  1. Fuller looks the part to do it all in the secondary. I don't doubt he starts day 1 in the ever present nickel formation. And they're in good position to land one of Nix/Hageman/Jernigan.
  2. I don't remember it well but apparently it was moving quickly. Probably will end up closer to 9 CT, but if you aren't next to a TV for the duration you gotta play it safe...
  3. Why isn't Donald included here? Was a while back but along the lines of Emery saying no chance Donald falls out of the top 10.
  4. To see this much improvement before the draft, with a pretty high pick none the less, is very encouraging. This defense should convincingly have the pieces in place to make the necessary turnaround.
  5. Hopefully we can sign even more crappy safeties.
  6. Super-religious doesn't seem to make for exciting tv. To me anyways. Hopefully they draft a vocal atheist.
  7. I'd be shocked if a DE like Bennett wasn't brought in as quick as they can. A schematic change that allows a 4-3/3-4 hybrid front allows them to hopefully salvage McClellin's usefulness and allow them to go after the 3-4 OLB pass rushing players they couldn't, or failed trying to utilize before. As much as the rush defense was spotlighted for its horribleness, the failure to generate a consistent pass rush allowed our safeties to become too vulnerable.
  8. McCoy is going to win every fantasy team their championships this week. Briggs returning for this game is incredibly fortunate, but I don't think it's enough. At least we know the Bears can play shootouts with the best of em'.
  9. They are talking about Lorenzo Cain too, if my source is correct. Samardzija and Barney for Cain, Crow and 2 pitching prospects (no names given to me). Sounds terrible.
  10. This is only because I'm making the trip up for my 1st ever Bears regular season game.
  11. Not really. Their schedule has been cake so undefeated is an overly simplistic way of evaluating their strength and when you play their kind of defense you slow the game down, reduce possessions and thus reduce your own scoring chances. They've also let off the gas multiple times in the 4th qtr due to comfortable leads. Pacers have 3 starters who are averaging 30 mins or less per game. An interesting note I saw the other day, Paul George is 2nd in isolation scoring this season, behind only Durant.
  12. Fair enough.
  13. Dalton & Ellington. Unless Keenum is on the wire. Stafford or RG3?
  14. Lance Stephenson and Paul George both look to be making significant jumps yet again, the latter into superstardom. For a fun stat, Hibbert already has 12 blocks in only 49 mins played.
  15. Ah my bad, I only look at the board through 'View active topics'. I'm thinking Denver will have something to play for with KC on fire this year. I'm 7-0 and 2nd place is 4-3, so I only need to worry about the playoffs (weeks 16 + 17). I'm questioning if I'll be better off with Manning and inserting Harvin in my starting lineup over RG3/Vick + Alf. I'll also keep 1 of my QBs to start in the case Manning does sit. But Wash and the Eagles both have good playoff matchups as well, so I may be better off keeping Alf and hoping his numbers pick up. Having 3 starting RBs is a luxury I would be giving up. I'm quite perplexed.
  16. I hope someone here is willing to offer me trade help. My team: RG3 Jamaal Charles Alfred Morris Reggie Bush Demaryius Thomas Victor Cruz Tony Gonzalez Pats D Crosby James Jones Pierre Garcon Mike Vick Percy Harvin Joique Bell Jets D Roy Helu The Peyton Manning owner just lost his 2nd in a row and 3rd of the season and wants me to trade for him. He would need back a QB and RB, and he's willing to take either QB, thinks Harvin is too risky. The league is 10 teams, 6 pts/passing TD. I think RG3 and Morris could do it. Would you make that deal?
  17. Vick and Cruz. Thank you. I was leaning Vick. But even with RG3's issues, I feel Garcon is being underrated projection wise. 2nd in the league in targets against a terrible Oakland team, I'll continue to second guess myself until the game starts on that one.
  18. RG3@Oak or Vick@Denver? Cruz@KC or Garcon@Oak? I'm struggling between sticking with Vick & Cruz or rolling out both RG3 and Garcon against Oakland.
  19. PFF with Briggs as a Top 3 Performer at (+3.6)
  20. I'd be starting edelman in any and all ppr leagues. But I'm thinking of starting garcon over morris. Am I dumb? I also could start Vick. And never sit morris.
  21. He's growing his hair out over in Dallas. Interesting choice.
  22. I don't know why Mills is so good already but damn is it nice to see.
