It’s true they’ve not been up to expectations (I know - I have Jordy) but I still think they’ll pull out of it.

Minnesota looks great and GB not, but the difference between them is basically just the 3-point win in Minn; flip that game and they’re both 4-1.

In my money league where I’m in second place, Mariota or Winston? I’m leaning towards Winston since I hate Thursday games that usually end in low scoring sloppy football.

Mariota or Winston in my money league. I’m leaning towards Mariota since he has been hot recently, but I like the Winston matchup better. Tennessee has Green Bay at home and Tampa Bay has the Bears, also at home.

Ok, it’s crunch time in my money league and NFL bye weeks are over.

PPR league, we start 2 RB, 2 WR, and a RB/WR flex

RBs:  
David Johnson  
Devonta Freeman  
Carlos Hyde  
Jay Ajayi

WR:  
Julian Edelman  
Emmanuel Sanders  
Brandon Marshall  
DeVante Parker

Tentatively, I’ve got Johnson and Freeman as my RBs, Edelman and Sanders as my WRs, and Ajayi as my flex.
