@SmokingMonkey this is going to come down to the wire.

This Bears defense is legit.

Thought you would have won your match by now with Gurley and Zuerlein

How painful.... I got what i needed in a Face Loss...Had a nice size lead going into the Sunday night game... and had to see the Bears nearly ruin my chances to win.... Now i need a BUST game from Adam Thielen... the most consistent WR of the year....

Don't know what to do here.

In my big money league, I need some help. Terribly times duds from
Gurley and Ertz have left me in a bad spot.

Here is how League scoring works:

QB- 1 point for 30 yards passing, 4 point passing TDs, -1 for TOs
RB/WR- 1 point for 15 yards, full PPR

I am up by almost 11 points. He has Cousins. I have to play either Carson or Baldwin at FLEX.

I will need a solid game or a Cousins dud. My gut says CARSON is safe for a few points, but I am nervous he will need a TD to outscore Cousins who I think should get about 20.

So, should I gamble on Baldwin's health or play CARSON in a tough matchup?

@tlance i think its really hard to gamble on baldwin with his health. He has limited targets this year, 2 touchdowns. one game over 10 poitns in standard scoring. hell one week he had a TD he still only had 8 points..........

only eclipsed 5 catches twice.......
4 games under 5 catches
3 games with 5 catches

not world beating....vikes secondary is ok, althought lockett likely draws howard

I know.

Baldwin not a great play.

Neither is Carson.

I was expecting to need a couple sure points. Now I need 10.

Because my opponent got 5 TDs and I got 0

Let me state this first. By my many posts , my choices on wrs has not been great. Maybe ask @TKOSpikes dudes a savant

But I think I’d ask myself whose more likely to get 40 yard and a td

FWIW in ppr carson has cleared ten in 6/10 games he’s played

Baldwin
4/9

It’s a real tossup. Baldwin has the chance with catches, but how healthy is he, sucked last week and was hurt, didn’t practice all week

Carson seems like the play.

That is a tough one. I go by the theory of; when in doubt, go with the RB. But in full ppr, it sure makes it closer considering Carson doesn't catch the ball. ... I think Carson has the TD advantage, but Baldwin would have the non-TD pt advantage (given your scoring). So, if you think you need a TD, Carson. Safe play for pts, Baldwin.

Baldwin gets my vote. Xavier Rhodes isn't on the injury report this week and he's going to have Lockett on most plays. Baldwin will avoid him and should get more looks this week. It's going to be tough for Carson to run the football. Since it's PPR, it's much more likely that Baldwin will have 5 catches for 50 yards than that Carson will have 100 yards rushing and I think it's about equal as to which one might score a touchdown so I actually think Baldwin is the much safer play. If Rhodes wasn't playing I would go the opposite way.

need to take this into consideration:
A source told ESPN's Adam Schefter they "wouldn't think" Doug Baldwin (hip, game-time decision) will play Monday night, but they are "sure he will try."
Baldwin has seemingly been on the wrong side of a game-time decision all week, but the Seahawks are going to give him all the way up to warmups to prove he can play.
