throwing at Slay?

last 8 games: 16-29, 163 yards, 0tds, 1int, 57.4 QB rating.

 

[Gottabesweet]

And my 3.5 lead is gone.

 

[BobbyLayne]

pretty blatant hold missed

 

[Gottabesweet]

That should be Cooks in the backfield not Snead. Tonight is just going to suck.

 

[Gottabesweet]

3 freaking catches for Hightower now.

 

[TZMarkie]

I'm rather surprised this thread isn't blowing up the internet................

I can imagine a TON of Shark Pool members have their seasons on the line.

Maybe they are all watching this P.O.S.

[Gottabesweet]

I'm here watching this Snead Hightower show pissed as all hell.

 

[BobbyLayne]

sloppy shoulder tackles

wrap the #### up

GD it

 

[Gottabesweet]

Colston smh

 

[Gottabesweet]

Is there a way not to have Slay on Cooks? Solid FBG rankings as usual Dodds. Screens? Reverses?

 

[fred_1_15301]

Phew thank God cooks didn't get that

 

[BobbyLayne]

some good DBs back there

23 is NFW, and 28 (Diggs) is coming on in his rookie year

 

[TZMarkie]

So lets get this straight.

Slay has proven to be one of the best corners in the league, yet Brees is throwing in and around him repeatedly.

Even in back to back plays.

Got it.

[Gottabesweet]

And my 3.5 lead is gone.

Keep us updated

Will do

Our fifth place game in the is in a virtual deadheat (two FBGs going at it.) I can live blog it if you need something to root for.

Actually, it's Bree's v. Stafford, you can figure it out.

you would have benched Cooks if Dodds ranked him lower?

 

[fred_1_15301]

The Saints defense is hard to watch

Yeah. For other options. It's my own fault. Dodds has been terrible this year. Apparently only Lions fans know how good Slay is.

fair enough. Cooks is a guy who I had locked into my lineup regardless of match up.

 

[belljr]

That's not Tate

 

[BobbyLayne]

For those who think the NFL is all fixed, tonight's crap game is proof that it isn't.

Not sure if serious...

Hard laydown coming, right? They looked disinterested in St Louis.

Then again, this is a bread n butter Stafford matchup. Bad team with a bad defense usually is a stat padder for Matthew.

Could go either way. Not expecting a close game regardless. Somebody's gonna cry uncle fairly quick.

It's always interesting when you have no idea which team will show up.

 

[Gottabesweet]

I'm not sure if this 14-3 lead is good for Cooks or good for Hightower dump offs? As a Bills fan it baffles me how Spiller isn't the Riddick of this offense. If Spiller is a one and done he could end up in NY with Chan Gailey who knew how to use him.

Cooks already has 2 targets and one was in the end zone. Now with the Saints down 14-3, I'm pretty sure he's due for a big game.

plus, he's Brandin Cooks. so yeah

little worried about Watson having zero targets thus far though

 

[Gottabesweet]

Snead #5

I never personalize the FBG rankings. When I look at it I'm always like Guy 1, Guy 2, Guy 3. One year Dodds is top ten, the next year it's Trembley, the next year its someone else. Don't believe me, check that rankings site that shows the accuracy of like 100 FF prognosticators.

Anyway, they all thought I should play Benjamin (in Seattle) because, ya know, targets - Hartline is out. Had him way above Michael Floyd (a guy they still may not have figured out.) I laughed and closed the browser.

i'm not smarter than the guys who do this full time, but you gotta trust yourself over what they say sometimes.

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

How do you miss that call???

 

[Gottabesweet]

Spiller should be getting 15-20 touches.

 

[Gottabesweet]

Spiller is soft. It's why he doesn't get touches. Isn't reliable. This is crushing if he's hurt.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Spiller out on his feet

 

[fred_1_15301]

Crushing to your fantasy team lol. That's about it

 

[Gottabesweet]

Nice throw Brees.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Ansah OK? #### he was running around untouched what happened?

 

[BobbyLayne]

Looked like they were working on his right shoulder

 

[Gottabesweet]

And the Saints. If they stay in this 14-3 hole they'd be wise to have Spiller there. He and AA are just not used by either team and I don't get it.

 

[fantasycurse42]

Always dangerous when you've got a 250 pound FB as your lead back. Smooth Payton, you ########

 

[Neofight]

Brees looks lost out there. Ugly game so far.

 

[BobbyLayne]

guess hyperextended a bit there, hopefully NBD (Ansah)

 

[belljr]

Artificial turf is the devil

 

[BobbyLayne]

11 point lead with 40 minutes left is usually when we start turtling up

Flynn sighting. Told you someone would cry uncle quick in this game. Typical Week 15 we're out of it and I'm not going balls to the walls for this #### game.

 

[Gottabesweet]

J. Bell so stupid.

 

[VaTerp]

Wasted play.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Oh, if anyone is offended....let's just say the training staff is extra careful this time of year.

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

Golden Tate is so impressive after the catch.

 

[T with T]

I hope brees is ok

 

[Buffaloes]

Sean Payton sees Joique Bell and envisions a 12-headed RB centered around Bell, Hightower, 3 slow white FBs, and a dynamic pass catching RB who gets the ball 3 times up the gut a game

 

[Gottabesweet]

I hope brees is ok

I wonder if his shoe is on yet.

 

[BobbyLayne]

sick move Theo

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

Sick.

 

[belljr]

That's a juke
