  1. If I put on my optimism hat, Foles quality of D's faced has much better. So while they're statistically very close right now, Foles has looked better by the eye test and is still a better bet to perform better than Mitch. Where that means he ultimately falls, I don't know. Los Angeles is the only other opponent all year that's currently a top 10 passer rating defense team. So while the D will have some tests yet to come, the worst of the schedule is over for the O. Defensive passer rating DET - 91.3 (15th) NYG - 100.8 (23rd) ATL - 114.1 (league worst) IND - 71.7 (best in league) TB - 82 (4th best) CAR - 86.2 (6th best) ETA: Schedule ahead (Defense Passer Rating rank as of today) Los Angeles (10) New Orleans (29) Tennessee (21) Minnesota (x2) (30) Green Bay (x2) (26) Detroit (15) Houston (31) Jacksonville (27) Or roughly, an average passer rating against of about 102-103. So if Foles is even an average starting QB, a 100 passer rating the rest of the way should be the expectation.
  2. Don't know why, but to me, 17 points seems to be Mitch' specialty, it's not true but, just seems about right every time Mitch starts. Checked the game logs, they've scored 17 points - 3 times, 16-5, 19-1 and 20-2 that's 11 of his 44 starts with only 16-20 points, didn't even want to look at 15,14,etc. was already depressing enough. *Scrapping the MIN game where he got injured and adjusting the ATL game to 10 points* Mean- 20.28 Median- 20 Mode- 24 (6 times) (next most common is 16, 4 times, and then several other games at 3 times [31, 17, 14, and 3 :(]) BUT, digging a little further and 1 of those 24 score games had a Def TD. So now we're more like; 24 (5x), 16 (4x), 17 (4x), 31 (3x), 14 (3x), 3 (3x)
  3. Okay, maybe everyone just sucks so the Bears still suck then.
  4. Do you mean the pass on 3rd down? I’ll have to go back but I think that throw to Robinson was good enough to be caught. I don’t want to be that team who can’t do anything but run three times to burn the other team’s TO’s. They’ve got to complete the passes but I like the pass call. I think they at least have to have a run threat and throw if they get a certain look. That play was a pure pass play from the formation. That's when you go with the 3 TE set you love so much and throw out of that against a D that's likely selling out against the run. Yea a little PA mini boot where the QB can at least slide down if the 1 read isn't there.
  5. No way is this team good enough to win a game by 20.
  6. Is Bridgewater gonna last this whole game? How many hits has he taken already?
  7. I don't make either one of those deals. I'm very stubborn about giving up a RB. The amount of spread to receivers makes their points less than RB's, especially 3 down RB's. I'd hang on to Henry, Taylor and Mostert and see if you can upgrade at WR with one of Jones or Fournette. Once Fournette is healthy, they will be splitting time. Yea the more I sit on it I'm bearish dealing Henry at all, especially since I have a decent shot to be trading 12 weeks of play for 11, with the early covid-bye for Ten. Also I'm bearish on having two of my top players (Mahomes, Hill) on one team in case of any covid issues. And this morning I wake up to find that Ind shut down, so maybe I just consider myself lucky that I have a really good 4th and 5th RB and do the best I can with the WR streaming (and hope Cooper becomes Dalton's favorite target in DAL). So as a follow up, who do you like as my No 2 WR this week between Claypool, Landry, Shenault, Higgins?
  8. So I'm trying to balance my RB/WR balance a bit. I have two offers on the table Derrick Henry straight up for Mike Evans Derrick Henry and Chase Claypool for Tyreke Hill and Tom Brady (I had initially offer Hill for Henry straight up and this was the counter, Brady is meh to me cuz I have Mahomes). I feel like a like Hill better and Claypool is selling high (I literally just got him on waivers this week). I'd be buying high on Evans who's been TD heavy to get points this year. I could go back to the Hill offer and try and get another backup WR/RB instead of Brady.. FYI my other RB are Jonathan Taylor, Raheem Mostert, Ronald Jones, and Leonard Fournette. My WR are Amari Cooper, Claypool, Jarvis Landry, Laviska Shenault, Tee Higgins.
  9. The 2-7* collapse will be epic *I'm assuming at least a couple games end up canceled before this horsefeathers show season is all said and done.
  10. Whoa, just searched a video and the still image from the link gave me enough of an idea. Brutal.
  11. I feel like there has to be a rule against it. At the very least I'm sure the current team could block, and perhaps it's an unwritten rule that you wouldn't even ask?
  12. At least easier to social distant in baseball.
  13. Is most the $9m actually freed up to use elsewhere, or is it all basically accounted for with raises?
  14. Don't need this team faking everyone into believing they're a good 4-1 team.
  15. My cursory Google search tells me they're basically locked into the current core for 3 years, with only Seabrook still with 4 years. What type of length would Crawford realistically get, and is their only way out of these contracts by attaching valuable assets to them to move them for shorter deals?
  16. Or negotiating an early leave is about negotiating which FO personnel are available to leave with him (with or without comp).
