Joe Burrow Mic'd Up "That's a first down, brother" Obviously selectively edited by NFL, but it speaks to team chemistry and how vicious even the most innocuous of hits on the QB really are.

Wow, what a performance! Joe looks to be all the way back to health, and his mobility and ability to go under center have opened up the offensive playbook. :thumbup:

:bag: This is me, but with Sam Howell. I took a flier on Howell with my last draft pick to cover Burrow's calf injury, and wisely started Howell in week one. In following weeks, I was way too quick to trust Burrow, and should have been starting Howell all along. Glad Bengals are on their bye...

I started Howell instead of Burrow this week. :bag: Stafford, who I liked a bit better than Howell, was on the waiver wire, but I had already started Howell over Burrow in Week 1 expecting a slow start from Joe. I then started Burrow in Week 2, only to see him again outscored by Howell. How...

:kicksrock: Dadgummit. Lions lost the OT coin flip, and never touched the ball on offense again. I thought that rule was changed after the Bills / Chiefs controversy a couple of years ago, but Googled it today to see that only applies in the playoffs.

Buffalo seems appealing, but I keep going back to Detroit. Lions showed a good pass rush against the Chiefs, and now have had a long week to prepare for the Seahawks, who may be missing both offensive tackles.

Help me Pittman, you're my only hope! :scared:

Losing my MVP Goedert is a real blow, but Dawson Knox stepped up. I figured I was a goner when Mixon left early, but then Evan McPherson comes out of nowhere with a huge game. On to Thanksgiving Week!

I've been out of town, and unable to keep up with the pace of posting here in the thread. Just had to drop in and note that three of my five RBs were just traded last week. RB Joe Mixon - $30 RB Aaron Jones - $27 RB Chase Edmonds - $14 RB Nyheim Hines - $13 RB Jeff Wilson - $3 I'm ecstatic...

Feel quite fortunate that the Taysom cheat code has covered my boneheaded same-bye week TE pairing of Goedert and Knox. Hell, I feel lucky to have dodged a couple of close calls with the Turk, given the state of my RB room. I imagine many contestants took a shot on Chase Edmonds, but $13 Nyheim...

Woo Hoo! Early Wilson TD and the late Pick Six boosts me over the cut line. :excited: On to Week 5. What a sweat.

:scared: Looks grim for me with just 131.90 ( 4.15 below the tentative cut line). Only have Jeff Wilson -8.5 and the 49ers D -9 left to take the field. Looks like fading Dameon Pierce bit me in the butt after all!

Thanks for the feedback, especially your thoughts, @TheWinz I went out drinking on Wed night, then came home, read your posts, and continued to frantically tinker with my rooster right up to the contest deadline. Basically, I resolved my previous questions about the Patriots RBs and Dameon...

Been sitting on this one for 24 hours, but I have two questions Your team has been successfully entered. QB - Jalen Hurts - PHI/7 - $19 QB - Davis Mills - HOU/6 - $7 RB - Saquon Barkley - NYG/9 - $26 RB - Damien Harris - NE/10 - $16 RB - Rhamondre Stevenson - NE/10 - $15 RB - Dameon Pierce -...

Oh no!  I'm out!   https://footballguys.com/contests/subscribers/2021/entry/102413 Losing in week 12 ties my record for longevity in the FBG Subscriber Contest.  I was bounced in Week 12 previously in 2014 and 2006.  My 2006 team included Brett Favre, and was built around Steve Smith, Warrick...
