Granted Amerson is terrible, but did you guys see what Moncrief did to him on one of his TD receptions?

Amerson was in press-coverage, but Moncrief juked him so hard at the line of scrimmage that Amerson didn't even so much as touch him out of his release. So much for the 'press' in press-coverage.

Is Marqise Lee coming on strong and playing his way into the starting lineup for next year?
Definitely like what I saw from Moncrief, the effort on Fleener's TD should earn him kudos from the coaching staff and more playing time.
Hopkins looked great, he definitely needs to be seriously considered as a top-10 dynasty WR right now.

Patrick Peterson...


Continuing to prove he is one of the most overrated corners in the game.

Agreed. He's always been a guy with monster potential who puts it together for a few games at a time. I thought it was dumb when they took him off returns because that is a huge part of the impact he can make on a game, he's not always going to shut down WR's.

As an owner who owns more shares of Julio Jones than of any other WR, I definitely like it when Roddy White doesn't play. :)

While I believe that Roddy being out had something to do with it, I think it is more the fact that the Falcons are SO MUCH BETTER at home… It really is shocking at how dominant that offense is at home vs how porous they are on the road.

Will be very interesting to see how they do vs the Saints in the dome in a game that will most likely decide the division...

Julio has yet to get a jump ball thrown to him this entire year. Once again he got the sale slant screen look he always gets.

Douglas got way more redzone looks. I don't understand

See, I think it's the other way around. They do play better at home, but Julio has had plenty of games at home that aren't big games. He seems to always blow up when Roddy is out or is hobbled. Either way, I'll take it though.

CJ Anderson looks legit. He's not giving this job back unless he gets hurt. It's that simple.

Kendall Wright has the potential to be a great WR2 in PPR leagues. He runs one of the best slant/drag routes in the NFL.
Hopkins destroyed a good secondary, he is the real deal.


I have said this many times in the past few weeks but… Rob Gronkwoski is far and away the top fantasy TE. Graham gets blanked far too easily when teams game plan against him. Gronk, on the other hand, can't be game planed against. He has the best hands of all TE's and is by far the best at breaking tackles. It's time to put him in his own tier.

MAtt Ryan is just not a bright guy. If he was, he'd realize that throwing to Julio in the red zone instead of Hester will result in more points, and more points = wins. It's amazing to me that Mike Smith hasn't pulled Ryan aside and told him that. Week after week I see Matt Ryan throwing to Douglas or Hester in the red zone without even giving Julio a look. It's frustrating as a Julio owner, and it's actually amazing that it continues to happen. Julio gets them to the red zone today, then Matt Ryan doesn't even give him a look in the end zone. It happens every week.

I agree with this. Talent wise, Gronk has always been ahead of Graham for me, and I had Gronk ahead of Graham as the #1 TE in dynasty while they both were performing at elite levels a few years ago. It was the long list of injuries for Gronk combined with a massive amount of games missed over the past 2 seasons that made me drop Gronk below Graham. Seeing Graham continue to be constantly nicked up (though not as severe as Gronk's injuries) along with Gronk showing how much more dominant he is, has been enough for me to put Gronk back up to #1.

My team was crazy this week.

Mason + Hopkins = 84.2 points
Ellington + Watkins + Evans + Graham = 10.7 points

After decent showings from Matt Ryan, AJ, my kicker (Hauschka) and the Bills D, I'll probably still win anyway depending on how Sanders finishes the night. What a week.

I tend to agree with Colinsworth that Denver shifting their line is the heart of their running resurgence. It explains why they're doing well regardless of who's back there. This line wasn't playing like this the first few weeks

Nuk has cemented himself as a low end WR1 for dynasty purposes. kid is 22

apparently Evans floor is 4 and 50. Not bad. he is going to be a monster statistically when Jackson is gone

Agree with those saying CJ Anderson is clear cut lead dog in Denver and could win fantasy championships down the stretch
