Welcome back RotoBallers! Obviously any Sunday NFL talk at this point is very risky with the fluidity of the COVID news that seems to be flowing in every hour. At this time I am operating on the assumption that only the LAR/SEA and WAS/PHI games will be moved.

OwnersBox Quarterback Picks
On OwnersBox, you have the option of starting two quarterbacks as this is a Superflex contest.
Tom Brady, TB ($7,800) - vs NO
One of the biggest differences in OB's main slate compared to the main slates over at DK or FD is the inclusion of the Sunday night games. Sometimes they can go under-owned because people simply haven't done SNF research for DFS purposes. Of course the best night-game hammer this week is Tom Brady against the Saints for their final matchup of the season. Brady dropped 30 FP on them back on Halloween and is coming off back-to-back 35+ FP performances. The Saints are giving up the 8th most FPPG to QB over the last 4 weeks.
Tyler Huntley, BAL ($4,800) - vs GB
Now that we have locked the GOAT in at QB, we can afford to get a little risky at our SuperFlex spot. Over the last 4 weeks, no team has surrendered more FPPG to opposing QB than Green Bay. Justin Fields looked pretty good against them last week. Unfortunately it appears Jaire Alexander is positioned to return this week, but Kenny Clarke was placed on COVID list today. It also helps that Baltimore's secondary is so bad right now that it will guarantee a positive game script for the Baltimore passing game. Tyler Huntley is dirt cheap and looked more than capable when he took over for Lamar Jackson last week. This pick obviously hinges on the status of Jackson, but for what its worth, he did not practice at all this week.
OwnersBox Running Back Picks
James Robinson, JAX ($6,000) - vs HOU
Let's go ahead and eat this chalk. Houston has been gashed on the ground recently, and Urban Meyer is gone. It all adds up to an angry JRob game.
Myles Gaskin, MIA ($5,700) - vs NYJ
Earlier this week it appeared the Dolphins might have to just skip the running back position against the Jets, but Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed have both been activated off the COVID list. It is a dream matchup for Gaskin, as the Jets surrender more FPPG to RB this season than any other team. The fact that Jaylen Waddle is now on the COVID list serves as a potential fantasy boost to all healthy Dolphins as you basically get to spread his ~10 targets a game across the board now and the Jets have allowed the 3rd most targets per game to RBs.
OwnersBox Wide Receiver Picks
Chris Godwin, TB ($6,900) - vs NO / Rashod Bateman, BAL ($5,100) - v GB
Always love the double stack in these SuperFlex contests. These two selections are about avoiding the stud Cornerbacks. It is well known the battle that Mike Evans and Marshon Lattimore will be fighting, and the return of Jaire Alexander would "seem" to limit the floor of Hollywood Brown. Godwin dropped 28 FP in the previous matchup with the Saints, and Bateman showed great chemistry with Huntley last week when he turned eight targets into seven catches and 103 yards.
DeVante Parker, MIA ($5,400) - vs NYJ
More chalk that I feel must be eaten. Chalk is good for heartburn, fyi. As mentioned earlier, Jaylen Waddle was placed on the COVID list. If he does not play, Parker should be the main beneficiary and should easily receive double digit targets against a bad secondary.
OwnersBox Tight End Picks
Nick Vannett, NO ($3,600) - at TB
At this point in the season, and with mallet-finger Fullback Taysom Hill playing QB, Vannett is the only pass catcher not named Alvin that I trust on the Saints, and they are going to need quite a bit of passing to keep up with TB. A small tidbit about this TB defense that I was told by a friend on Twitter (@steve_renner), if a teams RB is the focal point of the offense, the TE can run wild on this defense. Not very scientific, I know, but I like the bring-back on the TB stack at this price point.
$4,700 Duo - Zach Ertz at DET, Mike Gesicki v NYJ
Both with great matchups, and both potentially missing their teams top WR.
