Hawks are a train wreck, Packers arent what they were last year, and the Jags offense is hard to trust.
You have Aaron Jones on your team?

Far out. I would never have guessed!
Lame.

My take on Dillon has little to do with Jones, and everything to do with Lafleur and the Packers offense. Don't see why you're calling bias when I'm being critical of Jones here.

Just lazy from you.

All of them. I have a lot of depth this year, which is good because I'm dealing with so many injuries. So I'm half expecting to end up starting the wrong guys. I don't really trust my team, but again, part of that is I have numerous good options, especially at RB, and I'm sure I'll start the wrong guy

Russell Wilson (or Hurts)
Mixon
Swift
CEH
James Connor
Elijah Mitchell
DJ Moore
Marquise Brown
AJB (if he plays)
Godwin
Cooper
Gronk

Yikes. Trying not to overreact and say he's glued to my bench the rest of the year.

He should bounce back next week against Houston, but who knows with that coach.

Team A: I worry about Dalvin getting hurt in the middle of a playoff game. I also worry hugely about DK/Lockett of course

Team B: sadly the guy who worries me the most is Mahomes (especially since this league has very intricate QB scoring that penalizes you terribly for bad games)

In my redraft league I’m terrified. My WRs suck (Diontae is my only solid guy. After him it’s DJ Moore and then I stream my WR3)

My RBs look great on paper (Saquon, Swift, D Henderson, CEH) but of course we all know the various reasons why I may not be relying on them without big-time stress.
TEAM A - 12T (22 R/U, 20 R/U, 19 R/U, 18 Champ, 17 R/U)
HERBERT, Baker
BIJAN/KAMARA/MIXON, A Jones
HILL/AJB/DK/G WILSON/D Adams, Pittman, Z Flowers, Evans
KITTLE

TEAM B - 16T, SF, TEP (22 R/U)
HURTS/MINSHEW, Cousins, D Jones
JT/JACOBS, Mostert, Gus E
HILL/MCLAURIN/DEEBO
KELCE/KITTLE, LaPorta
/
TEAM D - 14T, 1QB (Joined in 22)
MAHOMES, Goff
BIJAN/BREECE, Pollard
CHASE/G WILSON/AIYUK/DJM, Pittman, Diggs
KITTLE, Goedert
/
TEAM E - 14T, SF, 2TE (Started in 22)
MAHOMES/T-LAW, Carr
BIJAN/CMC/SAQUON/BREECE, Pollard
HILL/AIYUK/EVANS/GODWIN, Hollywood, Thielen
MCBRIDE/ENGRAM, Goedert, Chig

TEAM G - 12T, SF & TEP (Joined in 23)
HERBERT/TUA, Kyler

Foodie. Mild sauce goes in the trash. Well done steak goes with it.

Habaneros make the best hot sauce. Throwing a bunch of random stuff on top of fries doesn't mean you call it "poutine".

I think you misread this. He's just making a joke because of the lengthy discussions about Dillon and Jones in the past. Everybody who frequents here knows you roster Jones because you and others have discussed the topic so much. He's not calling you out on bias at all. Just a friendly joke is how I read it.

It feels like that kind of year for me too. Making playoffs everywhere and everything seemingly falling apart. We shall see

Most of my starting lineup scares the hell out of me.

DK, DJ Moore, Hollywood (without Lamar), Hockenson, Kyle Pitts, Barkley, James Robinson....

Love those going forward, but it's looking like this isn't even my year to win the toilet bowl.

QB: Mahomes, Fields, Love
RB: Bijan, ETN, Pollard, Achane, Herbert
WR: Kupp, Hill, Metcalf, Ridley, Jeudy, D.J. M, Burks, Hollywood, Wan'Dale
TE: Kyle Pitts, Goedert

Russell Wilson - yup, me too
Josh Allen - dude can't keep taking the beatings and *not* disappoint in the FF playoffs can he?
Waller - health issues
Chubb - will be glorious hot and frigid cold. hope it's the former when I play him
Lenny - can he keep up this torrid pace when *I* need him in weeks 16 and 17?
Kupp - dude is good for 20, but the Rams are trying very hard to prop up OBJ, with kupp's volume as the currency.

Somehow survived my Burrow / Mixon / Chase stack!

In my other league, I'm benching Josh Allen for Hurts next week... Probably dumb, but Hurts vs Giants seems a lot better than Allen vs Pats

Hurts did throw 3 INT a month ago vs NYG. Total of 6 points.

Kamara anyone? Good thing I had a bye last week.
I’m considering starting Rojo instead. Miami can stop the run and Carolina can’t.
