The fix was in.

Damn that was way too close. Good game. I'm lucky to win it with so many screw ups - Edmonds/Conner/Pittman/Booker on the bench outperformed my starters, the only good choice I made was to play Goedert instead of Schultz. I did however trick you with Rams D/ST

My condolences to whomever in your guys league has Derrick Henry.  Sitting at my work desk yesterday morning and having breaking news pop up on my screen was like being stabbed in the heart lol.  Okay maybe not that extreme but that's a death blow essentially for someone in a 12 man team.  My team was stacked but a bit short on RBs, now this kills me.  Also lost Calvin Ridley over the weekend and that quite hurts too

It's fine, just grab Adrian Peterson. At this rate maybe OJ will come back too.

LOL.  Peterson is the second best running back I've ever seen ( behind Barry Sanders ) but I do believe his days are done.  I mean if he had anything left in the tank, I would imagine someone else would have already picked him up.  I am just curious how much action he'll get vs the other running backs already on the team like McNichols.  I guess we shall see.

standings.

AP replacing Henry's stats isn't gonna happen unfortunately.  No one will. 
With that being said giant gut wrencher there last night.  Giants lose by a field goal all the time.  I don't think I can watch another game this year so long as the game is under 7 points.  They need to learn how to start winning close games. 😡

Haha, I was thinking that but decided to go with the safer D even though I had a gut feeling about the titans that proved correct.

Edit: Looks like I got a Von Miller consolation prize!

It's official, bookies hate Packers. I could understand Cardinals odds but why are Chiefs the favorites now is a mystery to me.

NFL experts I have a question. The Cardinals was only -2 versus San Francisco and then it became -1 then the game was removed from the sportsbooks. Why did they do this? Have they discovered their mistake and Cardinals should be -7?

In any case, Aaron Rodgers has announced that he will be taking some of his salary in bitcoin through Cashapp. He very clearly is only sponsored by the company similar to Zap and Russell Okung.

#Packers QB Jordan Love, who the team drafted in the first round, will start against the #Chiefs. Rodgers out with COVID.

Also, Micheal Thomas, who you had on your IR stashed, is out for the season after supposedly picking up another injury...

That's a shame. We'll never know if Patrick Price or Rodgers Rate is better.

Also this is a bit of a headscratcher:

Despite telling reporters in August he'd "been immunized," Rodgers is not vaccinated against COVID-19

Yeah my other 2 league's I had Thomas stashed on those teams hoping to break him out for the second half of the season.  Lot of crazy injuries, arrests, sickness, personal leave, etc.  Gonna be survival of the fittest at the end of this season.

I guess I should have warned you guys that this was inevitable as I drafted him in all my leagues.

[nutildah]

fuck.

suddenly i'm having a mediocre year.

4-4 in both my leagues... Henry on IR (have him on both teams)

woo

The mystery on why the Cardinals are now presently becoming the underdog versus the 49ers has been answered. The coronavirus! A.J. Green is confirmed to have it and I speculate more players might be declared out for Sunday’s game. I made an early bet again on Cardinals -2 because I was afraid that it would change quickly to -3, -3.5. I pay again.

Yeah gonna be interesting as we get into the colder months who is in and who is out.  Not looking forward to tonight's game.  Hopefully it's not a complete snoozefest.  For some reason I just can't watch the jets play they are just that bad, they are almost as bad as my Giants 

Hopefully colts run all over them with Taylor:)

I watched quite a bit of the game last week and that White kid is legit.

To be fair a lot of quarterbacks who have sat behind someone and little to no tape is on does well in a one game sample.  But now that there is game film on him other teams d coordinators can key in on their strengths.  There usually is a reason why qbs like that don't see the field unless there are injuries.

The Colts are absolutely going to be running all over the Jets.  They are horrid vs the run.  I need to look up player props but I am positive that Taylor will run for 100+ yards and a TD.  I'll be traveling during the game but I will be praying for some good pts from Michael Carter now that he's in my starting lineup instead of Derrick Henry    I guess I can be thankful he's playing well of late.
