I got my first win, thanks in part to....wait for it....Harrison Butker (KC K). Got me 18 points, which was 4th highest on my roster behind Tyreek Hill, Ben Roethlisberger, and Elliott. And Elliott was only 1.2 points ahead.

I think that int was a catch.
The defensive holding call was accurate, it was just the timing that was sus. Sherman does it fairly regularly, saw it a lot when he was in Seattle. But it turned a 3rd and 15 into a 1st and 10.

^ Seems like a coin flip to me. I can see TB/CLE becoming a sloppy shootout...4 TDs and 3 INTs for both QBs wouldn't be a big surprise. I moved on from Stafford as my backup a while ago and he's currently available in both of my leagues. I think Patricia working to establish the run game has hurt his fantasy production this year. His attempts per week have been low the past 3 games.
today.
Panthers @ Iggles!

No cheating but would agree Trubisky missed a lot of opportunities. Also would agree with special teams assessment.

The KC offense looks unstoppable. Good grief. And I get back to my losing ways because of Hunt. 
SF deserves better than what it's getting from QB, but the O line couldn't stop anything either.

I have both Gurley and Hunt on my team....let's just say this week is pretty good so far! 6 TDs between 2 players....not too shabby 
But yeah as a KC/Chiefs fan....mmmm that was awesome. I can get used to scoring 40+ week in and week out.
Oh and our defense showed up today. Holding them to 10pts AND getting a defensive TD. 6-1

Anyways, Bears are back to earth at 3-3 and they have some big-time adjustments to do after getting doses of humble pie from playing the Fish and the Pats. The sad thing is, both those games and even against the Fackers were winnable if Chicago was not too busy sabotaging itself.
@ Raiders...

Yeah your DEF can only do so much when the offense basically says: "Oh hai visiting NFL Team, here let me roll the red carpet out for ya...here's the buffet, here's the football, and here's the endzone. Make yourselves at home!"

I agree - I can understand the strategy. They start playing in Vegas next year - Carr clearly hasn't panned out so why not draft the future QB and make a splash as you start over in a new market. They are going to get a top 5 pick if they keep up the way they are, Dallas just handed them a mid round pick. Maybe Carr gets them an early second...

He probably would be a lot better with a team that had an offensive line that actually does something but thats not what we have. We either need to fix the O line (which we can't seem to do) or get a mobile QB.
