Anyone care to weigh in on Wilson vs Carr this week?
I made the mistake of playing Wilson last week, because he was running better and it was against Tampa, but he did not reward me. I have very little faith in Seattle.

Buuuuut

Carr is against a pretty good defense with Buffalo, whereas Carolina's defense is pretty poor.

I'd go with Carr as I don't have trust in Wilson either.

Edit: Then I don't know if you should trust me as I started Kaep over Carr myself this week.

Asking again this week.
Carr or Wilson? Oakland was pretty bad against KC last time they played, and the Seahawks have a decent match-up against Green Bay*.

Anyone have an insight for me on KC team defense?
Good secondary?

I'm on the fence as well...deciding whether to start Crabtree, Steve Smith Sr., or Dion Lewis as a flex. It's going to be fairly cold in KC as well. Tough choice.

My guess is you can't really go wrong with Carr or Wilson this week. But if you want consistency I'd go with Carr.

I'm on the fence on starting Tampa D or Kansas D this week.

Bit of a dilemma. I have Amari Cooper currently in my lineup, but Arrowhead is supposed to be frozen solid and brutally cold conditions tonight. Should I swap out for Brandin Cooks, who's in Tampa Bay?

Cooks has been dangerously unreliable of late, but I'm afraid the frozen turf will make this TNF matchup a low scoring, pound the running game type of affair.

I still think the Raiders offence will be fine tonight. They'll get Cooper matched up against Gaines or Nelson and he'll get open for a few yards.

Playing in the cold has never stopped good players like Rogers and Brady from racking it up. It won't stop Carr and Cooper.

Any fantasy gurus feel like giving me some advice on whether to start Prescott or Manning? Daks been good to me but the Giants don't give up much against quarterbacks.

Finished 1st for the 2nd straight year, 11-2.

Enjoying a low stress bye week this week, then I've got the winner of the 4/5 game in Week 15.

QB - Newton @WAS / Mariota @KC (thoughts?)
RB - Devonta Freeman vs SF
RB - Jay Ajayi @NYJ
WR - Julio Jones vs SF
WR - Brandin Cooks @ARI
TE - Travis Kelce vs TEN
FLEX - Tevin Coleman vs SF

Bench - Jordan Matthews @BAL, DeVante Parker @NYJ, Willie Snead @ARI

K - Justin Tucker vs PHI
DEF - Buffalo Bills vs CLE

Any thoughts or input?

Looks like Carr was the wrong choice.

I think Watkins has the highest upside there as long as he doesn't have a setback with his foot, which always seems like a worry.
I'm playing him this week, as I need to swing for the fences after a poor qb performance.

I like Watkins for his upside as well, but Rawls for his floor. Seattle/Green Bay game might have a lot of snow which should lead to more run plays. I'd lean towards Rawls. Tough call.

Thanks for the input gents! I'm gonna go with the gut and play Watkins. I'm thinking buffalo will be playing from behind and forced to open it up.

Good luck to everyone this week.

I felt that way most of the season, but I just derped my way to the lowest seed in our playoffs with a 6-7 record and my opponent, who has rolled over 100 points for weeks has 40 with only Brady left to play, while I've got 80 and still have Tucker left.

Fantasy is a fickle mistress.
