I thought about posting a FF thread in week 1, but didn't. This week, I'd like some other thoughts on lineup suggestions (and post your ?s too). Also, depending on response, maybe do this weekly. I can only put so much faith in guys like Matthew Berry and the yahoos on CBS and NFL Network.

Ok, so I'm 1-1, and playing a guy who is traditionally strong, but sitting at 0-2 and he's in my division. He played Gronk Thursday night (goose egg). I feel added pressure to try and put him in a hole to start the season. 

We play QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 RB/WR Flex, TE, K, DL, LB, DB, 1 DL/LB/DB Flex. Full point PPR.

My current starting lineup:

-Stafford, Ingram, R Matthews, M Evans, J Nelson, Michael Thomas, Ebron, Haushka, A Donald, D Johnson, L Collins, Shazier.  

On my bench, I have, Dak, Hyde, Dewayne Washington, Allen Hurns, G Tate, and a couple other defensive guys. My questions are around QB, RB and Flex. Clay Matthews, Burnett and Shields are all out for GB on defense. Law of averages would suggest it's about time Dak throws a TD (or a few) against Chicago. At RB, Matthews lost work to Sproles last week, and is going against Pitt, but Hyde has Seattle and Washington is a rookie who a lot of people are high on, but no one knows how much work he'll get.  Hurns also hasn't scored yet, but has been solid w/o scoring so far. Tate has been disappointing to say the least so far, but he's had a ton of targets, so the opportunity is there, and with GB banged up on D, that might be a shootout.  

Do I play Dak over Stafford? Is Hyde or Washington a better play than Matthews? I personally feel like Thomas is overdue for a TD also, and on Monday night against Atlanta, I think he breaks through, but Hurns and Tate could as well.
