Nice read - Left a comment. ...

Normally I go in there and leave a comment, but you'll have to write about a position I don't absolutely hate.

That's why I made fun of it.
TE are just a notch above kickers.

C'mon... comparing ASJ to Luke Skywalker who was orphaned twice! This is good stuff. No?

Didn't Luke get his hand chopped off? Obviously, he would be better at blocking.

Well, with no hand at least he wouldn't get called for holding - oh wait, he had a robotic one to replace it. ... never mind.

Great job Joe. Am I reading that right that there are 5 Saturday games in week 16? What the hell? The only other time I've seen them do a lot of games on Saturday is when Christmas is on Sunday but it's on a Wednesday this year.

According to the source I looked at, (and if i read it right) only 3 of those 5 games will be a lock for Saturday.

I believe what will happen is 2 of those games will be flexed to prime time.

This is from the NFL operations page re: Saturday games. . .

In Week 16, three of five possible matchups currently listed as TBD will be scheduled for Saturday on NFL Network: Houston at Tampa Bay, Buffalo at New England, Detroit at Denver, Oakland at the Los Angeles Chargers and San Francisco at the Los Angeles Rams. Start times and Saturday games for Week 16 will be announced no later than following Week 8, with the non-Saturday games to be played on Sunday.​

There should be an accompanying chart but it won't display on my android.

You won't find this data anywhere else. At least, not without doing extensive research. May not translate much to fantasy football, but could be a good talking point, both pro and con. Yes, there's a big chart!

Thanks for leaving a comment.
Just have this feeling that some will look at those 100+ negative yards by Saquon and instead of thinking "this isn't good" they'll convince themselves that he will turn that into 100 more yards this season.

Interesting, but I can't really make anything of it. Would have to look at year to year variance to see which rbs/coordinators/olines appear near the top repeatedly.
