What a joy checking ESPN NFL scores on my phone, opening Chargers Titans and scrolling slowly to see 20 points and 0 TD for Ward, 0 TD for RB, 0 TD for WR, and knowing I had the Titans D. Might be my high point of this contest, don't expect to last much longer.

Through 9 weeks, here are the weekly averages for the 8 worst contest D's:

1.6 - NYJ - $4
2.8 - SF - $5
3.7 - NYG - $5
3.9 - BAL - $7
4.0 - GB - $6
4.0 - LV - $3

A special thanks to the 713 folks who made the Ravens D the 13th most common D from the start. And FWIW, the other two $7 D's are currently ranked 14th (DEN) and 16th (BUF). Denver was the most common contest D, even at max price.

With 7 options for $3 each, that makes 21 different combos you could've had for $6. And with 3 options for $7 each, that makes 63 different $3 combos you could've chosen vs a single $7 one. 62 of those options are currently outscoring the $7 single D's. The only exception is DEN (54 points) vs LV/MIA (53 points).

Adding on to my post above...
there were only 3 contest D's for $7 each - they were selected 3464 times
there were only 7 contest D's for $3 each - they were selected 3614 times

52 Karty owners hoping he keeps his job

Rams signed K Harrison Mevis, formerly of the Jets, to their practice squad.
The former Birmingham Stallions kicker will provide some competition for Joshua Karty. Karty has struggled mightily this year, connecting on just 10-of-15 field goals and 23-of-26 PATs. Two of his field goal misses came on Sunday against the Saints. Mevis could take the job from Karty as soon as Week 10 against the 49ers.

Love your kicker and D analysis. Seems strange the top D never outscore the cheapest options over a season. I’d think the top options would come out on top more than half the time.

Learned from you and always take your advice. Props!

15 from Franklin in an awful Thursday night game. I’ll take it.

 

[Irelad]

Dang, lucky you. Got 5.4 from Sutton and 5.5 from Tre Tucker, despite Tre supposedly getting more work with Jakobi gone... really rough start to the week for my roster. Tre also had a touchdown negated by a pick play call...

15 from Franklin is a nice positive, but 6.85 for a QB score with Prescott on bye is a difficult hill to climb.

QB - 6.85 - Must use Geno
RB - 2.80 - Harvey
PK - 1.00 - Carlson

My start couldn't have been any worse. Derrick Henry must score 20 minimum to keep me alive.

 

[Golden Gopher]

Not a great start on a week when I was cautiously optimistic going into the week (no byes for me this week). That said, I'm missing (at a minimum) Stroud at QB, Hampton at RB, and Pearsall at WR.

Geno's 6.85 isn't going to cut it. Not that I expected to use his score, but that means I'm relying 100% on Aaron Rodgers on Sunday night.

Complete dud for Sutton (5.4). Need two (and preferably at least three) decent scores from Odunze, Downs, Egbuka, Bateman, Doubs, and Lane.

6 pts from the LVR defense might be their best week of the year. That said, hoping NE can beat that.

I have a full set of RB (minus Hampton) and three TE's, so I'm still somewhat optimistic, but I'm starting to get the feeling I'm going to have to sweat it out this week in a similar fashion to my DEN survivor pick last night.

I think Baltimore will be able to get after Mcarthy, and I think they way you get after the Vikings blitz heavy defense is to pound the rock. Baltimore knows what it has to do to keep pace and have a lot of their defenders back now. There's reason for some amount of optimism....fingers and toes crossed.
