Yeah it’s not great football. But it’s football. Feel free to post about random games in here.

I’ve watched one quarter of the Pats and it’s clear Matt Jones is a bust.

How does dynasty work? You keep your entire team for the most power and the draft pool is rookies?

Wild to imagine JAX nearly took out NE for a trip to the Super Bowl just three years ago.

They didn’t. Quite the opposite.

The first red flag that came up was getting Tebow to be a TE.

That was a big red flag. No reason to waste time with Tim Tebow as a TE, when it was clear that he does not have any experience in that position, much less play it, where they could have find a younger guy who might at least contribute more than Tebow.

This Jaguars organization is one big dumpster fire infected with Lambda Lambda Lambda coronavirus variant, burning out of control.

Yeah you have a draft early and it's like 7 rounds and you get rookies and whatever free agents are out there.

Then right before the season you have to trim rosters and you have a salary cap, so younger players are better than expensive older ones who keep going up in value the longer they are on your team.

My league is superflex though so QB is extremely important because you play two of them.

Fields' rushing makes him more valuable than say Wilson but in real football so far Wilson looks like the real deal.

Some organizations are just poorly run. JAX, CIN, DET, and the NYJ come to mind. JAX and CIN have franchise #1 pick QBs and have made little effort to protect them. Burrow still has the yips and Lawrence will this time next year. At least the NYJ have provided protection to Wilson.

FloridaMan88 · 08-23-2021, 08:38 PM

Lawrence hasn’t proven yet he can rise up and overcome adversity.

When Clemson was challenged against equally talented teams in the CFP against LSU and Ohio State the past two years he played like shit and his teams were blown out.

Mahomes was used to playing for mediocre Texas Tech teams where he knew he’d have to put his less talented teams on his back to be competitive.

Trevor Lawrence looks like the offspring of Steffi Graf if she got knocked up by an Easter Island statue

NYJ also has a better competent (on paper) coaching staff than JAX.

I'd take Saleh over Meyer any day.

Megatron96 · 08-23-2021, 08:42 PM

well at least he didn't call one of those stupid skinny corner routes.

I do all kinds of fantasy leagues, but have never had the opportunity to get into a dynasty league. I might have to start my own.

And yea I’m drafting Fields as my QB2 in a lot of my mocks for that reason. The QB’s that can run are always better in fantasy early on, and can potentially be steals, or even league winners.

Agreed. One earned his way to the HC job. One got it because he coached at elite schools who could recruit the top talent in the country. He used that to dominate lesser talented schools making him look better than he really is.

Kevin White is really bad. Hard to believe this guy once went #7 overall.

Megatron96 · 08-23-2021, 09:05 PM

whoa. Suddenly we have something of a game here.
