  1. That was fun. He still throws some ugly balls, but damn he's fun and I'm jealous of Texans fans who get to watch their rookie QB.
  2. I don't remember what its like to have a healthy team.
  3. So Alford may be a practice squad signing? With the Anderson news too, there must be another IR move coming (or a cut... Brown? Sanchez?)
  4. Pace trying to corner a market inefficiency.
  5. The Tanner Gentry bandwagon is not gonna take this well.
  6. Not sure if I missed it in the other thread or not, but Freeman was injured too- concussion and pectoral injury. Not clear the extent of the pec injury.
  7. I'd say they more stressed doing something with the takeaways. The defense set out to score touchdowns every game. Agreed. They'd take a 20% less chance to get a turnover for a 30% chance they could advance said turnover. (I don't know if those are the percentages, but that was the idea).
  8. Fuller this game. Over under on first rounders still standing Week 17? Cohen goes for 200 AP yards and a score, but I keep him on my fantasy bench again.
  9. Turnovers should be a byproduct of what you do on defense, not the focus. The focus should be doing the things that lead to negative plays, and sometimes, turnovers. I'll agree like 75% on this. Yea, you should be focusing on the "peripherals", but stressing the TO leads to actually doing something with turnovers and not the Mel Tucker defense that watched balls on the ground instead of pouncing on it, and ideally returning TOs.
  10. I'm fine with saying the D was only good yesterday if that's your only issue. Perhaps that's not weighting the opponent, but yea, a great performance doesn't include a couple of those plays. Which isn't to say this couldn't be a great D if all goes well this season...
  11. They were 32nd at getting turnovers last year and got 0 yesterday. May be just a coincidence. I'm not expecting them to be better than average at takeaways, but it is not the same defense as last year, and many if their off-season additions to D did focus on that.
  12. It's probably a good enough defense to propel them intp the 6-7 win range.
  13. They really didn't look great at all today, but we're incapable of moving the pocket with Glennon, either. It's either hold back rushers with their ears pinned back , or deal with messy pockets.
  14. But not John Fox's for the season. Seriously, there's probably 60 And who could do what he did today. Barkley could have done that.. I think he did a couple times last year.
  15. Lol I'm so glad I decided long ago to mentally check out of this season.
  16. Shades of the Titans game here, lol.
  17. RB check down RB check down RB check down RB check down
  18. Don't just start Trubisky. Fire Glennon to the moon. He's worse than Brian Hoyer.
  19. Tarick Cohen. Pretty fun. Mike Glennon. Pretty good blocker. Oh and Cohen is sitting on my bench in fantasy :?
  20. Well neither does any other team building strategy, I guess.
  21. Then the Bears will win some horsefeathering games this year.
  22. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/20621318/reform-nba-draft-lottery-voted-17-18-season Tank while it's still a viable strategy Bulls.
  23. You think Fuller starts over a healthy Cooper and Prince?
  24. Loggains is gonna throw the ball, don't worry. Sounds like Wheaton won't be ready to go this week. 3 wides will be White, Wright and ?? Thompson or Bellamy I guess. If Wheaton is out, is Tre McBride the only other active WR? Do you think Shaheen is 3rd or 4th on the depth chart behind Miller and Sims? McPhee and Wheaton as injury scratches Sanchez a healthy scratch Assuming no other injury issues, 4 more healthy scratches; Mizzell, Bush, Brown, Sowell would be my guess. I guess Brown could get the call over McBride since he knows the offense. Maybe the keep Bush active as they only have 4 S, but not sure who else - don't think they kept Burton to not have him active... Fuller if the feel okay about Prince's foot...
