GDT: Non-Panthers NFL Discussion (2017 and beyond)

[RodTheBawd]

Is this where we can post our FF brags (and beats)? Like, for instance, Sunday morning me dropping Atlanta DST for LAR and starting Stafford over PRivs?

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

I try to build a deep roster of basically solid guys, rather than looking for studs, so I never get to brag about anyone blowing up in a given week. For instance, in both of my non-HF leagues (ESPN non-PPR), I'm currently in the upper 90s with one guy left to play. That should put me somewhere around 105 after the MNF games, yet I don't have a single guy who went for 20 points on either team. More often than not, it seems to work out that way.

P.S. Please don't check my HF score. It did not work out that way this week.

 

[RodTheBawd]

Always hard to compare across leagues, particularly with custom scoring. This is our 9th year, so we've made some tweaks over the years. It's a half PPR league, and I'd say average score is ~90 each week. I put up 140 this week thanks to Stafford, Tyreek Hill, Shady, and LAR. I tend to draft as high end as possible, one or two 8-10 pt/wk plugs, then boom or bust to fill my bench. I never draft a DST and do matchup pickups.

But uhh... back on topic... Yeah... the Bears, almost pulled one out there.

I'm still not 100% used to Los Angeles having a team again, much less two now.

It would seem Chicago fans don't like Mike Glennon. At least the money the Bears gave him will help Glennon become an investor in the Canes so thats cool.

It'll be hilarious when the State guy gets replaced by the Carolina guy in about two weeks.

 

[HisIceness]

Just wait until they pick a Duke guy who replaces both of them. RIP World.

What the hell are the Rams wearing?

 

[A Star is Burns]

Quite an interesting football game against all odds.

 

[HisIceness]

Yeah I have to admit this is quite an entertaining game for a Thursday night.

I'm trying to think of something the Rams have NOT done to ruin their brand.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

IMO they helped their brand a good bit last night...

That was a wildly entertaining game and I kinda like Goff. Doesn't seem to know how to stand in the pocket yet, but the kid can sling the ball, and has the weapons to show for it now.

Everything about that game said it would be a 17-7 snoozefest, turned out to be the most entertaining game of the year so far.

If they'd have worn blue pants the yellow jerseys wouldn't have been so bad. The numbers could use an outline too so they pop a little better. I thought the niners looked worse

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Holy ****, the Santa Clara 49ers are a mess. There were more people at the Chargers game.

Hilariously, the attendance record shows attendance at that game as 100%.

I have no doubt that they've sold near 100% of their tickets to a bunch of dude bro sales guys at silly valley companies, and no way those guys are gonna drag prospects down 101 on any day ending in Y to watch that dog **** franchise. Might as well just punch your sales prospect in the face.

The Thursday night jerseys are all "color rush". So all one color. It's dumb as ****, blame Nike.

Don't worry, the Chargers will be slinking back to San Diego soon enough. Or maybe going to St. Louis. Or literally anywhere else.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Quebec City Chargers!!!!!

They'll decide to be the team to move to London full time, but in a terrible mix up, they'll accidentally move to London, Ontario.

Which in the end would still be a better move than to England.

Seems like that stadium has been nothing but a bust. From the location, to the design (more fans sit facing the sun as it blinds them than not), to it not being 'fan-friendly' whatever that means. Oh well, in 25 years it will be obsolete anyways and it will be time for a new one.

 

[Unsustainable]

Lions just got ****ed

 

[RodTheBawd]

Bad reversal followed by a ****** rule.
