Should I play Bradshaw or Forsett as a RB this week? I'm losing bad and need 100+ yards out of a RB to have a chance at winning. We have a 20pt bonus for 100 yds

i like forsett to hit 100 yards rushing before bradshaw this week, is this overall yardage or just one stat yardage?

One stat yardage. 60 rush and 40 rec = no bonus. Cam double dipped the other week by throwing and rushing for 100+. Was 66 pts in my league

I keep telling myself I need to find a normal league. 100 yds = 25 pts (1pt per 20 plus 20 pt 100 yd bonus). 3 TDs and 60 yds = 21 pts. Makes no sense

Yeah, that's way too much of a bonus. That seems like it would make things really really variable week to week. Your WR1 got 99 yards receiving? 4 points. 101 yards? 25 points. Pretty absurd.

I'm up 4 points but my opponent has TY "Bajillion Points" Hilton tonight (0.5PPR)

Do I stay the course with Dwayne Allen (he's been fairly reliable) or gamble on Larry Donnell? I need a TE for next week anyways because he's on bye...

Allen has a better shot at getting a TD or having a big game than Donnell, imo. I'd stick with Allen.

Booo :v: If Allen has his usual ~10 point game, you at least have a chance at winning against Hilton. If Hilton doesn't get a TD and you're not in PPR, he could get less than 14 easily (only two games >140 yards). Realistically, at best you can only hope Donnell hits 10 points, with like a few percent chance at a multi TD 15-20 game. If he gets his usual <5, you WILL lose to Hilton. And I'd argue the chances of Allen getting multi TDs is better than Donnell getting them anyway. Go with your gut, of course, but I'd play Allen every time here.

E: Oh poo poo, I missed that it was 0.5 PPR. Uhhh, I think you're screwed either way, haha. But Allen will get you more points!!!

vvvv: Ok yeah, I concede defeat. My non-PPR intuition is wrong cause Donnell gets a ton of targets.

You're finished, pork-o-nazi!
The Colts give up 1 more fantasy ppg than the Giants do. And Donnell had 7 catches last game. And Donnell is the only one those two with a multiple TD game this year, which is likely what you'd need to win. I'd roll with Donnell, but it's mostly a crapshoot.

Picking up and playing Donnell because he's the best thing on the wire for next week and I need filthy, filthy points any way I can, I don't want to be 4-5 :ohdear:

I realized why I'm so down on Donnell. I was up 40 points against my opponent's Antonio Brown and Donnell. Brown got 20 and I will be annoyed as hell if Donnell decides to have a huge game.

No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.
Donnell hasn't done dick all year aside from that one 3 TD game. Allen has Andrew loving Luck throwing to him. I would have started him 10 times out of 10.
