    I'd like your opinion of my current Week 6 lineup. I have Prescott and McCoy on bye so I'm starting:
    QB - Watson, RB - DeMarco Murray and Kamara, WR - Hill and Tate. I need to start one RB and WR and any two others. On my bench are RB - Perine, WR - Demarius and Thielan. Any suggestions, comments or criticisms??


    Team #3: - (TD Heavy, 14 Teams): 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 WR, 2 FLEX, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF
    Passing: 4 pts/TD - 5 if >40 yds, 3 pts 300-399 yds, 6 pts
    400-499 yds, 10 pts >500 yds. Rushing & Receiving: 6 pts/TD,
    9 pits/TD >40 yds, 1 pt 50-99 yds, 3 pts 100-199 yds,
    6 pts 200+ >yds
    Starters: QB - Prescott, RBs - McCoy, D. Murray, WRs - Demarius, Tate,

    I'm having a tremendous amount of trouble this season understanding your request. I'm very sorry about this.. Can we try a new format that is easier for my aging mind to gather. Maybe you can just flat out ask me whom I prefer over whom.. Or send me your preferred lineup - and your bench - and I'll tell you if it looks good?

    So option 1:

    Kurt do you like Demarius more than Thielan this week?


    Or option 2:

    Kurt here's my lineup, what do you think?

    QB - Watson
    RB - DeMarco Murray
    RB - Kamara

    WR - Hill
    WR - Tate

    FLEX - Demarius
    FLEX - Thielan

    K - Barth

    DEF - TB

    BENCH: Perine


    Thank you sir!

    I'm sorry for the confusion but I suspect the basic problem is that you have misunderstood what our lineup calls for; it seems to only happen with this team.. I must start one TE and four other skill players - one must be a RB and one must be a WR. So in my question today I have inserted Murray, Kamara, Hill and Tate. Demarious and Thielen are on the bench. I was asking if you think that is the optimum lineup or if I should use Thomas or Thielen instead of one of the four starters. What I cannot do is have four RBs or four WRs. So we consider two of those positions Flex.

    RB Murray

    WR Tate

    FLEX Kamara

    FLEX Hill


    Bench
    Demarious and Thielen

    Looks good to me. Although if you believe that New Orleans will seriously slow down Tate, I like Thomas in that spot. But Vegas has the OU on the DET @ NO game at 50 i believe so ya Tate seems promising.

    Pretty much my thinking, but I was worried about playing Kamara and having Thomas on the bench. However, he does have two TDs (which is what counts in this league) to zero for Damarious so I guess it isn’t a justified worry!

    Being from Detroit and watching the sad excuse for football the lions have been through the years im willing to bet the offense goes completely flat against the Saints. Any time the Lions are supposed to do something they WILL do the opposite lol
