My opponent had Hill also so I thought I had a huge advantage. I'm down 8 and have Hurts so I'm hoping he plays. I picked up Mariota in case he's out but I'm not feeling confident either way.I need AJ Brown to go for 17 points or more tonight else I get eliminated. Thought I caught a break when my opponent didn't have Tyreek Hill this week but he had some guys do far more than their projections such as Chandler, Godwin, and Likely.
I played the same team last week and beat them pretty handedly but I also had the highest scoring week I've had all year. If Hurts is out tonight the guy looking to upset #1 probably going to need a great game from Mariotta and my ceiling on Brown is probably much lower too.
Been riding the 49er's hot streak lately with owning Purdy, Deebo, and Kittle. I got Brock in round 14 as insurance for a then (and I guess now too) injured Burrow before I drafted a defense and kicker with my last 2 picks and has by far been my best pick this season with many of my other picks being busts this season.

My **** team, after even more moves, ended up dodging byes in the toilet bowl and won this week to be eliminated from punishment contention. Call it a success story.If anyone was wondering, my **** team is still ****, but I did finally squeak out a win last week.
My dynasty contender is in danger of losing to a tanker currently
Purdy is on fire lately, but it's still hard to trust him going up against Baltimore. Hurts' matchup against the Giants is much more favorable.Week 16: Purdy or Hurts?
Thanks!Purdy is on fire lately, but it's still hard to trust him going up against Baltimore. Hurts' matchup against the Giants is much more favorable.
Brock has a tough matchup this week.Week 16: Purdy or Hurts?
Brock has a tough matchup this week.
I don't think you can go wrong either way, but Hurts has played some much better defenses those last 6 games also and is still producing.He does but check out the weeks since his week 9 bye. This is my Yahoo league scoring:
29.84 vs Jax
32.72 vs TB
11.46 vs Sea
37.46 vs Phi
24.42 vs Sea
33.68 vs Ari
28.26 average
Now for Hurts, he had a week 10 bye so I will use week 9 for the 6th game
29.88 vs Dal
17.90 vs KC
39.50 vs Buf
25.92 vs SF
8.88 vs Dal
19.92 vs Sea
23.67 average
Yes Hurts has the better matchup but I don't like how he's been trending lately either. I guess my opinion is you go with the guys that got you to the playoffs regardless of the matchup so if that has been Hurts then by all means play him but the 49ers right now just pass the eye test as a team that is firing on all cylinders where the Eagles are a bit of a mess at the moment. Hurts has a higher projection this week but Purdy has beat his projection 9 of 14 weeks and Hurts has beat his 8 times but Hurts usually his the higher projections most weeks too.
Neither are a bad choice this week, go with your gut I guess. To me I look at the last few weeks and Purdy has been the better play and his team is playing well right now while Hurts has had some bad games and his team is struggling.
