Does anyone dare start Denver's defense next week against Chicago? I know they just gave up 70 points but they're playing the Bears whose offense may be imploding even worse. There's not many other match ups available that really jump out at me. Maybe Cleveland against Baltimore? They seem to have a pretty good defense this year.

Browns D has looked pretty good and everyone on the Ravens offense is dead.

I would do Cleveland. Bears are a nice matchup for defenses but I'm not starting any defense that just gave up 70 points no matter who they were playing.

It was the exact same situation as last week. He was given a day off of practice for his minor injury and McVay said that day he was going to play both weeks.

Survived the Mostert-ening by a solid 15 points. Helps I also had Tyreek but gut calls starting Mattison and Conner definitely helped.

And by gut calls I mean losing Chubb made them my RB 2a and 2b behind Pollard.

Yeah, that's the problem with them doing away with the "probable" tag. Questionable now encompasses guys who are almost certain to play, guys who are unlikely to play, and everyone in between. Gotta read the rotoworld updates.

Ah. Yeah Rotoworld isn't what it used to be but it's still a useful resource for player updates. And follow Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport on Twitter. They both have their faults as reporters (especially Schefter when he does nothing more than regurgitate things that agents tell him) but their late Saturday/early Sunday reporting on actives/inactive is very valuable.

Squeaked out a win thanks to that Davante Adams outburst but only because I lucked into playing another team that also had a bad week. Seemed like everyone either scored 80 or 150 this week

In one of my leagues a dude scored over 250 points :stare: (cheating though, it has juiced DST scoring so the Bills alone had like 50 points plus Mostert and Tyreek)

Just got a trade offer in my superflex dynasty league where I'm tanking.

Give: Sam Howell, 2024 late 1st, 2024 late 2nd

Get: Justin Fields

I'm not sure about Howell long term, but I should probably just stay away from Fields, right? Even if I really wanted him I think that might be a bit too much to give up.

If you are tanking, any trade where you give up a pick is a bad idea.

I asked the same question a few days ago and the consensus seems to be that you can jettison him with no regrets.

You can get similar week to week production from Roschon Johnson and Tyjae Spears as you are from Najee at the moment, 2 players who are currently playing behind starters on the depth chart and are on fantasy rosters for upside later in the season.

You could also drop Najee for Jaylen Warren on that same basis and improve on what you’re currently getting week to week..

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

I have Burrow and Tua, and drat I was really hoping for a good game from Burrow because I'd love to trade him. Tua is the clear better option at this point, and barring injury, I only need to worry about another QB when he's on the bye. I had drafted Tua just as a backup for Burrow because I was concerned about his calf, and now I'm looking to just dump Burrow on someone. I guess I'll hang on for another week or two and see if he can improve his stock and try to trade him to someone desperate for a QB.

I kind of feel bad for other guys in my league. The #1 and #2 scoring teams are playing each other, and the #3 (me hopefully after tonight) and the #4 guy is my opponent. Putting up 130-140 points and still losing is tough.

I’d rather this happen than what appears to be happening for the second year in a row in our friend league. Current champion’s football knowledge kinda just stopped at like 2019 and his teams always reflect that. Dude snuck into the playoffs at 7-7 and then skated by everyone pooping their pants in the playoffs. Now he is currently 3-0 with basically the same team as last year and with scores of 96, 110, and 130 because apparently he just has some hex where everyone playing him just drops their pants and bends over for him.

The first place in my money league is starting Dak over Fields (and he has Love rostered).

My lack of WR depth is going to burn me very soon. Watson hasn't played yet, Mike Williams lost for the season, and Tee Higgins is looking like a repeat of last year; boom/bust and no consistent floor.

I should probably get a package going to one of the RB needy teams and see what I can get going. I've got Jakobi Meyers who is looking good after coming back from concussion, so maybe I have a bit of runway here.

I would not feel good starting Dak over Fields. I might just drop Fields for Russ though. Or Daniel Jones vs Seattle

Raheem Mostert scored 1 rushing touchdown in week one. 2 in week two. 3 in week three. At this current rate, the only thing we need to ask ourselves is what is going to happen during Miami's bye week? Since it's week 10 of the NFL season, will he somehow still score 10 TDs, or will he have to wait until week 11 to score 10, thus breaking the matching TDs/weeks phenomenon? Or will he skip from 9 in week 9 to 11 in week 11?

In any case, using this model we can clearly see that he'll tie Ladainian Tomlinson's rushing touchdown record in week 7 and will surpass it in week 8. If my math is correct he should finish with between 143 and 171 TDs on the year.

Seattle's pass rush is terrible so Jones might actually have time to throw. Look what the Panthers managed to put up against them.

Absolutely cutting bait this week. I have Tua so there's no way going forward I start Fields over him. And I need more WR depth. Plus I'm putting in a waiver claim for Achane despite having CMC, Pollard, Washington, and Allgeier (we only start 2WR so I don't carry as much depth there).

And I decided I'm going Bucs over Jags for defense this week. I don't trust screwiness of the London game despite how bad Atlanta's offense is.

Just checking to make sure of this. On Yahoo if I put in a waiver claim to swap player A off my bench before player B came off being listed as out it will still go through if player B is now listed as questionable after I put in the claim but still in the IR slot? Sorry that’s worded horribly, I couldn’t figure out the best way to type it up lol.

Yeah I think so. He was seeing reasonable usage as a rookie even in week 1. Playing well and he's got the job to himself. And he actually could easily have several TDs already... he's gotten wide open behind the defense a couple times and then Love made lovely throws

Neither guy is going to light the league on fire but as an younger, athletic real life second round pick I would prefer to bet on Musgrave's upside
