I've been cruising, 12-2, in my big $$ League..thanks in large part to Mahommes and Tyreek. We play into week 17. I find it hard to imagine Mahommes and Hill being in for long, if at all, that final week, so I'm looking for edges anywhere possible.

I currently have the Rams and the Jets D/ST's, and they can go extremely negative..like 30+ pts negative.
Cowboys are sitting out there, and have really come on lately, extremely good pass rushers.



Jets play Houston, GB, NE
Rams play Eagles, ARZ, SF.
Dallas plays Colts, TB, NYG.

What would you do? Who would you start each week? I might be able to drop add multiple times, but, chances are someone would grab the one I drop..just how it always works. I can only afford to carry two, at most.

I'd probably stick with the Rams for most weeks. But dropping the Jets to get Dallas does give you better options week to week than keeping the Jets.

This week: Yams (Iggles don't have the firepower to stand toe-to-toe)
Week 16: Yams (1 job, contain DJ if he plays)
Week 17: 'Boys (Rams are likely resting their starters this week)

10 teamed, and up till the Saints game, they hadn't really done all that well in our scoring system. Basically you gotta have a sub 24 points allowed and a handful of sacks/ints/FR's to score more than 8-10..gotta score a defensive TD or return to be impressive at all, they hadn't been generating turnovers or scoring at all. Think everyone is still leary

drop Jets D and add the 'boys D

like the rams playing against inferior NFC West teams, and with last week's loss to da Bears, they need to keep winning for home field adv

well thus far this all confirms my initial thoughts..drop the Jets, grab the 'Boys.

Now its just a matter of starting the right one each week. Honestly not too terribly concerned until wk17. I'm on a bye this week (still accumulating points, can't take it too easy), and both my potential opponents are limping to the finish line, and haven't been big scorers all year. Long as Showtime and Hill are good to go, I'm pretty set.

A little surprised that you need us to tell you to drop the Jets and pick up Dallas, but 'tis the season for overthinking...

Yes, drop NYJ and grab the Cowboys D. Worry about who to start and when to start them after you have all the info. I can't see any situation where you would start the Jets over any of them, though.

I wouldn't say I NEEDED it, just confirming I wasn't being a homer by thinking it was a good idea :)

I understand. Like I said... over thinking is strong this time of year. It is a long off season.

After the game tonight, looks like they will need to play the entire game in week 17 to clinch the west and/or #1 seed in the AFC

So how did you do this week @TREFF ? Hopefully you ignored everyone and didn't play the Rams D lol. They looked awful last night. Good thing you are on bye!

Well, if Cam can keep up the shit play, and Kamara can come up with an above average-great second half, I COULD pull it out, but I'm not banking on it
