Looks like I'm the only one going for the Browns here, I think they get the job done later today and I'm also confident that they cover the -2.5 spread so I took that in a single bet. For my parlay I got the Browns ML, Ravens ML, Bucs ML, Saints ML and Giants ML. Two games are a risk in the Browns and Giants but I think they can both win and add some value to my parlay. Good luck with your bets!

I voted for the Bills on the poll, I bet the 1st half -1.5 for the Browns however hehehe.

@Hueristic. Pick the Cowboys to win 1st half hehe.

In any case, MVP candidate will play tomorrow hehehe.

Close but no cigar, are you going to double down on the second half?

Upsets keep coming today, Dolphins with a second straight win, 10.5 points underdogs in this one. I just tuned in for the last drive, Colts had a chance to win but Hoyer threw twice deep balls in double coverage instead of going for a 1st down. They had time and timeouts, awful play-calling if you ask me.


Anyway, how do you see the late game Vikings @ Dallas? O/U 47.5 both teams avg over 25ppg this season but without Thielen, i'm not sure if it's going to be a high scoring game. Cook had a subpar game last week with under 100 yards and zero TD.
Unexpected performance by the Dolphins I thought they'll collapse again on the second half but they're able to hold the Colts until the end. I was able to get the live odds at 2.1 to win the first half.

For the match later tonight the total moved to 48.5 now I took the over since the Cowboys have been scoring a lot at home and the Cowboys spread.

Today is sick, Cooper Kupp has ZERO catches and Barkley got me 4 points!

I have no clue whats going to happen tonight but I hope Cousins does something or I could lose even though Kirk gave me 30+ points and ronad jones gave me 18. Funny part is he was at 20 and then fumbled and thats when all my guys stopped producing points. Lol


I would still pick the over on the Cowboys/Vikings if i had to choose but I have Zero clue what the fuck is up with today.

Man, what a crazy day.

Hauschka missed a FG to tie the game and Browns got away with a win (vella85 gets the HOF honors being the only one who picked CLE).

Saints got trumped at home by the Falcons 9:26 and Chiefs and Titans' ending of the game was simply insane. I don't want to spoil it for you, just watch the final two minutes.

You have that right! I don't remember the last time Hauschka missed 2 field goals in a game let alone 2 out of 2!

New Orleans destroyed my second team horribly, I played Brees and Thomas and thought I had a lock. Doh

Thank you, like I said I really liked the Browns this week and I did okay with them covering the -2.5 spread which I'm glad I got on early as it was pushed out to -3 and it ended up being a push in the end. There was a lot of drama in this game which had me on edge at times but I'm glad I got the win. I'm a little upset with the parlay bet as the Saints and Giants both let me down and thought that they were better shots at winning them the Browns lol. I have now picked the Eagles and Browns in the polls when no one really gave them a chance.

I've decided to make a game of it, whoever sets the best lineup wins some merit.

Here's my 7 player lineup for those positions:

QB: Jameis Winston, TB
RB1: Aaron Jones, GB
RB2: Devonta Freeman, Atl
WR1: Michael Thomas, NO
WR2: Mike Evans, TB
TE: Hunter Henry, LAC - he played already, but didn't quite meet his projected points, so leaving him in isn't exactly cheating
FLEX: David Johnson, Ari


Best lineup from those provided in that post.

OK guys, here is my lineup that I really need a win. 1/2PPR

The pack is tight I'm in 3rd with a 5-4 record playing the 8th place with a 4-5 record.
...


I'm torn on Flex and RB2 and Wr2 I guess mostly, even though I don't have alpot of faith in Goff or Cousins and have been playing with the Idea of dropping one and streaming Jacoby Brissett( Questionable) v/s Miami or even Ryan Tannehill VS KC

Keep that starting lineup except change Ronald jones for tevin Coleman.  The 49ers run enough to start both breida or coleman.  Coleman has some electric plays.  Any of the Tampa rbs should be benched.  They throw way to much.  Good luck with whoever you do start.

Edit: kittle is doubtful so I would probably bench him today.

Yup worked Out if kittle sits lol, I have been struggling with the jones/coleman choice this morning. I just can't take another 2 point day from coleman like he did to me last time i played him (I need some consistency even if its 8-10 points). I think I'm going to roll with jones as a bit of a gamble with a higher floor IMO.
My other team i have to decide whether to play Damian Williams over Ingram or Carson (already played Eckler). Tough choices this week, Carsons fumbles are really concerning me.

I'm going with a simple 3 game parlay for this week. I have Bills ML, Giants ML and Chiefs -5.5 total odds at 7.49

Trusting the forum pick here, Giants were decent in the first 3 quarters against Dallas and Mahomes is back. I also have Singletary, Tate and Tyreek Hill in my fantasy team.

gl everyone!

Yeah it's always a wait and see strategy depending on how everything falls. One league I went rb in the first 3 rounds only because that's how it fell to me.  In my other draft it was rb then 3 straight rounds of wide recievers.  No matter what I usually always wait on quarterback.  And kicker and defense last.  Never draft them early then the last 2 rounds.  Wr/rb/te depth is much more important than a kicker or defense

Agreed, I never fight over qb's, except the first year Peyton went to Denver I drafted him first round and it fucked up the entire draft and it was the best move ever. Cheesy



However, there might be something that we have overlooked that the sportsbooks know. Why would they open the Browns as the -2.5 favorites? They might begin turning their season around hehehe!

Browns was strong in the 1st half, on their home stadium versus the Sea Hawks and the Rams. Bet 1st half -1.5?


I linked the reasoning for that a few posts back.

New poll up.

[253] BUFFALO
[254] CLEVELAND

Browns have zero votes so far (0-4).
I was one of the few who backed the Eagles to win in Buffalo, the only one who went with Steelers last week, but hell i'm not spending a single penny on the Browns. At this point in the season, they're just the complete wreck of a team. So many things have to go to perfect for them to even have a chance against Buffalo and even so, Freddie Kitchens might screw things up with his dumb playcalling and poor/newbie game managing skills. Browns will lose again!

So far the vote is unanimously for Buffalo... We can't all be wrong, can we? We usually only have 6 votes a poll, but if someone else steps in and votes for Cleveland, make yourself known so you can partake in the glory if you are right. I'm thinking Buffalo is a solid bet, and I'm leaning toward taking the under...

Taking Buffalo at +2.5 and an under at 40.5 yields a 4:1 payout (if they both win), pretty good. I'm taking them.

edit: you can't parlay 2 concurrent bets. anyway, its still a 2:1 on both roughly if they both win.

QB definately cousins there.  Goff is a bad play this week (I have home too and am highly disappointed).  Kirk over Lockett I'm fine with.  That pass defense kirk is going to face is nonexistent.  Toss up but I'd stick with kirk.  I would switch running backs, I dont like any Tampa running back unless forced because of byes.  In this case I'd take Coleman over Jones, tamp just passes way too much to stick a tb RB in your lineup.  Other than that.....how did you get kelce, kittle and henry on your team!!! That's a deep TE position to be in

My draft position I decided to corner the the position (1st pick barkley then kittle/kelce in a row)but have been unable to make a trade for one and scooped henry off the wire to hedge my position. Smiley

Sucks i can't play them all. I was hoping to get Melvin Gordon for one but no luck on that, rb is just too scarce this year.

That's bold to wait for the wrap around snake for round 4/5 to get your first reciever and/or second receiver or rb.  Makes it easy when both are playing good to be able to use one in the flex but I like taking rb/wr early and often in the draft.  Can never have enough rbs or wr as byes and injuries come around.  Whiff on an early rb (like damien William's or kerryon johnson) this year and not grabbing more til the 7th and 8th rounds is a bit scary.  Coleman was a good later round scoop up though.  I like him in this one

Yeah, no balls no glory!
It actually took me by surprise as I've never had first pick before. Cheesy

I grabbed Locket and Kupp and woods next 3 picks and have been scraping RB2's all year. It was an interesting strategy I wanted to try as all of workhorse the rb's were gone by then. RB by committee is becoming the rule and finding dependable feature backs is a rarity that will only get worse IMO.

The chargers looked anemic all game (but at least Henry got me 11 points and Eckler got me 11 on my other team, but I was facing Gorden who put up 19 so shit! And I had Raiders williams on my other team who only put up 4...i think hes gonna be on the wire next week).

The chargers play calling was horrendous on that final drive (alot of the game as well, they usually use screens to great effect but Gordon up the middle really grabbed a ton of chunk plays). They had 3 timeouts and a minute to drive up and kick a field goal and didn't even try to get a first down. Nothing but hail mary's even after they got a free first down on a penalty. Their offensive play calling coach need to be sacked. But they did cover the over barely.
