Welp, this team where I picked Bijan first and Devante Adams second looks pretty hosed.

The lesson here is to never use early draft picks on rookies, veterans, RBs, or WRs

This is why the savvy move is to draft Kelce, who never ever disappoints. Especially when you lose by 0.4 points.

Just need 2 points from Keenan Allen tonight thanks to Chase's bad night, but if there's one defense that can stop that it's the Jets D :ohdear:

Is Baltimore just gonna run the ball now? Is Lamar’s fantasy stock dropping? I know “don’t sit your studs” but I look at Lamar’s last two games vs. Sam Howell’s and it makes me wonder…

The moment you sit your early draft pick stud you are immediately shunted into a parallel universe where they player has the best game of his life so I regret to say your choice on Jackson is doomed

I had Lamar last year and he did the same poo poo, not entirely sure why I took him again. He puts up a few 30-40 point games to give you confidence, then cranks out a stream of zero TD weeks to ruin you.

Going forward I’m probably benching him for Stroud to save myself the headache. If Lamar pops off for 40 again then whatever.

Guys it was a massive blowout. Gus Edwards scored more fantasy points than he had snaps. The only take away from this game on Baltimore's side is that they will absolutely roll over every NFC team they play.

Plus it was a west coast team playing at 9AM local time thanks to DST ending, the outcome wasn’t exactly a surprise

I always like to do a look ahead to next week on Monday mornings and saw I have QBs on bye next week. I checked the FAs and was able to scoop up Goff and T-Law (!) who were dropped because of their byes to fill in. In yahoo leagues anyone on your bench is droppable and anyone on bye is a FA so you can sometimes find some fun pickups for next week.

I need Keenan, Herbert, and Breece Hall to combine for less than 30 points. I am offering the richest sacrifices to the prime time clownball gods because you KNOW Jets/Chargers has the potential to be a complete unwatchable disaster. If Davante Adams wasn't looking like the worst first round pick that's still healthy I'd probably be good

I've never seen them break out a sideline tens unit, but that was what they were treating him with.

I've had several pretty debilitating back injuries over the years, and it feels exactly like being a step away from dead.

I really like Kincaid. He seems very good, high draft capital, currently has a great role, has one of the best QBs in the league throwing to him. The wild card is that Dawson Knox is going to come back at point. He also hasn’t had his bye yet where obviously Engram just did.

That might tie break it in favor of Engram for me but it’s close.

I like everyone acting like Mattison has more value because of Akers' injury than when he was the #1 back at the beginning of the year.

Look those of us holding these extremely wet, heavy, smelly Mattison bags will take what sunshine we can get ok :colbert: He for sure still has the problem that he is bad. But at least he isn’t also losing half the snaps anymore. And with Cousins dead they seem likely to go run heavy and/or dump off more. Are there any more turbo washed vets for Minnesota to sign now that Lenny is off the board? Ronald Jones or something I guess.

I’m a little surprised to see everyone proclaiming Mostert’s demise. Like yeah it’s not ideal for him that Achane is coming back. Maybe he’s not going to be top 3 anymore but he’s not going to suddenly become an irrelevant turd. Also it is not at all out of the question that Achane immediately gets hurt again because he’s tiny. If someone wanted to give me Mostert for Pollard I would do that instantly

I should probably drop Christian Watson for Jahan Dotson in PPR, right?

Dotson seems to be taking off and the whole Packers offense is terrible (I say that as a Packers fan). I won't be starting Watson except in the most extremely dire cases with dudes like Meyers, Higgins, Downs, Diontae Johnson ahead of him.

I would 100% do that. Watson, and the entire Packers offense, have looked awful all year because Love is just not a good QB.

Yup, I did it as soon as I posted.

I even drafted Dotson and dropped him after a couple of weeks. He's not someone I'll immediately start but it's better than someone grabbing him and using against me.

I'm starting Love in another league and I'm dropping him for Dobbs or really anyone else.

I'm really thinking about dropping Bijan in my no bench league, Smith is a terrible head coach and refuses to use his good players anywhere near the end zone. I'm benching him in my normal leagues, hoping they fire him. Guess I'll see who is available Wednesday and go from there.
