My same game parlay in on the Eagles, went with Hurts over Dak for my fantasy team. I hope i won't regret this, Chargers have the worst rush d in the league, so why not...

You might be ok with that one - Dak (and Cowboys in general) is sucking horribly so far. I chose CeeDee over Deebo so I'll probably regret it.

Christian McCalfrey aka 0.5 calf strain aka Rhuled out is finally back, even on a pitch count he should put some good numbers. Psychotics team is now officially in the playoff hunt.  Grin   (let's hope dj moore gets some open 1v1 looks today...fingers crossed).

Elsewhere, interesting to see what the Packers have in Jordan Love, how good is he, etc ? Given how bad the Chiefs' defense is/has been, i believe A. Jones and Dillon can keep Green Bay in the game, i won't be surprised if they cover the +7/+7.5

Cardinals are likely to be without both Murray and Hopkins, 49ers with a chance to get back to 0.5, Kittle and J. Wilson are also back.

How would you rate my trade, i got J. Taylor and two other bums for Jacobs, D. Johnson, and Stafford (he was my backup QB to Allen)? I feel like i won this trade and did not overpay for possibly the best remaining running back in the game. 200 total yards and 2TDs in his debut for my team, i mean not bad, not bad at all. Not to mention that two of the Colts' next four opponents are JAX and HOU, guaranteed smash spots imo.

In our league, i'm playing against the D/ST the Jets play against for second week in a row, and i think they will be the main reason to win again. Bengals 1pts and Colts 0pts (espn), the perfect trojan horse. Jets offense with 30+ pts in consecutive weeks playing the backup QB, and the backup of the backup.  Grin

J Taylor is a stud in ff.  You definately won that trade.  Knowing you have Allen giving up Stafford is affordable because he would always be on your bench anyway and the Bills are already through their bye.  Taylor just went off for 200 yards and 2 tds (yay me) on Thursday.  He is good for those at any given time, even though they were playing the jets 😅

Also, Henry Ruggs was released by the Las Vegas Raiders. Everyone, do not drink and drive.

A person died in the crash so I'd say losing his job is going to be the least of his problems. I'd be shocked if he can avoid serving time for this.

According to some speculations in social media, he might be facing up to 46 years in prison. He was also found to be having a gun while under the influence of alcohol. How would this affect the Raiders? I added Bryan Edwards in my team. He might be the new wr1.

Also, the Browns appear to have released Odell Beckham Jr. Why is this? I thought he was a very good and popular wide receiver for the Browns.

Doomed to see the future and unable to prevent it


White gave up one good drive before immediately getting injured.

Carter had 4 points on that drive and then 4.6 the entire rest of the game.

Thats what I get for breaking my rule about playing a jets player. Smiley

Who was the lucky person that won the waiver wire lottery for Carson Wentz. He might have made him +30 points for this game versus the Jets hehe. He was my first choice temporary replacement for Tom Brady who will be on a bye week.

Also, Henry Ruggs was released by the Las Vegas Raiders. Everyone, do not drink and drive. Getting massage and trying to get your dingdong touched only is okay. It will not end your career.



Former Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III was driving 156 mph with a blood alcohol content twice Nevada's legal limit before his car slammed into the rear of a vehicle that burned, killing a 23-year-old woman, according to prosecutors.

The Raiders released Ruggs late Tuesday, just hours after the crash and shortly after he was released from a hospital and booked into a Las Vegas jail.

The mystery on why the Cardinals are now presently becoming the underdog versus the 49ers has been answered. The coronavirus! A.J. Green is confirmed to have it and I speculate more players might be declared out for Sunday’s game. I made an early bet again on Cardinals -2 because I was afraid that it would change quickly to -3, -3.5. I pay again.

Yeah gonna be interesting as we get into the colder months who is in and who is out.  Not looking forward to tonight's game.  Hopefully it's not a complete snoozefest.  For some reason I just can't watch the jets play they are just that bad, they are almost as bad as my Giants  Cheesy

Hopefully colts run all over them with Taylor:)

The Colts are absolutely going to be running all over the Jets.  They are horrid vs the run.  I need to look up player props but I am positive that Taylor will run for 100+ yards and a TD.  I'll be traveling during the game but I will be praying for some good pts from Michael Carter now that he's in my starting lineup instead of Derrick Henry  Cry  I guess I can be thankful he's playing well of late.

Well selfishly this week I hope this week Michael Carter runs for -25 yards and has 7 fumbles and gets a half back pass and throws an interception.  I mean that isn't too much to ask for  Cheesy

With that being said Carter is a serious player with white under the center.  In a particular format he look like he is going to be a beast.  Short outs all day.

Lol of course you do. We putting any coin on our matchup btw ?  I completely forgot to check the prop bets before the game tonight. It was an easy call for Taylor going over 100 and a TD. Dudes at 175 and 2 TDs and it’s still midway through the 4th. Of course Carter isn’t doing much. I love how they threw to him non stop the last two weeks, very effective, one fn catch tonight. Amazes me when coaches are just that stupid.

I think you'll be good, your lucky you had him to plug in at this time. If it was a month ago you woulda been fucked! Smiley

Yeah true that. Still, losing Henry is a massive blow to the gonads. Also playing wheelz this week who’s in first place  (tho I do have high point total  Cool ) which is terrible timing.

I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
Yeah my other 2 league's I had Thomas stashed on those teams hoping to break him out for the second half of the season.  Lot of crazy injuries, arrests, sickness, personal leave, etc.  Gonna be survival of the fittest at the end of this season.
Playing FF during this season has been an eye opener for me, for the most part I only kept track of the injuries of the players of the Patriots and nothing more, and if the injured player was not Brady, Gronk or Edelman the effects were minimum, but playing FF has showed a reality it was in front of me and I never saw, the amount of players which become unavailable for one reason or another is huge and it is only now where it directly affects my chances to win a game is that I am realizing this.

To be fair a lot of quarterbacks who have sat behind someone and little to no tape is on does well in a one game sample.  But now that there is game film on him other teams d coordinators can key in on their strengths.  There usually is a reason why qbs like that don't see the field unless there are injuries.

Well he's gonna have some prime time tape after tonight. I am sticking with my assessment that he is solid and if the Jets D can hold the score down this will be a close game. I'm playing Carter when I have other options which I would never do with Wilson.

I watched quite a bit of the game last week and that White kid is legit.

Also, Micheal Thomas, who you had on your IR stashed, is out for the season after supposedly picking up another injury...

I guess I should have warned you guys that this was inevitable as I drafted him in all my leagues. Cheesy
