One would think that Fant would be the safest of Denver's receiving options.

yes, and listed as WR. 

if he gets even one TD pass, hes likely a solid start at WR.

I picked him up, (mostly to keep my opponent from starting him against me)  I doubt i will play him.

I think the 6 foot 4 inch wr T Patrick will be the winner of the Broncos receiving options.

I doubt there will be any winners for the Broncos receiving options.

[weepaws 3,158]

There will be one, and I think he’ll be the one. 

Thank you for your reply, appreciate you. 

Good luck.

You would think NFL teams would attempt to isolate the backup QB from the starter just in case with whole position groups getting quarantined.

Attend meetings virtually, and have the backup QB run drills separately if at all.  It's not like they take a lot of reps at practice anyway.

Considering grabbing him and using as my FLEX.  Currently I'm FLEXing Crowder, who has actually done well this year, on a per game basis.  And, he gets Darnold back at QB (Flacco was killing him..).

 

Thoughts?

He doesn't seem to be available on Fan Duel.  Freeman is though.

Hinton is listed at QB on Fanduel at $6000

Activated as WR on Yahoo and NFL.com.....it's on

You have to wonder how this will effect N.O. offensive players?  Will Kamara even be in the game in the 2nd half?  Will M. Thomas need to do anything?

New Orleans is probably not going to score enough points to pull their starters.

1. Denver is going to try and slow the game down.  That will be aided by all of the running they're going to do.
2. Lost in all this focus on the Denver QB situation is that Taysom Hill isn't a good quarterback.  The Saints' offense looked decent last week because the Atlanta defensive line absolutely laid down.  If Denver's d-line puts up a fight, New Orleans won't get 8 yards on half back dives every 1st down.
3. Taysom put some snaps on tape.  The more film there is on him, the less effective he'll be.
4. Coaches tend to play conservative if a team they're playing against can't score.  I think Sean Payton should be smarter than this, but he has his own offensive issues to deal with.

How did the NFL get video evidence of the qbs all in a meeting unmasked? No matter, that is why the game is not rescheduled.

The Patriots lent them the tape.

Should I bench Patrick Mahomes for him?

Good thing I switched Mahomes back in at the last minute.

[SaintsInDome2006 400]

That.... was one of the more interesting games I’ve watched.

Den: 1/9/13/2/0, sk 1-1, 12 TYP.

The first time since Ryan Leaf that a team had more INTs than completions in a game.

[SaintsInDome2006 400]

1974 - the last time a team completed 0 passes.

::ALMOST::

- Hinton found Fant on an inside slant. Unfortunately.

Saints defensive record for fewest yards passing was 4 yards allowed vs the Cards in 1987, a game they lost.

 

[stonewall 647]

Well, the buildup was fun......historic, you might say.

Ended up not mattering for my teams in the 3 leagues I started him in. Won one, and lost two. But in the two I lost, he was flexed in over Brian Hill and Gio. In one of those games, I faced Mahomie/Hill combo,as well as AJ Brown. In the other I faced D. Henry/Fuller/J.Jefferson/Wash. D.

So, nothing ventured, nothing gained.....but that was UGLY

[SaintsInDome2006 400]

Absolute kudos to Hinton. Tough damn situation he walked into. As of Friday night he was just planning to be in street clothes today, he came in with only 2 games experience as a freshman QB at Wake freakin Forest and stood up amidst a ton of pressure. Hellofa performance today even if it wasn’t anything in FF.

Did Freeman take any snaps from center?

Yes I think so, especially after Lindsey went out, but I don’t think it was many. My guess is 1-5 snaps.

[weepaws 3,158]

Thank you. 

[Super Cubs 153]

with Steelers and Ravens being moved I'm curious why this game was not moved as well

[weepaws 3,158]

It’s not the Steelers vs Ravens.  

Thats why the Broncos vs Saints game wasn’t moved, imo.
