Your attending physician will again be PhiCinFan this year when he is in the house. When he's out you'll get the Nurse Practitioners. You have fantasy questions and PhiCin has answers. Fire away.
Wow solid starting question.......THE DR IS IN!Doc, I real excited about Tyreek Hill this season and have reason to believe that you are as well. However this week he faces a BellyCheck coached team that has excelled at taking away the other teams best weapon over the years and he's had ALL off season to plan it. Would you close your eyes and start him anyway ignoring the obvious or is Goldon Tate vs ARI (tough corners), Decker vs the Raiders, or Theilin vs the Saints a better play this wee? I'm leaning to the Vike facing the Saints on his home field and need someone to talk me off of the edge. Help me Doc!
Shouldn't this be in the "A Little Help" forum ??
Ahem.....cough, cough The Dr is Wise....the Dr is IN!Wow solid starting question.......THE DR IS IN!
First yes I am VERY, VERY high on Hill. He will be the starting and main Wr this year for KC, which has little receiving depth other than Kelce. Add to that, he will still maintain his specialty roles in the offense with runs, wildcat Qb and others. So to me he will only improve on what he did last year. For now he won't be doing returning, but I bet that happens again if needed so those in leagues where you get return pts this makes him even more valuable.
As for against NE, I am not as high on the NE defense as most. But they should be pretty solid. I would take Hill over Tate vs. Ari(as you state Ari has a great defense), and until I SEE Decker in Tenn in a game and see how much he gets used...I will avoid. Theilin vs. the Saints is a very sweet play as the coverages will roll to take away Diggs and Rudlolph.
So my perscription - for sure steady pts I would lean Theilen, but for the boom/bust high pts, I would go Hill.
