Is this the official 2013 Fantasy Football thread?

[SP33Demon]

So who thinks that last call was, as Brady mentioned, "Fucking bullshit!"? The "Fucking" part of what Brady said was aired by the way. Friggin hilarious.

Maybe if the pass was actually heading in the vicinity of Gronk. But it was way shorter than Gronk's route, so the refs got it right on the INT. Brady's supermodel wife can wipe up the delicious tears.

The call was obvious defensive holding.

Cost me the fantasy game.

 

[MisterJackson]

I think you're both right. But I do agree with Spidey more here. Clearly there should have been a defensive holding/pass interference call.

Was the ball en route to Gronk? You could argue no, but odds are he was headed to that ball had he not been wrapped up.

Sorry for your loss, Spidey

 

[MisterJackson]

Better info. Clarified it for me anyway. I think Gronk was planting his feet to return on the ball.

Look at a flex play...

I can pick up Harry Douglas or Bobby Rainey or Boykin


It is a PPR league...thoughts? Advice?

Got Woodhead and sproles at RB right now...J. Bell is hurt...and I have no other RB at the moment besides shady who is on bye.

WR's are Garcon and Gordon.

Thanks

Without a doubt, Rainey.

6-5, squeaked by with a win by 5 points.

Unfortunately, two of my starters (Welker and Reed) suffered concussions! I can easily slot in a replacement WR and not lose much thanks to my depth, but picking up a TE is going to be tough. Maybe Pettigrew? TB's secondary isn't too bad and that may mean he plays a bigger role in the offense. The only other decent TE available is Miller.

Why is Scott Tolzien projected so high for next week?
With Rodgers out and Foles on BYE, I need to pick up a QB

 

[MisterJackson]

Without a doubt, Rainey.

Yep. What this guy said.

Maybe because they face Minnesota?? Not sure.

Is McGloin available in your league?

 

[dbk]

we just had this trade go down:
Aaron Rodgers and Nate Washington for Coby Fleener and Michael Crabtree.

Apparently, the guy giving Rodgers away rejected the initial offer of RG3 for Rodgers and Dalton. He needs a QB this week and he turned RG3 away because he wants to go pick up McCown off of waivers.

 

[glenn1]

Need to cut someone to pick up a bye replacement for Foles. Drop MJD or SJax? Or both just on principle?

 

[leeland]

Yep. What this guy said.

Thanks guys...was listening to Fantasy radio on the way home...pretty much decided it...hope to get both if I can...will setting for the RB!

interesting i ended up getting Rainy thru the WW.

that clevand RB went first and then a Kicker and ended up with Rainy. Rainy will be my flex play.

Now i need a TE, Reed needs to pass the concussion test, i dont know when its going to happen. But Delanie Walker is out there, I just need to figure out who to drop, I have KC and Tenn or Lamar Miller.

PPR league, My backs are Charles, Zac Stacy, Joique Bell, Rainy and Lamar. So Lamar can be expendable. Same with my Defenses. I'm playoff bound and sadly our playoff goes into week 17.

Might need to look for defenses that have good matchups for the rest of the season.

 

[Aharami]

my waiver pick for Rainey didn't go thru. Figured as much since everyone was probably going for him.


hmmm. Tolzien, McCown, or Alex Smith for this week's QB?
edit, also throwing in Mike Glennon in the fray...

edit2: picked up Smith. Thoughts?

Drop SJax... dude's worthless.

Smith seems like the safe bet from that crew. Tolzien is facing Minnesota though.

Regarding Lamar Miller, I'd pick up Daniel Thomas instead (playing him this week in deep league). He looked much better lately and is getting more snaps and will be able to run on Carolina (their Achilles heel). But looking at your RBs, you seem to be fine without either.

Defenses, check out the Bills after this week's bye. I've been tooting their horn for awhile in this thread and the gig is up after last week - they are now top 5 run Defense and top 10 overall. Not sure what they look like through week 17 though. A good spot start for this week and the next is Cleveland.

Delanie Walker is a very solid pickup. There are some high end TE2's emerging like Housler (picked him up in one league) and I expect T.Wright to do better against the Lions.

I started Flexing homerun threats since I'm barely on the playoff cusp and picked up Tavon Austin this week. Next week I'll start Marquise Goodwin, Johnson should be back but Woods may not.

The 3rd player added was Nate Burleson, slot receivers have done well against TB so don't hesitate to start him.

 

[dbk]

I was able to get Marshawn Lynch from a guy who was in a must win situation by trading him Rainey and Josh Gordon.. (i got Colston back, too... somehow). Starting next week I'll have Charles and Lynch. LOL

72 had an injured shoulder. The doc was testing for possible nerve damage, loss of feeling to light touch.

Wow.

Makes my dez and Megatron combo look average.

Right. I know what's going on. Still, out of context, it's fucking hilarious.

 

[MisterJackson]

Anybody have a dog(s) in tonights fight?

I've got Brees and Graham. Hope the low scoring Thursday bug doesn't bite em.
