No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.

I am so mad that I didn't get him in one of my leagues. I could use a WR2 that can score about 13 points in 1PPR.

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
Tired: Josh Gordon had 11 targets? Nice.

Wired: wait 4 catches on 11 targets what is Kizer doing

He'll be fine with all them ~air yards~. First game was a push on the start him or sit him out of the gate and it'll only get better from here.

I was sitting in my office on that drizzly afternoon listening to the monotonous staccato of rain on my desk and reading my name on the glass of my office door: regnaD kciN

Have Ertz in my league where I'm #1 seed and had my bye this week.
Have Gronk in my other league where I'm #5 and am playing the #4 guy this week for the last playoff spot

Kizer is horrendous, luckily he is on the Browns so no one blinks an eye at how bad he is

did you watch the [Raiders] game?

The answer to this question is always "yes," and I have the scars on my wrists to prove it.

There was a logic to my call: Carr doesn't do volume to his top-off speedsters (see: Cooper), and for some reason Carr seems to hate Roberts. So that just left the third WR on the field, which happened to be Holton even though Holton is a bad player.

Hah! I watched it too, obviously.

As a dynasty owner of Jalen Richard I am extremely distraught at all the loving fumbles. I really want that kid to turn out great, but jesus man could he maybe stop muffing every punt return?

OTOH I'm pretty happy to see how Walford stepped up while Cook was out. 4 for 4 and 57. I even like saying Clive Walford's name.

Walford. Wallllll foooooorrd.

He muffed three freaking punts. I hate being a Raider fan. Freaking yelling at the screen "JUST DON'T CATCH IT," and then watching him try to catch it and drop it again. Why?!

There may still be a chance it is downgraded to a fine after the appeal. Gronk doesn't have a history of these kind of hits and guys like Kiko Alonso and AJ Green didn't get suspended earlier in the year over their bullshit hits.

This was a worse play imo Shouldn't need a history for what he did to be a suspendable offence.

But you're right that the NFL's wheel of justice is totally unpredictable and inconsistent, so it's possible he ends up not missing time. I doubt it though.

That was a ref call though. Green started a fight by grabbing a dude from behind and slamming him to the turf. 100% should've been suspended for that.

If that was pre-draft and you don't check league settings before the draft, that's on you.

That said, it's a crappy change.

He’s active, fire up your ABs.


I’m only up by 4 with AB left to go against JUJU. Would’ve had to plug in Tyler Kroft if he sat.

So naturally Kroft will outscore AB and JUJU outscores AB by 5.

While you should check settings before drafting, that is a monumentally lovely thing for a commissioner to do without telling anyone. If I was in a league with a commissioner who did that, I wouldn't play in that league next year.

A commissioner in one of my leagues put a cap on # of transactions per week (at loving 4) this year without telling anyone, a setting that is pretty loving obscure so I didn't notice, but can have a huge impact on a given week. Unfortunately this is my BML and I will not be playing in this league next year.

It’s really not a big deal and doesn’t affect your weekly strategy. Just sucks learning that this late in the season.
