With the NFL season winding down, if you are still in your fantasy league’s playoffs, that means a title is within reach.

You hopefully are playing in your league’s championship this week, though it may not be a bad thing if it does not come until Week 17. With so many big-time wide receivers banged up, you will be facing some tough decisions this week on who to start with everything on the line.

Julio Jones (toe), A.J. Green (hamstring), and Donte Moncrief (hamstring) are just a few of the key receivers dealing with injuries that could threaten their availability this week.

That has made guys like Taylor Gabriel, Brandon LaFell, and Phillip Dorsett worthy starters in the championship round. With so many tough questions to ask this week, questions, feel free to ask us in the SB Nation War Room through Thursday, or you can tweet us your questions at @SBNationFantasy.
