Reid was a pro bowler a few years ago, protested, then couldn't get a job. No idea if he sucked in the meantime

He's still young, iirc

This article implies he's good enough to be starting, but not elite.

We’ll take that, big upgrade. We were down to a special teams player or a rookie struggling to learn the position.

If he’s serviceable it’s a big deal to the panthers. If I have to watch Colin Jones get abused by TEs and WRs one more time...

That will hurt Kaep's case against the NFL too.

Do I start Kirk Cousins against the Rams tonight or grab someone like Flacco on the road against the porous Steelers?

I would have gone Flacco, but I just cannot like Cousins.

I went Cousins and he's doing well.

This is awesome:

Ah, the number of times I could have said that in the 2nd quarter the past 3 years...

He's almost at 30 points for me and the 4th is about to start. The bad part is he's against my defense.

I thought the Rams had better D? Did they lose a corner or two?

*edit* Ohhhh.

Yep, that's why I was questioning sitting Cousins this week. Normal Rams defense and I would have, but against backups I figured what the hell. Worked out. He got me 35 points, but the Rams D got me -3.

Bell's holdout is actually hurting his 2019 salary potential.

I did a leisher. Started bears D against Fitzmagic. Apparently should have started Trubisky

Post by **TheCatt** » Sun Sep 30, 2018 2:43 pm

Trubisky with 36 at half. Gott dammmmmmmm

Post by **Leisher** » Sun Sep 30, 2018 3:07 pm

WTF is going on there? Bears are destroying TB, and Trubisky is the leading rusher? I started Jordan Howard and he has 0 points on three carries. Did he get hurt?

Post by **Leisher** » Sun Sep 30, 2018 5:01 pm

Uh, what the fuck was that in Indy? Did Indy’s coach have money on the Texans? I’ve never seen anything like that.

Youngest had gymnastics meet, saw no football today.

My fantasy QBs had 46, 26, 24, and 3 points. Guess which one I started?

Post by **Leisher** » Sun Sep 30, 2018 6:40 pm

Ouch.

My opponent this week started Cobb who was inactive, so that was nice of him.

Howard ended up getting 2 points, but I still have no idea what happened in that game. It's like all they did was let Trubisky throw.

As for Indy, with 26 seconds left in overtime and on their own side of the field, they went for it on 4th and 4. Failed. Texans get the ball back already almost in field goal range. Texans complete one pass and kick the game winner.

I mean, I kinda get that from a "let's win" perspective. But the risk of losing must have been > 50% with 4th + 4. Dude must just hate ties.

Starters 71, 2nd worst in the league today.
Bench 155 - My bench QBs and RBs exploded. Trubiski 44, Hines for 19, K. Johnson 11, Ekeler for 10.

Good news, the guy I'm playing, with 1 player after this game (I have 3), is the worst in the league, at 68.
