    McFadden

    Two observations. First, as another post stated, the Oakland line can't get to the second level. Derrick Johnson was unblocked on virtually every play, so those runs up the middle were doomed. Second, DMC can't make anyone miss and cannot break a tackle, which LSUtiger implies in his post. But he did look fast on that 64 yarder against PIT when the seas parted and he had a hole to run through.

    Antonio Brown sucks

    I drafted Brown in my PPR, and I agree that some guys just aren't much of a factor in the red zone. That's why the term 'possession receiver' was created. Names like Wayne Chrebet, Keyshawn Johnson, Ernest Givins, Jimmy Smith come to mind - tons of receptions, but double digit TDs just weren't going to happen with those guys. Brown might be that kind of guy - his numbers so far (pretty early in his career) are certainly consistent with that label. That said, he's the #25 WR in PPR so you could do worse at your WR2.

    Amendola advice

    I have him in an IR slot but don't expect him back until week 12 or so. I doubt he will be any help this year and would not be holding him if I had to spend a roster spot.

    Green Bay Packers at Houston Texans

    wow, did you just come up with that? pure genius.

    Green Bay Packers at Houston Texans

    I'll take it if the Texans win, even though it would mean a fantasy loss for me. Much prefer the win and those numbers reversed.

    Vick Ballard

    Thanks, someone needed to post this. He could run for 2000 yards over the next 10 weeks but he would still be that dude who fell down trying to run a 40.

    Is Jizz Rodgers even worth a roster spot?

    No, you should drop him and pick up someone who is getting 20 carries per game. If by some chance nobody like that is available, grab the backup on a team where the starter sucks ass.

    Time to bench McFadden?

    that's hard to believe thx for the reply, good to know.
  9. annnnnddddd.....the Falcons backfield caught four balls that hit them in stride. Peyton didn't seem to have much on his throws beyond 10-15 yds (FYI that doesn't mean he can't drop a ball downfield to someone wide open). I dunno, maybe it will end up hurting Thomas and helping Decker, if he runs underneath patterns more often.

    Time to bench McFadden?

    can someone who watched the game provide some info on why he caught just 2 passes out of 7 targets? that's more disappointing to me (ppr owner) than the horrid ypc which I kinda expected since the MIA is pretty strong against the run.

    Denver Broncos @ Atlanta Falcons - MNF

    this game would move along quicker if they held a fan vote over how to assess each penalty.

    Denver Broncos @ Atlanta Falcons - MNF

    nice to hear that the refs also have no idea where to put the ball after a penalty. I guess it's on the coaches to watch that and have a challenge flag ready (unless they are Denver haha)

    Denver Broncos @ Atlanta Falcons - MNF

    Neither are the players. Especially this replacement Julio Jones!

    Denver Broncos @ Atlanta Falcons - MNF

    is Julio on drugs?

    Cobb or James Jones?

    same opinion, different angle. I actually spent a draft pick on Jones but waived him when I saw Amendola on the WW in my PPR. The upside on Cobb is undeniable and I think the Packers are smart enough to see that. If James Jones was Mr. Consistency then this might be a tough decision but he's about as hit-or-miss as it gets.
