Fantasy football anyone?

[Slow Five-O]

Marshall is killing me tonight.

That doesn't mean i don't know football.

Keep an eye on it.

Would you like to trade for Thompkins?

Sure, I would entertain a trade.

[Slow Five-O]

You seem so certain, yet your team is 2-3 in our league. :-)

Thompkins won't get many receptions i don't think. Gronk is back, Amendola won't be limited snaps like he was last week, and Edelman is still WR2. The field will be more spread but for someone who was already shaky, he's now fallen further from fantasy radar for now.

Johnson is still expected to go, their game is a noon game so if he is held out you'll be able to switch.

I'd play Austin over Thompkins even with the hamstring.

Yeah, there hasn't been any setbacks on Johnson's shin. The stuff I've seen has said him not practicing is purely precaution, and to give him rest to heal. I'm not worried about him, really. Schaub is a liability, but STL sucks, and big receivers run all over them.

Thompkins was a dud last week, with only 3 for 16. Gronk is going to take virtually all of his red zone touches.

Johnson is currently a game time decision so I wouldn't bank on him being available. Plus Schaub is throwing horribly right now. I'd go with Cobb, Jeffery, and Thompkins.

Lol!

[idrivea4banger]

Damn your Jedi mind tricks!

[Slow Five-O]

Fuck I'm going to regret this. Woodhead better step it up.

If you would rather have stafford i think that would be just as even. Your choice. I think there is a counter button maybe? If you choose to go that route.

[Slow Five-O]

Fuck I'm going to regret this. Woodhead better step it up.

He's always there in passing game but with Ryan Matthews out for now woodhead will put up awesome points. He was even still used (and scored) in goal line carries.

Cobb
Johnson and jeffery or nicks... leaning jeffery





IDA4banger! if it helps your decision on trade i'm taking Rivers off waiver wire right now lol

Now that you put it that way though and I keep thinking about it as I am typing, I would go with Jeffery.

Cobb
Johnson and jeffery

That's the way I'm leaning right now. Nicks has a higher projection, but projection numbers, especially by Yahoo, mean jack shit. I put more emphasis on history than they do.

How confident are you in that? Nicks has been incredibly inconsistent. In week 3 he laid a goose egg, and in week 4 he only put up 6.3 (keeping in mind this is a PPR league). He also hasn't scored a TD yet this season.


Here's my thoughts. Austin isn't guaranteed to start, he's coming off a hammy injury, and has been shaky even when healthy. I just picked him up as a FA, for later in the season. Thompkins has had two good weeks I believe, but Amendola, and now Gronk threaten his targets. He likely won't see my starting lineup again this season. Nicks lacks TD production, and inconsistent. Elisha being the queen of suck lately hurts this. On one side, they are always playing from behind. On the other, even that had not helped his production until last week, and I think Philly's terrible defense has more to do with that than anything. Jeffery has more catches than everyone but Johnson, and more yards than all the receivers I listed. Most of those coming over the last two weeks. While Giants defense sucks dick, Chicago could get away with running all day and not have any emphasis on the pass. The bright side of the situation is that Amakamura will be covering Marshall all day, leaving Jeffery covered by incompetence.

I think the first two are a lock and the the 3rd is a toss up between Jeffery and Nicks. I have no confidence in Austin to even consider keeping him on my team. Eli has nothing to do but throw the ball. So I am banking on him throwing it all over the place but the Bears have a solid D. Now that you put it that way though and I keep thinking about it as I am typing, I would go with Jeffery.
