Week 2 Discussion

[Jfever]

Yeah. Let's give OBJ 9 targets while we try to dink n dunk our way to a loss. Barf.

No love for my boy Breida on here? Solid showing.

Tied for first place and 1-0 in the division after two weeks. I’m pretty pleased with it, considering Travis Frederick is out, rookie LG in Connor Williams and with all of the changes to the passing game, with Witten retiring late in the offseason, etc. It won’t be pretty as far as the passing game but it will only get better and hopefully people will keep sleeping on the Cowboys defense, it’s legit and will get even better when starting safety Xavier Woods comes back and if David Irving and R.Gregory come back.

Giants gameplan: check down to Barkley every other play.

Oh its only gotten us 3 points?

Lets keep doing it.

Cowboys defense is the main reason. 6 sacks, multiple hits on Eli, lockdown coverage on the outside by Byron Jones and Chidobe Awuzie. What else can they do? Not trying to be a a??hole but for real, that’s what happened.

Three players in the NFL history have started the year with back to back 4+ TD passing touchdowns.

...two of them were from this year - Ryan Fitzpatrick & Patrick Mahomes.

This is shaping up to be an odd year.

Who is the 3rd? I know it is not Brady or Manning ... Watson?

Drew Brees.

Oh wow would not have guessed that! Yet not surprised.

[Lotto4Life]

Exactly. Jimmy Graham was the best TE in the league in NO and has barely been average since. Even with Aaron Rodgers he hasn't done much (although I admit it's still very early in the season).

That NO offensive system is extremely favourable for receivers.

Thomas is a very good WR, but pure talent wise, I don't have him up there

The system isnt making Thomas. He's really good on his own.

Yes he's very good on his own, but that's a very favourable system. It can make a great player that much better.

For a minute there I thought I was in the Le'Veon Bell thread

[Lotto4Life]

The Giants are bad

They would have been much better drafting a QB then Barkley. That was a huge mistake. They may not get that chance again any time soon

They've got a pretty good shot at another top 3 pick in the 2019 draft. Would have a legit shot at #1 overall if not for those pesky Bills.

There's no QB this year worth being drafted that high though, but they will be anyway.... There are some top 5 worthy OT's though so that would probably be the best move.

[Friction]

Going to be some serious competition for that coveted #1 pick. AZ, Cleveland, Buff, Hou, Oak, NYG. I think Oak and Hou will be out of contention sooner than the other 4 and Cleveland has been competitive to say the least the last couple of games. Go the NBA route and practice the tankapalooza, if you are not going to be a playoff team.

[Friction]

I forgot to add Detroit to that list, but man they are just massive underachievers.

[JoshGordonsDealer]

Mike Thomas has been in the same league as OBJ and Nuk for me for a while. He's not an athletic freak, but he's one of the best WRs from a route running/technique perspective that I've ever seen. The system and QB help, obviously, but he's not setting records for no reason.

So in my one redraft league we use Yahoo. I was so sad as Elliott was his last player playing and his td put the guy 1.5 points over me, and I had no one left. Then i wake up this morning and for some reason I am winning by .5 points. turns out they hadn't awarded Denver with the two points for blocking the extra point!

Fantasy football giveth and taketh away.

[Fantasyfanatic11]

Michael Thomas is on pace for 224 catches this season (which would break Marvin Harrison's record by 81)

[saw061600]

Really sucks that Howard can't catch...
