    Why not keep things more interesting for longer into the season for a much wider range of teams? Or just create a double elimination, 128 team (bump up a few extra FCS schools) playoff to replace the regular season, to really make that second loss meaningful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Literally every other major American sport has an overly inclusive playoff system. We can't just have one that isn't? They would never go past 8 because of the additional number of games and all that. If you don't think an 8 team College Football playoff wouldn't be fun as hell to watch, then you're a communist and hate puppies. So Sulley? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I'm trying to think of the level of player that would make Madden the biggest move and it doesn't excite me. Are we even getting a regular starter or top three SP if that were the case? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    8 instead of four just seems so much better so I hope it doesn't take long. Just include a few more currently non-BCS Bowls for the quarterfinal round and you're set. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    There is a bit of talent to work with, even on defense. Injuries have played a definite toll on the secondary IMO. Some of the DB guys out there Sunday have no business as main contributors. A stud DE would go a long way though to helping out coverage. Browsing the roster last week I was really surprised at the number of UDFA on this roster. I think there were about 8 total. And that's with every drafted player from the past two years still on the roster. Obviously Emery's first draft has contributed, but that was a light draft in picks anyways. Hopefully we can let guys like Washington and Jones get lots of snaps to see what we really have amongst our relatively untested defenders. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Feel like that total should be weighted somehow, but yes, he definitely hasn't been a bust as some make him out. But yes, definitely a clown for his celebration. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Plenty of wealthy people finance their homes. Plus when he bought the home it was before the housing crash, he didn't make as much as he started making in 2014, and if he was smart and refinanced in the last few years his rate could have been hovering at 3% or less while his extra money earned him 30-40% in a S&P500 Index fund over the same time he would have refinanced.

    Sims is available, good call. I have a weird obsession with lining up my D so I'd also consider Sims and dropping either Dixon (Buf) or Matt Ryan who I don't really need anymore but in theory could have keeper value as I picked him up cheap. All that said I have a extra roster spot I'm losing if Pierre Thomas is upgraded at all, and I'd have to decide between him and any new add. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I have nearly half my team on a bye so no real choices to make though I feel pretty confident in my lineup anyways with the two primary subs being Terrence Williams and DeSean Jackson at Flex/WR. That being said I am contemplating some waiver wire moves. Thinking Suisham or Dawson as my new kicker (Suisham I'd have to replace one more time with a week 12 bye). Wanting a new RB or 2 as backups. All done with bye weeks for my top 3 after this week, but not much depth. Have a claim for Alfred Blue. Any other deep sleepers or handcuffs worth considering at RB? I'm gonna put a claim on Cin D otherwise for my "D by committee" as they have a good looking schedule. I'm sure they'll be a popular claim this week though with Jac and I'm 9 on the waiver order. Also tempted to put a claim in at WR for LaFell even though my WR need is pretty low. ETA if I go D over another RB now I'm thinking Ravens, with this playoff lineup Min, Jac, Hou, Cle.

    I owe the Astros an apology. I'm still a little shocked he's playing let alone walking after watching that initial replay from earlier this summer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I posted the tweet in week 9. I'd rather see Brian De La Puente play guard but Mills obviously shouldn't play tackle much longer. Gotta think Bushrod.De La Puenta. Garza. Long. Britton is our best bet going forward. I expect Ola to remain though. And if they put Mills at G I guess I could accept it as development time but you're basically not putting your best foot forward for this year then. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I may be ready for a two week break.. Or at least focus my bears related energy to mock draft sites. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    While I find the Urlacher comps a bit much, he too was originally thought of as a OLB and not MLB. Didn't even start until an injury at MLB thrust him into that spot. So I'd say if Thonpson is the best D talent, grab him and just go from there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Arians really was available and Emery chose not to interview him, right? I don't want him choosing our next coach. I thought Arians was the other finalist. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Personally I thought it would take at least two years from the 2013 D to really turn it around, so I always anticipated more work to do this offseason but I definitely had an expectation for the O to do more in the interim to help bridge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It was looking a bit more middle of the pack before facing NE and GB. By the end of the year we may be looking a back-middle teir D as the expectation was. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Its not like they had just a few outliers though. They were 27+ in 9 games. So granted we could be averaging a few more points a game and we wouldn't necessarily win every game where our D gave up under 28 but I think the expectation was we had an offense that could win us games and it hasn't. Even only picking up one of the games would put us in much better shape heading into the bye.
