Tyler Conklin doing his best Kyle Pitts impression today putting up zeros. And basically came down to a coin flip whether to use him as my fill in TE or Taysom Hill

Taysom Hill, now up to 112 yards rushing, 3 TDs and another TD passing.

I started Hill at TE. Unfortunately, I started Goff at QB and left Geno Smith on the bench.

Well, the Lions finally were reminded of just exactly who they are. New England has a better than average D, possibly the best D coach, but by no means a world beating defense. The Seachickens gave a blueprint, the Patriots but the engineers stamp on it, now will the other teams replicate it?

 

[Chef99]

I really don't know if Kyler Murray is a good QB, but I've gotta say, the guy makes things interesting. And entertaining.

 

[Chef99]

Yikes. I think Matt Ammendola will be receiving his pink slip tommorrow.

That certainly was an ugly game for DET - but I could just feel it coming. I defended Goff on another thread, but forgot to mention that I bench him in favor of Geno Smith this week strictly based on the matchup. Perhaps they've been exposed, I can't really say, but I've seen enough from Hoodie game-plans to know that if there is a weakness he will exploit the hell out of it - and he did exactly that.

Higgins fucked us.

Dobbins blows

Higgins fucked us.

Dobbins blows

5.5 a carry is hardly "blows".
His usage is what blows

Well I fell asleep with a lead and Higgins/Dobbins/McPherson going against Duvernay and when I woke up I lost.

Chiefs got screwed..that roughing call wasn't as horrid as the one on Brady, or the one on Stafford .but still horseshit

I just posted it on one of the other threads. That was awful. Not sure how a guy can hit the quarterback, cause a fumble, gain possession of it before he hits the ground, yet still stick his hand down to brace the fall so his full weight doesn't fall on the quarterback and still get flagged. It's beyond ridiculous at this point. I hope the crowd is still booing when they come out of halftime.

Is it just me or are kickers making some long-ass routine field goals these days?

You got me to look... FGs of 50+ for every year ending in a 1 since the merger...

1971
(26 teams x 14 games)
12/51 24%

1981
(28 teams x 16 games)
21/67 31%

1991
(28 teams x 16 games)
42/94 45%

1994 - rule change, missed field goals now give the ball to the other team at the spot of the kick rather than line of scrimmage, giving the other team about a 7-yard advantage if you miss.

2001
(32 teams x 16 games)
38/73 52%

2011
(32 teams x 16 games)
90/140 64%

2021
(32 teams x 16 games)
120/182 66%

2022 so far
54/72 75%

Just like all the other positions..enhanced training methods, better diet, Yada Yada Yada, = better athletes

Seemingly everyone has a 60+yd leg these days, and they're dialing in the accuracy

 

[Clayton]

7 TDs on the year for Kelce. 2 to Jody Forsten (his only receptions). Noah Grey has a rushing TD.

The Tight Ends are eating a large portion of KC TDs right now

Another 4 to RB's...only Hardman and Justin Watson from the WR room have any at 1 each

Yeah, I figured the RB news is good. Certainly with CEH.

The Chiefs receivers are pretty rough from a fantasy standpoint, though.

Kamara’s value in a dynasty?

I was offered a 2nd but holding out for more
