I like Smith, he is one I'd start for sure but it's not a GREAT matchup with Miami's secondary. Still if those are my options I start him. The rest is kind of a toss up, so in a coin-flip playoff Baldwin won and I'd go with him.

Stafford (vs TB) or Tannehill (vs BAL)? I think TB may actually have a better secondary than BAL but my admittedly homer gut says Stafford has a field day with TB.
What say you?

This is a close call, if it were me I'd roll with Tannehill due to his rushing ability. But you could make a case for stafford just as easily. Really a toss up and one I would go with my gut

Just can't go against the numbers - BAL is 31st in pass D and has their best CB injured.

Good luck to all fighting for a playoff spot! I'm in 4th place and need to win and to put up a decent amount of points (5th and 6th place have the same record as me and are both less than 15pts away). Anyways, I have the hardest flex decision I've ever had to make (12 team, non-ppr): Kenny Stills, Dan Herron, Isaiah Crowell, Denard or Stedman Bailey? I have Stills in right now, but not feeling 100% confident. Help!!!

That's real rough. Honestly the best option you have is to go with your gut. There isn't a wrong choice here.

Yeah, I'm fortunate that the guys in my 2 deep for WR and RB are good enough that these are the guys competing for a flex spot. Still, it makes it tough filling that position.

I think I would go with Crowell as long as he is playing, but pretty tough decision.

I honestly like Herron in that bunch. If can stop fumbling, he is getting touches in a great offense.

For my RB2: Denard or Joique? I'm leaning Denard simply because I doubt Joique will repeat his Thanksgiving performance. What's the story on Bush? For WRs, I get to start three and right now I have Julio, Emmanuel Sanders, and TY Hilton, but I have Mike Evans on the bench. Think I'm good?

Houston has been good against the run and so has TB in yards per carry given up - yet TB has given up the 11th most points to fantasy RBs this year according to ESPN.

Lacy and Nelson should score well against the Falcons, especially in primetime in the dome. Feel confident with those 2.

Cobb and I think you have to go with Forsett. He may have less touches this week with the ankle but he is tearing it up. Dolphin had an injury on DL last week and Anderson (my guy) went off. Forsett...Ride the horse that got you there....

I think I will go with Forsett, I'm just worried how limited he'll be. Its a riisk reward situation I guess.

Should I start Darren Sproles or Frank Gore at RB2? Also at QB should I start Matt Stafford or Phillip Rivers?

One more: deandre hopkins vs kelvin benjamin. Kelvin has the saints, which has given up the 7th most fantasy points to WRs. Hopkins has the jags, which are terrible. Help?

Hopkins.

No doubt, start DeAndre. That's what I'm doing on my team for first week of playoffs. Cam Newton has been pretty awful this season too.

Hopkins in his 2nd year is really coming in to his own. I'd roll with him. Kelvins QB is so up and down....

Flex spot (.5 PPR): Roddy White, Rashad Jennings, Julius Thomas, or Andre Williams?

I've been hit hard by the injury bug lately. Luckily I locked up a playoff spot already.

Detriot will blow one big play for a TD and Evans gives you the best chance in Standard league. PPR leagues i'd have to give the edge to Tate.
