I'm thinking along the lines of McCoy and Bradshaw just because the Steelers defense is terrible this year and Richardson is nursing an injury (as usual)

[Phoenix Dark]

Being injured this long, he has had plenty of time to look at the playbook, watch film, etc. And after seeing Cousins start it's clear he's not the guy so short term job security is no longer an issue. RG3 really has no excuse now. Yea it'll take a couple games for him to get back up to speed or whatever, but after that?

I hate seeing a black QB go out like this but he did it to himself. At least with Geno Smith you know he's simply not NFL talent, but RG3 seemed to have it all. Arm, mobile, pocket passing, seemed smart, etc. Dude was on the verge of being a superstar. But now Russell Wilson, Andrew Luck, etc have clearly surpassed him by a mile.

He was too obsessed with the fame and the name and forgot about the game. That rhyme describes many players over the years: The Boz, David Boston, Haynesworth, soon to be Clowney.....etc etc.

At the Pro level unless you have superior natural talent (Megatron) or a freaky intellect (Manning) you are doomed if you don't put that work in.

Edit: I'll give you Wilson but RG3 was never considered to be a better player than Luck.

There was plenty of RG3 v Luck debate in 2011 and 2012 bruh. RG3 had a better rookie year as well. The Colts wanted Luck from day one but I remember a lot of folks going back and forth on the issue.

[CatsCatsCats]

I'm on the fence this week on Stafford or Tannehill. Thoughts?

Also, Jimmy Graham 

[Phoenix Dark]

Megatron might not play, all our TEs are injured, no run game...Atlanta sucks but I wouldn't start Stafford unless I had to. Miami will blow out the Jags so I'd start Tannehill.

[CatsCatsCats]

Yeah, I've basicaly been planning on waking up at the ass crack of dawn and seeing Megatron's status to make the decision, but I may just go Tannehill. My concern would be if Miami slams Jax too hard Tannehill's fantasy day might be kinda mild, though he's shown he can run too. :mysteryghost

Bortles looks terrible he tried as hard as he could to give my Browns the game (3 ints), but yeah....Tannehill over Stafford this week.

[Am_I_Anonymous]

I would like to just keep everybody in the loops. Pierre Garcon still sucks balls this year. That is all, K thx.

[CatsCatsCats]

Emmanuel Sanders

[Phoenix Dark]

Emmanuel Sanders

14.40 points for me already. I'm good for the night

[CatsCatsCats]

Oh no sir, you had just had the first course, we're eatin good tonight

[Phoenix Dark]

[TakingBackSunday]

fucking steelers got rid of him

@VIC Tafur
Olson said Thompkins getting more time than Butler last week also has to do with "production in practice"

Vic Tafur @VIC Tafur · 8m 8 minutes ago
“@Brice_Butler: he really said that?” >> yeah, transcript should be on The Official Site of the Oakland Raiders soon or I can email it to you


olsen is a piece of shit, thompkins is worthless. dude is the new dhb, even wears the same number. yet somehow got more snaps and targets, yet produced less than butler. but supposedly he's better in practice lol

Welp yesterday was bittersweet.

Started Rivers...he got me 23 points...that's decent

Hilman on the bench got 15 ....damnit

[CatsCatsCats]

Hillman would have had more too if Juwan Thompson didn't vulture his TDs.

[Brehvolution]

Manning got me 28!

SD defense got me -4.8

I have started rivers since week 2 over cam newton and I have not felt bad about it. Rivers is on fire this year.

[Human Snorenado]

Branden Oliver struggled to almost 10 points for me. Considering my other RB options are Doug Martin and either Ingram or Thomas though I guess I'll take it.

I have Oliver, I like him to be there next Darren Sproles even when Matthews and his gimp ass hamstrings get back on the field. Solid guy to have for this season.

[Human Snorenado]

I've had him for 2-3 weeks now. He's solid and definitely better than my other options. Considering that my RB1 is Forte, I'm not complaining too much.

I have McCoy

 

[Human Snorenado]

My team pretty much has blossomed once Megatron went out, since I have Golden Tate. Like you, I also have Garcon, so when Megatron gets back my team is probably going back to the shitter.

I have the exact same quarterback situation + starting history.

Thinking like a former NFL pro.

Pretty simple math man.

Chargers have to throw because their line sucks. Rivers is now in a system that is more dink and dunk then long ball, he has a capable group, and he is driven to have an awesome year.

Newton doesn't have the line nor the rb's/receivers to allow him to be cam.

[Human Snorenado]

And yet the Panthers will STILL probably win the NFC south this year

[CatsCatsCats]

Want to drop either Michael Crabtree or Wes Welker to pick up a kicker for next weeks bye today so I don't have to waste a waiver on it, haven't played either all season, which do you think gets cut?

[Mr. Gundam]

Welker. They aren't using him much.

[CatsCatsCats]

Yeah, I think I'm leaning that way

[Am_I_Anonymous]

Yeah, I think I'm leaning that way

Sanders does everything he does, only better. Drop Welker.

[CatsCatsCats]

Made it so, Dawson for Welker makes me happy. Can drop Prater for next week's waiver now

[Mr. Gundam]

10am games are fine.

6:30 am games are WTF.

[CatsCatsCats]

Apparently yahoo thought the same, took em awhile to get the stats goin. Lions aren't looking their best so far..

[CatsCatsCats]

Damn. Glad I went Tannehill

[Beezy]

I play daily fantasy sports and a bunch of different sites recommended using Stafford this week. Bullet dodged.

[CatsCatsCats]

Oh great, my opponent has Golden Tate

[Mr. Gundam]

WHOA PD MIGHT PULL OFF A WIN TODAY!!!!

[Mr. Gundam]

CMON BEER DUDE KICKER WIN IT FOR PD!!!

[Mr. Gundam]

Wow, they blew it but got a second chance. Damn.

[Beezy]

Falcons

[CatsCatsCats]

Prater

[Human Snorenado]

Golden Tate

[Mr. Gundam]

Prater

Excuse me, he is now known as BEER DUDE KICKER.

[Mr. Gundam]

And now I will excuse myself from the internet and prepare for another excruciating Seahawks defeat.

[CatsCatsCats]

Man, Stafford has issues but he sure can play when it's do or die

[TakingBackSunday]

Fuck I picked the Falcons

[Am_I_Anonymous]

And now I will excuse myself from the internet and prepare for another excruciating Seahawks defeat.
