roroco 75 Posted December 17, 2014 Benched, or are they forcing him to ride a stationary bike on the sidelines for the entire game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roroco 75 Posted December 17, 2014 Does this make lions D better or worse start I have the Packers (vs TB) and Detroit's defenses. This makes the decision tougher, but I still think I am rolling with the Pack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted December 17, 2014 Play the Lions But I have Ravens Vs texans 4th stringer so I am torn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IMMensaMind 460 Posted December 17, 2014 Well, Schefter is reporting that Clausen is going to be the guy vs. DET on Sunday. That cannot possibly be a good sign for Trestman, who said as recently as days ago that Cutler was going to be the starter the rest of the year unless hurt. So is DET going to play 9 in the box against Forte? This news may be compelling enough to actually bench Forte, and DEFINITELY start DET D/ST this weekend.

DaDanimal 2 Posted December 17, 2014 I'm in the championship and was riding his 16-24 garbage points a week. Wonderful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted December 17, 2014 Forte has been shafted by bad QB play for weeks. If anything maybe jimmy gives more dump offs than Cutlers close your eyes and chuck it 40 yds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tigeru 65 Posted December 17, 2014 Protecting him from injury for potential trade or cut. I've wanted him injured for 6 years. He's been injured every year but this and finally a whole season to prove what broncos fans knew. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaDanimal 2 Posted December 17, 2014 Now do I roll with Clausen or RGIII for the trophy..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fozapd 8 Posted December 18, 2014 In 16 team league and now I get to chose from rg3, clausen, Carr, case - great! As a bears fan - about time. Cutler throws deep too many times when the underneath first downs were open. Especially on third and short. Drive killer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flyfreak 84 Posted December 18, 2014 for what he makes, they should make that focker run a stair-master on the sidelines for the entire game 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dashow28 6 Posted December 18, 2014 Would have been nice had they benched him last week before he got all these garbage time points against me. I'm sure others feel the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dashow28 6 Posted December 18, 2014 I think this makes me starting J. Hill over Forte much easier now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fozapd 8 Posted December 18, 2014 It pains me to consider benching forte but I think I must. Jeremy hill vs a depleted Denver defense seems like the strong play Why bench forte? Bad qb with limited experience Stacked boxes to stop run Forte past poor showing on thanksgiving Detroit has a great defense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedzoneMonster 102 Posted December 18, 2014 Well this might answer my questions whether to play BUF or DET D this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fearsome 22 Posted December 18, 2014 I am in the final this week and Cutler is my guy. Carson Palmer is my back-up. We are not allowed any transactions during the playoffs. $800 for 1st place, $400 for 2nd. Should I send Trestman and Cutler an invoice for my lost winnings? Can't believe I am going into a championship game without a quarterback. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't believe I am going into a championship game without a quarterback. So your backup QB went on IR a month ago & you didn't pick up a viable backup knowing your league rules doesn't allow any transactions in the playoffs? This is on you dude. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That said, I'm rolling into the championship with Forte and Alshon, no real alternatives. Plus I probably have to play Flash Gordon with Johnny Wad flinging the ball around.

Plus I probably have to play Flash Gordon with Johnny Wad flinging the ball around. What's the big deal? It's kind of stupid, but I'd still now to have a viable backup knowing Cutler has stunk it up all season and there was talk about this. And ugh, I have Bennett, but unexperienced QB's usually like throwing those short routes to the TE. Good thing my opponent has Alshon!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DB Cooper 6 Posted December 18, 2014 How much do we downgrade Alshon? It's not like cutler had impeccable pocket presence or LaserSharp precision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fearsome 22 Posted December 18, 2014 I am just unlucky is all... Our league allows only 10 moves total all season to keep the integrity of the league and the importance of the draft in place. I have played in leagues where guys had close to 100 moves and streamed every week. I had cutler and Palmer rolling for about a month and during that time I used my moves on a bye week defense fill in and bobby Rainey among others. In fact I went without a kicker one week because I couldn't make a move. It sucks but that's the breaks. I made my own bed. A $400 bed. I need Arizona to dominate. My opponent has Wilson and lynch. Keep them under 20 and I might have a shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin44Bears 0 Posted December 18, 2014 Tressman is just trying to save his own behind. It will not help. Bears need to get rid of Cutler, Emery and Tressman ASAP. The 3 of them have absolutely destroyed this proud franchise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keep them under 20 and I might have a shot. I can see the trepidation, but there are ways around this any of which can be thought of by a commish with half a clue. Allow a certain number of free moves per year, then charge a buck a piece thereafter. That also sweetens the pot. Or you can institute a bylaw which allows a conditional move in event a player is placed on IR by his team. Short term/longterm I suppose can be debated.
