Yet he is STILL limited in practice today, and didn't practice at all earlier in the week.
But we don’t know. They had a closed facility. They said he wouldn’t have practiced on Thursday.
And the game he had a 0 was the game Julio left injured.
Just stop. No he didn’t compile in garbage time. He had 1 catch during garbage time. And sure he had 0 in the second half against GB after Julio left...but also 0 the first half with Julio playing. So don’t lecture me or anyone else about the details beyond the game log when you’ve been a walking géiser of misinformation your past few posts if I’m being generous. Bottom line, he’s played 2 games in his career without Julio starting. It’s a meaningless sample size.
guess we define garbage time differently.
I’m not lecturing anyone, nor did I say anything that's “disinformation”.
3, since Julio didn’t actually “play” 2 weeks ago; he was a decoy. But I’m sure you’re right....oh, wait. Look at what experts are saying on Rotoworld right now.
No this is not a difference of opinion on garbage time. It’s you being wrong. Atlanta got intercepted in the end zone down by 7 on their second to last possession. Carolina then burned off most of the clock and kicked a fg to go up 10. At that point it became garbage time. This isn’t disputable. And while we’re on the topic of your BS you also said Ridley didn’t put up numbers until after Carolina’s top CB was out during garbage time. I assume you mean Donte Jackson here, who left injured at 1:14 pm Est according to the tweets from the Panthers guys. And the Panthers had the ball first! This would appear to be early on in the Falcons first offensive series that he left.guess we define garbage time differently.
Julio didn’t “play” the 1st half. Clearly you didn’t watch that game.

Ridley performs better when Julio is out there. it’s a fact.

And it’s super weird how he scored TDs every game JJ played but didn’t score when JJ wasn’t playing, huh?
maybe you should write to their editor and accuse them of spreading “disinformation” too.
That statement isn't a fact unless paired with statistics or evidence. For example, if you wrote "Ridley averages 1.3 pts per route run when Julio is on the field, but only 0.5 pts per route run when Julio isn't on the field" that would be a fact. The statement above is an opinion unless supported by something substantive.
Ok, I was being hyperbolic in response to being told I “spread disinformation” l, I admit.

I found the Rotoworld update by googling “Ridley better with Julio”.
Lol saying that you cited the first thing that pops up when you google isn’t exactly a great defense for your argument. I was in Charlotte last weekend. I watched the game. I watched the entirety of the game Monday night too. You said that Julio left the game last week after 1 or 2 plays. It wasn’t last week and it was at halftime not after 1 or 2 plays. You said that Ridley didn’t do much until after the Panthers top corner left during garbage time. Their top corner left in the first quarter and Ridley had 1 catch during garbage time. You said that Julio was a decoy against GB when in fact he led the team in yards and targets prior to leaving. Dispute these facts, or admit you were wrong, or walk away with your tail between your legs. It’s your choice.
I stated an opinion. It’s a discussion forum. It is my opinion from watching the games that Ridley hadn’t been as good without Julio.
You supported it with incorrect statements about things that actually occurred. Which I corrected. I guess we’ll each keep on doing us.I stated an opinion. It’s a discussion forum. It is my opinion from watching the games that Ridley hadn’t been as good without Julio.
You keep on doing you though dude.
You called my opinion “disinformation”. I then found a fantasy football site that said exactly what I’d observed.
Don’t try to hide behind rotoworld. I called you saying Julio was a decoy week 4 misinformation. I called you saying Julio left week 5 after 1 or 2 plays misinformation. I called you saying Ridley didn’t do much until after Carolina’s top corner left and that it was mostly during garbage time misinformation. And I’m correct about all these things. Your opinion that Ridley may be better with Julio on the field is an opinion that hasn’t been supported by anything yet. But it’s an opinion of yours and that’s fine. I disputed the blatant facts you got wrong and provided stats about how Ridley has done so far minus Julio.
No. That was a few weeks back, hence why I said he’s likely not playing a decoy role if he’s active.
Which sounds exactly like what someone who’s playing a decoy role would say.
In game against Packers he left at halftime, but he clearly looked uncomfortable the entire first half. What I took away as more concerning is after the game, the coaches said Julio was only going to be used on set plays, third downs and redzone (ie a situational pitch count). The fact that the coaches gameplanned that is what I took away as most disturbing. Who knows if that might be what happens again.Which sounds exactly like what someone who’s playing a decoy role would say.
lol
again, I hope JJ plays - I am *of the opinion* that Ridley is better for his presence. Good luck Julio owners.
Totally agree. Btw - just a terrible medical decision. They clearly should have sat him.
They very clearly knew their jobs were on the line and were desperate. I understand that, don’t agree but understand. That’s what makes this week all the more vexing to me. The pulling of any kind of injury designation days before the game just doesn’t really make sense. The interim coach isn’t in a desperate situation so I can’t logic that he’s making a desperate decision. So strange.
Parker, Jets...... Tough to benchThis is the second year in a row I've had Julio in my main league. He really has been hit or miss too many times while I've had him. I'm considering running with him this week even though my gut says to see how he does before putting him back in my lineup. My other options are decent (D. Parker, C Lamb, or J. Jefferson) but I feel like his upside is better than them. But I also know his floor is potentially lower because we just don't know. Screw it. Riding the Jones train this weekend.
Completely agree with this.Alex P Keaton said:
Quinn was in an impossible situation. He knows his job is on the line. If he sits Julio and they lose with Julio wanting to play and saying he could have, he gets fired. He plays Julio and he hurts the hammy more and they lose, he gets fired. The only thing saving his job at that point he’s winning that week, and putting Julio out there was his only option if Julio was wanting to play. Rock meet hard place.
I don't know. I have Jefferson and McLaurin (along with Claypool and Fulgham). Right now Jones might be #4 until I see him play a full game.
he’s not just a decoy.
