Whether you believe in the conspiracy of NFL writers or not, we can at least rejoice in the fact that the league appears to have solved the problem of poor prime-time games.
Thursday night's 65-point extravaganza between the Lions and the Packers capped off a stellar stretch of prime-time play that kept viewers glued to their televisions from start to finish.
But if you fantasy soccer Is the team on the losing side in these big games?
What happens in Week 14 when they face two of Thursday's top performers, Jared Goff and Josh Jacobs?
If you find yourself on the back foot in a must-win matchup, it's time to shoot for the moon.
Fantasy managers are constantly at odds with themselves regarding weekly roster composition.
Do you choose a safe, top lineup and believe your players are better than your opponent's?
Or do you feel like you need to swing for the fences and aim for the upside?
It's a fine line sometimes, but when you're down 50 or 60 points and your opponent only has two players playing, it's time to shake it off and run.
With so many up-and-down players in the NFL, finding the right player can be difficult.
The two most popular players right now are Nick Westbrook-Ikin and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
These two receivers are far from household names and have been fan favorites for weeks.
Westbrook-Ikin is averaging just three catches per week, but has eight touchdowns in the past eight games, so he'll have to rely on that to hit his ceiling.
Valdes-Scantling has similar numbers with four touchdowns over the past three.
Both should be in the WR3 or flex spot, especially if you're behind on the scoreboard.
We will have to look at other possible solutions and check with the Raiders.
Jacobi Meyers has averaged 6.4 receptions per game since Davante Adams was traded to the Jets, making him a logical candidate to start every week.
However, he showed up on the injury report late in the week, so Tre Tucker should be added to the roster right away if he is out or limited.
Tampa Bay has always struggled with pass coverage, especially in the middle of the field.

Also, Darius Slayton will play against a weakened Saints secondary, Calvin Austin III and Mike Williams will play against the Browns, and Josh Reynolds was just added to the Jaguars roster after Parker Washington went off the injury report. We should also pay attention to players such as:
He is playing against his former team, the Titans, whose secondary is also on injured reserve.
You don't want to use up-and-down players throughout your lineup, but there's always time to throw in a few.
Don't make decisions based on website predictions. However, if you find that you're already worse than the 8-ball, it's time to pull out all the stops.
This may be their last chance to make the fantasy playoffs.
Do whatever it takes to get in.
