Brett Maher hasn't kicked since week 7 and is still top 32, top 25 in some scoring that accounts for length of FG's.

Sad that 10-12 teams just can't do a damned thing, no matter what.

Offense production is the lowest its been in almost two decades. The lack of real practices (as per the GOAT Tom Brady), defenses finally getting a bead on this ridiculous pass happy crap, and just the overall lack of decent QB's in the league, with no coaching adjustments to accommodate for those sub par QB's - they still wanna pass all the time- leads to dumb stuff like this.

We were really spoiled back in the day- Brady, Brees, Manning, a prime Rodgers, hell even Romo, Cam, Palmer, a prime RW, a prime Stafford, Luck, Rivers, Big Ben, Matty Ice...

These days, once you get past Mahommes, Burrows and Allen- and even those 3 are in question at the moment- Hurts, and Tua, there just isn't great QB play to be found anywhere. I suppose you could put Dak in there, but he's known to disappear at the drop of a hat as well. Stroud? We'll see.


you forgot my boy tim boyle!!!

Shenault hasn't scored (in PPR leagues) more than 5 points this season... and did it five times last year.

But Fantrax has him projected for 5.93 this week....while he is not practicing.

I would love to know what they do for their projections.

gee, how could I have forgotten the great Tim Boyle? Oh yea, cuz I didn't want to bother mentioning all the currently rostered QB's who make a case that Kaepernick should still be in the league

I also own a lot of Derrick Henry stock. As disappointing as he has been, he is still the 13th best RB in the league.

So Chris Godwin is a game time decision and I need a wr if he’s not going to play cuz I don’t know hills status or coopers status yet. Do you guys think it’s good to drop Godwin for Josh downs or Curtis samual?

the CAR matchup isn't a good one for Godwin either. CAR ranks 4th vs the pass.
Why is Tyreek on your bench? Am I seeing that correctly?
He is questionable

Not anymore. He's playing. So make that change.

And its probably better to just drop Godwin for Downs rest of the season anyway. More upside with him. But if you don't want to drop him outright, wait and see if Godwin is ruled out, move him to your IR slot, and pick up Downs.

Should I drop James Connor for an Dillon? Connor has been a dud last few weeks
You should know I am not a fan of Connor. But Dillon's success - which also has not been anything to write home about - may be tied to a unhealthy Aaron Jones.

I did everything in my power to lose last week.
Benched wrong people started wrong people, my kicker missing 2 FGS (13 point swing) Played against Josh Allen that scored big & brought my opponent all the way back into the game.

All in all I won by .01 points, the closest you could win or lose by ever. I think ties would be more common than this.
