  1. in my league you get 3 points for all FG but if the FG is more than 50 you get 6 points.   its a bit overvalued but those long ball kickers become valuable in this format.

    I'm sure each league has their own rules but I am thinking if its over 50 you get 4 points and over 60 you get 6 points.

    I like A.J. Brown, but he didn't look upset, got the impression he'd rather have his 2/132 rather than a win.

    yes, thats why they are calling him a Diva.

    more interested in their own stats and interests than that of the team.

    dont get me wrong, players like that can be useful but they tend to wear out their welcome over time.

    I wouldn't cut him. But, I definitely would be looking to possibly start another RB; instead of him. I wish I started Aaron Jones from the Vikings this week over Saquon.

    agreed. you cant cut him.

    I got him in round 1 of a redraft league I was in.  worked well early in the year but not so good since.

    once AJ started complaining about his lack of use in the offense its like the offense tried to flip back to a gameplan that throws the ball more and Sequon has sort of been the forgotten man to some extent.

    I do think once the chips are down it will be the run game once again.  but that wont help us for fantasy.

    KC is cooked. Kelce is slower than a turtle. Pacheco bounces around like he won the game every time he gains 1 yard…? 

    well, I'm not surprised about Kelce.  Look at how old the guy is.   historically most TE dont play this late into their career.  Most are done by the age of 30.  a handful play to 31 or 32.

    dude has had the longest career for a TE in history with the possible exception of Tony Gonzalez

    hes earned the right to slow down a bit.

    They played conservatively (basically ran the ball all day) because from the first drive it was clear the Bears could run all over the Eagles.  They got the lead they never relinquished and Caleb's arm/legs really weren't needed today.  When both your main RB's get over 100 yards rushing the passing attack can take a day off lol.

    you are not wrong.

    The bears clearly won the battle at the Line of Scrimmage today.   and thats a battle the Eagles normally win.    That was the story of the day (in my opinion)  

    given how bad the bears O line was last year, I'm a bit surprised they have been this good.   I know they made moves, and drafted players, but those moves dont usually pan out this quickly.  its usually like a 2 year process to turn things around to this extent.  and thats assuming the team knows what they are doing. (not always a good assumption)

    Uh .. I can think of over 2,000 reasons they were NOT right last season!  (And, he could have gotten the record - he was held out the last week of the regular season.)  Also - remember; last year's OC took the Saints HC job.

    Barkley was plenty good last year.   even if he craps the bed from here on out, it was still a good move for philly.  they got a SB out of it.


  7. While it does look like the bears are protecting Caleb somewhat with conservative play calling,  I dont mind that.   

    at the end of the day, Caleb wasnt awesome but he was good when he needed to be.   and in a matchup against a good team like the Eagles, that means a lot.  even if the game wasnt all that good statistically.

    What da heck his Tony smoking??

    He keeps talking about these two team, whoever wins, can win out. 😂🤣

    Neither Dallas nor KC is gonna win out! Too funny Tony. Too funny.

    KC has a chance.   they had a fantastic regular season last year.   but I dont know what happened against the boys last night.....   I was unable to watch but it seemed..... bad

    Are you rolling with him today against a shaky Balt def, or taking a wait and see approach?  If you are starting him, over who?  I’m starting him over Nix.

    a lot of the injuries that ravaged that defense are now resolved as the injured players are back in the lineup.   you may have noticed that the Baltimore D has firmed up the last couple of weeks.   I wouldnt say they are shaky any longer.  maybe more in the average range.   beatable but not soft.

    I plucked him off of the Superflex Dynasty waiver wire a few weeks ago as a hail Mary. 

    I don't need him right now but I'd love for him to be at least serviceable so I can trade him in the off-season. If he can tread water and becomes the Browns starter then he's worth a ton in Superflex. 

      

    in superflex, any QB who is starting has value.   so for that, you've already done well.

    as we are past the trade deadline, yeah, he needs to hold the job until the offseason.    good news for you:   the bar is pretty low in Cleveland.   the main competition hasnt even been able to consistently throw for 200 yards. (he did it once in like 5 or 6 games)

    so if he can do better than that and not shoot his mouth off too much to get himself in trouble, the job could very well become his.

    He could easily take over that backfield. Kamara has been terrible. In a normal RB draft he would of certainly been a 3rd round pick at the least. 

    I was fortunate to grab him in 2 dynasty leagues for almost nothing. I'd love to see a big return on my investment. 

    I think it was potentially his if Kamara got traded.  and I think they did want to  trade him but maybe couldnt find anyone willing to pay enough.

    If Kamara is out a while yeah, I think it is his.  but if Kamara returns, it could be a time share situation but they may give him the start for the last week or two of the season just to see what they have in him.    if moving on from kamara you need to know if his replacement is already on the roster.

    If you want to lose your league 

    This is EXACTLY what you've been waiting for, it's why you drafted Henderson. You took a late round flyer, struck fantasy gold and then you trade him?? This could be a possible league winning flex/RB2

     

    I suppose it really depends on what you trade him away for.

    there is a point where the price is high enough to trade almost anyone.      and if someone is high on the player an overpay isnt out of the question even if you think the player has the potential to get better, the overpay basically locks in your appreciation on the player.   and if you have needs elsewhere in the lineup that are now being met as a result of the deal, yeah you make the trade.

    what you dont do is sell him for a bargain.

    I remember many on this board doubting mr Mccaffery, that he wasn’t worthy of a first rd pick, he wouldn’t make it pass game six, the guy is the best ff player.  Silly people 

    given the guys injury history and he was out much of pre season I think people were right to be wary of the guy.

    hed had more unhealthy years than healthy ones in recent years.

    I like purdy because he's competitive scrapy & not scared he has a set of nuts ... He's a local talent here in Des Moines Iowa... But He's way over rated and not fooling me 

    well, Mac Jones has looked better so far this year.   though when you have a year thats broken with injury to the extent it has been, its sometimes hard to get back on track.

    Before the game started I was saying to myself they have a better chance with Mac Jones

    looks like you were right.

    I'm amazed. usually when the QB throws 3 early game INT its a blowout loss.    San Fran is actually winning despite this.

    granted... the game is not over.  but still......

    the odds of him being a worthy start are considerably higher with MHJ out of the lineup.   Mooney is a guy cousins had a connection with when he did play last year.   that familiarity likely makes him a reasonable candidate to be a solid play.

    obviously if you have good options at WR3 you can sit him.  but if you have been bitten by the injury bug and are in need, hes a reasonable option.

    quite often when a backup QB gets thrown in to start, someone from the backup squad ends up having a mini breakout of sorts because they have a connection with the backup QB due to practice reps together.

    This is no different.

    I'm not predicting a huge week but I dont think hed be a terrible start if you were in need.   dude is likely on the wire in a lot of leagues and can be had for free.  its not like its a high risk move even if he sits on your bench.  Most teams have a scrub backup that this guy can likely outperform.   at the very least... he should be rostered.

    3 catches 74 yards and a TD.

    not fantastic in the sense he only had 3 catches..... but also... not bad.

    The Bucs need to find a legitimate backup NFL quarterback. Teddy Two Gloves ain't it.

    agreed.  

    Baker has historically been fairly healthy, so the need hasnt arisen much of late.   but they also signed some big dollar contracts lately, so maybe its a case where they couldnt sign a good backup because of the contract money that is already outstanding.

    What is the bigger concern, is Barkley is running in quick sand, His per att avg in  four of his last five games is 2.6.  He’s gone over eighth rush yards once.   

    for some reason I seem to think they had an injury or two to the O line.    I'll admit I am going from memory (which may not be as good as I'd like) and I'm too lazy to look it up but I seem to think that was a bit of a thing in Philly.

    if that is the case we'd be ignorant to think that wont affect the underlying numbers in the run game as well as the offense as a whole.

    its also possible its a superbowl hangover and  the team is just not taking things as serious as its not yet playoff time.
