That's on BG only. Only played in two money leagues this year and my other one has been ravaged by injuries as well. Between the 2 I think I've had 6 players go to IR

Honestly, anyone who picked up bell was picking him up strictly for stretch and playoffs only. I knew he wasn't going to show until week 9 or 10. Ayaji's injury hurts though. I rode him and Gurley into the ground last year.
gordon, lindsay, and white. 99 problems but a rb ain't one
Which team

Cult for 3LIII
Barely scraped by this week. That London game really screwed me over. Had every intention to swap out Allison for Dede Westbrook, and didn’t realize Jags were in the early game. Also didn’t realize my opponent had Brady. Would’ve benched Gronk for Olsen.
-Cue DBZ preview music-
Next week on BG$...Battle for 1st Place Supremacy. Cult of 3LIII vs Whammy!
-Dannananananaaaaaa. NANA!-
That specific match-up is a wash. You’re barely gaining any net points out of it. Gronk isn’t really packaged for plays that have him run down the field at Mach 2 like Tyreek Hill after a catch. You play Olsen to go unhindered and not be worried about being tied to your opponents stats.
He has, and had, a higher ceiling of net points over the other in this scenario.
I see what you're saying, but I don't think the logic makes sense.
You want your team to have the highest points total possible, period. If Gronk puts up more points than Olsen, you want him in your lineup. It doesn't matter if some of the points are "cancelled out" by Brady on your opponent.
The only scenario I can think of where this makes sense is if you have Olsen and Gronk v. Brady on MNF and you're down, say, 15 points. Youre only winning if Gronk and Brady both suck and Olsen goes off. Any other day if Brady puts up 30 and Gronk puts up 20, you want those 20 points.

We’ll have to agree to disagree then. I’d rather Brady suck altogether and just play another TE, then possibly have him go off with Gronk helping out his momentum.
EDIT: Last night I went into MNF down 14 with Gronk, Shady, and Gostkowski versus Brady.
whenever my opponent has a qb, and the total score is supposed to go off, i always want the guys that will be catching his tds
the receivers are the ones that get the better end of that deal
if i didn't play gronk it would be for the simple reason that the total score was projected to be low, so there's less tds to go around... which it ended up being
Some great options here, I know. But such is the way of streaming defenses.
Only care about defensive yards allowed.
Dolphins (vs Jets), Raiders (vs SF), or Chiefs (vs Browns)
Currently have the Dolphins, and they're projected to have the fewest yards allowed of the three. But I'm intrigued by the Raiders simply because it's looking like SF may be playing their 3rd string QB.
Dolphins should have the most turn overs, but if you're looking for yards allowed and the Jets are playing from behind due to TO's it might not be as favorable.
I'd still lean towards them too but Oakland is a close 2nd.
This is a rough week for streaming defenses.
CHI(-10)/BUF: 37.5
DAL(-6.5)/TEN: 41
MIA(-3)/NYJ: 45
SF(-2.5)/OAK: 45.5
If the only thing that matters for the DST in your league is yards allowed than I'd just follow whatever Vegas is saying.
Cowboys are probably streamable and they've allowed the least amount of yards on the season (2196).
