jgcrawfish 232 Posted November 14, 2015 Steelers are pretty bad in defense against the TE, so it might balance out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyclone24 1,814 Posted November 14, 2015 No. Im sitting him for Ebron. Last week watching Manziel roll out away from Barnidge every single play was beyond infuriating Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fantasy Fiend 38 Posted November 14, 2015 Yes, sit him. Last week confirmed that. Not making that mistake twice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,461 Posted November 14, 2015 Don't disagree about sitting him with Johnny football at qb , but I have no choice he is my only te on those teams and I don't want to drop someone for a few points . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thewrathofkuhn 40 Posted November 14, 2015 Even though Manziel is awful and doesn't have the same chemistry with Barnidge McCown has – I don't understand how so many of you have the TE depth to sit a TE1. Jealous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jealous. Fair point.... If there aren't any better options you gotta roll with him. In this case I can roll out Reed while he is healthy for a few weeks (hopefully) vs. the Saints secondary, no brainier. That is until Reed gets a concussion when a strong wind blows on Sunday.

stonewall 647 Posted November 14, 2015 Barnidge is gonna bring the Carnage! (I hope...actually still debating between him and Kelce in a TD-heavy league). FWIW, Pitt has given up 61.4 yards/game and 7 total TD's to TE's through 9 weeks...although 4 were to Gronk/Chandler in week 1. Also, Gates/Green put up 142 yards and 2 scores in week 5. Yes, Manziel is a downgrade...but he did target the Barn 7 times last week, including in the endzone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stonewall 647 Posted November 14, 2015 Umm yeah, I'd start Kelce. HTH Perhaps.....but, ummm, it's really not that cut and dried. Kelse only had 58 yards at home against Denver at home earlier this year, and has only 3 TD's as opposed to Barnidge's 6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antiramie 50 Posted November 14, 2015 Still starting Barnidge over Julius...I think... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smelly_spider 0 Posted November 14, 2015 I am still leaning towards him as I don't have much of anything else. The one positive is that Johnny seemed to look for him in the redzone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyclone24 1,814 Posted November 14, 2015 Barely. I mean the couple throws he had there had almost no chance of completion. Saw somewhere his targets with mccown is like 15% more than with manziel. That's a lot and when manziel isn't terribly accurate.. No bueno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tanatastic 2,061 Posted November 15, 2015 receptions don't countThat would be a standard league. TD heavy can also mean some terrible leagues that only count TDs. So if your guy gets 120yds and 0 TDs you get bupkis. If he scores you get 6. These leagues are terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tanatastic 2,061 Posted November 15, 2015 Johnny is good for exactly 1 passing TD per game and not much yardage. You want to gamble it goes to Barnidge and accept his yards will be low regardless? That's what's known as a low upside play. I'd rather pick up Richard Rodgers in a heartbeat over Barnidge this week. Give me a guy on a team likely to throw 2+TDs and 250+yds.

Reality 2,710 Posted November 17, 2015 A lot of dumb in this thread when it comes to Manziel. He played pretty damn well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewrathofkuhn 40 Posted November 17, 2015 A lot of dumb in this thread when it comes to Manziel. He played pretty damn well. He had a QBR of 40 and took 6 sacks, half of which were avoidable had he not tried to avoid them by running in circles. But I digress, this thread is about discussing his impact on Barnidge's fantasy numbers which were garbage to date with JM starting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I digress, this thread is about discussing his impact on Barnidge's fantasy numbers which were garbage to date with JM starting. Benjamin dropped an easy TD and Johnny ran one in that wasn't called a TD inexplicably, those could have affected his QBR, a made up stat nobody pays attention to but, I digress as well.
