Rolling with crowder as my wr 3 and my opponent has Patterson as his wr 2. Full pt ppr. Hoping to come out at least a wash between the two. Just glad there’s a morning game though

Struggling between who to start at flex..C.Davis or Patterson.

Cpat in the tent for concussion check.

He's back in.... and a TD for Kyle Pitts!

did not realize this was a early game. I got Michael Carter in at flex.

I don't understand how Patterson can run through a Rosie O'Donnell-sized hole up the middle for 8 yards every time, while Davis is met 2 yards in the backfield on every carry.

It's like the O-line thinks Davis is an @$$hole or something, so they don't block for him.

Because they have to account for Patterson catching the ball. Not so much with Davis.

Davis is a Jag, Patterson is way more talented. Not that complicated.

Unless you drafted Patterson to all your teams, it must have been too complicated for you.

I'd call a guy who was outscored over his entire 9 year career by Derrick Henry last year a "jag."

And anyway, as I said, Patterson is sailing through the straits of Gibraltar; Davis doesn't even get a lighthouse.  Talent doesn't have a chance to enter into it.

I don’t have either on any teams. It is obvious how much better Patterson is as a talent. Davis gets a lot of touches so still has fantasy value, but he’s just not that good. Sorry…

Just as I say that Davis fumbles, perhaps he won't be receiving that many touches in the future...

[nobody 2,032]

Pitts isn't even playing tightend.  He's lining up at receiver.

That's one of the reasons Iiked him for dynasty.  I assumed they would eventually do this since he might have been the best receiver in the draft.

[nobody 2,032]

If Patterson doesn't run out of bounds there, Jets would probably have to start burning timeouts.

[nobody 2,032]

Davis TD!  

[DrG 94]

There is either some sort of let down or tell when Davis is in. Yes, he’s not Patterson, but he can catch a little out of the backfield too.
