TE optional league

I've never heard of that before.

Our dynasty league has always been TE-optional.

Daniels or Mahomes .. must win game

 

[sm8680]

Rolling with Jayden I'll either gets points or a goose egg. Going big Bo Nix matchup was enticing. But Jaylen is a gamer. I see Jaylen being highly motivated. Especially since Chicago passed him as first overall.

Daniels or Mahomes .. must win game

Im deciding at 4pm, if I need the home run its Jayden, but I kind of am buy the Mahomes/Kermit narrative and I think he might light up the Raiders today just to show he can still do it. But, have been waiting 22 games for that with Mahomes, Mahomes feels like the more sure floor

My other leagues, starting him over Cousins in a Guillotine League and over Baker in a must win.

 

[ffmail4me]

Starting Daniels over Mahomes and Cousins. Chooo Mother Truckin Chooo!

 

[BearsFan4Life]

Starting Daniels over Mahomes and Cousins. Chooo Mother Truckin Chooo!

If 2nd half goes similiar to 1st half of games I need the higher ceiling so probably rolling with Daniels (assuming he is starting)

 

[sm8680]

Jayden is active and will play

 

[DeaLerZ]

Is he healthy enough to actually play like himself? Did anyone see him practicing and how he looked??

Touch choice. I'd go with Mahomes. Daniels is returning too soon and likely to get hurt again against a tough Chicago defense.

JAYDEN EFFING DANIELS!!!!! LEGEND

 

[BobbyLayne]

legendary stuff

 

[KingPrawn]

The arm strenght on that throw. Wow

The arm strenght on that throw. Wow

With a rib injury

Guys like this do not come around very often. Congrats Commander’s fan.

Forget rookie of the year, this is arguably the NFL MVP so far. Its amazing the difference one QB (I know its a new staff too) can make.

Through 8 games anyway, I'd very much argue Daniels>Stroud.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Is he the next Patrick Mahomes?

 

[ffmail4me]

Is he the next Patrick Mahomes?

Better

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Well I sure wish I held out for Daniels instead of starting Tua.

Reading these as a Bears fan is incredibly annoying after seeing 2-3 obvious holds right in front of the ref.

 

[The Frankman]

Jayden Daniels’ completed 21-of-38 passes for 326 yards and one touchdown and added eight carries for 52 additional yards in the Commanders’ 18-15, Week 8 win over the Commanders.

The Commanders scored just one touchdown in this game, but it was the only one that mattered. With just two seconds left in the game and trailing by three, Daniels dropped back from his own 48-yard line in hopes of creating a miracle. After navigating the pocket for several seconds, the rookie who played all game while battling through a rib injury let it rip downfield into a pile of players, setting up a tip drill that landed in the hands of Noah Brown for a 52-yard touchdown with no time left on the clock. Daniels and the Commanders’ offense got within scoring range several times in Sunday’s win, but settled for field goals against a feisty Bears defense. It’s only natural that their only touchdown would come from nowhere close to scoring distance. It’s only been eight weeks, but Daniels is already looking like the 2024 Offensive Rookie of the Year. He played turnover free football and it goes without saying that the Commanders are riding high heading into Week 9 against the Giants, who they beat in a field goal fest earlier this year. Daniels will be a high-end QB1 in the rematch.

Between his Junior and Senior year at LSU he started using it. I don't think it was a coincidence the jump he made between the two years. It was night and day.

 

[BlackCrowes]

Doesn’t run anymore.heck of a rookie QB. Kind of average fantasy wise now

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Daniels could have 3 tds but Washington has had like 3 one yard td runs.

Pain man.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Likely lost my week due to the insanely pedestrian numbers from JD today.

 

[ffmail4me]

His poor numbers were due to MULTIPLE drops (at least 5) and yes, all those vulture goal line TDs.

 

[RenegadeRoy]

Tough game against a tough D. As others have said, a few TDs and drops hurt his fantasy day quite a bit. No turnovers is nice though. Brighter days ahead

 

[Mr.Blonde]

Daniels has been doing a great job setting up his RB’s for short scores.

My league does not award points for this.

 

[bonsai]

Tough game against a tough D.

This.

 

[FantasyMC]

Daniels could've ran one in at least.

 

[BlackCrowes]

Daniels could've ran one in at least.

he's not running since the injury. hence the problem

 

[RenegadeRoy]

No point to have him do those goal line runs when Ekeler is operating fine (or Robinson when healthy)

 

[-jb-]

I'm in a league that gives more points the further out the TD is, so I wind up seeing this more acutely - but WAS seems to have an incredible amount of TDs scored from within the 5 compared to other teams. It's wild.

It sure feels that way as a Daniels owner and a former BRob owner (who loved all the GL work).

So many tackles within the 10 or pass plays OOB near the goal line.

Drives me nuts!

Chris Simms
Jayden Daniels plays such a mature brand of football. More control in an offense more advanced than even CJ Stroud's last year

Interested to watch the film of Steelers-Commanders. Jayden Daniels hung in there, but that was new for him. Welcome to Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh D that’ll give you some crazy looks. Welcome to Watt and Highsmith who aren’t gonna let you get outside

Whats with another 1 yard TD by a RB? Just can't catch a break

 

[BlackCrowes]

No limitations my ###. He ain’t right. Hasn’t been right since the rib.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Yeah his fantasy value has hit an enormous wall the last month. Sure sucks to see.

Reminds me of a few years ago when Josh Allen was hurt. Enough talent to gut out some fantasy production but left a lot of meat on the bone.

 

[FarFromHome]

Started him over Burrow. Smh

Jayden Daniels has an injured hand apparently. #RaiseHail
