Reaction to Week 13 – This game was way more high scoring and closer than I anticipated. The first specific note I made was to sit Geno Swift. He had 334 yards passing, 4 total TDs, and a pick. Stats like last year’s Geno. I was wrong to sit him. I then said to play all your top Cowboys, except Ferguson. Well, I was right about Prescott, Pollard, and Lamb but wrong about Ferguson. You should have played him too. I then went on to say to start the Cowboys D. They won, but they gave up 35 points, and they had a pick and a sack. Not enough extras. I was wrong to start them. Finally, I said to start Charbonnet with the Hawks. He had 60 yards rushing, 39 yards receiving, and a TD. I was right to start him. I’m exhausted after writing that.
Week 14’s Thursday night game matches up the Patriots and the Steelers. First of all, if you have the Steelers D and do not play them against the Patriots, you need to lay off your crazy pills. Secondly, you need to play Ezekiel Elliott with Stevenson going to be ruled out, and especially after the Steelers just let James Conner have a game this past week. Thirdly, and finally, even if Najee Harris is a go, he will be less than 100% so logic would say he might be limited on snaps and usage, which means more usage for Jaylen Warren. Play Warren with confidence. Yinz!
