Was lucky with my opponent having Bell in his lineup, but think I would've won even if one of his backups played, but not by much. Hoping Dez Bryant finds a club as soon as possible.

Looking at his line up had he replaced Bell with Austin Ekeler, then replaced his other RB, & TE, he would just have won.

That's true, I just looked at the Bell - Ekelere substitution.

Not a good start by Gruden; Oakland fans already started moaning soon about his salary and handling of Khalil Mack.

The Browns did the most Everton thing possible,  ;D created 6 turnovers in a home game & still didn't win in ending there 17 game losing streak, since 88 the NFL teams are 97-2-1 when forcing 6 or more turnovers, the 1 being the Browns tie. ;D

Losing your only chance of silverware this season to your city rival. At home. With the most expensive squad ever assembled.

No problem mate.

Out of my 4 leagues I start the season 3-1, scoring over 100 in all 4. I'll take that! Tyreek Hill's monster week saved my arse in one of them.

I think there have been 4 losses in total and the Browns had 2 of them ;D. I might be wrong though.

There`s no apparent strategy.

Good grief. I'd assume they'd avoid a cap hit if they release him again at some point

Honestly, I think we`re back to the same level we were before Reggie came onboard-starting from scratch, freeing up cap room and scrabbling around for free agents to improve is incrementally. It all suggests Gruden has no confidence in what has gone before.

Not sure of the regulations, but i believe players who are suspended don't count as part of the team roster, also don't get paid outside any guaranteed money, so prob won't count as part of the cap until the suspension ends.

I've stopped watching the NFL closely but I remember he was very highly rated coming from the Bengals (?) as a running back coach (?) and he doesn't have a QB to fall back on but fuck me, that record is indefensible.
Messi in fact doesn't have a recognizable trait.

Hoping Collins gets a lot more run tonight. Need him to become the workhorse I expected him to be.

he was basically given a free pass last year because they were "building"

if he fucks up again this year I reckon he's out.

6 TDs in the first half and none in the 2nd? looks a bit odd.

I`ve lost two starting (pisspoor) RBs already. Don`t think I`ll be doing much.

Any of you fine people wanna set up a fantasy group off here? We can use Line or Discord. Or Whatsapp if you guys want.

We need more shit talking and trading, everyone will get way more into it when there's personal insults going around.
Maybe the group, led by your leadership, will see these drafts as PR functions and brilliant use of humor

There's a high probability I won't last much longer on here and I'd at least like to harrass you all about your weird Fantasy moves every week!

Discord seems to the most popular chat app these days, everyone ok with that?

The NFL fantasy site, has a section near the bottom of the page where you can post discussions when logged in, maybe we can use that.

Copy and paste this into Discord I think. I've never set a group up before, let me know if it doesn't work.

Statto no pressure to join if you don't want to, just thought it might be fun to get some proper shit talking going.
