Landry looks like the most talented player on the Phins offense and it feels like he never gets good looks. They should be running crossing patterns and short outs all day with the dude yet that offense just looks so underperforming.

Yeah, this is the problem. They fire Philbin and there's literally nobody better behind him that's likely to get promoted (tho I suppose if Lazor gets promoted we might get someone else calling the plays.) They really need to fire the DC too to really help Miller so hopefully they're not playing from as far behind all the time.

Dolphins need to clean house. The locker room and FO reeks of Jeff Ireland.

The Irish can't drink. What you always have to remember with the Irish is they get mean. Virtually every Irish I've known gets mean when he drinks.
Say some reporting that Coyle will be the first one to go, possibly followed right away by Philbin.

It stands to reason that my teams would do well on everyone else's poo poo week. I'll take it though!

A big part of my success was due to Tavon Austin's 2 TD game. I picked him up this week because my WR situation is that bleak, but he really exceeded my expectations. Could anyone who's watched the Rams this year tell me if he'll be a reliable WR2 going forward, or were yesterday and week 1 flukes?

When is it time to start worrying about Odell Beckham Jr?

It's a weird case. He's averaging 13.75pts/week in 0.5ppr so he's obviously not performing poorly but essentially he's had two hit weeks and two misses. He's getting around ten targets per game but him and Eli just don't seem on the same page at all.

Am I overthinking it?

I need Calvin Johnson to score me 4.8 to go 1-2 this week, well could go 2-1 but the guy in the other league has CJr and Stafford and is down by 20 something.

He'll get back on track. It was just a lovely week for WR1's. Antonio Brown, Julio, OBJ all scored jack poo poo. I wouldn't start worrying yet, maybe if he's still underperforming in two weeks then start to worry.

Getting close to dropping Melvin Gordon. I hate the RB situation in SD. Gurley's on the waiver wire, thinking of picking him up.

Holy poo poo yes, pickup Gurley. He should not be on any wires. Nobody better to drop than Gordon though?

All my dropped players had great games: Woodhead, Gurley, V Jackson, Yeldon... Decker to a lesser extent.

Anyway, I'm dropping Gordon for Gurley (SD's run game is too erratic and Woodhead is looking like the go-to guy). V Jax is looking tempting going against the Jags next week, and I'm also pretty tempted to make room for Martellus Bennett. I feel like he could be a good alternative if Graham is underused further.

Yes, that's what he does. Tempts you to put him into your lineup and then gets a 5.

Im trying to buy low on Lamar Miller with what I hope are impending coaching changes. Its a standard no ppr league. This is my team, starters are noted.

*Andy Dalton
Ryan Tannehill

*Latavius Murray
*Karlos Williams
*Todd Gurley
Andre Ellington
David Johnson
Duke Johnson

*Julio Jones
*Randall Cobb
Steve Johnson
Brian Quick

*Eric Ebron

I feel like both Arizona RBs are expendable and that I could also use more WR depth.

thoughts?

Which WRs are available on your league's WW?

edit: Also:
I have an extra QB (Wilson) and am strongly considering dropping him for one of the following:

Yeldon @TB
V Jackson v JAX
D Martin v JAX
M Bennett @ KC
Gordon v PIT
T Austin @ GB
C Johnson @ DET
B Sankey v BUF
Dalton @ SEA (handcuffs - there are a few players in my league coming out of this week with basically no QB)

So many drat options right now... Leaning towards Bennett since I'm still not too confident in Seattle's (Darell Bevell's) usage of Graham, and I think that Bears-Chiefs game will be a shootout with Chicago hungry to gain some momentum.

Traded McCoy, Peyton, and Crowell for Lacy and Jordan Matthews, who I rostered immediately for this week. Of course, I benched VJax and Spiller, who would of netted me 50 pts together, 30 points over my roster.

This fantasy football stuff sure is crazy.

Do not drop Russell Wilson. Try and find a trade partner.

I've been trying all season. Nobody wants him and I'm relatively confident that nobody will pick him up.

Because Ingram's touchdown was called back and then vultured by Khiry, I'm up only 21.5 points on my opponent who has Wilson and Ebron still to play. I'm hosed.

Edit: Also, played SD defense instead of Atlanta. 15 point differential there.

How much is Philbin (who is out) and how much us Lazor (whom I know nothing about the status)?

If Lazor is still calling 70 passes a week it won't matter.

Would you rather have Antonio Gates or Delanie Walker for the rest of the season? No ppr, standard scoring. Is Walker droppable or should I try and work out a trade? I'd love t o package him and maybe Hill for a running back I can actually rely on, but I am doubtful I'll be able to get much better with those two guys.

Pretty much the opposite IMO. When Miller gets the ball he's looked drat good but MIA hasn't made any effort to establish the run in any of the games they've played so far.

The Phin's offense should be run to set up the pass but instead they spread out four receivers and expect Tannehill to make several reads on each play. It makes it hard for guys like Stills, Landry, and Matthews to do anything after the catch because half the time there's five or six DBs hanging out back there.

Hill had a TD every 3 carries last game and you want to sell now!? I have him in 2 leagues, so glad to actually get some value out of him, but I did good flexing Gio in my full PPR league. RBBCs suck, I hate them.

After 2 weeks where he totaled 2.2 points combined, yes. I figure his value isn't going to be much higher. Three TDs is great, but you can't count on a third of his ~10 carries being TDs every week. He just isn't getting nearly enough volume (at least, not right now - maybe he gets more after this week) for me to trust him at all and I wish I never drafted him.

I'm in the exact same boat, and find myself eyeing him as an add or maybe replacement for one of my current squad of Cooper, Maclin, Wright, Hilton & Benjamin.
