Ongoing NFL Fantasy Football Thread

[legend]

I've been disappointed in Decker the past few weeks. Ever since the turf monster episode, Manning doesn't seem to throw his way as much with Thomas and Tamme starting to get the bulk of the throws and Stokes doing his bit as well.

 

[abpanther]

Yeah i have noticed that

Whats Stokleys status for tomorrow?

Surely Decker should cash in against that terrible Raiders D

 

[Raider_69]

I think Thomas has just been the hot hand and Tamme is coming into his own as a player

Decker will get his looks. Especially with the weeks Thomas has had, i expect a lot of attention to go to him and free up some one on ones for Decker to win easily V Oakland

 

[zombie jesus]

Stokley is questionable, his targets go straight to Willis.

Didn't watch last weeks game but we all know that Tampa secondary is shite, Peyton could have probably thrown to whoever he liked, everyone would have been open fairly regularly, interestingly he chose to give Tamme double his usual looks.

What that says to me is Decker is either.... a) Not getting open enough for Manning to hit him, and/or b) Manning doesn't trust him even if he is open. That's bad.

 

[abpanther]

Yeah and thats my concern with Decker, his production has been tapering off thr past few weeks so.wondering if i should sit him this week

 

[legend]

Sokley is out this week so you would think as a result Decker would get more looks but he has dropped some sitters.

Decker may end up being a good slot receiver and the Broncos draft a good WR to compliment Thomas.

 

[legend]

I know this sounds like a very strange question, but would you star Andrew Luck (v Ten) over Peyton Manning ( v Oak)? Manning never throws more than 300 yards and three td's where as Luck could throw 400 yards and four td's and is going up against a soft team in Ten at home.

Projections have Luck scoring ten more fantasy points than Manning but this is a playoff game and could be the difference in me winning and losing.

 

[dogslife]

Luck has burned me a couple of times this year. That being said I've gone with him this week anyway over Eli who should torch the Saints D. 50/50 on Peyton though, Oakland's D is shite

 

[zombie jesus]

I'd go with Luck, they have similar floors, but Luck has the potential to put up a big score more than Manning.

Tennessee more likely to push Indy too, Locker just needs to find his accuracy more often.

 

[legend]

Ten has an awful pass defence though. Manning plays it safe once he knows the result is in the bag and hands off to the RB for the entire fourth quarter unless Oak make a game of it, which I just don't see happening. I'm expecting a 280-300 yard game, three TD's and no INT's.

Luck on the other hand. I'm expecting four TD's, 350+ yards and two INT's. Hilton should get 100 yards and Ballard will get some yards too.

I'm leaning towards Luck but time is running out.

 

[Raider_69]

Luck, the match up is great and Luck is already a top 10 fantasy QB. He'll do well here

 

[legend]

Thinking the same mate. I can't believe I'd be dropping Manning though. Unheard of but I don't have much choice unfortunately.

 

[zombie jesus]

Bryce Brown or David Wilson in non ppr, banking on Bradshaw being out or limited if I go with Wilson, but after Brown's effort last week I'm thinking of taking it, Bengals D is far from bad.

 

[Raider_69]

Brown faced the #1 Run D
He's facing #10 this week

Wilson is the go only if Bradshaw cant go. His touches and yards came in garbage time. Brown will do him unless Bradshaw cant go.

 

[zombie jesus]

Yeah, Cinci has been good against the run lately too, but their schedule has been piss weak. Forgot Brown plays tomorrow, will stick with him, thought I would have a few more days to hear where Bradshaw is at.

 

[abpanther]

Ok im in a dire need at TE

Standard scoring, no PPR, pick 1

Finley @ CHI
Lewis @ MIA
Watson v WAS
Harbor v CIN

Thanks

Finley for me... he's boom or bust. But Lewis is a hack, Watson is unlikely to put points up. Harbor is not a bad start. Foles seems to like going to him in the end zone. Good chance if foles throws a passing td that it's going to be Harbor on the end of it

 

[zombie jesus]

Watson for me, Washington give up the most points to TEs by a fair margin.

 

[abpanther]

Yeah I've been riding Finley for a while now with little benefit

Watson seems like the play to me, but Harbor really intrigues me, particularly considering his production last week with Celek out.

Raider, do you think he will be targeted plenty by Foles tonight?

 

[Raider_69]

I dont think he'll see a lot of targets, Avant, Maclin and Cooper will get the most looks, as well as Brown as a safety valve, but i do think Foles feels very confident going to him in the red zone. Big body who can win the match ups and get to the corner on play action. The eagles are running a lot of two TE sets in the red zone trying to make life easier for Foles. So i do think he's a good TD chance.

I think he ends the day with 3-4 catches, 30-40 yards and a TD
