That shit even spread to hockey talk, the only time it was funny was trying to figure out if Letang's name could stay the same or if it had to be LeLetang.

Pats win 36-7. Brady throws for 356 yds with 4 TDs and 0 INTs. Pats defense holds Miami to 14 yds rushing, had 5 sacks and 2 picks. Pretty lopsided game.

When cheating, everything is this lopsided. Dolphins should've just conceded the game.

If he's not guilty, then he's not. But, if he is, he can go join the Kings.

Some douchebag 'friend' in my league is hoarding all the QBs to piss me off cus I'm streaming QBs til Romo comes back.

Our whole roster, including bench is 12 spots. He has 4 fucking QBs ... 1/3 of his roster. Luck, Smith, Tannehill, and just added Bortles at 3am today.

I was going to pick up either Bortles or Tyrod for the next 2 weeks but now looks like Tyrod lol.

^ Tyrod is still available? He was in the top 10 before he got hurt. I've been using him since Romo went out - he's not as consistent as I'd like but has put up some credible numbers. Given the QB hording in my league, i feel lucky to have him.

After Miami overpaid for Suh, there was an article about him where Suh said he was "coming for" Tom Brady.

I was also using him until he also got hurt so I dropped him and picked up Bortles . All the teams in my league either have a stud that already had a bye and don't need a backup (Rodgers, Brady) or have a backup.

Sometimes defense is the best offense. A guy in my league is always looking at his upcoming opponent's roster and picking up guys he doesn't want used against him. If my bench wasn't so loaded I'd do the same thing.

My guess is this friend of yours isn't loading up on QB's to piss you off but instead to lower your chances of winning thus increasing his. FF is isn't about being friendly! You need to find weaknesses on his roster (which there has to be some since he's stocked up on QB's) and poach those positions in FA!

We are similar, but with all the high profile players getting injured no one is giving up a viable backup. And players like P. Manning and Luck - they are ranked 20th and 28th in our league, but no way you can feel good about putting them on waivers. Only 4 of the top 30 QBs are free agents.

That's strange, I don't think I've ever been in a league where people hoard QBs. Just position players.

I never keep a backup QB until needed. I drafted Ben this year and picked up Tyrod and Bortles to cover his absence.

Gotcha - Well Suh not sure if he is still "coming for" Tom, never showed up or simply left. Like I said above, he was a non-factor in the game.

I understand defense is the best offense sometimes, I've done that, but nothing like this.

His team is crap. He is doing it to piss me off.

DeAngelo Williams is without a doubt the top waiver pickup. I'm going to try to get him.

I guess next best would be Langford since Forte is injured.

And Still dunno what to think about Hillman/CJA. Both played well but looks like a split timeshare, for now.

Thank goodness I had DeAngelo on my roster already from week 1 and 2 as a Bell handcuff. I also grabbed Langford Sunday morning as a hedge that Forte might be traded - turns out that may pay off too.

So many bad injuries this week to some key players. Its very frustrating too, because at least in our league you either have Brady or Brees or you are not competitive.

The will be the top 2 waiver pickups this week. Lucky for you, you already have them. Nice.

The early indication on Forte's injury is that the star hurt his MCL, dodging an ACL tear that would have ended his season. Still, an MCL issue could sideline the star for a few weeks or more.
