Random FF Thoughts

I may actually survive facing off against Barkley's 33 points... got 29 from T. Higgins and 35 from Goff. I'm up 27 points going into MNF.

Remember back early in the season when some of us thought the Cowboys D was gonna be good?

So I was up by 9 with Nico and playing the Texans defense. They get that stupid fumble then a couple more sacks. I am down by a little over 2.5 points.

Dallas goes over 350 yards so the scoring says 200-299 yards = 2 points then 350-399 yds = -1 points. Am I missing something? Texans defense should lose 3 points. I should have won by less than a point but instead he won by .5. Makes no sense

FUCK YOU ESPN!!!

Going against a guy that has one of the worst teams in a 16tm full ppr dynasty, typically scores in the 80-90 range.

He started Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Kendrick Bourne, and Nick Westbrook-Ikinhe, who have put up a combined over 50 on me today....

I survived and won but 0.5pts, mostly due to him starting Rob Woods over Knox.

This is huge after I traded away a couple future 2nds for Ridley and Tillman

@averagejoe looks like you're getting a month+ to see if the rook can really sling it in the pros. Vikes and Lions both x2, oh my. With DJM and Odunze dynasty shares, I selfishly would love it if he steps up and balls out vs the NFC N

Next 5 games, fantasy matchups (1st = easiest/best matchup)
Vs QB: 25th, 30th, 26th, 25th, 30th
Vs RB: 31st, 29th, 18th, 31st, 29th
Vs WR: 3rd, 7th, 20th, 3rd, 7th
Vs TE: 23rd, 21st, 27th, 23rd, 21st

Even if he doesnt, the consensus here in the Windy City is that Caleb is NOT the problem. Its coaching.

I do like the new OC. But 1 game is not a quality litmus test.

Got the ball out .5s faster last week and targeted his first read more often... good signs early

I world agree. I also wouldn't say that he's the answer, not yet. To early in his evaluation to put either of those labels on him. But he has not been horrible

The chatter locally was that Waldron sent plays in late and then was in Caleb's headset the whole duration of the play clock.

The new OC has already corrected that and, as evident during the Packer game, it has already paid dividends. Seems the receivers, O-line and QB were all on the same page before getting to the line.

Hard to phathom it was that bad, but the wake from Seattle confirms thats how Waldron ran things.

well there's supposedly a league mandated cut off where they aren't allowed to speak to them through the helmet system./ i don't know what that cut off is..30 seconds, 20, 15? But i know there's SUPPOSSED to be a communications cut off, so that's somewhat concerning.

15 seconds left on the play clock or when the ball is snapped.

That could be way too much pre snap listening for anyone, never mind a rookie.

3 games i went against the Houston defense this week. In one of those interested had Detroit.

Detroit gives up 6 it's and around 270 yes for 10 points.
Houston gives up 30 points and 370 yds for 47 it's. 8 sacks, 3 Tas, and a Td is really worth that many more pts.

AAMMMMEEEEERRRRRR

Midway through 2nd quarter, the Raiders leading receiver is their MLB Diablo on a fake punt..gotta love it

I need 25 from Kupp in my money league. Thanks for the 10, Goff.

Can't complain about that performance from a rookie QB vs an aggressive defense on the road in a late season division rivalry game.

Too bad I played more Odunze than DJM but nice to have DJM back in the regular flex mix instead of moth balled on my bench

Perhaps he can be the real life SCOTT STERLING!

Sadly, a lot in common with my team in Bandit's dynasty this yr. ....

So...Danny Dimes is gonna be a Viking.

I dunno, I'm just so confused these days.
