I think Karlos is showing now that he's a legit play even with Shady starting.

I thought I was gonna get through the first half with DT being relatively quiet...

Anyone remember when the starting Denver RB was a lock to rack up points?

Ram and i in a battle of mediocre scores... Got a 16 point lead but i am done, he has Kelce and James jones... this should be an exciting end... very disappointed with Melvin Gordon this week, thought he was going to have a huge week!!!

Thinking the same - - definitely as long as Shady is playing with "one and a half legs". .....

If Roethlisberger is out for long, I may be looking at relegation. That would be a crushing blow.

I feel your pain. I don't have Big Ben anywhere but I do have A. Brown in quite a few. The thoughts of his production hinging on Mike Vick makes me quiver. ....

He will be fine, and Vick will be fine for Antonio, nothing better for a scrambling QB than a short route master like Antonio...

Short route masters require at least a moderately accurate QB, especially if the hope is YAC, Vick never has been that. And when he runs around, he likes to throw deep, not short. The Steelers offense is in a little trouble for the next 4-6...all of them, except maybe Bell.

That's true, but Antonio will still get his targets... Is it the end of the world that he will Now only get 5+ catches instead of 9+???

Well, not the end of the world - but from a fantasy prospective, HELL YES !! unless the 5+ are somehow longer and result in scores.

What I meant is that he may not be the first round value that you took him at, but I would be surprised if he is not at least a flex player value... he is too much to the teams offense to disappear, just cant see him being worse than a 50 YPG constant...

I understand that he will still be 'productive' - - but if his value is not what he was drafted to be, then he is obviously negatively affected and hurting your team. 50ypg are WR3/4 numbers - heck of a difference from #1 at the position. Just have to hope for a big play now rather than the model of consistency he had become.

It will really be the proof on him being the best WR in fantasy... Generally the short receivers are less consistent and their numbers are dependent on QB quantity... But Antonio Has shown toughness and abilities that no other short receiver have... If he can be a WR 2, for the next few weeks, then he deserves his BEST WR status...

@Barilko trades Martavis Bryant to @TKOSpikes about an hour before Big Ben hurts himself.
From Bar's perspective, that is some seriously shrewd dealing.
From TKO's perspective, can this season get any more humbling? (But hey, the Bills won!)

Oh wait, I got that backwards. :redface:
TKO is shrewd...
And Bar is stunned. (But hey, the Texans won.)
