Well have been given a B+ for mine which is all great until my RB1 and WR1 hit the IR by week 5.

First year haven't carried Herbert on my roster and went for Mahomes instead so that's doomed him. Bills and Ravens fans can thank me any time.

I got a B-. Was surprised that J-Herb went undrafted actually, especially when I've ended up with Richardson and Love.

I don't think you can complain too much with Mahomes and CMC but I thank you for your service re. the former regardless.

Aye though Craig has just given me a good trade offer on that front. Problem I found with Herbert is the Chargers kept bloody running it in the red zone and also his best receivers like Allen have moved on.

I'll be hitting up that waiver wire first thing Tuesday morning.

Trade for Tyreek in fantasy and he goes and gets arrested on game day. Standard.

Early glimpse of us it’s a good defense and nothing happening offensively. Same as the last few years.

 

[kieran_vale]

No way we actually fucking WON!! Probably won’t get many more days like it this season but we played really well there. Defense was brilliant and got the ground game going.

 

[pride_of_notts]

Sloppy first half especially with the penalties but improved it second half generally Allen played really well and took what the defence gave him I can see this team being coached up as the season goes especially with so many young players/ new pieces

Always nice to win the Thursday game coz you can just chill and proper enjoy Redzone on the Sunday then.

Was proper enjoying watching us beat up Miami too (apart from being at work and having to sneakily watch it on me phone) until Tua tried to kill Damar Hamlin again.

He's going to have a lot of people telling him to walk away now. Manti Te'o talking about it on some show I didn't get the name of was powerful and if his family are all in his ear like that he might just call it a day.

CMC going on IR. Brings to mind the old proverb:

'the best time to pick Jordan Mason up was before the first game of the season. The second best time was before last Wednesday when the Buddhalo Bills nabbed him'

Thanks

Was really impressed with how we set up Tyreek and Waddle was non factors which worried me going into the year having more or less a brand new secondary and yeah I will enjoy redzone also not having to worry about the Bills

I’m just at the point now in fantasy I’m going to spite draft players in future so bad things will happen to their team. In other words I’m just drafting Jets players.

Frustrating loss for the Pats. The game was there to be won but we are so limited in the passing game at the moment. Even then we don’t get a FG blocked and we may well have beaten a good Seattle team. Not the end of the world but just could have been so much better.

 

[Craig]

Fuck the Bengals!!

 

[pride_of_notts]

Really impressed last night with us Allen probably had his best game for us especially the first half masterclass and for me as much as I loved Diggs trading him away was the best thing for the team as there have been the case where Allen had been force feeding him the ball resulting in picks also have to say I am really impressed with the start of our secondary especially given the starters we have turned over in the off season Benford especially has stepped into the elite category

 

[kieran_vale]

Looks like the Bills all being equal should win the division at a canter. I suspect the Jets are frauds and will be exposed as such against any good team and Miami I’m getting the feeling they might not even finish above us with their QB issues now.

Said it before but I would suggest there needs to be a rethink on when people call someone coming out the draft as “generational” or “can’t miss” as once again Trevor Lawrence is shown to be no better than ok at best. Like this current draft people labelled Caleb with that and frankly once all is said and done the only two who I am confident will be applied to is MHJ and Alt.

 

[pride_of_notts]

Don't know if it will be at a canter next two weeks especially could be interesting road games at Ravens and Texans will be big tests on the Dolphins I suspect your correct dependent how long Tua is unavailable for and the Jets I can;t see them being that relevent as they lean way to much on the defence.

 

[kieran_vale]

This Pats offense is harder to watch by the week. The line can’t block anything. Just feels such an effort to even so much as move the chains.

 

[pride_of_notts]

Think the Pats will switch to Maye might be the case let him learn even if he makes mistakes he would probably be better where he can use his legs especially given the state of the Pats O-Line

On the Chiefs can't think of a worse play than Mahomes throwing the interception ans then he injures his no1 receiver in the same play.

 

[kieran_vale]

I just don’t think with this OL you can put Maye out there. Run the risk of him ending up being another David Carr. At some point it’ll happen as Brissett can’t keep taking these hits, maybe around the London game with the Jags. Something will have to give. If there is a bright spot on Defense I think by the years end Christian Gonzalez will be in the conversation of best corner in the league.

 

[kieran_vale]

And so another season descends into tankathon mode. This time I think it’s quite possible we get the #1 pick. If we can’t beat that abysmal Miami team down to their fourth string QB who can we beat? Better hope Milroe, Beck or Sanders shoot up teams draft boards to trade back…

Interesting game at Tottenham today. Vikings did everything in their power to hand that game to the Jets but Rodgers I just don’t think he has it any more at the elite level.

Shall we just give Dave the fantos Lombardi trophy now?

Bloke's already 10-0, picked up Taysom Hill TODAY and he's scored 33 points for him.

There's no need for that really is there.

 

[pride_of_notts]

Division title all wrapped up now think that is the earliest since the Colts in 09 always entertaining having snow games especially as there was literally no point in passing the ball given the little traction available

Those two and a half games I had CMC were nice while they lasted at least *sigh*

Bills now halfway to our consecutive divisions record, hopefully they can go on and make it count in the playoffs. Will take solace this season we were expected to suck and be in a rebuild but at least we have our QB for the future. The Jets were meant to be all-in and have got the same record as us and as for the QB…

And the talking heads had the fish and JETES 1 and 2 in the division on the playoffs I am hopefull as long as we can keep the team healthy especially the defence which has tended to die for the playoffs especially as the Chiefs have looked really vulnerable this year

On Maye he has impressed me from what I have seen it will be interesting to see what the Pats do in the draft especially as they will very likely have a top 5 pick if it was me I would invest in O-line

 

[kieran_vale]

May just be a case of the Bills playing down to their opponents which they’ve done on occasion but that was a lot more competitive as a game than I ever expected it could be. Think Drake continued his development, the throw to Boutte for the opening TD was picture perfect. If we could surround him with just competent players on offense we could go places.

Shame our head coach is scared of his own shadow. Punting near midfield with 8 minutes remaining and down 10 is just cowardly and a sign he was managing defeat than trying to win.

 

[pride_of_notts]

Maye handled himself pretty good I think it is a good reason for Pats to look optimistic going forward but I would agree they need to surround him with more talent whether it be from free agency or the draft personally if I was the pats I would go Left Tackle with there first rounder as free agency they tend not to come up and are expensive

On the Bills i thought we was really sloppy on both sides gave away to many stupid penalties plus the issue with our receivers struggle getting separation.
