Eagles also had what might have been the best run blocking line in the NFL. so when you have that you can run the ball that much. for the most part, it didnt matter if teams keyed on the run or not. they'd still produce with the run game. The raiders do not have That level of run blocking. You are right. I bet they get less than 400 carries. I'd be surprised if they even got 350. The will still be playing from behind a fair bit this year. You wont really see the rushing numbers pop in Vegas until the team as a whole starts to improve some. That will take another year or two.

I dont know about QB5 but he will be decent. my prediction is 220 yards passing and 1 Pass TD. 50 yards rushing and a 50% chance of scoring a rush TD. thats a 20 point day if he doesnt get the rush TD and a 26 point day if he does. pretty solid. for the record he put up decent fantasy points when he was a starter. part of his problem as a QB was he couldnt stay healthy. and he was mediocre in terms of winning games, but he was also playing for some pretty bad teams. but if I was short of a QB and was told Tyrod was starting I'd have no issue with starting him.

I like Maye this year. hes looking good so far. mac Jones is another good one. Shanny apparently wanted to draft him instead of Trey Lance but was overruled (either by ownership or his GM) either way, Shanny has a history of taking mediocre QB and making them into productive players. so I figure you got 2 QB who are solid. you likely cant make a bad choice here. I'd play the matchup. whoever plays the weaker pass defense. when I'm undecided that's always my go to on the tie break. fftoday has a ff points against tool that tells you which defenses give up most points vs various positions. highly useful in cases such as this.

at some point in the game there was a focus on him having his ankle taped up. Its possible he hurt it earlier in the game and didnt tighten up until the game was over. it is also possible it was a benching but they are sparing him the pubic humiliation I'm not saying you guys are wrong. but it is also possible its both.

high ankle sprain. as per NFL.com https://www.nfl.com/news/vikings-qb-jj-mccarthy-ankle-sprain-unlikely-to-play-week-3-bengals Wentz is his backup. if he plays, hes likely startable

No. a lot of defenses will sell out to stop the run and force the backup to beat them through the air. good news is Browning is mostly serviceable. a bit high on the INT but his yardage totals are not that bad. if I recall, Last time Burrow got hurt, he was good for 3-4 games. then defenses started to figure out how to play him and he was less successful after that. but hes good enough to start on some teams in the NFL in my opinion. probably one of the better backups out there.

ok apparently its a knee sprain as per NFL.com https://www.nfl.com/news/jayden-daniels-commanders-qb-knee-injury-packers-loss

Sure. I'll go with that. if they get you more points its always a good move

yeah turf toe. not sure how bad Turf Toe needs to get to perform a surgery, but thats what we have.

if it aint broke, dont go fixing it. Thats what they say isnt it?

well, the Vikings have a good defense. so I'm willing to give the Falcons a pass on offense. but the Falcons D isnt supposed to be that good. so thats a bit concerning.

supposedly another board had a quote saying they would look at him the next day and they were all like hes fine. but I read the link and it was ambiguous enough that they could back out of that easily. they never cleared him. They never said what the MRI said. the language was such that I am not certain hes healthy or injured. it could be taken in more than one way. so I think they are being cagey about it while covering the bases if needed. or just to keep the other team game planning for a Daniels start.

it sure looks that way. drafted him as my RB3 in one league but due to an injury hes my RB2 and so far performing decently.
