Who Are You Pushing the Panic Button On? (1 Viewer)

Bowe and C.j spiller

Yeah man got the same problem. I thought I got a steal getting Spiller with the 10th pick. And for some reason I thought Bowe would be Crabtree 2.0

Only first week but not happy with those two clowns...

Yeah for sure. Really thought bowe would have a good week

Bowe was disappointment. Smith attempted very few passes over 10 yard in the games. Granted he didn't have to but it didn't help alleviate concerns that Smith wouldn't get Bowe the ball deep.

 

[just_want_2_win]

Not sure if it's "panic" mode, but slightly concerned about CJ Spiller and Ahmad Bradshaw.

Spiller, according to RW, might have taken a hit to the head so he might have an excuse. Fred Jax showed he isn't as washed up as some have said.

As for AB, not panicing yet. He's working himself into shape and into the offense...Ballard's 13-63 wasn't distinguishing.

If either continues to underwhelm into weeks 2 and 3, though....oh boy.

That can't really surprise anyone can it? It's not like Alex Smith is new to the league.

Bowe panic is completely knee jerk. KC had the game in total control and there was no need to pass downfield. KC doesn't play Jack every week.

 

[We Tigers]

I don't think you really need to worry about Bowe. That game was basically over before halftime. KC more or less ran out the clock, even in the passing game, the rest of the way.

Agreed, seems silly. I actually am optimistic about the Chiefs offense.

 

[steelerfan1]

a bit of panic watching trent richardson. going in this year thought for sure he would be an every down guy. seemed to get pulled on many 3rd downs and was an afterthought in passing game. granted dolphins d looked great, but not liking how he was used today.

 

[Slider]

Seems silly to me to panic in week 1 unless it's an injury.

Josh Gordon coming back in two weeks should loosen things up.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

It's a bit early to be pushing the panic button, but I'm seriously considering pushing it on Cecil Shorts. Blaine Gabbert is spectacularly bad.

Who are you considering pushing the panic button on?

He didn't have a catch until half way through the 4th. He didn't do anything last year until garbage time either. He has fluke written all over him.

Yeah, I'm sure it has nothing to do with Gabbert, lol.

 

[hounddog]

Had high hopes for Sudfeld even when Gronk returned, now think there are many better options on waivers

 

[QuizGuy66]

Panic might be overstating but I think that Redman might be edging out Ivory as dude I'm going to use for my first cut this week.

-QG

 

[rickyg]

Yeah honestly the only guy I would full fledge panic with is Ridley. The Patriots DGAF what Ridley did last year, they will bench him with zero hesitation for Vereen.

Vereen top 15 RB ROS, Ridley going to end up on waiver wires.

You guys are nuts. Perhaps it will be more of an RBBC than people think but Ridley will still have penty of value. and Im a vereen owner...

The pats are very short on playmakers this season, you think they are going to bench their bruising RB?

This is truly a week one over reaction if I've ever seen one.

 

[QuizGuy66]

-QG

LOL or not as I don't actually own him on that team.

I think as an R Bush owner I'm not so much panicked as chagrined that Bell really is going to get all of the short yardage work.

-QG

 

[Ace zero1]

Made me feel a lot better about Bowe

Who did you think his quarterback was? I would start him next week if I were you. lol

umm chad henne

 

[Ilov80s]

Peyton manning

I agree. I projected him for 35 TDs and he already has 7. That means he is only likely to throw 28 more. That's less than 2 a game from here on out which kind of sucks.

 

[Fantasy Benchwarmer]

Bowe will be fine. KC will be behind plenty this season and Smith will have to throw the deep ball or ride the bench.

I don't have him, was just pointing out how moronic your statement was. lol

 

[dickey moe]

I think people haven't learned their lesson with the Pats yet. Last year Vereen had a big game with 130/1 and the next game he got 3 touches while Ridley had 20.

The Pats change their gameplan and their doghouse every week. I wouldn't any more surprised if next week was all Ridley and Sudfeld while Edelman and Vereen barely see a touch than I would if it played out like today's game again.

What makes Vereen safer IMO is that he's the team's best passing down back by far and when the Pats/brady really needed to go their trusted targets on that final drive it was the Amendola/Vereen show.

The stars have really aligned for Vereen, with Hernandez gone and Ridley's fumblitis today.

 

[teamramrod]

Pettigrew

I thought he would be a good TE flex option in FFPC leagues. Garbage.

Screw Fantasy, try having him on your team in Real Life...

Peace

Good post. Until Gronk comes back Vereen is a solid rb2 with upside of a rb1. He is going to be Brady's second or third favorite target until then plus he will see 10 carries a game

 

[msudaisy26]

Lets try to sum this up

Guys to worry about

Ridley - fumbling and good players behind him

Pettigrew - same as Ridley, that rookie tight in Detroit looked decent today.

Ponder - We already knew that

Steelers - this was horrible

Miller/Thomas - That line is HORRIBLE

Bradshaw - I admit I didn't see the game but the stats favor Ballard

Titans not named Chris Johnson - Locker is horrible and will bring everyone but Johnson down with him

Buy Low

Bowe - The Jags put up no fight at all, he will still put up wr2 numbers

MJD/Shorts - Gabbert is very close to being out of the league, those guys will put up numbers when Henne starts and Blackmon comes back

Wallace - They can't run, he is going to get some catches

Sudfeld - He is still going to get a lot of looks, and we still don't know when Gronk comes back

Hilton - He will be fine, I hope owners in my league panic and sell him

I think you guys are forgetting that the Pats only have 4 days off before locking horns with the Jets in another divisional game on Thursday night. So while BB was probably pissed about the fumble, the way the 2nd half played out (close/playing from behind), coupled with the fact they play again in 5 days were probably equal part reasoning for Ridley's lack of usage late.

"BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ" Wrong answer

I doubt this had anything to do with it, certainly not equal reasoning. Belichick is famous for pulling guys who can't hold onto the ball, he's done it as long as he's coached. It is a message sent to players, not just that particular player. That said Ridley is still going to get a lot of looks, the Patriots spread the wealth and Blount is not the answer as an alternative to Ridley IMO. Vereen is gonna get his regardless, I'm not sure Vereen impacts Ridley as much as people think.

For the record, I have Vereen.

 

[Ace zero1]

No one worried about roddy roddy white?

No.

Ridley fumbled. Vereen came in and played well. Bellichek road the hot hand. Pretty standard.

I'd worry if we're having the same discussion in three weeks.

 

[Zow]

No one worried about roddy roddy white?

He almost didn't suit up. Why would this change your approach to him when we knew he was hurt early in the week?

 

[gsmayes]

I regret drafting Lance Moore and Vincent Brown back-to-back over Boldin, who went the next pick.

 

[AldoNova]

Peyton. He did nothing on Sunday.

 

[Zow]

Add Vernon Davis to that list, who I didn't even have in my top 5.

 

[TwinTurbo]

James Jones. Unlike Cecil Shorts, he has no excuse.

 

[Ghost Rider]

No one. No need to panic after Week 1.

 

[Kilgore]

Two words: MJD. Toast.

 

[rickyg]

Bowe will be fine. KC will be behind plenty this season and Smith will have to throw the deep ball or ride the bench.

I think bowe will e fine but not for the reasons you stayed. I think KCs defense is vastly improved and could easily be a top 10 unit this year if not top 5.

 

[Mister CIA]

Indy Defense.

 

[buddahj]

No one. No need to panic after Week 1.

+1

 

[AZhardballz]

Certainly thought Gore would break 20 yards on the day.....guess not.

 

[rdrouyn]

What is up with Kenny Britt? Is he hurt or is it just Locker?

 

[Dr Oadi]

Calvin Johnson is a bum. Dropping him!

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Tennessee passing, be it QB, WR, TE, it ain't good.

Mike Wallace...gonna be a long season for owners. I want to hear him whine after the team wins 23-10, I dare him to.

Lamar Miller/Miami ground game...not looking promising and neither is the Miami OL.

 

[zandbak]

Peyton. He did nothing on Sunday.

This joke has been made multiple times. It's not funny or original in any way.

 

[buddahj]

Certainly thought Gore would break 20 yards on the day.....guess not.

He's up to 60 total yds & 1 TD

 

[AZhardballz]

Yup..Gore salvaged the day quickly. Just a semi-panic now.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Peyton Manning

 

[prgromek]

James Jones...ruh roh

 

[MoveToSkypager]

I was going to say Lamar Miller or the Dolphins OL, but I'll just go ahead and say the entire city of Miami. I'd sell that entire thing if I had a buyer.
