Murray v Texans
or
Tua v Raiders?
Who should I start?

This seems easy- Tua.
Raiders D (well ll the entire team actually) has been playing inspired since the coaching change.
I can understand the question.
But, this is one I don't think you should overthink. You go with the guy throwing to Reek, Waddle...not the one throwing to a TE and a WR1 who has been little more than a disappointing underachiever his entire career.
With my luck in this league I will start Tua and Murray will ball out and I will lose. That's pretty much what has happened to me this year with my players
I think it is a warranted debate due to the matchups but ultimately would still go Tua. When I started digging into the stats a bit I was shocked that I couldn't say Tua has the safer floor and higher ceiling. Still think he has higher ceiling tho, but he's had a few duds when they've scored a ton of rushing TDs this year.
The Raiders have been good against the pass statistically, but they've also faced below-avg competition at the position.
Zach Wilson, Mac Jones, T-Bag, TommyD were 4 of their last 5 matchups
Here i might go Stroud. Cardinals D isn't much too worry about and Stroud seems to be dealing no matter what receivers are active
Do the Dolphins let off the gas when they're ahead?With Tua, he'll probably still put up good numbers but since the Raiders are bad, there's a chance they get up a lot and start relying on the running game.
Stroud for me, Zona plays some of the most Cover 4 in the league, Tank and Schultz should feast and Nico is back this weekend
can't wait to see what Stroud can do with Nico, Noah, and Tank all healthy at the same time, push old man Rob Woods back to the bench
this question is both for this week and for Rest of Season
Purdy vs Tampa
Dobbs vs Denver
seems like an easy Purdy call with Tampa pass D being bad and Denver's pass D actually playing pretty good since the Bears fiasco
