    Reggie Bush dealing with calf against Philly
    Frank Gore against Seahawks
    OR - Giovanni Bernard against the Colts

    Victor Cruz against SD
    OR - Michael Floyd against STL

    Alex Smith if you want to play it safe or RG3 if you want the upside play. truthfully I think Smith is a better play.

    Cruz is a no brainer. Have to play him. Even though Philly is playing great I think you have to play Bush especially in PPR

    Look at his and Floyds stats lately. Floyd has crushed him. It's not a PPR. Id still play him. I'm just worried about him being limited to reps with a pretty good back up in Bell, with his calf injury.

    Start Alex Smith. He's been over 20 points for two or three weeks in a row now. Picking him up in FA a couple of weeks ago probably saved my season because before that I only had Luck on my roster. Luck has been garbage and I don't need that in the playoffs.

    Flex options

    -Donald Brown
    -Marques Colston
    -Lamar Miller
    -Monte Ball
    -Kendal Wright

    Non ppr.

    Had Brown plugged in all week, then realized the Bengals haven't allowed a rushing TD since week 3.

    Cruz.

    I benched Floyd this week. He's got a minor injury. Plus, that SD secondary is porous.

    I'm forced to go with Brown but I think I'd pick Lamar Miller over him this week if I could.

    If AP doesn't go Sunday I'll need to start 3 of these 4....
    Gore vs tampa
    Rainey vs sf
    Rashad Jennings vs kc ( top 5 run d & ppg d)
    Jordan Todman (if MJD can't go) vs buffalo

    Leaning gore Rainey and Todman if MJD can't go. Hopefully AP plays...fantasy playoff time.

    Tough matchups. I'd probably go Gore, Rainey, and Jennings. KC does have a top 5 run-D, but they've given up 100 yds four of their last 5.

    Pitta.

    Tony Romo vs Green Bay in Dallas, or Big Ben vs Cincy's shorthanded but strong pass D in Cincy? I keep waffling back and forth.

    As we all know this is a big week, who should get the start?

    Rashard Mendenhall @ Tennessee or Jordan Todman home against Buffalo who is starting in place of the injured Mojo.

    Pitta..Miller is time sharing at best

    Romo
    Not very appealing options but Crabtree. IMO if Greg Jennings has Cassel starting thats a waiver guy who may be available and better then either of those. hes been good with cassel.
    Todman if he actually plays and MJD doesnt go. Buffalo gives up 112 YPG rushing.

    Real tight match-up, I need your help.

    Andre brown vs. Sea
    Steven Jackson vs. Was
    Ty Hilton vs. Hou
    Fleener vs. Hou
    Hartline vs Pats
    Nate Burleson vs. Bal

    I'm leaning towards Jackson but could easily change my mind

    Welll that didn't help lol. One for Ben two for Romo. Ugh. Got Ben in there for now. Will sleep on it. Everything points to Romo but he's been so disappointing the past few months.

    Will Jackson get a TD, think that's the question and with how bad the Redskins are there's a good chance he scores and has a good game. I'm a Hartline homer but seems the offense is doing better and we'll have to throw against the Patriots. Hartline should get at least 50 yards and could see an 80 yard game with a score. I guess maybe Jackson with standard scoring and Hartline if it's PPR.

    Andre brown is getting about 20 touches a games since he's been back. Tough match up but he could get heavy garbage time points and nyg run a lot inside the red zone.

    Hartline in a ppr would be my only other consideration

    It is ppr.

    I think brown will get some catches too. I think he might be my man

    Miller. Detroit has been very stingy to opposing TE's...I think Miller will be motivated after DTs performance

    Wright. Honey badger out will hurt secondary IMO.

    Mendenhall is usually good for a TD he doesn't deserve, but I'd gamble with the fresh legs of Todman.

    Stick with your lean, Skins already terrible on Defense and they have basically quit on Shannahan.

    Ok. So here are my quandaries this week.

    Victor Cruz vs. Seattle
    Brian Hartline vs. NE
    Michael Floyd vs. Tenn

    and

    Giovanni Bernard vs. Pitt
    Reggie Bush vs. Bal

    right now Im leaning toward Hartline and Bernard.

    *not PPR

    I believe Floyd is doubtful, I agree on BHart.

    Frustrating thing about Bush vs Bernard is Reggie is likely to play....but that's a whole extra day for another freak accident to put him on the pine AGAIN.

    Bush is a fantastic play vs the Ravens if he plays though. Maybe you should play it safe with Giovanni

    I would monitor the scoreboard all day Sunday and see what type of game you may need from one of them to advance. Assuming that's applicable, if it's 8pm and you just need decent production I'd go Bernard, if you find yourself in a rut and need a big game? Put in Bush IMO.

    Decimated with injuries but in the semi-finals of my playoffs... lost Arian Foster, Randall Cobb, Rob Gronkowski, Jordan Reed, and today Cecil Shorts is out.

    Would you guys start Marvin Jones or Cordarrelle Patterson at WR? Daniel Thomas, Lamar Miller, or Joique Bell at RB?

    Patterson for sure, with no RB to speak of I'm guessing Minny airs it out...

    RB is tough....

    For the fourth week in a row I have the most points scored in a 14 team league. This will be my third consecutive championship game (three different leagues), though I lost the last two so looking to get my first title next week.
