My Fanduel entry this week sucked. Wasn't even paying attention and picked a cut kicker.. ugh.

No need to worry friend. KC's missing their key ILB means NE will most likely to pound the ball and kill clock.

Start worrying, the Pat's only possession was 3 screen for 4yds then 2 incomplete passes, meanwhile KC goes ahead 7-0, Smith completes a pass just inches off Revis's fingertips to the 3yrd line and Charles goes in for the score, the Pat's need at least a few first downs if nothing else to give the D a rest..

So... sankey and Gerhart is on my WW. I'm #2 and debating on getting one of them.

PPR league, where people are short on RB. We have 2 RB slots and a flex.

My RB are Forte, Ellington and Pierre Thomas. I normally plug in WR in my flex, since i have maclin, cruz, andre johnson, Crabtree, Cooks. So i have time for Sankey to develop into something.

Also is Kirk Cousins a drop-able person?

Both the Titans and Jaguars are terrible options, but out of the two, Sankey is the better long term pickup. As for dropping Cousins, no he isn't. He still has weapons and the yardage, you need to wait for more bad games.

Cousins just had a bad day. It happens. I don't see him as a top 5 QB the rest of the season. Top 10 maybe. He will get points. Garbage time points count.

We doing another fanduel this week?

I have rivers and cousins. Can only play 1qb. I don't think cousins can outplay rivers. Good thing I didn't start him last week.

Keep Cousins on the bench. QB injuries happen. Tough that both have the same bye week. Maybe you can trade Cousins in a few weeks if he puts up good numbers.

Nope, everything went as planned. Pats pounded the ball early but KC did it better. That forced Brady to throw, and with Brady sitting dead last at PFF's accuracy ratings going into week 4 (it's now Foles lol)... you saw the results. Kelce had 16~ points, whoopdedoo. Not even close to 32.

BTW where are all the Brady lovers in this thread now? The stats don't lie, he sucks this year, mainly because his team = the worst Pass Blockers in the league at -26.7 that is partly to blame. Oddly, Under Pressure stats show he's middle of the league in Accuracy (60%) so not sure why he's so bad when NOT Under Pressure; he's seeing the 8th highest Pressure % in the league; the only guys with higher pressure and better accuracy are Russell Wilson (3rd most pressure, 80% accuracy) and Austin Davis (4th most pressure, 70% Accuracy). I would only have him as a bye week backup at this point and even then there should be better WW options. He could turn it around because this appears to be a mental issue, i.e. since his pressure has increased so much he's worried even when NOT under pressure. But all in all, his league worst Pass Blocking is just a horrible sign of things to come for that offense unless they can turn it around. I would recommend packaging Gronk (and Shane Vereen non-PPR) in a multi-player trade if they're on your rosters. I like to steer clear of players with bottom Oline play so far: Jags-Bucs-Pats-Raiders-Bills-Jets-Philly in order of egregious awfulness. Luckily Philly's line gets a huge boost this week so they should rise...

Foles owners may want to have a backup plan since Foles is now less accurate than Brady after the worst game of his career. Still start him b/c of his weapons; I'm hoping that it's just the results of his worst 5 Pass Blocking. RT Lane Johnson coming back this week will be a HUGE sigh of relief for Philly fans and plugs 1 of 3 turnstiles on the OLine and they have to survive for the next 4 games until best-in-the-league Mathis returns (and Kelce a few weeks later). Their 2 toughest in that stretch are NYG (very good this year) luckily at home, and then @AZ. AZ's pass coverage/pass rush is almost as shitty as Foles' accuracy but they are stout against the run which could expose him. StL this week is a nice break and @Houston doesn't worry me. All in all, I'd stash a backup this week and fire him up if Foles does shitty against pushover StL.

TN's run blocking has actually been decent, they are top 10 (so far). We'll see if it continues, the problem is their QB play has been awful, just awful, so that makes them 1 dimensional atm. With Sankey, the cream should rise to the top, he is grading out like a boss (+2.7) while Greene is in the red (-1.1). The Oline is 2nd worst in penalties but that should (can only) improve. At this point, Whiz should just focus the offense around Sankey since the QB play is negating his explosive receivers. I'm high on Sankey if you couldn't tell.

Gerhart, no freaking way for the same reason I thought his draft ADP was ridiculous - it's the Jags Oline who were last in 2013. 1 year isn't going to make that much of a difference aside from exceptions like the Ravens. They are dead in the water when it comes to run blocking and that trend will continue.

Any glaring errors here? I'm inclined to bench Asiata in favor of Brian Quick due to the fact I don't think Asiata is going to keep it up.
