This thread will be pinned once we're under way.

If you see something happening, please describe the play instead of eg "WOW".

Please describe more of what you see, things that will help other fantasy owners eg Player X is seeing loads of targets, Player Y is running the ball with authority today etc

Remember, not all of us are watching your game.

 
Awful pass by Newton on the first play....picked off by Robinson

Saints inside the 10

Damn Sean Payton

Why the Hell do you trade up to get a guy you will not give opportunity to??

Oh - and Damn Jethro Collins too! :rant:

 
so marc ingram aint the 3rd down back, aint the exclusive first and 2nd down back, aint the goal line back-apparently behind Peter Thomas and Jed Collins...why were we so fired up about this guy again? Man ESPN guys nailed it.

someone shoot me with an Ingram bullet please.
It's official. God and Sean Payton hate me.
I think its more a function of how effective Sproles has been. I don't think anyone expected that.
 
yeah homey, but we didn't expect jed collins to have more tds than ingram either.

Not using Sproles in the RZ at all a huge mistake by N.O

oh, and WOW!!!!

These threds should be like a bunch of buddies sitting in a room. I'm not getting paid to do play by play for you. TIA FBG

 
Do NOT ##### with Steve Smith!!!!! Amazing

SS is 32 years old and it looked like he was 40inches in the air when he grabbed that pass :shock:

Newton with a nice play to escape a sack a great catch by Smith for a TD.

Late hit on Roman Harper assessed on the kickoff. Not sure how Smith didnt get penalized for picking up some Saint by the face mask.

 
big catch by stevie, carolina stays in it which means...you guessed it no INGRAM LEAN i keep hearing about. i need to slap myself and stop complaining.

 
With complete crap at QB the last few years it's good for football fans to see Steve Smith hook up with Cam this year.

What a play by Smith to go get the ball in the air like that, land on his feet, discard the defender and stroll into the endzone.

Complete cheap shot by Harper at the end.

Jenkins shouldn't have gotten in his face. He wasn't involved in the play. Everyone knows Smith is a bad###.
 
What a dumb call by Peyton on 3rd and short - run Sproles up the middle? Really?

 
I saw Smith drag Harper around by his facemask after Harper gave him that cheap shot. Harper better know who the F he is messing with.

He's been getting cute with the playcalling all season. On the first possession inside the five they ran it to PT, next play Ingram comes in and the hand it to the fullback. The Panthers dont bite and all go at Collins. The next play from the one they're throwing it on 3rd and 1. They scored the TD, but why put Brees at risk when you don't need to, and why did you trade up to draft Ingram?

He just loves to throw the ball...drives me insane, but tough to argue with the results. Today should be 60/40 run/pass, but it's going to end up the other way around. I just know it.

I'll argue that the Saints are at their best when they're running the ball as well as passing it. Getting cute inside the 5, or being up by two scores with 7 minutes and 3 minutes left in the 4th quarter against the Jags, and still throwing it with Brees is taking an unneeded risk. If Brees goes down the Saints lose a lot more than they win. Peyton's risk taking is maddening. Oh, and Ingram has looked good today with his extremely limited opportunities. 1st down on the three. Who wants to bet Ingram doesn't get the ball?
