    Just how good is the Broncos Run Defence? Missed their game last week

    They looked good against Pittsburgh, but they lost Ty Warren for the season and could have some depth issues.

    Cheers, just got Michael Turner against them this weekend, and just trying to figure out whether I should keep him in to start after his poor showing against my KC side

    The year of the QB my a**. :mad:

    Have Rogers as my QB in 2 leagues - 10 points.
    Brady in another and Stafford in a fourth.

    Unless minor miracles happen, I'll go 0-4 this week.

    Not getting anything from these guys is killing me.

    Should have stuck with RB/WR in the first few rounds.

    That's what I said and now I have no RBs bar Donald Brown til week 5 or so and by then Spiller could well be the number 1 in the Bills backfield :(

    hopefully Forte will be back to being a great RB though or I could end up going 0-16 unless I manage to find a decent RB to pad my numbers each week

    Do Punt / Kick-off return yards count towards your WR score?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,129 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    No, usually any TD's count towards the DST team.

    Some leagues are setup differently though so it depends how the league is setup.

    Thanks, I'm guessing thats why Devin Hester is just sitting there unpicked.... Too good to be true. :)

    I have Cam as my QB1 and had RG3 on the bench for the last 2 weeks.

    I just made the following trade

    RG3 + Jamaal Charles for Shady McCoy and Matt Stafford.

    I'm sure i got the best of this taking my team and Charles situation into consideration. Thoughts?

    Yes you got the better of that trade, Shady is a much better upgrade on Charles. I'd go further and try to trade either Cam or Stafford (keep which one you personally prefer) for a QB2 and an upgrade at WR or TE, its pointless having either QB on the bench

    I feel your pain. I lost both Jackson and Forte too. I had Bush handcuffed. Missed out on Spiller by a few picks tho.

    Great trade.... Can make it even better by moving Stafford on too

    Who would you guys hold onto Green-Ellis or Stephen Jackson for the coming season?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,739 ✭✭✭johnmcdnl

    Does winning a NFL managed league count for anything because I picked up Spiller late enough in my NFL league and with Arian Foster I'm ripping **** up of late :p Highest points last week, and second highest projected this week - mind you team project highest is being projected almost 160 points so if that happens :o
    All the same can you claim kudos if you win an NFL league because that's one of my main fantasy aims is right now :cool:

    I was projected to get 150 last week. Ended up with only 115. I managed to win but I score 25 more than my projected score in the first week so I haven't a bull's notion what's gonna happen tonight.

    Green Ellis... He's getting the touches. Who knows what's goin on wit Jackson. Did he pick up a hamstring? If he's limited could b. Sharing with Richardson for next couple of weeks who looked really good v Washington. If your keeping Jackson pick up Richardson

    Anyone have an opinion on which would be the better fantasy start this week?
    Seahawks D/ST or Bills D/ST?
    Seahawks have done me well so far, and it'll be tough for the Pack visiting them but I still think Rodgers will do well so I'm not too sure what to go for....

    Well the Bills are facing Cleveland, who would you rather have your defence face, The Browns or the Packers? I'd probably play the Bills, but only this week :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,416 ✭✭✭Jimmy Iovine


    Should I go for Gonzalez or Martellus Bennet at TE this week?

    I have a feeling both defenses leave him with a damned if you do damned if you dont type situation. I can see Richardson absolutely raping the Bills defense. Bills defense have already given up 134 yard avg per game so far. For what its worth the Seahags are 12th best team against the Pass but the Cardinals and Cowgirls are no Packers when it comes to throwing the ball around.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,144 ✭✭✭Benny Cake


    Ben Tate or Deangelo Williams this week?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,416 ✭✭✭Jimmy Iovine


    Should I go for Gonzalez or Martellus Bennet at TE this week?

    Went for Bennet and it worked out so far. 73 yards and a TD for a decent enough 13.30.

    Happy enough with it. Gonzalez will probably now go and score twice as much but **** it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 360 ✭✭CJC86


    Can someone explain to me why Antonio Brown's fumble and recovery for a TD counts as a passing TD for Roethlisberger?

    Having seen Charles in action yesterday against the Saints, that trade might not be as in your favour as you might think (although to be fair, when you made the trade it did seem a good one, hindsight n all that)
