Doctor Doctor,

I have some playoff position questions:

QB: I don't want to be cute, but Matt Ryan has been brutal recently, and Josh Freeman has been leading my bench (and is playing the Eagles). Time to switch?

RB: Doug Martin is a lock, but then I have Steven Jackson, Bryce Brown and Knowshon Moreno. Love Bryce, but will he play? Worried with Moreno starting on Thursday. Need a RB2 and a flex out of those three.

Thanks for the help in advance, hope your season is going well and good luck.

— Coach Joe

That’s quite the QB quandary, Joe. I’d go with Freeman. The matchup is outstanding, and Ryan’s production has fallen off of late. Giving Ryan another chance would be understandable, too, of course. Both are very good options.

At running back, I’d start Martin, and I would start Brown, who figures to get another start in Week 14 with LeSean McCoy (concussion) not yet cleared.

For the flex spot, I’d lean toward Moreno over Jackson, but both have very good matchups.

Hey Fantasy Doctor,
