Ya there's generally not a lot of reliable tight ends - at least in terms of fantasy output - out there, so when you can get one of the few guys at that position who've proven they can do it in the past...you kinda gotta just ride em out as long as they're healthy, cus the baseline for the average non star TE is pretty close to like 0 points any given week.

Slap in face Graham went off tonight...  I assume the guy that has him is starting Gronk.

A lot people are picking the Bears. I just don't have the confidence in them... Even though Packers QB kind of sucks, I'd like to believe they could still beat the Bears.

I'd like to believe too, but the Packers defense has to show up in addition to Hundley being allowed to do more and performing better than in his previous two starts.

Last week the Lions didn't have to punt a single time. I feel that the defense is getting off the hook too easily because the majority of people focus on Hundley. Mike McCarthy's playcalling can't be ignored either; it has been almost entirely focused on not losing the game instead of winning it. But he should know that if he doesn't start to try, it will be a foregone conclusion that the Packers will finish with a losing record.

I'm genuinely curious at this point; do you want the Packers to keep winning despite knowing that the best case scenario is almost assuredly nothing better than a first round playoff exit, or are you pulling for them to lose in the hopes of a better draft pick?

I haven't seen any timetable for Rodgers' return, so I don't rule it out that he could be available for the playoffs if the Packers made it. Regardless, I'd choose a chance for playoffs over draft pick order any day of the week. I'd also pick 8-8 over 4-12.

The truth is, anything worse than 9-7 isn't likely to get you into the playoffs in the NFC this season, and that's not gonna happen for the Packers. That said, I'd still be rooting for wins too. I know losing is good for draft position and all but.....who likes to watch their team lose? Not me. Besides, drafting isn't really an exact science. Teams fuck up with great draft position all the time, or find a gem somewhere in a late round.
