Week 11: Match-ups

Love this weekend's games: Patriots v Colts, Seahawks v Chiefs, Eagles v Packers and Cardinals v Lions. We also get Peyton v the Rams and Roethlisberger v the Titans and Brees v the Browns. So much football!

Farnsworth's (97) v Lighties (116)

Big intra-office battle for bragging and sledging rights. The Farn's are on a seven game losing streak and reside on the bottom of the standings, while the Lighties look to keep their place in the top-4. The Farn's will need to change the TE (injured) and Kicker (bye) position to be in with a chance, while the Lighties will be hoping that the rest of the team behind Peyton shows up this week as they make their run to the play-offs. Peyton (vs Rams) over Brady (vs Colts) is the current match-up. I think I'd be doing that too, and then waiting for the inevitable 7TDs from Brady to come and ruin the party, fickle Fantasy Gods (I hope that happens! Go Pats!).

Breesus (115) v Forces (119)

The General needs his star QB to have a big day back after the bye to end a three-game losing streak and take down the champ. Additionally, Johnson and Fitzgerald need to seriously improve their trending performances, and Ball needs a successful return from injury. Breesus, meanwhile, sits on a strong two-TE line-up, headlined, as usual, by Drew Brees, and supported by Matthews, Mason, Benjamin, Gates and Olsen. But, with two players each from San Diego and Carolina places a large reliance on those teams QBs to throw well, something neither Rivers or Newton have done in recent weeks. Are the cracks showing?

Zim (129) v Marcy (104)

Big projected win to Zim, with a projected score lower than the average of her last three games. Zim has a diverse team with only two players coming from the same team, her TE and Kicker, which are mostly independent scorers of each other. A rush to capture the second-string QB's, Zim took both Hoyer and Sanchez in free agency this week, leaving both on the bench and Smith to start. The Vampire Queen looks to have Newton as her starting QB, but with only Tannehill and Eli to choose from maybe that is the right way to go?

BB (116) v Agent P (124)

An unusual two-game losing streak for Agent P, she needs strong performances from Rivers and McCoy - two players that have been quiet their last two games. But the secret agent has a small projected lead, even with the starting Kicker on a bye. For BB, time for Roethlisberger to return to his previous week's MO and put up big numbers in Monday Night Football against the average Titans. Foster against the Browns is a great match-up, as is LaFell v Colts and Thomas v Rams.

Doof (113) v Endless (96)

Another one of those warped realities where I will be hoping that Endless's QB has a good game and throws a lot of TDs to my WR. Receiving TDs > throwing TDs, so hopefully Stafford doesn't throw to anyone else! Endless's RB corp is probably second to Zim's, with Charles and Ellington. Mike Wallace sitting in the Flex spot is a gun ready to fire -  but can Tannehill pull the trigger? My flex spot is wide-open: Sanu, DJax or Bryant? Or even Vereen - but can you trust Bellicheck to give Vereen the ball?
