If Ravens dan and Andrew win this week, it'll be the battle of the undefeated in week 9!

Appreciate that. I don't know who your back ups were but it looks like Brown came through with a solid performance.

Yup, starting Brown paid off. My other two starts, Alshon and Jordy Nelson, did not. I ended up losing I believe.

Close this thread. No professional team is gonna tank. Maybe the Sixers. Trust the process. Even if everyone agreed that we should, who cares. They're gonna keep trying to win games. Case closed.

Harbaugh: "we didn't play winning football.."

Nothing in the first three games gave me a glimmer of hope that we can win games even when we are healthy. This team just has problems at every level.

Nothing ever changes with these games. Not one thing. So tired of these injuries too. I just want this team to be healthy so players or coaches can be held accountable and not bailed out because of injuries.

Can't wait for the Harbaugh presser!

This is not fun to watch. Flacco has been downright terrible.

True on both accounts. That being said, it should be noted that they were mainly bad with Michael Vick. Landry Jones, on the other hand, gave Brown 6 catches for 124 against a then-solid Chiefs defense. Obviously he should be expected to perform slightly less than average but the discrepancy shouldn't be overly significant. I am worried about him being schemed away, which should be easier with a back up QB. I'm starting him myself but that's only because I like to dance with the one that brought me.

You know what? I like that. I'm gonna start him too. Drafted him number one, I think Alshon 2, and Jordy 3. Started both Alshon and Jordy this week. They fell flat. Gonna roll with the original trio.

Tyrell Williams (vs Atlanta) 

pierre garcon (vs Detroit) 

Terrelle Pryor (vs bengals) 

Who should I start 

Pryor can be streaky and range in points. He might blow the roof off or get 50 yards. Both Garçon and Tyrell have good matchups this week. Lions gave up like 300 to case keenum last week. And Atlanta/Chargers could potentially be a shootout which would raise the value of Williams. I'll say Williams.

So I have Lamar Miller vs Denver, David Johnson vs Seattle, T West vs NYJ and Christine Michael vs AZ.

 

I put the first two in my line up, but still hesitating. Thoughts?

 

DJ and West. Im starting Michael. I think he'll have a decent day too.

I wouldn't. There's always the chance for Brown to have a huge touchdown catch, but his numbers without Ben have been kinda bad. Plus the Patriots' pass defense is pretty good.

Yup. I was leaning towards benching him.

Who's a good replacement for the flex spot out of; Travis Benjamin, Dennis Pitta, CJ Anderson, Will Fuller, Sterling Shepherd.

i was thinking either Benjamin and hope for a shoot out against Atlanta or Pitta based on PPR.

I am going to guess you are talking about the original draft. I just looked and there was plenty of talk in the thread regarding the draft and even a reminder the day before. 

 

Yeah you bring up a really good point with the struggles of moving everything over. I am sure we could all try to chip in but just moving 12*20(or 240) players over would be a pain. 

I'm down to move it over. I have spare time in between classes. Whenever you want it done, end of the season or whatever. I'd prefer no redraft. The four teams that will be axed will probably be a good enough draft to supply your team with some talent.

After a dud from Jordy and Alshon, dare I start Antonio Brown?

Well. Gonna lose this week. Anybody want Jefferey or Jordy?

My WRs were my best unit. Alshon has been a huge disappointment And now they're down to Barkley. Jordy hasn't done anything the past couple of games. Brown lost his QB for a few weeks. Fuller has been injured. Shepherd hasn't done much of anything. Travis Benjamin, nope. Snead I have hope for, I suppose.

If the Browns don't win this week or the following week against the Jets, they are going 0-16. These next two weeks provide their best chance to avoid 0-16. Their remaining schedule is the Bengals twice, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, Ravens, Steelers twice, Bills and Chargers.

A key team on that schedule, the Ravens. Lol playing a winless Browns team scares me.

The Giants haven't even cut the dude yet. Lol The NFL is so inconsistent. With everything. DV is DV.

For some reason, I think the BenGals are going to lose to the Browns this week. Hue Jackson might be able to pull it off.

Steelers lose to NE. The AFC North will be tight.

I'd love if Hue could pull it off. The Bengals have been kinda vanilla on offense so I guess it's possible. 

I'd like to see him CATCH some balls out in space and see what he can do with it.

Is there a trade deadline ?

Can't believe I didn't get my lineup set and still one. Thanks ODB. I agree with a lot of Andrews comments that the format is not why these people aren't playing. There's no money involved. I like that it's in depth and takes some thought. I don't do very much season long anymore. I'm all for reducing the team count. It's at 16 because 16 signed up year one. I'm fine with moving to another site for next year if we can save the rosters and most of the settings. If someone wants to help expedite that that would be awesome. 

 

Any other thoughts on the league as a whole?

I'm really digging this league. My first dynasty, but I'm with the others in saying that we should probably cut down. Looking down the roster, at least 12 members have been seen on in that past week, deeming them active. As far as the site goes, I can help with that, we can put the same settings, same rosters, and draft picks. Can do that at the end of the season. Other than, I'm pretty happy with everything.

I've had a trade proposed to me (non-PPR, keeper league): I get Zeke Elliott in exchange for Devonta Freeman and Julian Edelman.

My other RBs are Matt Forte, Tevin Coleman, Charles Sims and TJ Yeldon (not flash, so I wouldn't mind a marquee guy like Zeke for this season and for seasons to come). My other WRs are Dez Bryant, Jordy Nelson, Brandin Cooks and Mike Wallace.

Thoughts?

Non PPR, I like the trade for you. You get a young workhorse for years to come. I'm not as big on your RBs as I am on your WRs. Fortes stock is falling. Isn't Sims injured? and Yeldon has been okay. Zeke would be a great boost. 

Eh, let him rest. We can beat the Jets with Mallett.

Flac has right shoulder injury, legit chance to play according to harbs.

Ya'll really just let me pick up both Jay Ajayi and James White being last in the waiver order?

Eh not sold on Ajayi. I should have picked up white though
