Here's hoping that Cutler hurts himself in practice this week and I can ride McCown into the finals of my money league. If they start Cutler, I'll be forced to go back to RGiii. Or look to the waivers for someone else like:

Campbell
Fitzpatrick
Tannehill
Henne
Glennon
EJ Manual
Geno Smith

Out of those Campbell may be a solid play. He has something like 100 passes in the last two games as Cleveland cannot run the ball. Don't play rg3 - Shannahan is close to benching him.

I'm in the 2nd round in 3/4 of my money leagues - but I just lost Gronkowski in one of them. That flipping sucks. The 4th money league I'm in I got hosed with injuries.... And spiller's epic bust. I missed playoffs by 8 pts overall in the tiebreaker.

Best Flex Option for this week:

RB Pierre Thomas (NO) at StL - StL giving up 5th most fantasy points to RBs the last 5 weeks
WR Marques Colston (NO) at StL - 125yds and 2 TD last game, StL giving up 8th most fantasy points to WRs the last 5 weeks
RB Jordan Todman (Jax) vs Buf - MJD likely out, Todman to start, Buf giving up 8th most fantasy points to RBs last 5 weeks

Depends on two things IMO:
1. Is it PPR?
2. Do you need a home run or safe points?

For non PPR and/or safe points I'd play Pierre Thomas. He's probably good for at least 8-10 pts in a non PPR format. Sproles is seeing less touches.
If you need a homerun possibility (other guy is heavily favored) and is PPR I'd play colston. He could bust, but he had the better shot at a 20+ pt day.

I personally can't trust Todman.

Overall, I'd lean Pierre Thomas, because I favor guys I *know* will touch the ball a lot. Receiving targets in NO are diverse. Colston has been hot but then again graham could vacuum in all the td throws.

I agree with @DA-Bucks - Pierre Thomas

my worst fear came true, RGiii benched and Cutler named starter. Now with one game to go to get to the finals I'm left starting:

Campbell vs Chicago
Tannehill vs New England
Matt Flynn @ Dallas
Cousins vs Atlanta
Keenum vs Indy
Manuel @ Jax



basically a shit sandwich
