Alright peeps, help me out here

Same league as the one I just mentioned with my TE situation, no PPR, big semi-final game, pick 5 from the following:

Greene @ TEN
Lynch @ BUF
Murray v PIT
Britt v NYJ
Decker @ BAL
Hilton @ HOU
S.Johnson @ SEA
Nicks @ ATL

My picks are in bold but I'm kinda petrified of starting Greene in a playoff game

Advice??

I like Murray full stop
I think he's good enough to carve out 100 yards and a TD, his rpc average wont be pretty but he will get the 100 and td imo.

id drop Greene for Murray.

Ultimately i guess id probably stick with Britt. Hilton could be a big scoring benchy though

We do also get points for return yardage which helps Hilton

I don't like Britt against Cromartie and the Jets, but he did put up 8 grabs and 100+ yards last week.

I like Hilton but he's the 2nd or 3rd target on that offense, he could very easily put up very little.

Hard picking from those guys, the problem with Murray is the Steelers corners were horrendous last week, Cowboys will most likely be able to pass at will.

Charles has been the only guy allowed to chip away a 100 yard 1 TD game this season, McFadden got those stats too but did it on the back of a 60+ yard run at the start of the game, got another 40-50 after that.

Is Taylor still out for the Steelers?

Yeah I dunno, Murray has been pretty good when playing but the Cowboys Oline is horrendous and the Steelers D is awfully stout.

Greene has a nice match up against the Titans D but he's sharing carries with Powell.

I could also only start Lynch and then go with 4 WRs, Britt, Decker, Nicks and Hilton.

How likely do you think it is that he gets a TD against the Steelers?

I dunno, arrgghhh!!

Taylor is out, and his back up is out too. Woodley is back though and Polamalu, Harrison and Clark are all in, those 4 have hardly played a snap together this year.

50/50 on getting a TD, can't do much better than that advice haha, if he gets more than 80 yards he will have done well. If the pass D holds up like it did last week then you would expect the Cowboys to get a decent amount of red zone time, so he could get some good opportunities.

I think Greene and Murray probably both start, both will get around 20 carries, that's opportunity to do something at least, WR's could go missing.

Greene has actually been fairly productive lately, and the Titans D stinks, that's why I was leaning towards him in the first place.

Greene has done well against the shit teams, when he has failed it has been against PIT, SEA, MIA etc, decent rush D. He did well against poorer teams like BUF and IND.

I've plugged in Weeden in the Dirty Dozen, hope the match up serves me well.
Got Romo in another league and have Kap on my bench too, don't trust him though, Belichick could conjure up a scheme and have him bewildered most of the game.
Tannehill in the Loving league.

Gonna be fun.

I started Freeman in front of Kap in one league, Stafford in front of P. Manning in another.

Thank goodness my other selection have paid off and kept me in the contests

3 championship games today, lost them all quite comfortably.

The Young Ones league is my last bastion of hope...

Lost my final today in one of the last plays. He had Kap. I was ahead by .6 and then he threw that touchdown pass on 4th and long, f**k.
