Kendall Wright, I guess.
i had him in the starting lineup without a second thought, but now i'm wondering...
Playing anyone against the Raiders is seductive, especially running backs. They'll let anybody run all over them. But they also like to score a lot of points. They're at home. They just got crushed by a division rival. They'll be looking to bounce back in a big way. All of which is to say that it might be a high scoring game, in which case, the Jags are probably playing from behind and throwing more.

And the Jags are so terrible at every level. Inconsistent and untrustworthy. Plus Ivory has Yeldon to worry about. Which one of those guy's gets the most opportunity? I get why you're thinking it over. And on paper I don't hate the match up at all. But... I just don't like any of the Jacksonville RBs.

Having said that, 93% of experts on Fantasy Pros say that you should start Ivory.
i forgot to mention my league settings - jaguar rb's get 43 points per touch
Ah. Well in that case.... why are we even having this discussion.
i'm not sure because i just dropped ivory so it doesn't matter anyway

I can't imagine any situation where I'd drop a player who gets 40+ points per touch.

Soooo... in my shitcan league I made a last minute decision to bench Winston in favor of a different QB option. (As you'll recall, Big Ben is hurt on my bench). Anybody care to take a guess who I started instead of Winston. :|

I know. It was so stupid. I just panicked. I got suckered by Hoyer's numbers the last few weeks and the Packer's depleted secondary. I thought it was gonna be a fantasy bloodbath. This is why you don't go chasing the numbers, kids. I fucking knew better.

Meredith was poised for such a huge game. No one's gonna blame you for having him in there. And Cobb was a surprise. Good move on your part.

I just picked up Kenny Britt in my shitbowl league. Wing and a prayer time. He'll start as my WR 3. Fingers crossed.

My wife's team is up against Stafford this week. So, I guess he gets you enough for you to win but not enough for her opponent to win.
