I have to play Allen against Miami for sure. As for my other, it's between Bryant and Cobb and I chose Cobb atm due to the matchup. Big Ben is at home, but vikings might be a tougher matchup even there and I don't want to stack up on him and Bryant both.

I don't have faith he does well at all, but I have better faith in him than Matthew Stafford playing in NJ in primetime.

Cobbs an easy choice for me in what should be a fun up and down game

I have Bryant too, Im stuck where i need to start him, but if I had my choice, Id wait to see him have a decent game before I used him

would hate having bryant on the bench for one of those 150yd 2TD games though.
I think I'd have to keep him in my flex and play safer floor options at WR1/WR2, if roster is built to handle that strategy.
Perfect high ceiling flex play, imo

if there was ever a questionable time for me to stick with him in the lineup, it would be against a team with a good #1 CB, while PIT is at home.

This weekend fits the bill for me, personally, but def understand the reservations. History would have me betting on PIT scoring more than 1 offensive TD at home, regardless if they beat Vikes or not.

Well, two years ago, Bryant struggled against good secondaries. Teams tend to put their best corners on Bryant instead of AB or put it on AB and double up on Bryant(it varies but one gets more coverage). That would be the case on a normal week, but this is a short week and most defenses do not play well on short rest after playing the saints. So yeah Big Ben could have a big game, but Bryant's issue right now is his slow start.

AB is probably going to get Xavier Rhodes for most of the game, and Bryant will get a combo of Newman and Waynes, with double coverage from Harrison Smith.

I have noticed multiple times that you come here, ask a question for advice, then you argue with the advice givers about why your original line-up decision is right. Why even ask if your not going to be open minded on what others say?

I did listen. It was 50/50 on who to play. I went with Cobb. Cobb got hurt though but he was on pace for a big game. Bryant though did score, but the rest of my team, including Allen, my RBs, and defense are stepping up for me. WR2 is not something I am going to stress too much.

Doesn't matter I had an easy win. There was no clear cut answer on this as I said. No one had a valid reason for playing Bryant and others had valid reason for not playing him. Even the vikings fan(is that noseferatu btw?) said Brown would be doubled and Bryant would get Rhodes. I was aware Bryant could do well but it was hard to know and I went safe over upside.
