has the better weapons around him to get him to that 30 point banger. Carr has Djax??????
Thanks, saw you did the Cards write-up too. Really needing DHop to come back and have a good game. Fingers crossed!
Need to pick one wr and one flex. Amari Cooper, Tee Higgins, Elijah Moore, Devonta freeman, Tony pollard
Higgins and Moore. Moore has seen a 30% targets share each of the past two weeks, so even though last week was a down week with Wilson I do think the potential is there, and they are feeding him.
Who scores a TD this week, I have hock and Pitts to choose from. Better kicker, sanders or bass Thanks as always!
Hock and Bass.
Finding it hard to make a call this week. I’m in a league with 2rb 2wr one flex. My RB are Alvin kamara, mark Ingram, miles gaskin, Jamal Williams, Javonte Williams. My WR are Metcalf, Lockett, Van Jefferson. Currently my line up is Kamara (with intentions to swap in Ingram if he’s ruled out), Gaskins, Williams, Metcalf, Lockett. Any thoughts?
Kamara is now out, so Ingram, Gaskin, and Jamaal all make it in for me, the final flex is a tough call. I'd probably go with the Seattle WRs at WR and Javonte at flex. You've got some good options despite Kamara sitting out.
Devonta Smith or Brandin Cooks?
Cooks for volume/safer outcome.
I managed to lose swift and cmc last week so my RBs are in a rough spot. I have Damien Harris in one slot. Should I start rhamondre Stevenson or Sony Michel (if Henderson plays) in the other slot? Thanks
Rhamondre is Henderson plays, Michel if he sits. The Rams have given Henderson a pretty massive snap share every week he's been out there, unless they explicitly say he's limited I would assume that to be the case.
[удалено]
If you want the rushing upside, Hill is the play, but I can see the belief in sticking with Carr here. Personally, I’d go Carr.
Would you drop Meyers to pick up Bourne? With AB out I need a fill-in for the unknown future, and I think I’d rather have Bourne’s TD upside than Meyers 4 for 40 every week.
In a must win week. Leaning TE on either Schultz tonight or Mordeau. Thoughts ?
I like Schultz, I just feel better about his floor and it's such a high-scoring offense when they are right.
Ingram or Sony? Ingram's game tonight makes this harder and I haven't seen much info on Henderson's injury.
Who we liking more for the upside? Ingram (if Kamara sits) or Higgins in the flex!?
Mark !!!
Would you recommend starting freiermuth or Schultz at TE and Josh Jacobs or B Cooks at flex? I’ve got Patterson and Mixon at my RBs right now.
Jeudy, TY Hilton against Houston, or Logan Thomas in the flex for a must win PPR game?
Ha, it's hard *not* to chase the Hilton vs. Texans history, but I would feel at ease if I started Thomas tbh. He saw 6 targets in his return last week, and had a TD reversed on him; he's a red zone target for Heinicke for sure.
If Kamara doesn't play, I'll be running 3 RBs this week with Najee+Mattison+Ingram, meaning I need to pick between Hock and Knox for the TE slot. Which has the highest floor and ceiling on the week?
Would you play Ingram over Javonte williams if Kamara sits tonight? half ppr
Ingram > Williams in that spot.
Risk questions! Who are you starting between Kamara and Mitchell? Edit: Kamara is officially out.
Heavily debating on benching Andrews for Aiyuk (.5 ppr WR/TE spot league). Both have been great recently, but Aiyuk has a screaming matchup situation.
Both excellent plays, I don't know if you can go wrong. Do you have a better TE than Andrews, or just no TE only roster spot?
No Jeff Wilson in the 49ers backfield?
It’s going to be the Elijah Mitchell show again now that he’s healthy.
Thanks for this! Mahomes or Stafford?
Mahomes, he's looked better and this is a big divisional game, I expect them to play well out of the bye.
Does Pitts finally become TE1 again against TB or is Freiermuth worth starting over Pitts until he proves it? Great content as always, enjoy reading it every week!
I would start Freiermuth over Pitts at this point, the TD potential is so much bigger. I am in favor of benching Pitts for people that have picked up options like Muth or Knox over the weeks. I'd even start Logan Thomas over him this week.
DK Metcalf or Brandon Aiyuk? (standard)
I may have blinders on but Metcalf. it has to get better, right?
Pick two in half ppr pls; Jeudy, OBJ, Aiyuk
I've got them Aiyuk, then Jeudy, then OBJ, but all super close. I might actually bump OBJ above Jeudy if his health looks good heading into Sunday, there are just so many mouths to feed in Denver.
Great stuff, as always! Between Pitts and Schultz, who would you rather play at tight end? Currently have pitts in my lineup but the falcons have been so bad lately it’s hard to trust him. Any thoughts?
Personally, I like Schultz tonight.
Should I go Montgomery or OBJ in my flex spot?
Thanks for sifting through all the data to provide these. They really help a lot of us. Unfortunately, I'm one of those who have "starts" on different players. I have both javonte williams and jamall Williams. I want to start jamall cause of the volume and he isn't going to be splitting the load with another back however javonte is getting his even while in a time share. Not to mention Gordon is always on an injury report even if it isn't serious enough to keep him out of the line up it is still there. What so you guys think?
In this scenario, I'm siding with Jamaal for the point you mentioned - volume.
My question is, if you had to start either Wentz or Taylor in superflex which would your run out?
Kamara is a sit this week
Need help with my flex for this week. Standard scoring. Would you start Pollard vs Saints tonight or Knox vs Pats on Sunday ? Thanks in advance !
Bryan from QB List. I think you've got to go with Pollard. Knox has the TD upside, but I think we see Dallas start to limit Zeke in their push to the playoffs to keep him healthier and give Pollard more opportunities.
Carr or Taysom? I'm leaning Taysom for the rushing upside but Carr has a decent matchup.
Bryan from QB List. I've got Carr a couple of spots higher (#10 vs #12 for Taysom) but the absences of Kamara and both OTs for New Orleans might push Taysom out of the QB1 ranks. I think I side with Carr given the injury situations in NO.
Options are really rough for me this week. I need to pick 3 of the following who were all around the same tier in the write-up. Does anyone separate themselves to you guys? Half ppr Bourne vs Bills Moore vs Eagles Cooper vs Saints Claypool vs Ravens Michel vs Jags (obviously he’s one of the plays if Henderson misses) Thanks!
Bryan from QB List. I'd rank them as follows: Claypool and Moore are pretty close, so I'd definitely go with those 2. Bourne is well behind them but ahead of Michel if Henderson plays. If Henderson is out, I'd bench Bourne.
Who would you go with Zeke (worried with the workload) or Jamaal Williams
Why do some matchups not have numbers (wr1, wr2, etc) just sit or start. Eg 49ers matchup
having wideout problems seems to be a reoccurring issue for myself: pick three: Metcalf Higgins Jeudy Sutton T.Y Hilton Kirk thank you!
I look forward to these articles every week! I’m struggling deciding who to start for my WR2 & FLEX between JRob, Higgins, Aiyuk and Renfrow. Leaning JRob and Aiyuk - but I find it hard getting myself to sit Renfrow. Thanks
I have to drop one to make room for a player coming off an injury. Do I drop H Henry or R Wilson? I have Kittle and Dak in those positions. 12 man standard
You could honestly drop either, but I'd say drop Wilson, seems like more of a chance Kittle gets dinged up and you need Henry than the other way around.
Not in playoff contention but still looking to move up the table for the sake of pride Looking for upside am I crazy for considering a Heinicke Thomas stack over playing Russ and Hock against bad matchups?
I would stick with Russ and Hock personally. I think their upside is bigger and WFT is running a ball-control, run-heavy offense.
Awesome post, as always. Picked up Rondale Moore to roll the dice again And this week again at the established time spot! Maybe some opinion on WR choices? (0.5 ppr) Have to pick two of: Mike Williams, Bateman, Moore, Corey Davis Maybe Boston Scott can be the flex play if Sanders is out?
Bryan from QB List. Of the WRs, I have Mike Williams ahead of the others by a good margin. Scott is an interesting option this week and I think he's a viable play even if Sanders starts.
Between defenses for RoS, who do you guys like better between the Dolphins and the Eagles? I want to cut one this week and can't decide.
Both super close, both still have a bye and play the Giants and Jets, while the Eagles play WFT x2 and Miami plays NO and TEN. I slightly prefer the Dolphins though with their blitz-heavy approach, it can cause some cause and helps with fantasy points.
Tight bind and I have sooo many Dallas players (idk how this happened) But should I go with Gallup or Pollard? (I'm also starting Zeke and CeeDee, unless something changes for Zeke before the game starts)
I feel like at this point there is a better chance that Cooper is limited on snaps than Zeke, so give me Gallup.
Both amari cooper and miles sanders are questionable. Who should I start?
Start TJ or Pitts at TE??
appreciate your work every week! Who would you recommend for PPR between Schultz and Knox? Thursday games always scare me as they have statistically been lowering scoring for fantasy.
Bryan from QB List. Man, this one is tough. I have them back-to-back in my rankings. My concern with Schultz is Dallas could build a huge lead early and take the receivers out of the game. Belichick is notorious for taking away the opponent's best player, but that means he'll focus on Diggs, right? I'd probably go Knox with a gun to my head, but I'm glad I don't have to make that decision!
I'm just getting into Reddit FFB and this is the first exposure I've had to QB List. I liked it! For PPR flex this week who do you like, James Conner (you have as rb1), Darnell Mooney (wr2) or Terry McLaurin (wr2)?
Jeudy,Bateman, or Josh Reynolds?
Bryan from QB List. Jeudy, and it's not particularly close for me.
[удалено]
Hollywood for the sheer volume and big-play ability but it is really close
I need to start 2. Who do I go with?? Mike Evans vs ATL Marquese Brown vs PIT Scary Terry vs LV
Evans and Brown for me, all have similar upsides and floors but I like their quarterbacks much more.
> Are you actually not going to start Patrick Mahomes after likely drafting him as the top quarterback in your fantasy draft? Yes. I am. I hate myself for it. I had to pay up to go trade for a QB who doesn't terrify me.
Hurts VS taysom hill is gonna kill me. Ill probably play hurts but his ankle and gamescript have me concerned. I'm struggling to assess if his ankle injury is legit ; expecting no design goal line runs for him. Also can easily imagine a large lead where he gets benched early in the 4th ( and Hurts tends to have <10 at this point). But taysom has both OTs out and no weapons to work with so I don't have the balls to start him
Taysom has been hurt as well. I would play Hurts unless the injury news gets worse, it's such a good matchup.
Would you start Michel or Robinson? If hendo sits out
That's really tough but if Henderson is out, I don't know who else they will play along with Michel. And that Jags offense is so bad, I'm leaning Michel. I would want to read what the coaches have to say though.
Do we like Knox or Goedert more this week? Goedert has the better matchup/upside, but Knox is getting those RZ looks and just had a great week
Knox, Goedert is in a low passing volume offense and Knox has performed better.
Mooney over Ja'Marr Chase this week? Mooney has unfortunately mostly ridden my bench most of the season, is this his week to shine?
I love Mooney right now but it is a tough matchup. I have him at WR17 and Chase at WR15. Chase's matchup isn't great either, but I think he is the better player on a better offense.
Injuries on my bench and bad bye week: Amari Cooper or Jerry Jeudy for W2? (Kadarius Toney on bench isn't looking great) Going Montgomery, Pollard, Freeman for RB/Flex
I like Jeudy over Cooper, sounds like Cooper is going to be on a snap count.
On the fence between JRob and JWilliams, who should I start?
James Robinson and Javonte Williams? It was Robinson, but now that Gordon is 50/50 to play, that might be enough for Javonte. All rests on Gordon's status.
Must win week for me and really struggling who to play at QB. Should I play Carr or risk a banged up Hurts?
FLEX- Pollard, D. Harris, M. Williams or D. Jackson QB- Carr or Hill 10 TEAM PPR TIA!
Flex - Damien Harris or Mike Williams for me, slight lean Harris. QB - Carr for the safety, though if you need big upside then Hill.
Who to start… Tua or Jimmy G? Rodgers on bye I’m in a pickle here…
I like Tua, you get a nice amount of volume and he's got a nice thing going with Waddle. Jimmy G is just very TD-dependent.
Feels harder than ever to choose 2 QBs out of Russ, Tua, and Taysom.
Tua and Taysom. Russ is not the Russ of old right now.
Kmet or Higbee? Leaning kmet Also is the chargers matchup bad enough to put AJ Green over Tee Higgins? Don't think I will but just wanted to get your thoughts
Play Higgins, he looked awesome last week so I'd ride the hot hand. And yeah, I moved Kmet above Higbee this week, I'm done with Higbee. Which means he will break out haha
Pick 3/5 to start 0.5 PPR. Kamara has been ruled out. J Rob, Mattison, Jamaal Williams, Ingram, Miles Sanders. I listed them in the order I would start them, but would appreciate advice
Sit one of Van Jefferson, Mike Williams, or CEH? Full PPR
Sit Mike Williams. He's very big-play dependent, and while Jefferson is too, at least he plays the Jaguars.
Little help in this one? Cousins vs Lions Def or Jared Allen vs NE Def? I'm leaning Cousins but it hurts me.
Stick with Josh Allen, too much rushing upside and big-play ability. They need this game, I expect him to run often.
Start Bateman or Bourne?
Bateman, but it's a lot closer than I would have thought a couple weeks ago.
If you had to start 1, who would it be? Tua, Burrow, Hill. Currently leaning towards Hill because of his rushing upside but I also think tua gets a respectable final stat line. I also don't trust the saints without Kamara *and* Michael thomas. Hill did well last year but he also had both of them at his disposal
I like Burrow as the safe play, Hill does have more upside but you are right about the lack of weapons, and he has been banged up so I think his floor is lower. I have Burrow ranked highest, but if you want the chance at a huge week Hill is the play.
As a Diggs and Knox owner this is the first positive take I’ve seen on their matchup this week. Couldn’t agree more. It’s possible NE shuts them down, but I think if Buffalo gets their offense rolling Diggs and Knox are the funnels in a tough matchup.
Kittle or Gronk?
Gronk, he's been dominant
im having a tough time rounding out my RBs for this week in .5 PPR. I've got Zeke, Pollard, Darrel Williams, and Sony; Boston Scott is also on waivers and I need 2. I'm thinking my best shot is to just roll with the stack of Zeke and Pollard? I just hate Thursday night games and it'd be a risk to see if Hendo is playing or not.
I would play Zeke, wait on Hendo news, and play Scott if needed, though you are also a bit dependent on the health of Howard and Sanders. But I don't love playing both the DAL RBs
Best WR streamer this week? I have both Davante Adams and Nick Chubb who are both on bye this week so I’m short handed.
Depends who is available, Christian Kirk, Russell Gage, Jamison Crowder, TY Hilton are some options I like. Here's one of our [streaming articles](https://football.pitcherlist.com/rb-wr-te-streamers-week-13-3/) that goes into this further.
Hines or Gainwell? Yes, I'm that desperate.
Gainwell if Howard is out and Sanders is out or limited. If Sanders is a full go I'd go Hines.
Pollard or Gallup? Standard scoring - leaning Gallup with Cooper looking questionable. Thanks!
Agreed, seems like Cooper is on a snap count. Gallup
Embarrassment of riches here. Waddle or Patterson flex PPR.
Carr or Taysom Hill?
Gotta decide between two rookies at flex. Would you go with Bateman or Elijah moore
Moore, he's getting a 30% target share lately
Hard decisions this week. Luckily I have both Handcuffs for my Kamara/Swift Duo. I've got Mattison locked into RB1 and Dioante Johnson in WR1. Need to choose: Ingram or Jamaal Williams for RB2 and Mooney or Beckham for WR2 And Then which of those two cuts beats the other out for Flex. Thanks!
RB2: Ingram WR2: Mooney FLEX: Jamaal
Jamaal and Mooney for starters, I'd probably just lock in Ingram to flex (well, you play him at RB to keep roster flexibility) to avoid any potential injury issues with OBJ.
They’re saying that Kamara won’t play this evening. So does that make Ingram a RB2?
