Agree. Even with all that talent on D, the offense gives them no chance to succeed.

Carr to the Jags ?!

Not a bad idea to ultra tank this year while still in Oakland...those fans are already pissed so who cares if you lose a bunch more if you're leaving. Next year in Vegas they start showing off their new rookies and maybe big free agents, the new and improved team starts here and now, etc. Lots of advertising material to go along with the new stadium talk.

That's what I read...acting like a jackass so they threw him out. Either on drugs or really drunk or both it sounds like.

I'm guessing there was plenty of both at a party thrown by an NFL player.

Apparently he's the nephew of Jim Kelly who vouched for him and that why John Elway signed off on that pick.

Maybe he'll pop up in the CFL like Manziel.....

He went off in 2016. Only Ole Miss QB to ever win against Bama, Auburn, and LSU in the same season. Beat Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl too.


He also was kicked off his HS football team, college football team, and NFL team. That has to be some kind of record.

I wonder what % of players get to hit Mia vs the ones she puts on blast. I'm sure she has a steady sausage supply regardless.

That’s was #3 on Urban Dictionary.


Fo Sho Shorty was #4.

Lol. Maybe I'll just spell it. I try to be careful at work. All the more since I was oblivious to it's other meanings. Who knows what wild stuff I've been implying.....

I'm struggling here.. should I start McCaffrey or Mack tomorrow? Standard scoring.

McCaffrey seems to have a safe floor but not much upside, whereas Mack doesn't have a safe floor but is trending up.

Or Ingram?

Khalil Mack is a bit injured so, it depends on the scouting report on his health. He was dropping back in coverage lots due to his kink...

I also have McCaffery and Mack, but I'm in PPR so McCaffery has more value. I show Mack is still questionable.

You're right it's tough - most rankings I saw had them next to each other. May depend a bit on how much risk you can tolerate. McCaffery is a known quantity - he will get touches for sure and has the safer floor as you said. But he hasn't scored all season and probably won't against Bal on the ground anyway. But if you need something extra ordinary to win and if Mack does in fact start, I think he has a better chance of finding the end zone. But he has such a limited body of work to look at (basically 1 game), and that ankle injury is troublesome. All that being said, McCaffery might be the better/safer play unless you are desperate for points.

I think Ingram is a lottery pick. Two games with very different work loads - no real way to tell what his anticipated usage may be. At least you know with McCaffery and Mack (if healthy) will be on the field a lot.

Happy I started McCaffrey. Not happy I started Winston and his 4 INTS over Wilson.

Too bad you couldn't have started both - they both had good days.

I scored the second highest points in our 12 team league and lost.
