Meh, too late now anyway

Stuck with Sanders and sat Bennett. May regret it but oh well.

My two QBs are philip rivers and jameis winston. Winston is playing at home against the saints and rivers is on the road against the panthers.

Chargers playing an Early Game traveling from the west coast.

I am leaning towards winston against a crappy saints defense in Tampa.

4 leagues. 3 playoffs. Dogfish, I think you know which league I didn't make it in.

First playoff game was this weekend in a money league. I sat Green Bay for Indianapolis strictly for the Brock Osweiler factor.

Indy got 4:44
Green Bay got 17.94

I lost 158.00 to 149.49

My other money league, I came in second place in the standings (11-3) with the most points by far. The guy that came in first knows NOTHING about football. He finished 12-2 and may win the whole thing.

Moral of the story: Don't think. FEEEEEL.

Oh with that said, semi-final game. Drew Brees @ Arizona or Marcus Mariota @ Kansas City? I put Mariota in now but I don't know if I'll stick with it. Might as well ride with what brought me to the dance. Decisions!!

But you still have your most important semi versus a Shark

I have a question.

Why did Sharkie beat me so bad.

Here's a weird scenario. I'm in my job's money league and made it to the finals. I'm going against a guy who knows nothing about football, much less any sport. He just filtered stats and guessed during the draft and went by projection. He made 4 transactions/moves the entire season. The guy he beat in the playoffs made 57.

Now do I start:

Emmanuel Sanders or Rishard Matthews
Tyler Eifert or Martellus Bennett
Denver or New England

I'm going with the yellows but I don't want to overthink it because my opponent doesn't think about it at all.

Who are they playing against? Scoring?
Without knowing those I cannot give you an accurate assesment.

My shots in the dark are:
Sanders
Eifert
Denver

Sanders @ KC, Matthews @ Jacksonville
Eifert @ Houston, Bennett home vs the Jets (this one is very debatable)
Denver @ KC. New England vs the Jets

Sanders- I think the broncos throw a ton and since he didnt get much last week he is going to bitch some and gets some balls thrown his way.
Eifert- He is the redzone king and with houston locking down the wr, I think Eifert will be the main target. Marty (who i have to start) may see some but you guys probably roll through the jets not leaving a lot of passes for him to catch.

Pats D- Its the jets- nuff said

Your starting WRs are as solid as anyone could ever hope to have. The reason I switched to keeper leagues was that I got Antonio Brown early in his rookie season & wanted to keep him throughout his entire career. So I joined one of your keeper leagues, & guess who was already on the roster? It was literally a dream come true

Both of your starting RBs are on teams that are going to be getting blown out a lot, & will therefore be getting selfed early on in the 2nd half of a good chunk of their games. That said, Howard is one of my keepers. I suspect that you'll be kicking Langford to the curb before mid-season because the Bears might want their 4th round pick, Tarik Cohen, to supplant him as the #2.

Hopefully you won't get too unlucky with Luck's injury, but just remember what happened when the Colts went through this exact same situation during Manning's last year on their roster. Could it happen to them again with back-to-back franchise QBs? I think you're playing with fire by not having another viable option at QB2 with all the uncertainty involving Luck's recovery.
