And to think I dropped Matt Ryan for fear of the Panthers' defense, especially coming off a home loss

I dropped the Panthers defense because it sucked so often.

Good call on your part apparently lol

Losing Josh Norman means they have to drop safeties to help with WR1 coverage. And their safeties aren't fast enough to cover WR1s anyway, so you end up with weaker defense EVERYwhere.

Cam is just having an off day for sure, he does it every other game it seems. Brainfart/cloudy brain, whatever. The Carolina coaching is horrendous as well. Down 21 points, and you run it on first and second down in the 3rd quarter for basically no gain? Then Cam gets confused and throws out of bounds instead of even trying to get the first down? It's like they're actively trying to suck on both sides of the ball.



I always seem to pick the wrong players to start on my fantasy team lol, my starters always do shit and my bench always lights it up. It's god damn depressing

LOL don't feel bad, my entire roster is asleep today apparently, underperforming across the board. New England is getting shut out, Chicago is mauling Detroit, DeAndre Hopkins has zero yards in a 27-20 lead over Tennessee, etc.

It's luck at some level, can't help it. And whatever you do, NEVER trust the fantasy estimates NFL.com gives you, it's literally always waaaaaay off.

I mean like how is one supposed to predict that DeSean Jackson will only go for 5 yards against the damn Browns? lol

LOL true. And now Julio Jones has the highest yardage of his career the week he plays me in FF, after putting up 4-16 points in weeks 1 through 3. It's so random, he'd have huge games last year as well, and then just disappear against bad teams as well.



Welp, if nothing else, New England succeeded in reminding everyone that, yes, Tom Brady is still important. New England wound up being simultaneously far too conservative with Brissett (not letting him throw frequently enough), and trying to get too crazy with the running game. A lot of that is on McDaniels; especially late in the game when you're down by multiple scores, you have to get more creative with passing. Still, I will definitely take 3-1 with Brady coming back next week. Here's hoping he doesn't take as long to get readjusted as he did in 2009.



Whatever, at least my Seahawks won, very happy about that



Ravens corners got cooked all day by Crabcake of all people. Pretty sad to watch.



"You should be banned. Youre clearly flaming the president and even his brother who you know nothing about. Dont be such a partisan hack"

Fuck the Lions. And to make things worse my starting qb in fantasy was Stafford and guess who was on my bench, Matt Ryan.
