What have we learned thru Week 5 (1 Viewer)

[Northbound Train]

Here's some quick takes...feel free to add on.

NFC NORTH

The obvious being a LIons homer...we can SCORE....once we learn to play better D and stay more disciplined we can win on any given week. These so-called good Rams with all world Bradford leading them just got ##### slapped all over the field. Lions and Stafford, Best, Pettigrew, CJ etc should be viable FF options weekly.

Pack are in in trouble .....Finley possibly losing time, Rodgers maybe concussed, Jennings basically invisible and ZERO running game. Don't like much in regards to FF here.

Da Bears....Forte looked great but it was against the anemic Panthers...who stink in all facets of the game. Worst 4-1 team in ball!!!

Vikes....we'll see tomorrow if they're pretenders or contenders

NFC EAST

Skins are for real...big win today and Shanny has this team believing. I don't think we've seen anywhere near the FF potential in McNabb, feel like he can finsih top 12 at QB which would be solid value was drafted considering where he was drafted. Expect to see Torain contribute much more and Moss to continue on a weekly basis.

Eagles....entire O takes a hit with Vick on the sidelines. Niners win going away tonight

Cowboys....ahhhhhhh, hate this team. WORST. COACH. EVER!!! Nuff said. ROmo is so inconsistent as is the whole club

G-Men...tough to figure this jeckyl and hyde club out. Don't trust anybody but Nicks + Bradshaw as FF regulars. Lions beat them next week

NFC SOUTH

Atlanta looks to be solid in all facets of the game... Ryan to White seems unstoppable. Turner needs to get on tack, hopefully today was a tell of what's to come.

Saints are horrible right now....NO running game and just got beat by Max Hall. Spread the ball far too much for my liking....sell Colston if you can find a takers. COuld easily be on a 3 game slide right now

Tampa...really???? Impressive. Not great from a FF perspective but damn

Carolina....good luck on the battle with Buffalo for first pick!!!

NFC WEST

Zona....what, 3-2 with a -50 point differential Huge W today against the AInts and some solid play from Fitz finally. Think he'll be a "buy" if you can get him. Who is the feature back going to be? Wells had all the carries today but Hightower has a very nice ypc

Seattle....on a BYE and just acquired Lynch. Think this is a team to stay far away from a fantasy standpoint!!!

Rams ....just lost Clayton (possibly for season) and don't impress me one bit at all...Detroit, yes Detroit just embarrassed them. Bradford in a dynasty ONLY

Niners....Gore goes wild and SF saves their season tonight!!!! Niners come back and win this god awful division.

More to come.....

 

[JbizzleMan]

Chargers will probably not make the playoffs this year.

 

[timschochet]

Mike Williams (TB) looks better every week. I actually played him this week because one of my starters was on a bye, but I may continue to leave him in the lineup.

 

[SYMPHONY X]

More than ever, nothing seems to make sense in the NFL, both real football, and fantasy wise. Many "no-name" wideouts leaving the preseason top 15 to 20 wideouts in their dust. Stud WR theory completely destroyed through 5 weeks! (unless you own Austin or Roddy).

Arizona beating the Saints today with an undrafted rookie at QB and Anderson for part of the game..my gawd am I glad that I gave up on betting on football games about 5 years ago.

Tampa Bay beating Cincy in Cincy..well, they are still the Bungles afterall.

AFC will be decided between three teams..Ravens, Jets, and Stillers. Colts ain't got the running game to hang with these three in January.

NFC..your guess is as good as mine. It is a complete toss-up right now.

Gotta love football!

I'd love to hear your take on the Bucs's D. I'm sure they're available on most WWs. Are they worth picking up? At least for their home games?And what are their strengths and weaknesses?

I don't think you've been paying attention the last 5 years.This is why much of the offseason draft talk and strategy people use around here is ridiculous. People get stuck with the idea that if they just drafted a guy to be their WR1, he's going to be their WR1. They assume that because they drafted a guy who's supposed to be in a good situation, that he's actually going to be in a good situation.

In reality, everything gets blown up every year, and next year at this time people will probably be saying the same thing yet again, and once against forgetting about this year and all years past.

 

[Northbound Train]

Ahhhhh, the Eagles.....Kolb to Celek is back.

It's incredible how much Celek's stock will rise and fall depending on who is under center.

 

[Northbound Train]

AFC EAST

Pats ~ Always a threat with Brady around....not sure the loss of Moss will hurt them as much as some may think. Brady is similar to Brees + Manning in the fact that he'll just expose the weak link on D and find a new target weekly if need be. Moss was averaging 46 yrd PER GAME over L12 before the deal. They'll be there at the end and I think Hernandez will benefit most in FF.

Jets ~ AFC cream of the crop. Sanchez is managaing the game allowing the D and some solid run O out of L.T to take care of things. Grab Greene....really think L.T wears down and Greene is the guy late

Bills ~ First pick in 2011? I think Spiller has more value down the road, they're gonna let him play soon enough....how can you not see what you have when you're season is toast 5 games in

Fins ~ Not sold on this club....sure they have some decnt weapons in Brown/Williams but I just think they're a year or two away....MArshall is the only Fin I want on my FF team

AFC NORTH

Steelers ~ Hate this team but damn they can play. Tomlin is a effin good coach...to come out of that Big Ben mess with a 3-1 record and atop the division says something about this guys coaching ability. Quarter season Coach of the Year!!! I realize they're 0.5 GB but they've played a game less....this team is full of FF potential. Obviously Mike Wallace + Ward get a huge upgrade and buy now if you still have that Owner that you can beat out....I don't think Mendenhall's FF value takes much of hit, sure I think they'll pass more but he's been a horse and PITT ball says run and run some ####en more!!!

Ravens ~ Beast of a team....talk about black + blue up top again. Solid all around club with some new playmakers on O. Boldin is going to take this team real deep...just the outside threat of him and the opening up underneath for Ray Rice will make this O a team to be reckoned with.

Bungles ~ JOke of a team....don't bet on this club and sell and Bengals that you can get value for. Ced Ben is 3 yards and a cloud of dust and the two primadonna's out wide are not helping this club. It's only a matter of time before Ocho Stinko starts bellyaching that he's not getting the ball enough. Another over-rated Coach here...team is ready to implode

Browns ~ Impressed at their play....still lacking some playmakers but they're on the upside for those in Dynasty leagues...Hillis is a beast. Give this team a year or two before they compete

 

[Horses Mouth]

Good job NT

 

[packersfan]

Bungles ~ JOke of a team....don't bet on this club and sell and Bengals that you can get value for. Ced Ben is 3 yards and a cloud of dust

I agree the Bengals are frauds but Benson went for 144 today. He's not the problem. The problem is their defense lacks playmakers and today Palmer killed them with costly mistakes. But I think the biggest issue on this team is an over-rated defense.

 

[Northbound Train]

AFC SOUTH

WOW....4 clubs at 3-2

Colts ~ Let's start with Manning and company. This team does not impress me whatsover. If not for D.Bowe blowing a gift wrapped TD today these Colts may be 2-3. Their run D is not good....sure it held a formible duo in Jones + Charles down but I honestly pin that on the baffoon Haley then a good game plan by Indy. How do you have two weeks to prepare on not attack their main weakness 24 carries was not enough. Had they run the ball 35-40 times we'd have seen the Colts at 2-3...they were ripe for the picken. I just dealt Addai prior to this weekend and own not a one Colts player in 6 leagues...just the way I like it. Dallas Clark is the only one I'd go after that wouldn't cost you the house...although he'll cost you far more than he should.

Jags ~ Hmmmmm....what to think of this team? Coming off a huge W against the Colts many called for a let down here...nice road W. I think MSW is a nice buy low if you can grab him....team has to be gaining confidence and it should only help all offensive players. If Mike Thomas is still out there make a pitch for him...

Texans ~ Overrated club here....huge offensive weapons but this team doesn't "know how to win". They'll be there at the end cause of their O but not so sure they're playoff bound just yet....I know it's tough to think about even selling Foster or Schaub but you should be able to get a King's Ransom for either right now. I honestly think that Schaub is more valuable heading forward as this Houston team will more than likely need to pass, pass, pass to stay in games down the road....their D is horrid!!!!

Titans ~ WOW...impressive W or just another poor game by Wade + Homo??? I'll go with both....Young has matured well and manags games very good to give them a chance to win...couple that with one of the best backs in the game and you've got a team that should battle week in week out. Coaching here is as good as it gets IMO and the D stepped up today and knocked off the bye week fresh chumps from Dallas. Grab Kenny Britt if he is still available...kid can play and he's getting his chance to shine.

 

[Judge Smails]

that even studs like Peyton Manning aren't automatic. 300 yards and 3 TD's every game, and then today he was absolutely horrific - could have thrown better lefthanded. More balls hit shoes than hands - it was that bad..

 

[Northbound Train]

Bungles ~ JOke of a team....don't bet on this club and sell and Bengals that you can get value for. Ced Ben is 3 yards and a cloud of dust

I agree the Bengals are frauds but Benson went for 144 today. He's not the problem. The problem is their defense lacks playmakers and today Palmer killed them with costly mistakes. But I think the biggest issue on this team is an over-rated defense.

First big game for Ced Ben this year I think...too many ego's to feed, a sub-par coach and a granny throwing QB spells doom + gloom IMO...sure they'll win some games but I see 8-8 or at best 9-7....don't like anybody on this team FF wise.....sell Benson if you can get some value after today's game....look at his ypc prior to today. This is your ONE chance to sell him for some decent value...he couldn't have set it up any better

I'm not a Benson owner but I don't believe he's the problem. Again, I think the primary issue with this team is an over-rated defense devoid of playmakers.

While I agree that Ced Ben may not be the real problem from an NFL standpoint....I do think he is a FF liability going forward. This thread's intention is to incorporate what we learned from an actual standpoint as well as the implications on FF....maybe I didn't title it correctly but that's where my mind was. Love the feedback here, keep bringing it.

 

[brednbuddah]

Ahhhhh, the Eagles.....Kolb to Celek is back.

It's incredible how much Celek's stock will rise and fall depending on who is under center.

 

[timschochet]

I don't know what the Bengals' problem is, but here's what I DO know- I have started Ochocinco every week and other than week 1 it's been an utter disaster. He's on my bench permanently. I may just release him. He's worthless.

 

[timschochet]

Ochocinco since week 1:

4 catches for 44 yards

4 for 34

3 for 59

3 for 20

No touchdowns. He has one TD all year. Yet nearly every week, Footballguys ranks him in the top 20 of WRs, sometimes in the top 10, and I buy into it. No more.

 

[basher]

AFC >>>>>> NFC

NFC: The Giants and Falcons seem to be the only squads that look quality. The Bears are winning but it isn't pretty.

AFC: Steelers, Ravens, and Jets seem to be the class of the NFL.

There has been a LOT of sloppy football and a lot of injuries overall in the NFL this season.

 

[Voice Of Reason]

As a Saints homer, I've learned that seemingly the entire NFC sucks.

The Saints have played badly for most of every game, yet were an extra point range FG from being 4-0 and a chip shot away from OT vs Arizona.

Based on what I've seen, although lacking a UFL quality offensive line, Chicago is the best team in the NFC. However, after the Moss trade I think Minnesota is actually the best team.

And Atlanta is overrated. Played nearly as well as they could vs the Saints, not a quality team right now, and still should have lost. Mostly due to their style, an offense based primarily on power running is at a technical disadvantage in today's NFL.

 

[davearm]

Titans ~ WOW...impressive W or just another poor game by Wade + Homo???

All that quality analysis and then you go and drop the H-bomb.

I own Benson in one league (3rd rounder); I wish all my non-PPR RB2s were this consistent:11.47.821.06.016.3He'll be top 15 after this week. Seems really odd saying he is a FF liability going forward. What does that mean?I couldn't care less how he gets it done; he gets his every week. Nobody drafted him to carry a team. He'll never goose egg you, always gets tons of touches, and IMO Scott is no threat this season.

 

[OMG! Ponies!]

Colts ~ Let's start with Manning and company. This team does not impress me whatsover. If not for D.Bowe blowing a gift wrapped TD today these Colts may be 2-3.

Dallas Clark is the only one I'd go after that wouldn't cost you the house...although he'll cost you far more than he should.

you can't pin the game plan on Haley or Weis. they don't have the option at QB to attack deep against anyone. doesn't matter if the Colts' weakness is safety play. cassel is just awful. this is the first game he's cost us a win, but it won't be the last.

 

[Northbound Train]

AFC WEST

Chiefs ~ Gotta be this years biggest surprise 4-5 games in. They held a pretty good Manning lead O to 19 points and only 1 TD...if not for a D.Bowe meltdown on B2B plays we may be talking bout the 4-0 Chiefs....BUT, I'll pin that loss on the offensive game plan Haley put out!!! Sure this team is making strides but how the #### do you come out after two weeks and not attack, attack, attack the leagues most vulnerable run D....what a joke that Charles + Jones only got 24 carries Jones goes from semi-stud RB to also-ran....nice game-planning Haley The D impressed the #### outta me today with some great red-zone stands. I think Charles is a huge buy "low" if you still have that Owner that is pissed at his sharing of the rock. J.C can walk on water if given the chance

Broncos ~ Just moved to Denver 3 weeks ago....love the love of their club around here....however, run the mofo ball once in a while!!!! Hillis + Mendy just gashed this Ravens run D the L2 weeks and the clown McDaniels thinks he beat them another way I mean this Ravens D is always one of the best but they've shown they're vulnerable to the run the L2 weeks so what does McDummy do, runs the ball 13x COME ON MAN!!!!! Decent club that should contend in a wide open AFC West division...Lloyd is prolly long gone so see if you can target Gafney or Royal as a buy low....prolly not gonna happen but dangle some chum out there and see what you can get

Raiders ~ Not sure what to make of this team....only worst Owner in ball is my own WCF Is it Gradkowski or Campbell, Run DMC or Bush ....either way this is a team on the rise....they'll win some and get drilled other times. I'm curious to see how they share the rock once both Bush + DMC are healthy and together in the backfield. I personally am selling DMC in every league I can....he's oft injured too much for my liking and Bush proved tonight he can be the beast toting the rock. He runs much harder than DMC and for my liking I'll take him ....you still should get some decent value out of DMC at this point. Good thread on buy or hold DMC right here.

http://forums.footballguys.com/forum/index...howtopic=561516

Chargers ~ Can't stand this club!!! Is there a worst Coach out there than Norv? Oh wait, maybe Wade....I mean he is holding this team back so much it's sickening. It's a good thing Smith is so stubborn and can't see what's right in front of him sometimes cause this team could be real, real good.....they blew the L.T years and are now off to another 2-3 start....are you freaken kidding me.....this is like the Tigers keeping Ol Smokechops Leyland around...horrible, horrible Coaches that are inhibiting the progress of what could be above par teams. Rivers is a stud....HOLD....don't see where you can get any FF value on this club at this time. Maybe sell Gates for a Kings Ransom

 

[thayman]

If your fantasy star plays against the Redskins he will be hurt. So far....Vick, McCoy, Andre Johnson, Finely, and now Rodgers.

 

[Northbound Train]

Titans ~ WOW...impressive W or just another poor game by Wade + Homo???

All that quality analysis and then you go and drop the H-bomb.

Did you miss the rest of my quick shots or did you lose your panties at "homo" I'll go with both....Young has matured well and manages games very good to give them a chance to win...couple that with one of the best backs in the game and you've got a team that should battle week in week out. Coaching here is as good as it gets IMO and the D stepped up today and knocked off the bye week fresh chumps from Dallas. Grab Kenny Britt if he is still available...kid can play and he's getting his chance to shine.

It's his nickname isn't it

Cowboys are choked by the insanity of Ilitch keeping Leyland employed......errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Jones >>> Phillips

OK then....I'm hearing ya. Why only 24 carries between the dual threat of Charles/Jones....WTF happened to Jones today? 8 carries after 178 yards the previous 2 games It seems to me Haley + company got "cute" and tried some new things....2 weeks to prepare at that garbage on O? I pin that all on the Coaches....roll Cassell out and let Charles make some plays in space.

 

[Phase of the Game]

Mike McCarthy gets dumber by the week and will never win a Super Bowl.

YOu say he gets it done every week but then post a 7.8 and 6.0 :X I'm not trying to be a smartass here but I don't think he's consistent whatsoever...he's had 2 decent weeks in 5....and coming off his best week at 16.3 is where I think you'll be able to get best trade value if you have the depth to move him....SELL!!!!

 

[BoerumHill]

Guess it depends on how big your league is and how many guppies you play with.

Look around, he's a pretty good option as an RB2.

 

[Northbound Train]

Here's my problem with that....I don't want a "good" option at RB2....maybe WR3 or flex, but certainly not RB2. He has had 2 solid weeks and two DUDS in his L4 games and I see that team as ready to implode....it's only a matter of days before T.O or Ocho create a big rift in the locker room.

 

[Cookiemonster]

Learned that the Chargers would be a contender in the AFC if they didn't have the NFL's WORST special teams... and it's not even close.

 

[BoerumHill]

Last year he played 13 games - had a game was in double figures 10/12 weeks, 8.6 and 7.2 in two others (game he was hurt in he posted 2.2).

He has been the epitome of consistent.

I got CJ3 as my RB1 on that squad - and most guys who own him took him after getting a top 5 stud.

Who went right before him? Matthews, Grant, Greene. Right after him? Charles, Thomas, McCoy, Wells, Addai, Moreno, Stewart, Ronnie Brown.

On a consistency basis, he has outperformed most if not all who were drafted as an RB2.

I realize you are not the type who is ever going to back down, but you are as wrong as the day is long on this one point.

 

[ponchsox]

I learned 17 roster spots isn't enough with all of the injuries this year.

Listen, I'm not hear to get in a pissing match about who's right/wrong....everybody is entitled to their own opinion.I don't want Ced Ben as my RB2 whatsoever moving forward....I don't give a rat's ### about last year....I'm looking at this year, his team, his situation and looking forward....he may be a decent RB2 for you but he's not for me.....to each his own. I'd sell him if I owned him but I had no interest in him in the 6 leagues I'm in.

The Bungles were the most overrated/overhyped team in the pre-season and now we're seeing why.....can run tha ball consistently, have two primadonnas out wide and a QB that has a noodle arm...guess ehat, spells disaster for Ced Ben IMO!!!!! Is that a blog

Yeah, you are right. That prima donna TO is really holding Cincy back with his 31 catches, 476 yards and 2 TDs thru 5 games.

The Bungles were the most overrated/overhyped team in the pre-season and now we're seeing why.....can run tha ball consistently, have two primadonnas out wide and a QB that has a noodle arm...guess ehat, spells disaster for Ced Ben IMO!!!!! Is that a blog

I don't recall having any horse in this race. This is the trash we don't need in the SP.

lol at saying this is progressing poorly for benson. palmer being a huge liability is good for benson. hes gonna get 25 carries a game until he gets hurt. just make sure you have bernard on your bench and your ff team will have nice production the rest of the way.

and for the record, i have benson on 0 of my teams and even traded him for mccoy in the preseason.

Titans ~ WOW...impressive W or just another poor game by Wade + Homo???

All that quality analysis and then you go and drop the H-bomb.

I completely agree here. Was enjoying all the quality analysis until that. Now, I just lost respect for the OP. Too bad really. Liked what he was doing in here up until that point. And to the comment that it's his nickname? Ummm. There are a lot of people out there with distasteful and offensive nicknames. That doesn't mean you have to use them. That's just bad judgment.

not sure I get the hate for Benson. I traded him basically straight up for Charles before today's games and Im starting to regret it.

Super Bowl champs can't beat a rookie undrafted free agent QB in his first career NFL start.

The Detroit Lions win a game by a score of 44-6. Let that sink in... Lions... win... 44-6.

I've learned nothing today. I don't know anything. I give up.

I'm going to bed.

Learned that the Chargers would be a contender in the AFC if they didn't have the NFL's WORST special teams... and it's not even close.

You didn't happen to catch the Monday night game last week, did you?
