Thinking about benching DJax against Seattle. Don't love my alternative options as they are all questionable at best. Either running with McKinnon tonight in the slop vs the plodder taking away his touches. Or Taliaferro fighting for touches against the Colts. Looking over the WW options at WR it's not looking like a viable option at all. So McKinnon or bust? :noidea:

Seems like a logical gamble to me. I have to assume the Colts will beat the Ravens, teh question is by how much and how fast will the Ravens be in pass mode? the sooner that happens, the less Talia touches the ball. McKinnon could be on the verge of something special..or he could've been a flashin the pan..I like the first one's chances.

I'm also benching DJax (for Torrey), so I would also be in favor here. I'm just not sure the conditions tonight are a positive for the shifty McKinnon. Go with Taliaferro and hope there's some goal line stuff. Flacco is generally below average on the road, so maybe they lean on the run game?

I'm avoiding CP in one of my leagues for T Williams due to the weather and Ponder effect. The one league I have to play CP and Cobb tonight could get dicey.

I think people might be selling McKinnon short in the power running game - he's a damn strong little SOB. On the other hand that's where they can get Asiata his touches, so McKinnon may not get the opportunities to show what he can do there.

I am being slightly facetious here, but it does kinda make sense - Asiata might be at the top of his game plodding in the slop.

I played D Jax and had him Wilson and Lynch pull out a big victory tonight by 28 points. Was a huge dog and figured I was toast so I wasn't even worrying about that team. Now we move to 4-1 =). Just need Shady to get his act together and Gordon to lay off the weed and we should be set.

Good stuff man. I ended up pulling out the win against this guy that had morris, Edelman, bengals
Defense going while I was up by only 4.5 points. Ended up pulling out the win somehow :)
