  1. Excellent fantasy day for me yesterday. L. Bell, Torrey Smith, Romo, and Murray. 100 points in PPR. My opponent had less than 6 points from Lacy. This is for #1 seed and 1st round bye. Winning regular season gets your money back. 1st round bye, automatically puts you in the money.
  2. They can't make Conte hit his gaps and make tackles. Slowing down the run game with the front four makes the decision-making easier for the linebackers and safeties. Yeah, the LBs have had linemen on them too quickly and the safeties have been faced with making an open field tackle with the RB having more momentum than they have. Just a half second hold up of those linemen makes everything different. Of course, it's Adrian Peterson week so it may not matter anyway.
  3. Forte is going to play. Paea also looks able to go. And Jeremiah (Jay) Ratliff is expected to make his Bears debut. Pass rush be damned. Hopefully those 2 can not get driven out of their gaps in the run game.
  4. Don't see AZ giving up Gregorious. Getting my backtobanks on: Arizona: Samardzija, Russell Pirates: Owings, Schierholz CUBS: Glasnow, Delgado, Holmberg, Eaton Feels like the Dbacks are giving up too much. Pirates not enough. Maybe take out Russell, put in a Pirates RP.
  5. Was just reading their SBN site where the debate was whether they could get Samardzija without including Sanchez or Stroman. Given what's transpired so far this offseason, I'm wondering what piece of significance they'd need to add to Sanchez and Stroman. But I agree, they have lots of interesting pieces, but it seems unlikely that I'd be super excited about the return. Not as bad as the Nationals, but no Arizona or Kansas City in terms of potential matches. I don't know if JaysJournal is their SBN site, but their article on it was hilarious. After like 1,000 words on it, he decided on RHP Kyle Drabek, OF Anthony Gose, LHP Sean Nolin, LHP Daniel Norris, LHP Tyler Ybarra, SS Richard Urena for Samardzija. And then they could trade some other pitching prospect and Moises Sierra for Castro. http://www.joesportsfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/buck-costanza.jpg I like the 3 LHPs, but all are 3rd pieces. And if u have to give up six guys...they probably aren't that good. I hate Gose though. Don't want him taking ABs and a roster spot from someone like Gentry or other more valuable players we've heard so far.
  6. Forte did not. Though he's supposedly probable.
  7. I'm guessing that means the Bears lose to whoever wins the NFC East (Dallas or Philly).
  8. It would have to be an overpay. Like a package similar to what is expected from Samardzija, maybe a little less.
  9. Looks like Browner is going to be again. Again, NOT PED. Same thing as Thurmond...Weed. Guess they visited Colorado recently That's not what's being reported. I've seen PED's reported for both.
  10. I think I was fooled by McCown, who made his line look better than they were. To compare, Andrew Luck had a similarly [expletive] line protecting him two weeks ago and he played his worst game of the season. Both Cutler and McCown have made the line look a LOT better than it actually has been. I heard it mentioned the other day that the Bears' o-line has allowed their QB's to be the most hurried or however the hell you put it. So they're not getting sacked as much, but the Bears' QB's are still under way too much pressure. Its not everyone at once this year. Edge rushers are fine. QBs can get away from them if they can step up in the middle. And its not both edges at the same time usually.
  11. Listen to this man. Perkins is Ben Wallace his last year in Chicago, minus the rebounding ability.
  12. Looks like Browner is going to be again.
  13. Vai Taua, John Moffitt, Allen Barbre, Winston Guy, Brandon Browner and Bruce Irvin. Richard Sherman had his suspension overturned. Now Thurman. NFL has to do something. Far and away leads the league.
  14. holy [expletive] a -11.1?!?!? Mills was -5.6 too and long -2.8, I didn't think the pass blocking was terrible other than Bushrod but wow I was wrong. That site hates Bushrod. But yeah, he got his ass kicked. I actually thought Mills did well against Chris Long. I thought Kyle was beaten a lot worse than his number would indicate. I thought he tore his ACL on consecutive plays right around the fight, because he got pushed in the backfield and buckled both times.
  15. HOW CAN THAT BE POSSIBLE WHEN THE ANKLE WAS A SMOKESCREEN TO THE OBVIOUS GROIN INJURY THE TEAM WAS HIDING!!!!11111 /kaplan Trestman just said during his PC today that he totally expects Cutler to play again this year. Yeah, but Trestman totally expected to score on 4th and goal yesterday too. That made me laugh. Don't know why.
  16. That should be fun. What's UCLA looking like for next year? IU and Kansas should be preseason top 10, I'd imagine.
  17. Yeah, well they suck less than Purdue. :P
  18. Duh. I forgot about Auburn when I was thinking of who would be in the NC game. Thought 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6 were all losing.
  19. What happens if Auburn, Michigan, aTm, SCar all win? Doesn't seem overly far fetched for a couple of those to happen..... though all happening would be miraculous. 4 of 5 at home. And A&M over Mizzou this time 3 months ago was a no brainer.
  20. At this point you kinda rush Ratliff. Who gives a [expletive] at this point.? He's not under contract for next year.
  21. Actually Tennessee wins the tiebreaker for now. Posted before they won. But yeah AFC is going to have a bad team incapable of doing anything in the WC game.
  22. Having a hard time with one other than the NFC West. East 6-5 best team. North 6-5 best team. South has 2 good teams but the other teams are picking top 5 in the draft right now. AFC is all bad other than maybe the West.
  23. Why are the Cowboys not running the ball?
  24. The Steelers would be in the AFC playoffs if the season ended today.
