This is a pretty important game, Panthers will be better with Dalton. I remember he played Seattle last year and threw all over them. We still have many issues on offense so hopefully AP has this team locked in.

I think Vic made a good point in the Just Win Podcast. He said if AP is telling the media the OL sucks, imagine what he's telling the guy in the OL room inside the building lol

Makes me think AP will have these guys locked in.

so happy JPJ will make his debut. Probably won't start but this will be a good week to get him some live reps.

Honestly, I'd start him. Panthers DL is toast. Not sure you're gonna find an easier game to debut in. 

If he struggles for some reason, you can adjust and pull him without crushing his confidence given he's been on the shelf.

You're right, especially with Derrick Brown out.

Yeah. I mean, Carolina is just so bad on both sides of the ball, they're a good opponent to try lineup changes and playcalling deviations on. 

Should be a practice outing that benefits the W/L column

Fantasy football question in .5ppr.  Who should I start in my flex Z. White or Akers?  I am leaning White but both he and our Oline have been terrible.  AP gave him some praise this past week despite his struggles and I feel like the Raiders will have a decent lead in the 2nd half leading to a run heavy game script. 

The Houston O is dynamite, their D is underrated and the Vikings are frauds who will fade.  I believe Houston will get out to a lead and will lean on Akers to run the clock.  The Texans have a much better O than us and Akers has shown flashes in the past but is coming off his second achilles tear.  Apparently the Vikings D is decent against the run over the first two games but that wont last. 

Thoughts on who to start?

I think this is the rare time you can start Zeus. you might as well cut him if don’t feel confident to start him tomorrow.

Agreed, if there is any time to start him it's tomorrow but it's not a slam dunk.  Akers is the only healthy RB in Houston, has shown flashes in the past and is on an explosive O with a ton of weapons to pay attention too.  Hopefully Zeus goes off and then I can trade him in a package deal for one player.
