Yep, I have both Megaquit and Jennings playing today on my money team.

So you are the jinx that ruined these 2 guys this year. Hey, thanks for freeing them.
Sonofa. I'd still make that deal today, I just could have received a bit more than Berrian as a throw in.:shakesfist:And now Warner is hurt. I've also touched Ronnie, Turner, Cribbs, and Big Ben. I acquired Ocho three weeks ago and he has done nothing since. All your failures are belong to me.FavreCo said:So you are the jinx that ruined these 2 guys this year. Hey, thanks for freeing them.

Maybe he'll post his roster so we know who to trade away or stay away from before it's too late!'Knobs' = fantasyStay clear of my guys.

Nice post on the TD...great pattern just behind the defender and Rodgers put it right on the money.Then Jennings showed his ability after the catch with some nice moves to get the TD.Great game for him...after I traded him too. Though...even had I not traded him, I would have had him on my bench.

That's a bad trade. Putting your faith in one guy like that when you have 2 that could explode at any time....bad move.Sonofa.

It was nice to see the Pack actually use him on patterns other then fly routes and deep posts. He is a solid YAC receiver MM just needed to pull his head out of his sphincter and realize that.

Where is HK?
I'd rather have Fitz than Calvin or Jennings. My wr's are now AJ, Fitz, Ocho. I could afford to overpay...in other words, I'm fine. My main threat has Warner as his qb so having his qb's main target is nice as well.That's a bad trade.

glad to be back working together buddy!Just reacquired Jennings after trading him in the offseason. You can expect Jennings to have bump in his numbers going forward because he and i have a wonderful working relationship.

The problem is that production has not been the case most weeks. People can't be fooled into thinking Jennings had a big day because the Packers did anything differently with him this game. They used him the same as they always have, and that is not good news for Jennings owners.I'll take 7 targets every week with that production from here on please and thank you.H.K. said:Week 11 Targets

You need to explain the bold. Correct me if I'm wrong, but using him as they always have is the reason why he was going so high in drafts. The guy is very good after the catch and has done very well on quick slants and the like.The problem is that production has not been the case most weeks.

Targets are opportunities. He isn't getting them like he was last year.Last season he averaged 8.75 targets a game. This year it is down to 7.4/game, but that number with a healthy Jordy Nelson is under 6.3. That's almost two and a half fewer passes to him a game.You need to explain the bold.

By comparison Driver averaged 7.2 targets/game last year and he is on the same pace this season.
People may be happy with the result this week, but there is no reason to expect the output to remain high. He just doesn't get the chances like he did in 2008.

Jennings is so good that he is invisible to the defense. (unfortunately for the most part this season, invisible to Rodgers also). Take a look ath the clip on NFL.com. At the 5 second mark, clearly Jennings cloaks himself and the defender runs right past him. A replay also shows this remarkable feat at the 25 second mark. #38 has his sights on jacking up Jennings only to see Jennings disappear before his eyes as he clobbers his own temmate, #25.http://www.nfl.com/videos/green-bay-packer...nnings-64-yd-TD
Jennings. The invisible man.

On paper he should have another big game. However, the action of all of us putting him back into our line-ups will cause him to get 2 catches for 20 yards or something similar. Knowing my luck I'll bench someone who puts up 20 points while that is going on.

I'm confused. Earlier you implied that Havner was superior to Jennings (because he has scored more TDs this year). Doesn't that apply anymore? Who am I supposed to own now? Finley? Driver? Havner?Targets are opportunities. He isn't getting them like he was last year.Last season he averaged 8.75 targets a game.

Oh man you're funny. Around here we know you are the Packer basher and even when they do well you find faults.Targets for Jennings and Driver. They are close except yesterday Jennings did something with the catches.

Also, you cherry picked the sample so Jennings' highest numbers are from a stretch of the games Nelson was out (12 & 10)...then he returned it was more of the same (7 & 7).
The data tells the truth.

Who do you think is the best receiver on Green Bay?

You were pretty clear that Jennings sucked because Havner had more TDs.....Since that was such a stupid argument to make, the only conclusion one could draw (since you felt obligated to use flawed logic) was that you thought Havner was better than Jennings.

Jennings. The invisible man.
I must simply have a "cloaking" WR!
Wonder what it's going to cost me?
I still expect him to get his typical 8ish passes thrown his way. I'll let you guys figure out how many he catches, or what he does with them.

He's ranked 13th overall in my league.....2 points behind S Rice. He's not having a great year but he's still solid in my league. He's not having a consistent year at all though which is probably what really is putting guys out.
You obviously have to start him vs DET. Dont overthink things. GB has a ton of weapons (even their WR3 & WR4 are decent starts) so Jennings may have a bad game but Id take my chances.
I agree with you totally! He's just not consistent this year and we don't now what Jennings is going to give us from week to week.

The opportunities that Jennings gets (read: catchable passes) he does good things with. But for whatever reason, he seems to be Rodgers' 5th read. I hate Rodgers and that dbag coordinator for screwing up a good thing (and my fantasy team). That is all.

Rodgers and D-Bag coordinator are running a top offense in the NFL. Jennings is being taken out by teams with their coverage right now. He has looked better lately as team went to a short passing game that they have been known as for years.
