So, you're one of the few poor saps like me who was successful enough to make the finals in your league (congratulations!) but have the misfortune of a commissioner (perhaps yourself?) who is a bit of a turd and has scheduled a Week 17 championship.

Now you're stuck not only weighing players and matchups, but coaching decisions with respect to who will even see the field.

Rules
- Don't sit your studs. Except maybe do because they might not be playing this week
- Post your league rules

I'll start with mine. Don't think I can start Gronk, and I don't feel comfortable with Murray either. I've currently got a waiver claim in to get Heath Miller for the Buffalo D/ST. Trying to only start guys that have something to play. Thoughts? This is a Yahoo league, 0.2 PPR



Any hot waiver pickups this week that I should consider? I doubt I'll find anyone that is better than what I've got.

I think I'd go with Maclin. I could see the Eagles coming out pissed and dropping 50 on the Giants.

Tate is the other guy that I would consider. The first Packers/Lions game was ugly as poo poo and didn't have many (any?) solid fantasy producers. I imagine this game won't be as bad, but the possibility is there.

I would lean Miller as well.

I have my own Lamar Miller question. Pick 2:

Jeremy Hill @ Pittsburgh
Jonathan Stewart @ Atlanta
Mark Ingram @ Tampa Bay
Lamar Miller vs NYJ
DeMarco Murray @ Washington

I don't trust DeMarco this week. Currently have Hill and Stewart slotted in. I don't trust Ingram either, so it comes down to whether I should start Miller over either Hill or Stewart. It's 0.2 PPR

God I hate this week 17 bullshit. I've won 13 straight and I am legitimately worried I'm going to lose this week because I have to sit Murray and Gronk.

Nah, you can't sit either Hill or Stewart for Miller. They should both have great games. Miller is up against a tough defense; I'm not expecting more than 5-7 points from yardage with a good chance at a touchdown added in. Miller is still just a consistent RB2 in a bad match up. I agree that Hill and Stewart are your best options, though. I think you have good enough alternatives that you can feel ok sitting Murray.

Thanks. I'll stick with what I've got and hope for the best.

Projected points are stupid, but Week 17 is more stupid, because this is the first week all year I've got fewer projected points than my opponent. Because Gronk isn't playing and I can't trust Murray. Starting JStew and Heath Miller in their places. Please come up big, dudes.
