I'm tempted to bench Aaron Jones. I would hate to win my fantasy game at the expense of watching my Niners lose.

The brutality of fantasy football. As a giant fan I try to steer clear of every player (as much as I can) from the NFL east. Don't want giants players in case they suck then I'm twice as pissed, and can't root for sheagle, cowgirl or foreskin players. But when in doubt go fantasy guy go!! Lol.

One thing about fantasy football that I learned early on was to never play with your heart but only your head. My first year or two I was drafting guys way too early like Brandon Jacobs because he went to college with me and Pierre Thomas because I knew him personally, and while I love those guys, I could have done better in my drafts. Same goes for the Bears...it's just too much stress to lose in FF, then see the Bears lose and then be double pissed at them lol.

I am against a very good team on week 3. The Mooncoiners! You might have this season’s MVP with Lamar, however, he cannot play when he is 100 years old like Brady hehehe.

I dropped some nonperforming assets and added Henry Ruggs, Zack Moss, Darnell Mooney and Tee Higgins. I hope the Qs are only minor injuries by Sunday.

Also, Texans +8 in their home stadium with fans and with David Mills who might be an underestimated quarter back. Should I bet this? It might also be under 42.5 points.

I like how ESPN gives us lines on our fantasy games so that way we can be super degen and bet on them. I would take Taco Corp at +13.5 against wheelz, who wants my action, lol. On second thought thats a pretty dangerous bet.

The only other option I have is Cordarrelle Patterson, who I just picked up on waiver.

I picked up Patterson as well on my other team and I'm gonna plug him in for Gordon this week.
I think I like to gamble too much!

I'm trying to find a way to put him my lineup this week, he's up against the Giants' D so he should have a good game.

I'm tempted to bench Aaron Jones. I would hate to win my fantasy game at the expense of watching my Niners lose.

Niners D is solid This is definitely the week to bench Jones.

Lol, I'm truly torn over it. On one hand I do expect the 9ers to shutdown the run game early on, forcing the pass game. But on the other hand; last week Jones' production was mostly check-down receptions, three of them for TDs. Rodgers will always have 33 as the outlet if there are no downfield options. I don't expect production like last week (at least I hope not,) but if he meets his projections I'll be happy. The only other option I have is Cordarrelle Patterson, who I just picked up on waiver.

The 9ers have a way of getting into Rodgers' head, he hasn't had a lot of success in San Francisco. We'll see, how he does tomorrow, but I think I'll stick with Allen for one more week before I decide to trade him for ~~Daniel Jones~~... Angry

Foiled by Hueristic once again!

NFL fantasy experts, who would you choose to have in your flex? Corey Davis or Terry McLaurin? My first choice is Corey Davis because it appears that there is a good partnership beginning to form with Zach Wilson. However, the Jets will be playing against the Patriots. Terry McLaurin I like also, however, the Redskins are playing their qb2 and the partnership might not be good as Wilson and Davis partnership. Who would you choose?

Who are 49ers fielding against Green Bay on Sunday, do they even have healthy RBs left on their roster?

BTW I was setting my choices for the waiver wire when I realized the priority order was all wrong, the ESPN website is kind of clunky when it comes to select the players you want for the waiver wire so I was thinking on doing it all over again when I realized you can change the order to whatever you want, just go to My Team->Pending Orders and you will see your waiver wire moves and the order in which they will be executed, to change the order just click and drag & drop your selection were you want it, I know for the experts this is probably not new but maybe the rest of the newbies will find this useful.

ESPN used to be a great site for Fantasy sports. I used to really dislike yahoo and only ran my leagues on ESPN. Over the years however Yahoo has easily taken over as the better of the sites. There are other decent sites out there, I hear a lot of good things about "Sleeper".

EDIT: & by the way I agree with you guys about the Peyton & Eli show on ESPN2. That is really fun to watch! Unless the Chicago Bears are playing, I will definitely be watching that over the regular broadcast.

Boooo this man!! Boooooo Cheesy

I hope those of you who were considering bench superstars like AJ Brown and especially Aaron Jones did not. AJ Brown didn't have the best game ( much better games ahead for him) but Corey Davis had an even worse game. This is why you never sit your superstars no matter what, or who they are facing. Hope everyone had a good week of fantasy. I finally had a bit of a bounce back week myself.

Hehehe I listened to your advice master. However, I had no choice because A.J. Brown is my only performing wide receiver. Anthonio Brown was always ignored by Brady on week 2. I reckon I am only lucky with McLaurin. He might be 0 points on week 3.

Good I am glad to hear it! I also own Aaron Jones but by the time the Monday night game came around, I had already more than wrapped up my game. Plus I also had Hockenson which piled on even more so. If you ever need any advice or suggestions feel free to DM anytime. That goes for any of you who are not as familiar with Fantasy Football or just want to bounce some ideas off someone who half way knows what they are doing.

And again I got almost completely shut out of the wire. Oh well. Fingers crossed that none of my regulars get into trouble.

Also it's my own fault that I cocked up the IR and let Hollywood go when I shouldn't have.

I have some good go-to gifs for shitposting intruders, just waiting for an excuse to use them.

This week I like KC to cover -6.5 or -7 and Las Vegas to cover -4..

I'll personally be rooting for the Rams to take out Brady, Mr. Perfect over there, but won't be betting money on it. Can't believe the line for that one is only -1 TB.

The late Sunday game, SF vs. GB should be pretty entertaining as well.

#49ers RB news from Kyle Shanahan: Jamycal Hasty is out for a while w/ an ankle injury, Elijah Mitchell is day to day with shoulder injury and Trey Sermon is in concussion protocol

They lost Mostert to a season-ending surgery following week 1 injury, i mean who do they have, Trenton Cannon? Ravens signed all the serviceable RB free agents that were still available.

Fuck, maybe go with Deebo Samuel for a week, dude is built like a running back. Grin

If I remember correctly I think Adrian Peterson and Todd Gurley were still available, but yes the options available are slim.

Have you seen the chances wheelz makes it to the playoffs? ESPN is now given them a 96% chance after week 2!

BTW I was setting my choices for the waiver wire when I realized the priority order was all wrong, the ESPN website is kind of clunky when it comes to select the players you want for the waiver wire so I was thinking on doing it all over again when I realized you can change the order to whatever you want, just go to My Team->Pending Orders and you will see your waiver wire moves and the order in which they will be executed, to change the order just click and drag & drop your selection were you want it, I know for the experts this is probably not new but maybe the rest of the newbies will find this useful.

Edit: As if the NO Saints did not had enough problems with a covid outbreak and the Ida hurricane not allowing them to play home, it seems the roof of their stadium was on fire, it seems everything is under control now, but it seems it is going to be one of those seasons in which everything goes wrong for the team.

https://www.si.com/nfl/lions/news/ceasars-superdome-roof-catches-on-fire

Yeah 96% after week 2, I think that is a little crazy. Can't really even tell until mid way through the season. The real games start when all the teams start going on byes and your bench plays a bigger part in the week to week games. Gotta love starting 2-0 though

Aaron Jones needs to run the whole length of the field and score a touchdown.... ~5 times. Which is not impossible, they're playing the Lions Grin

Well, he got 4 TDs, but fell far short of the yardage I needed. What a bastard! Cheesy

Are you guys watching the game with Payton and Eli? It's different, that's for sure, but I think I like it.

Yeah the eli/peyton broadcast is much better. It's a way better experience watching the games like that than watching the regular format with 2 announcers. It's like hanging out with your friends talking about the game as it's going on but with 2 people that know the ins and outs of every play and situation. Definately watching the rest of the season like this espn nailed it.

Yeah, that was fun. I agree, it was like watching the game with some very knowledgeable friends. I didn't miss the play by play broadcasts, the Mannings would talk about formations and coverages, and break down the defensive successes and breakdowns. Bret Favre was an awesome addition, I've always liked that guy and his presence brought up some fun stories.

Can you believe Eli snuck into a bar at age 17? What a hoodlum. I would have never done anything of that sort... (that's what I tell my kids, anyway.) Cool

I expect Elijah Mitchell to play this weekend, but yeah, that's a common theme for the Niners. We usually employ smaller, stout running backs, and plenty of them. One of the reasons they tend to not be as durable as the bigger guys on other teams. I was bummed to see Mostert go out for the season, but honestly I wasn't surprised.

Honestly at least from a fantasy perspective it doesn't matter. Unless you want practice team guys with 3 days of practice to lean on rb sitch in SF isn't good. Now speaking of deebo, gonna go out on a limb and say that niners are Def gonna look to air it out.
