B Pierce vs CIN
A Dixon vs NYJ
T. Kelce vs STL
Malcom Floyd vs DEN

I need to at least decide for or against Floyd by tonight. I'm leaning Kelce, with Dixon and Floyd just tailing. Pierce is kind of a TD or bust at this point, so probably scratch that. I just felt it was worth mentioning because Cincy has allowed a lot of rushing touchdowns in the red zone, where Pierce gets his carries.

Any thoughts are appreciated. It's a pickle… probably just dumb luck. One of them will probably have a good day. Hopefully I plug in the right one.

Would be nice if Fred didn't go down on Sunday. Ugh...

I think you are on the right track. ....

Here is my rule... when unsure, choose the player that is MOST likely to have a HUGE day...

Malcolm Floyd is the most likely to hit the 100 mark... So I would pick him...

 

[TKOSpikes]

I think I'd go Floyd too.

 

[MilkSpiller22]

here is my other rule:

When unsure pick the player that you will be able to watch play... Thursday night football will be more fun to have a player to root for...

 

[HizzleRocker]

Rivers and Manning has the potential to be a shootout. At worst if Denver starts scoring quick, Rivers will be airing it out. For that - I would go Floyd. Dixon would be my 2nd choice.

 

[richig07]

Well, good thing I didn't go Floyd.

I have a couple of days to decide between Kelce and Dixon. The only thing that scares me about Dixon is Bryce Brown getting a few touches and getting hot. Then taking over.

Here is my rule:

When on doubt, go against Thursday night. Clearly start your studs, but fringe players are best left on Thursday benches.

I agree with Kelce

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Kelce would be my choice…

Too many cons against Dixon…
1) Brown WILL split carries, regardless.
2) As you said, Brown could get hot and take over.
3) Even if Dixon gets the carries, he still faces one of the tougher run defenses in the league. (8th ranked run D, but IMO they are better than that. They would be top 5 if Oliver hadn't skewed that stat lol)
4) He's on the road, and the Jets always play tough at home.

And the Jets are also desperate. As a Bills fan, I'm very nervous. None of your choices are guaranteed the 5 Floyd got you. And the fact you're contemplating a TE over two RB explains that. All are TD dependant, and with Pierce coming off back to back games, I'd be weary of betting on three. Between Dixon and Kelce, I'll take Kelce... just hope his ribs hold out whole also hoping for more snaps than he's been getting.

Also toss in the fact that its a divisional matchup… The Jets almost beat the Patriots last week… I would be very worried as well if I were a Bills fan
