Halloween has come and gone. Thanksgiving is right around the corner with Christmas soon to follow. Why, you ask, am I reciting major upcoming events on the calendar? Because it means time is running out on your fantasy football regular season.

You won’t have too many more chances to set lineups. Which means you don’t have too many more opportunities to lock in or strengthen your playoff spot. The good news is that there are only two teams on a bye this week. The bad news is that you’ll still have some tough lineup decisions to make.

Allow Tua to return to your fantasy frontal lobe for at least one more week.
