Playoffs are right around the corner starting in week 13 or 14 depending on your league and this is when it gets serious. You might still be fighting for the playoffs and if that is the case, just go all out and do whatever it takes to win this last week. If you are comfortably in the playoffs, it’s time to start stock piling defenses who have favorable playoff match-ups (Denver) and start picking up those handcuffs.
Also injuries are playing a big factor. Melvin Gordon might be seriously injured (Ekeler = priority) and Jack Doyle was placed on injured reserve.
