Fucking Texans better score at least one point! The idiot I'm playing has the Pats defense and has over 30 points form them right now because of the shutout. Grrrr.

KT

 

[pyonir]

Haha I had the NE def in Yahoo (18 pts) going against a guy who had the Texans kicker (0 points).

 

[Aharami]

I had the Texans DST. Fracking zero points!

 

[zinfamous]

so....do I bench AJ Green against Denver, or gamble on a superman performance for the new dad?

I've got D Parker, Britt, and J Crowder currently starting, and can rotate in Golden Tate, or even Jimmy Graham or Alfred Morris into FLEX positions. Don't like the idea of the last two, obviously, but Tate has been bad so far this year and I'm not sure if it's worth gambling on him against the stud vs stud defense matchup.

Should I drop Adrian Peterson? Free agents available are slim pickings. Some say he will come back in 8 weeks, some say he will miss the rest of the entire fantasy season.

no more room on IR? shouldn't clog up any open spaces assuming you have that IR spot available.

I have KC's defense, 35 glorious points this week. I already won my game and still have Brees (2 QB league) and Ingram playing tonight.

 

[glenn1]

LeVeon Bell back now and Josh Gordon to come next week. Fantasy football is about to get a lot more fun for their owners.

 

[pyonir]

Josh Gordon to come next week .

Is that still going to happen? A warrant was issued for him because he didn't respond to a court order/summons to appear for a child support case...last I heard anyway.

 

[Caesar]

What D/ST to stream this week? I had Eagles D which served me well, but are on bye. Here are the ones available:
Miami vs. Bengals
Washington vs. Browns
Baltimore vs Oakland
Pittsburg vs KC
and several more. Should I get Washington D/ST?

 

[glenn1]

WAS or BAL. Personally I'd prefer taking my chances with the Ravens even against a talented Raiders team; the quality of the BAL defense is much better than that of the 'Skins. The Browns are a patchwork bit of spare parts right now but they're playing above their heads and will be highly motivated to eke out a win against a surprisingly vulnerable Redskins team who still are discombobulated offensively. This is their best chance at a win all season.

Thanks! Any thoughts on what QB to start? I have Big Ben, Matt Ryan and Andy Dalton. Andy has the easiest match-up while Big Ben faces KC and Matt Ryan faces Carolina.

Josh Gordon to enter rehab. Uh...sounds a bit late. LMAO

Hoping AJ Green has a good game tonight, he's my WR1 on 3/4 of my teams.
My fantasy fate this week partly rests on Dalton's primetime performance.

Anyone have an opinion on whether having Eifert back will help or hurt Green's numbers when he returns? I'm thinking it should be a wash since AJ Green may see less coverage even if Eifert "steals" some red zone opportunities from AJ.

Crap, own him in probably 2/3rds of my leagues.

And of course the obligatory "Hitler finds out Gordon is going to rehab" Downfall spoof.

[spacejamz]

Any reason not to accept this trade being proposed by another team? Forte for Matt Ryan? I already have Russell Wilson and Dak on my bench (started Ryan the past two weeks)... have Latavius Murry and Jeremy Hill for my RBs...

 

[glenn1]

Be careful not to spit out your drinks when you see the highlights this weekend because Kaepernick is getting the start. Has he learned how to check a defense and throw to an undefended receiver (or two)? Can he make a throw that lands within a dozen yards of his intended receiver instead of smacking an unsuspecting assistant coach in the back of the head? My bet is that Blaine Gabbert is still the best QB on the Niners which is just plain sad.

 

[pete6032]

Derek Carr at home vs. Kansas City Defense or Russell Wilson at home vs. Atlanta defense?

 

[zinfamous]

Derek Carr at home vs. Kansas City Defense or Russell Wilson at home vs. Atlanta defense?

Derek Carr because he's the # ~2 QB right now.

 

[KLin]

Gotta go with Russell Wilson at home coming off a bye against that crappy Falcon pass defense.

chiefs pass defense is #20. Falcons pass D has given up 14 touchdowns. Chiefs D has given up 7 touchdowns.

Supposed to be raining in Seattle on Sunday.

 

[glenn1]

Derek Carr at home vs. Kansas City Defense or Russell Wilson at home vs. Atlanta defense?

Carr, he's been more consistent and frankly better all year and although neither defense is that great KC is worse.

 

[eits]

Just accepted a trade:

I trade away:
Eli Manning
DeSean Jackson

I get:
Blake Bortles
Brandon Marshall

I need neither of them as a starter for their position, but I wanted Bortles for my OP slot.

So, my team (14-team league) currently is:

QB Tom Brady, NE QB
RB Spencer Ware, KC RB
RB LeSean McCoy, Buf RB
WR Antonio Brown, Pit WR
WR Sammie Coates, Pit WR
TE Zach Ertz, Phi TE
OP Blake Bortles, Jax QB
LB Craig Robertson, NO LB
DL Leonard Williams, NYJ DE
DB Johnathan Cyprien, Jax S
DP Jerrell Freeman, Chi LB
D/ST Steelers D/ST D/ST
K Matt Bryant, Atl K

BENCH WK 7 2016 SEASON WEEK 7
Bench Brandon Marshall, NYJ WR
Bench Isaiah Crowell, Cin RB
Bench Bobby Wagner, Sea LB
Bench Danielle Hunter, Min DE
Bench Dolphins D/ST D/ST
Bench Gary Barnidge, Cle TE
Bench Marcus Cooper, Ari CB
Bench James White, NE RB
Bench Chris Hogan, NE WR
Bench Tahir Whitehead, Det LB

I think my team looks pretty fucking boss.

 

[ControlD]

I think my team looks pretty fucking boss.

Yeah, that lineup looks solid for a late season run but you are going to be struggling at WR for the next 4-6 weeks with Ben out. Even with as good a year Antonio put together last season, he was next to worthless without Rothlesberger playing. 30+ points per week became more like 6-10.

 

[eits]

I thought about trading him, but it's a keeper league. So, I won't.

I got Sammie Coates as insurance.

It's also PPR, so there's that, too.

I'm hoping I can sustain the blow and end up on top. With Brady out for the first four games, my team is currently 2-4.

Fingers crossed.

This image cracks me up every time I click on this thread.

Man, loving my David Johnson pick this year. Kinda wish I could deal him, but I'm so damn stingy (usually to my own detriment, but whatever)
