Daniel Carlson. He has better season-long numbers than Blankenship, has had his bye, has only one potential bad weather game the remainder of the year (all but one of his remaining games are indoors) and in fact he is at home for weeks 14, 15 and 16 (more than a bit unusual).
I don't understand the love for Blankenship. He had a hot start but so what. Is it the glasses?
People love the Rec Specs! Looks like Wild Thing our there. Yeah, I don’t get it either. I mean, I get that he’s on a team with a good D that struggles on offense in the red zone. But a lot of kickers fit that profile. He had a hot start when Indy had a string of great matchups. He now has dicey matchups from here through the playoffs. He’s fine, but I wouldn’t put him in the top tier.
Leaning Sanders over Blank, Money, and Carlson in week 11. Weather nice in Denver it appears 46 degrees and 5-6 mph winds.
My only hesitation is can Tua move the ball downfield consistently? I might be in the market for a different kicker after this week depending on Tua. Bass is on our waivers but his playoff schedule is el stinko. Buffalo plays NE and someone else, in Buffalo and New England on Dec. 20th and Dec. 28th. No thanks. Buffalo is subhuman cold on the 28th. NE? It'll probably snow or rain depending on the temperature. Forget that idea. Bass would have been a great pickup for these past four weeks, but he's best left to waiver wires, IMHO.
Good point. I’ve thought about Bass myself and was really frustrated I didn’t pick him up last week.
Great insight here. I’m looking to possibly move on from Gonzo this week as he’s a bit too up and down. And the Cards are a little too efficient in the red zone. Bass is very tempting. Fits the profile you’re looking for: Rocket leg, potent offense, but can’t run the ball so inefficient in red zone. But as you pointed out, the weather is just too much to ignore. Agree he’s a stay away. Leaning towards getting on the Sanders train, but I share your concerns about Tua. As a bitter Parker owner I wish Fitz was still back there. Even though the Phins are now dropping winnable games when they could be in the hunt, unfortunately it looks like Tua is here to stay.
I am doing the same thing. Hate to drop Tucker (and his schedule) before the playoffs, but there’s too much uncertainty about this game, so I need to prepare replacements for Ben, Steelers D, and Tucker. I simply don’t have room on my roster for 2 kickers, so I am leaning Myers or McManus. Slye, Carlson, Succop are already taken.
That smarts. What'd he have, like around 23 points on five field goals or something like it?I picked up Carlson and dropped Koo. Bad idea.
Koo has been phenomenal but I can see how the GB & DET games would make a manager second guess. Cannot believe what a turd the Raiders laid against such a weak team.
I'm rostering Tucker and considering picking up Succop....BoerumHill said:
I made a move to pick up Succup for the reasons you listed above. Great defense, so should be playing with a lead and not discouraged to kick field goals, good offense, great gamescripts and game environments. You never know how kicker production will unfold, but I like all of these factors.
