Thanks for the reminder to submit my lineup.

Yay I won! Lol

Having Goff is so frustrating. Rams will score 30+ points and he’ll have 15 fantasy points. They FEED gurley in the red zone. 

Still not sure how my wife got Aaron Rodgers, Kamara, AJ Green, Kelce etc....-and JuJu

I'm 5-0 somehow. My WRs aren't very good, but so far it hasn't mattered.

Same, 5-0 after tonight. I've been in the same league since '04 with a lot of success up to 2012, since then my teams have been a pile of shit. Nice to be top of the league somehow 5 weeks in.

For you college gurus, who will be the rookie stud RB/WR next year since i'm looking at a top pick in our keeper league draft.

Not Bryce Love.

Should I go with Ertz, OBJ, or Barkley tonight in a DK single game?? I can choose 2 of them  

It’s a “captain” style game. I choose 1 guy to be my captain, they cost 1.5x their salary but they earn 1.5x points. 

I have Wentz(capt), Eagles D, Clement, Elliott(kicker). I’m thinking of going with Ertz and Barkley. But I’m also thinking about Ertz and OBJ. 

Wentz loves Ertz, and Barkley sucks. I'd go Ertz and OBJ.

Well it appears Shurmur benched OBJ for the first 2 drives. And if course Barkley rips off a big gainer. 

I was going to go with Ertz and OBJ anyway, but I’m not surprised I picked wrong so far. 

Also, everything I read or saw said Clement was going to play a big role tonight. And now apparently he won’t be playing. 

Hahah maybe not. God I hate fantasy football. 

Has OBJ always returned punts and I just havent noticed? 

Edit: I guess this could have went into the NFL discussion thread. I'm sorry guys. Don't be mad at me.

Barkley sucks? You kidding me? He’s incredible 

Barkley sucks...I’ve heard it all now. Shouldn’t have been drafted anywhere near the top, but he might be a top 3 back already. Top 5 for sure.

Give credit where credit is due, he had a nice game last night. My biggest issue with him was on full display last week against the Panthers. He had 15 carries for 48 yds. In that 15 carries he had two runs, one for 30 and one for 20. So 2 carriers for 50 yds, and 13 carriers for -2 yds. That is exactly who he is. Very inconsistent and hard to rely on. Having watched almost all of his snaps at Penn State, he was always a 1 step forward 2 steps back kind of guy. As Lalely said, drafting him at 2 was laughably bad. I disagree that he's a top 5 back, he's a top 10 big play guy for sure, but as a running back he leaves a lot to be desired.

I mean, when a rb averages 4 yards a carry, that doesn’t actually mean every carry is for 4 yards. You do know that right?

I’m not going to bash a RB who gets 150 yards on 13 carries because 9 of those carries were for only a few yards. That’s just idiotic.

He also had 4 catches for 81 and 2 TDs.

No mention of NY's Oline and entire offensive scheme is pathetic? He gets hit in the backfield and has guys bouncing off of him constantly.

Same excuses that ppl pointed towards while avg 2 yds p carry against Ohio State. It's actually that he bounces too much outside, undisciplined running style, and shitty vision.

You are the only one in the world who thinks he’s an undisciplined runner with shitty vision. Lol

No I'm not. Read some draft stuff.
