What a game by the Bears last night!  Don't get me wrong, I know they aren't all of a sudden some great team, but the progress of Justin Fields has looked very real over these past two games.  I mean he looks like a different quarterback all together.  I've always maintained that he has the skill set to be great, he just needed to put it all together. 

I give them props for a more aggressive offensive strategy, and can't wait to see how this plays out over the rest of the year.

Good news for my team! Cooper Kupp was activated by Sean McVay and declared will play vs. the Eagles for week 5. I will take the risk and play him hehehe. There are speculations that his hamstring is not 100% because Sean McVay mentioned Kupp will play assuming nothing will happen in the next 48 hours.



Cooper Kupp will make his season debut on Sunday when the Rams host the Eagles, as long as he doesn’t have any setbacks between now and kickoff. That’s what Sean McVay told reporters on Friday, confirming that Kupp will play this weekend after missing the first four games.

I think they will use Puka Nacua mostly and Kupp as a decoy. I'm glad to see the guy back, but I doubt the Rams want to risk reinjuring the guy and losing him for the whole season.

I'm banking on Chicago winning more games than the giants if you know what I mean   now I need the panthers and Cardinals to win a couple.

And Taylor back on the field with a fresh new contract.  I wonder how quickly they are gonna bump Zach moss and give him the keys to the backfield.  I need jt to be good badly lol.  My team has shit the bed so far

Let us wish that Sean McVay will use him as a decoy until the ball is on 1st down and goal where he will be thrown the passes for chance of touchdown hehe. But it appears that this will not be a big risk for my team on week 5 because my other wide receivers are very much worse than Kupp with one hamstring hehhehee.

Yea, you're most likely fine. Kupp is 1 of the best in the game right now and probably wouldn't risk playing if he was injured. They're playing Philly which will be a physical game, pretty sure McVay would not play him if he wasn't feeling near 100%.

Good luck this weekend.

[bbc.reporter]

Hehe thank you and good luck to you. Also, good luck to Cooper Kupp and his hamstring hehehehe!

Bunch of good games on the ticket today.  So far I got these in what do ya'll think:

Rams +4 at home against eagles
49ers -3.5 at home against cowboys
Minnesota +3.5 at home against the cheifs
Lions -9 home against Carolina

Looking at some other games but got those locked in.

Back off, I want that mf first pick damnt!! lol.  That being said we also get the Carolina Panthers first pick and they are pretty god damn bad two, so I've got two shots at Caleb and I want both of them to hit as close to last place as possible.  Yeah that means rooting against my own team but whatever, I want a generational quarterback. 

That all said, Fields is starting to look special! Let's see how that continues to play out.

[South Park]

Also, you got Cole Kmet from the waiver wire after I dropped him. I regret this heheheh. The replacement is Kyle Pitts. The Hawks have a very bad quarterback who will not pass the ball to him.

It was accidental that I got him, in fact I wanted to add TE Luke Musgrave but I had to wait until next week so I just grabbed the next best TE available, and this week I was targeting TE Zach Ertz, however after the great performance Kmet gave last week I simply gave up on the idea and kept the guy and Kmet gave another good performance, but personally I would be fine with a TE that simply gave me 4 to 5 points per game in a regular basis, so I suppose I will keep Kmet for as long as possible.

Don't know if you caught any of that giants game but it's gonna be pretty tough to win the first pick over them playing like that lol.  That carolina pick is gonna come in handy they suck just as bad.  I just can't see the giants winning any games the way they are playing.  Knowing them they will win just enough to fall out of the elite draft pick spots lol.

It appears that Saquon will be starting his own drama with the Giants after this season hehehe. However yes, he should fight for his value as a player and have more than enough to retire from the game comfortably.

He should hire Lamar to be his agent hehehehehee.

On my team, my 3 most important players did not create the points needed to have a chance against Hhampuz. Pollard, Henry and James Cook made a total of only 17.50 points. Cooper Kupp made more than the 3 of them with 17.80 hehehe.

[nutildah]

Most points of the week goes to... me



Achane proved to be the best of my 3 rookie drafts. Miami has been on fire this year and its looking like they'll go to the playoffs.

I thought this was kind of interesting, it suggests that Kansas City is almost a playoff certainty, which is kind of what was expected at the beginning of the season, but the rest of their season schedule pretty much secures it:

Looks more like Steve Harvey the night he found out Family Feud was getting cancelled.

The #Vikings plan to place WR Justin Jefferson on injured reserve because of the hamstring injury he suffered in Sunday’s loss to Kansas City, per sources.

The exact timeline is TBD based on how he responds to treatment. But Jefferson is out at least four games.

It's JJover! Nice playing with you all, we try again next year. 

What a shit turnaround of events! It doesn't help that the Vikings are such cunts this early in the season. Best-case scenario, they'd be 3-6 after the next four games. Jettas ain't sniffing another game rest of the season. I don't see it.

Three of the five teams Moon Coiners have faced thus far have scored less than 100 points (the highest being 107). I guess i'll need some of that sorcery going forward cuz i ain't winning another shootout, certainly not without Jefferson. My last three opponents: 130, 123, 130.

Not happy to hear that for you. Looks like it continues that a few of the fantasy monsters geht injured pretty quick these season. Ask ChiBitCTy... I guess he had the same feeling when he lost Chubb for the rest of the season.

On the other side it might be pretty useful for me since I am 1-4 right now.
If I remember correct you are the "New England Potatoes" and we should meet once again. I hope I can get my revenge from GW1 then.

Yeah but I lost Chubb for the season, I'm not sure Jetta is out for the entire year or just for a couple games? I saw the news this morning about him and Achane, tough blow for owners.  Nobody understands injuries more than this mofo here let me tell ya lol.

I'm also a big fat you know what.  I'm at about a 75% win clip for my bets this year.  Problem is I'm too much of a ...you know, to put some bigger money down.  Here's my last bet sheets ( I later bet on the ML for SF..which was stupid because I didn't bet enough or the spread like I should have/normally do..

You can still do it, you just have to find a way to make it work, Ekeler has been out for four weeks but it seems he is going to make a return on week 6, and this really put me in a lot of trouble as I had to figure out what to do with the RB position on my team, but thanks to some luck I was able to go 2-2 during that span, and now that he is returning I have hopes that despite being the worst 3-2 team I still hold some chances to make it to the playoffs.

I got the same thing.  Score a ton of points but can't snag a win.  Injuries are brutal saquon has been killing me all year.  I have jettas in my other league.  I guess we can't complain seems like everyone is getting the injury bug.  Right now it seems cmc and hill were the picks to be had.

My team is ready vs. Hueristic's Barbarians! I predict this to be an upset because the Patiots defense will for certain stop Josh Jacob. The defensive team has kneeled in front of Bill Belichick and promised never to repeat their very embarassing performance against the Saints, according to sauces.
